F07016

Drive: Motor temperature sensor fault

Siemens · SINAMICS G120C Variable Speed Drive

What does F07016 mean?

An error has been detected in the evaluation of the motor temperature sensor configured in p0601. This could be due to a wire breakage, the sensor being disconnected (e.g., KTY resistance > 2120 Ohm), or the measured resistance being too low (e.g., PTC resistance < 20 Ohm, KTY resistance < 50 Ohm). The fault causes an OFF1 reaction and prevents proper motor temperature monitoring, risking motor damage from overheating if not resolved.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Ensure the motor temperature sensor is connected correctly and securely.

  2. 2

    Verify the parameterization of the motor temperature sensor type (p0601) matches the installed sensor.
