5.5 Fault Detection
214 YASKAWA TM.V1000.01 V1000 Drive Installation & Start-Up Manual (Preliminary 01-19-07)
Cause Possible Solution
Surrounding temperature is too hot.
• Check the temperature surrounding the drive.
• Improve the air circulation within the enclosure panel.
• Install a fan or air conditioner to cool the surrounding area.
• Remove anything near the drive that might be producing excessive heat.
Load is too heavy.
• Measure the output current.
• Reduce the load.
• Lower the carrier frequency (C6-02).
The internal cooling fan has reached
its performance life or has
malfunctioned.
• Check the maintenance time for the cooling fan (U4-04).
• If U4-04 exceeds 90%, replace the cooling fan. Refer to Cooling Fan
Replacement on page 278.
• When the fan has been replaced, reset the fan maintenance time
(o4-03 = “0”).
Airflow is restricted to the cooling
fan.
• Provide the proper installation space around the drive as indicated in the
manual. Refer to Correct Installation Spacing on page 40.
• Allow for the specified space and ensure there is sufficient circulation around
the control panel.
• Check for dust or foreign materials that may have clogged the cooling fan.
• Clear out debris caught in the fan that inhibits air circulation.

Motor Overheat Alarm (PTC Input)
• The motor overheat signal to analog input terminal A1 or A2 exceeded the
alarm detection level.
• Detection requires multi-function analog input H3-02 or H3-10 be set to “E”.
Cause Possible Solution
Motor has overheated.
• Check the size of the load, the accel/decel times and the cycle times.
• Decrease the load.
• Increase the acceleration and deceleration times (C1-01 through C1-08).
Motor has overheated.
• Adjust the preset V/f pattern (E1-04 through E1-10). This will mainly involve
reducing E1-08 and E1-10.
• Be careful not to lower E1-08 and E1-10 excessively, as this reduces load
tolerance at low speeds.
Motor has overheated.
• Check the motor-rated current.
• Enter the motor-rated current as indicated on the motor nameplate (E2-01).
• Ensure the motor cooling system is operating normally.
• Repair or replace the motor cooling system.

Motor Overheat Fault (PTC Input)
• The motor overheat signal to analog input terminal A1 or A2 exceeded the
alarm detection level.
• Detection requires that multi-function analog input H3-02 or
