Speed monitoring fault (n-monitoring)
SEW Eurodrive · MOVIDRIVE compact System
What does 08 mean?
The speed or current controller is operating at its setting limit, indicating either a mechanical overload, a phase failure in the power supply or motor, or an incorrectly connected/configured encoder. This fault suggests the motor is not behaving as commanded, leading to an immediate shutdown.
Complete Troubleshooting Guide
- 1
Reduce the mechanical load applied to the motor to bring operation within specifications.
- 2
Increase the deceleration time settings (P501 or P503) to allow for smoother transitions and prevent limit overruns.
- 3
Check the encoder connection for correctness; if applicable, swap A/A and B/B pairs and verify encoder voltage supply.
- 4
Inspect the motor cable and the motor itself for any damage, and verify all mains phases are present and balanced.
