Overcurrent

Vacon · 100 FLOW Application

What does 1 mean?

The motor cable current exceeds the hardware or software limits (>4*I H). This can be caused by a sudden heavy load increase, a short circuit in the motor cables, an incorrectly matched motor type, or improper parameter settings. If left unresolved, it can damage the motor or drive components.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Check the loading conditions on the motor; reduce if excessive.

  2. 2

    Inspect the motor type and ensure it is compatible with the drive ratings.

  3. 3

    Examine the motor cables and connections for any short circuits or damage.

  4. 4

    Perform an identification run to correctly parameterize the motor.

  5. 5

    Increase the acceleration time (P3.4.1.2 and P3.4.2.2) to reduce current peaks during startup.
