List of Fault Messages (F) and Warning Messages (AL)
Notes
There are subcodes associated with this error. To get the subcode scroll to the M (minute) value within the fault menu. The value listed is the subcode.
Power software V018 IGBT overtemperature. Power software V019 heat sink overtemperature.
Display Designation Possible Cause Instructions
01 Overcurrent The frequency inverter has detected an excessive
current (> 4 x I
N
) in the motor cable
Sudden load increase
Short circuit in motor cable
Inadequate motor
Check the load
Check the motor size
Check the cable
(See parameter P6.6)
02 Overvoltage The DC intermediate circuit voltage has exceeded the
internal safety limit
The delay time is too short
High overvoltage peaks in line power
Increase braking time
03 Ground fault An additional leakage current was detected when
starting by means of a current measurement
Insulation fault in the cables or in the motor
Check the motor cable and the motor
08 System fault CPU error message
Internal communication fault
Reset error: Switch input voltage off and on (restart)
If the fault occurs again, contact your local representative
09 Undervoltage The DC intermediate circuit voltage has exceeded
the internal safety limit
Probable cause:
The supply voltage is too low
Internal device fault
Power failure
If a brief power failure takes place, reset the fault and restart
the frequency inverter
Check the supply voltage. If it is okay, there is an internal fault
If this is the case, contact your local representative
13 Undertemperature The IGBT switch temperature is below 14°F (–10°C) Check the ambient temperature
14
Overtemperature The IGBT switch temperature is above 248°F (120°C)
An excessive temperature warning is issued if the
IGBT switch temperature goes above 230°F (110°C)
Make sure that there is an unobstructed flow of cooling air
Check the ambient temperature
Make sure that the switching frequency is not too high in
relation to the ambient temperature and to the motor load
15 Motor stalled The motor blocking protection mechanism has been
triggered
Check the motor
16 Motor
overtemperature
The frequency inverter’s motor temperature model
has detected motor overheating. The motor is
overloaded
Decrease the motor load
If the motor is not overloaded, check the temperature model
parameter
17 Motor underload Motor idle, connection to load machine interrupted
(for example, torn drive belt)
This function must be activated at P8.5. The overload
message is set at P8.12 and P8.13
22 EEPROM checksum
error
Error when storing parameters
Malfunction
Component fault
Error in microprocessor monitoring
Contact your local Eaton representative
25 Watchdog (API) Error in microprocessor monitoring
Malfunction
Component fault
Reset the fault and restart
If the fault occurs again, contact your local representative
27 Back EMF Electromotive force
The voltage induced in the motor with the rotation
is greater than the output voltage of the frequency
inverter
The rotation energy is greater than the braking energy
Lengthen deceleration times
Switch on brake chopper and braking resistor
Use higher rated frequency inverters
35 Application error The application is not working Contact your local Eaton representative
41 IGBT overtemp The IGBT switch temperature is above 248°F (120°C)
An excessive temperature warning is issued if the
IGBT switch temperature goes above 230°F (110°C)
Make sure that there is an unobstructed flow of cooling air
Check the ambient temperature
Make sure that the switching frequency is not too high in
relation to the ambient temperature and to the motor load
