PowerFlex® 755 with OEM Liquid Cooling Frame 6 and 7 AC Drives

Understanding Drive Faults
8 and 168

All drive fault and alarm descriptions for standard air-cooled drives shown in the
PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Programming Manual (publication 750-
PM001) also apply to the PowerFlex 755 with OEM Liquid Cooling Frame 6
and 7 AC drives—except for Faults 8 and 168. Both the standard air-cooled
drives and liquid-cooled drives use these faults, but they operate somewhat
differently for liquid-cooled drives. See

Table 2

for details.

Fault Text

Type

Description/Action

8

Heatsink OvrTemp

Resettable
Fault

The heatsink temperature has exceeded 100% of the drive
temperature. Heatsink over temperature occurs at 85 °C.
This value is stored in drive firmware.

168

HeatSinkUnderTmp

Resettable
Fault

Heatsink temperature sensor is reporting a value below
-18.7 °C (-1.66 °F) or an open thermal switch. Causes
include:

1. Air or coolant temperature is excessively cold; raise

temperature of drive.

2. DC inductor is over temperature and thermal

switch is open; check for blocked or failed power
structure fan.

3. Sensor feedback circuit is open; see
