oL5

Mechanical Weakening Detection 1

Yaskawa · V1000 AC Drive

What does oL5 mean?

The drive detected overtorque conditions consistent with mechanical weakening or fatigue, as defined by the settings in L6-08 [Mechanical Fatigue Detect Select]. This fault indicates potential degradation of crucial machine components, such as bearings or gearboxes. If ignored, this could lead to catastrophic mechanical failure and significant downtime.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Conduct a thorough deterioration diagnostic test on the machine side, focusing on components prone to wear and fatigue.

  2. 2

    Replace any identified weakened or failing mechanical components to prevent further damage.

  3. 3

    Perform a Fault Reset to clear the fault from the drive after maintenance.
