PUMP VMN HIGH
Kone · Elevator Control
What does 1029 mean?
The Pump Motor Controller (codes 1029, 2029, 3029) has detected that its VMN (motor voltage) is too high. This indicates an overvoltage condition for the pump motor. The specific lift reaction is controller dependent.
Common Causes
- Overvoltage condition on the battery supply.
- Issue with regenerative braking causing voltage spikes.
- Internal power supply fault within the pump motor controller.
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
Measure the incoming main supply voltage at the motor controller input terminals against the system's nominal voltage specification.
- 2
Verify the motor controller's configured parameters for motor nominal voltage, voltage output limits, and acceleration/deceleration ramps.
- 3
Inspect all motor power cabling and connections between the controller and the pump motor for damage, insulation integrity, and secure termination.
- 4
Monitor the actual motor voltage (VMN) value via the controller's diagnostic interface and compare it against the motor's nominal voltage.
- 5
Check the integrity and connections of external braking resistors or regenerative units, if installed, as faults can contribute to overvoltage conditions.
