8.4 Faults and remedial actions of the 3RW55 soft starter
SIRIUS 3RW55 soft starter
180 Manual, 08/2018, A5E35630887002A/RS-AB/002
Additional tripping in the case of asymmetry
Above threshold I The current has exceeded a limit. Check the application driven by the
motor.
The current has undershot a limit.
Current fault limit disconnection Additional tripping in the event of a current
fault limit overshoot or undershoot.
-
Ground fault The ground-fault monitoring has responded.
An impermissibly high residual current is
Check the connecting cable of the
motor for damage.
Electronics supply voltage too low The supply voltage is below the permitted
Check the power supply (load rating,
Bus error Fault in the fieldbus communication.

-
Process image error The process image output (PIQ) contains
invalid control bit combinations (e.g. control
bits for clockwise and counter-clockwise
rotation are set at the same time).
Check and correct the process image
output (PIQ).
Parameter fault The module is not or is incorrectly
parameterized or parameterization changes
are denied in current operating mode.
• Correct and execute
parameterization.
• Switch the operating mode and
repeat parameterization.
Missing startup parameters Necessary startup data for the device are
Check parameterization or startup data
Device error Unrecoverable error detected after internal
diagnostics (self-test, contactor contacts,
switching element, etc.).
Replace the device.
Module slot wrong or configuration
Real and configured slot of module is
Ensure consistency between plugged
Motor connection variant unknown
The motor connection variant was not
recognized or is different from configuration.
Ensure correct connection.
Zero current after ON command No current flow is detected after the motor
feeder is switched on. Possible causes:
• Main circuit interrupted (fuse, circuit
breaker)
• Motor contactor or contactor control is
defective
• The parameter execution time is too short
• No load
-
Phase failure
• L1
• L2
• L3
The main power monitoring detects a phase
failure.
-
Overvoltage The supply voltage is above the tolerance
Change the power supply.
Bypass defective - Check bypasses for L1, L2 and L3 and
replace defective bypasses.
