    Why does my SEW-Eurodrive DFY 71L/B motor overheat?
    • N
      Norma WilcoxAug 14, 2025
      Your SEW-Eurodrive Engine motor may overheat due to several reasons: * Overload: Check the load with the controller current and configuration data. * Inadequate cooling: Adjust the cooling air supply or clear any blockages. Consider fitting a forced cooling fan. * Forced cooling fan not operating: Check the fan's connection and correct it if necessary. * Ambient temperature too high: Reduce the power. * Selected duty exceeded: Match the motor duty to the required operating conditions. Expert advice is recommended for selecting the correct drive. * Servo controller not optimized: Check the servo controller.
