6 Protective Function

6-1

List of protective functions

When the protective function is activated, drive output is instantly cut off (while the motor coasts until it is

stopped), and an alarm is issued, and the details of the alarm are displayed on the keypad panel.

Contents of operation

OC1

During acceleration

OC2

During deceleration

Overcurrent

OC3

While running at
constant speed

If the drive output current momentarily exceeds the over-

current detection level because of an overcurrent in the

motor or the short-circuit in the output circuit, the output is

shut down, an alarm is issued, and the drive is tripped.

OU1

During acceleration

OU2

During deceleration

Overvoltage

OU3

While running at
constant speed

If the DC voltage of the main circuit exceeds the overvolt-
age detection level because of an increase in the regenerat-
ing current from the motor, etc., output is shut down, an
alarm is issued, and the drive is tripped. However, protec-
tion against inadvertent overvoltage loading (e.g., high-
voltage line) might not be provided.

Undervoltage

LU

If the DC voltage of the main circuit falls below the undervoltage detection level

because of a lowered power supply, output is shut down to protect the drive. If the

restart function after momentary power failure is not activated, an alarm is issued

and the drive is tripped.

If the restart function is activated, the drive restarts automatically with no alarm.

For further details of the protective function, refer to the descriptions of Function

F14.

Overheating of
heat sink

OH1

If the temperature of the heat sink used for cooling the rectifier diodes and IGBTs

rises because of cooling fan failure, etc., protective function is activated to stop

operation, an alarm is issued, and the drive is tripped.

External Alarm

OH2

If the control circuit terminal THR (functional change of X1 to X3 terminals) is

set to OFF, an alarm is issued and the drive is tripped.

Motor overload

OL

If the motor current exceeds the operating level set by the electronic thermal O/L

relay, output is shut down to protect the motor, an alarm is issued, and the drive is

tripped.

Drive overload

OLU

If the output current exceeds the drive rated overload current, output is shut down,

an alarm is issued, and the drive is tripped.
