26050

Fault in brake resistor, KPP/KSP (axis)

Kuka · KR C4 Operating Instructions

What does 26050 mean?

The KPP has detected an error within the ballast circuit, which includes the brake resistor. This indicates a problem with the energy dissipation system responsible for braking the motor, potentially leading to uncontrolled deceleration.

Common Causes

  • The braking resistor associated with the KPP/KSP drive is faulty or shorted.
  • Brake resistor temperature sensor failure.
  • Overload current flowing through the brake resistor.
  • Incorrect wiring of the brake resistor.
  • KPP/KSP control logic fault related to braking.

Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Check the ballast resistor for physical damage, an open circuit, or an incorrect resistance value using a multimeter.

  2. 2

    Check the cabling between the KPP and the ballast resistor for continuity, short circuits, and proper connections.

  3. 3

    Reinitialize the drive bus by performing a Power Off / Power On cycle of the entire system.

  4. 4

    Check the KPP module itself for internal faults if the ballast circuit components are verified correct.
