InFA
Input Phase Loss Circuit Error
Schneider Electric · Altivar Machine ATV320 Variable Speed Drive
What does InFA mean?
A detected error in the input phase loss circuit. This indicates a problem with the drive's internal sensing of the incoming mains voltage phases, which is crucial for detecting power supply issues. This fault may falsely indicate a phase loss or miss a real one, impacting drive protection.
Common Causes
- Loss of one or more input phases detected by the drive's monitoring circuit.
- Loose connection on the main power input terminals (L1, L2, L3).
- Failure of a phase monitoring component within the drive.
- Motor winding fault causing uneven phase currents.
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
Verify that all incoming three-phase power connections to the drive are secure and correct.
- 2
Check incoming mains voltage for stability and balance across all phases.
- 3
Power cycle the drive to reset the internal sensing logic.
- 4
If the fault persists, it indicates an internal hardware issue with the input phase detection circuit, requiring repair or replacement.
