Current Limit Exceeded

What does 44 mean?

This error is generated if the drive operates at its adjustable current limit for longer than 500 ms, occurring when additional function 2 (adjustable current limitation) is active and the operating frequency is above 15 Hz. Prolonged operation at current limit can indicate an overloaded condition.

• Drive operating at the current limit for longer than 500 ms.
• Adjustable current limit set too low via DIP switch f2 (Imax [%] of IN).
• Excessive load on the drive when the monitoring function is active (above 15 Hz).

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Check the mechanical load on the drive and reduce it if necessary.

2. 2

   Review the setting of DIP switch f2 for the adjustable current limit (Imax [%] of IN) and increase it if appropriate for the application.

3. 3

   Verify the operating frequency is above 15 Hz, as this monitoring function is active only then.

4. 4

   Reset the fault by switching off and then switching on the DC 24V supply voltage.

5. 5

   Reset the error via the error reset function.
