Warning/Alarm

Description

Cause

Remedy

24 — External fan fault

The fan warning function checks if the 

fan is running. The fan warning can be 

disabled on [14– 53] Fan Monitor.

Check for proper fan operation. 
Cycle power to the frequency 

converter and check that the fan 

operates briefly at startup.
Check the sensors on the heatsink 

and control card.

25 — Brake resistor short 

circuit

The brake resistor is monitored during 

operation. If a short circuit occurs, 

the brake function is disabled and 

the warning appears. The frequency 

converter is still operational but 

without the brake function.

Remove power to the frequency 

converter and replace the brake 

resistor (see [2–15] Brake Check).

26 — Brake resistor power 

limit

The power transmitted to the brake 

resistor is calculated as a mean value 

over the last 120 seconds of run 

time. The calculation is based on the 

intermediate circuit voltage and the 

brake resistance value set in [2–16] 

brake Max. Current.

The warning is active when the 

dissipated braking is higher 

than 90% of the brake resistance 

power.
If Trip [2] is selected in [2–13] 

Brake Power Monitoring, the 

frequency converter will trip 

when the dissipated braking 

power reaches 100%.

27 — Brake chopper fault

The brake transistor is monitored 

during operation and if a short circuit 

occurs, the brake function is disabled 

and a warning is issued.

The frequency converter is still 

operational but, since the brake 

transistor has short-circuited, 

substantial power is transmitted 

to the brake resistor, even if it is 

inactive.

Remove power to the frequency 

converter and remove the brake 

resistor.

28 — Brake check failed

The brake resistor is not connected or 

not working.

Check [2–15] Brake Check.

29 — Heatsink temp

The maximum temperature of the 

heatsink has been exceeded. The 

temperature fault will not reset until 

the temperature falls below the 

reset heatsink temperature. The trip 

and reset points are based on the 

frequency converter power size.

Check for the following conditions:
• Ambient temperature too high.
• Motor cable too long.
• Incorrect airflow clearance above 

and below the frequency converter.

• Blocked airflow around the 

frequency converter.

• Damaged heatsink fan.
• Dirty heatsink.

30 — Motor phase U 

missing

Motor phase U between the frequency 

converter and the motor is missing.

Remove power from the frequency 

converter and check motor phase U.

31 — Motor phase V 

missing

Motor phase V between the frequency 

converter and the motor is missing.

Remove power from the frequency 

converter and check motor phase V.

32 — Motor phase W 

missing

Motor phase W between the frequency 

converter and the motor is missing.

Remove power from the frequency 

converter and check motor phase W.

33 — Inrush fault

Too many power-ups have occurred 

within a short time period.

Let the unit cool to operating 

temperature.

34 — Fieldbus 

communication fault

Communication between the fieldbus 

and the communication option card is 

not operating.
