08490000
Overcurrent Error
Omron · NJ/NX-series Machine Automation Controller
What does 08490000 mean?
The current drawn by the motor has surpassed a predetermined protection threshold, indicating an excessive load or electrical anomaly within the motor or its wiring. This can cause damage to the motor or drive.
Common Causes
- Short-circuit, ground fault, or contact failure on motor cables U, V, or W
- Short-circuit on the wiring of the External Regeneration Resistor
- Insulation breakdown between motor cables U, V, W and motor ground wire
- False overcurrent detection due to electrical noise
- Internal Servo Drive failure
Repair Steps & Checklist
Click steps to track your progress.
- 1
Measure insulation resistance between motor phases U-V, V-W, U-W, and between each phase (U, V, W) and motor ground. Expect values >1 MΩ.
- 2
Visually inspect motor cables U, V, W and their connections for signs of short-circuit, ground fault, or contact failure.
- 3
Inspect the wiring of the External Regeneration Resistor for any short-circuits.
- 4
Verify proper grounding and shielding of the Servo Drive and motor cables to mitigate noise.
