DC overvoltage

What does 7 mean?

If the DC-link voltage exceeds a specific limit, the frequency converter will trip after a certain time delay. This typically occurs due to regenerative energy from the motor during deceleration or an issue with the mains supply.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Connect a brake resistor if not already present, or verify the existing brake resistor is correctly sized and functioning.

  2. 2

    Extend the ramp-down time to reduce the rate of regenerative energy feedback.

  3. 3

    Activate or adjust functions in parameter 2-10 Brake Function.

  4. 4

    If the alarm/warning occurs during a power sag, enable kinetic back-up via parameter 14-10 Mains Failure.
