Adjustable current limitation exceeded

What does 44 mean?

The drive has operated at its set current limit for longer than 500 ms when additional function 2 (adjustable current limitation) is active and the monitoring function is in effect (above 15 Hz). This indicates the motor is drawing too much current.

• Drive operating at the current limit for more than 500 ms while additional function 2 (adjustable current limitation) is active and monitoring is enabled (above 15 Hz)
• Current limit setting (Imax % of IN) via switch f2 on S2 is too low for the application's load

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Check the current limit setting using switch f2 on S2 (detent settings 0-10 correspond to 90-160% of IN) and adjust if appropriate for the application

2. 2

   Reduce the load on the drive to prevent current limit activation

3. 3

   Verify the minimum frequency (2 Hz for RS-485 control) and setpoint f2 (5 Hz for binary control) are correctly configured
