15

Motor stalled

Vacon · NX All-in-One Application

What does 15 mean?

The motor has stalled, meaning it is commanded to run but is not rotating, or its speed is significantly below commanded speed due to excessive load. This can result from mechanical binding, an overloaded application, or an issue within the motor itself. Sustained stalling can cause severe motor overheating and damage.

Additional Steps

Steps 1–2 are listed in Priority Fix.

  1. 3

    Monitor the motor's current draw during an attempted start or run cycle — compare it to the motor's nameplate Full Load Amps (FLA) and the drive's current limit settings.
