6 FAULTS

Fault (display)

Description

IOC

Instantaneous Over Current
-

Current has reached a value of 1000% of stack size

-

Usually a short circuit on the output or misfiring of SCR’s

-

This fault cannot be disabled

MTR OVRLD

Motor Thermal Overload (calculated)
-

motor has been drawing over 100% of motor nameplate current
for a specified amount of time based on the class of overload
selected in group 15 parameter 2

-

after this fault has occurred the Opal Pro will not allow a reset
for approx. 6 minutes (this is to allow the motor to cool down)

-

this fault can be disabled in group 15 parameter 2

PHASE LOSS

Incoming Phase Loss
-

one of the incoming phases is missing or abnormally low

-

phase voltages can be read in group 1 parameters 2, 3, and 4

-

this fault will not be triggered until the motor is commanded to
start

-

this fault cannot be disabled

SHEAR PIN

Excessive Motor Current While Running
-

if the Opal Pro is phased fully on and the motor is up to speed
this fault will be triggered if the current goes above 300%

-

this fault can be disabled in group 15 parameter 1

SHORTED SCR

Shorted SCR Fault
-

this fault will not be triggered until the motor is commanded to
start

-

this fault cannot be disabled

HEAT SINK OT

Heat Sink Over Temperature
-

One of three temperature switches mounted on the heat sink has
been triggered

-

These switches trigger at approx. 85 degrees Celsius

-

The switches are only mounted on units which include fans

-

This fault cannot be disabled

COMM FLT

Communication Fault
-

a loss of communication between the Opal Pro and the master
device has been detected based on a watch dog bit that is sent
back an forth

-

this fault is disabled when no communication cards are installed
on the Opal Pro

-

this fault can also be disabled in group 15 parameter 3

-

the time delay for the watch dog bit can be set in group 15
parameter 4

POWERING UP

Power Up Sequence
-

the Opal Pro will be faulted for the first 6 seconds after the
120VAC control power is applied

-

this allows time for everything to initialize and then a fault reset
is automatically applied at the end of the 6 seconds
