Ixt Utilization Too High
SEW Eurodrive · MOVIFIT SC
What does 44 mean?
This fault indicates that the combined output current from both drive 1 and drive 2 has exceeded 180% of the unit's nominal current (IN,unit). This represents a severe overload condition, potentially leading to immediate shutdown to protect the power electronics and prevent damage to the MOVIFIT unit. It can be caused by excessive mechanical load or by simultaneously enabling both drives when their combined current draw exceeds the unit's capacity. Unresolved, this can lead to premature failure of the drive unit.
Complete Troubleshooting Guide
- 1
Significantly reduce the mechanical load on both connected drives, reviewing the application for any binding or over-sizing issues.
- 2
Avoid enabling both drives simultaneously if their combined current draw is known to exceed the unit's 180% IN,unit threshold.
- 3
Review the application's current demands and ensure the MOVIFIT unit is correctly sized for the peak current requirements of both drives operating together.
