OCF
Overcurrent
Schneider Electric · ALTIVAR 28 Variable Speed Drive
What does OCF mean?
This fault indicates an overcurrent condition in the drive controller, often caused by a ramp that is too short, excessive inertia or load, or a mechanical obstruction affecting the motor. If unresolved, this can lead to severe damage to the motor or the drive's power components.
Complete Troubleshooting Guide
- 1
Review and adjust the drive's acceleration/deceleration ramp settings to a longer duration if the application allows.
- 2
Verify the sizing of the motor, drive controller, and mechanical load to ensure they are compatible and not exceeding operational limits.
- 3
Inspect the mechanical system for any binding, seizing, or blockages that could cause the motor to draw excessive current.
