NO WATER
(DRY RUN COSPHI)
Motor cosphi is lower than the set value of
dry running cosphi

Check if the pump is primed

Check the set value of dry running cosphi.
Dry running cosphi is approximately 60% of
the rated cosphi (at rated frequency) listed
on the motor plate.
If pump’s cosphi is lower than the set dry-
running cosphi for at least 2 seconds, IPFC stops
the pump. IPFC tries to run the pump every
10, 20, 40, 80, 160 minutes and then the pump
is stopped.
WARNING: if dry running protection occurs,
IPFC will try to start the pump automatically. Be
sure to cut power supply to IPFC before
performing any maintenance.

of 101% of nominal and for 1 minute with
an output current of 110% of nominal

Increase the ramp-up time

Make sure that the load current is at least
10% below the IPFC nominal current

Check the voltage drop along the supply
cable to the motor
