Converter (Port 11) Faults
and Alarms (Frame 8 and
Larger)

The table below contains a list of Converter-specific faults and alarms, the type of
fault or alarm, the action taken when the drive faults, the parameter used to
configure the fault or alarm (if applicable), and a description and action (where
applicable). These faults and alarms only apply to Frame 8 drives and larger.

C1 Precharge
C2 Precharge
C3 Precharge

Alarm 1

1. The AC line voltage is in the range of 50...300V (for 400V class drives)

or 50...400V (for 600V class drives). Precharge begins when the AC
line voltage reaches 300V or 400V.

2. The drive has been in precharge for more than 12 seconds. If the “Cn

Precharge” alarm persists for more than 30 seconds the drive will
fault. Following powerup or a fault reset, the converter will not issue
any voltage related alarms until the AC input voltage exceeds 50V in
order to prevent an alarm when a customer-supplied auxiliary power
supply is used.

3. The DC bus open circuit test may be cycling. If this test cycles for more

than 10 seconds, event 144/244 “Cn DC Bus Open” will occur.

Alarm:

Check the line voltage in [Cn L12 Line Volt], [Cn L23 Line Volt], and

[CV L31 Line Volt] (port 11).

Check the phase current in [Cn L1 Phase Curr], [Cn L2 Phase Curr], and

[Cn L3 Phase Curr] (port 11) and the bus voltage in [Cn DC Bus Volt]
(port 11). Line current, line voltage, and bus voltage sensing are all
performed on the converter gate firing board. If this alarm persists,
replace the converter gate firing board.

Fault:

Verify that the current transducers have not all failed. If necessary,

replace all three current transducers.

Verify that the DC link inductor has not failed. If necessary, replace

the DC link choke.

Verify that the converter line and DC bus wiring is connected.
Verify that the capacitor bank is properly installed and connected.

Alarm 1

The AC line-to-line voltages are imbalanced, indicating an open AC
input phase.

Check for an upstream AC line loss.
Verify that the AC input line wiring is properly connected.
Check the wiring harness to the converter gate firing board for loose

connections and/or damage. If necessary, replace the converter gate
firing board wiring harness.

Alarm 1

Y

An alarm occurs if the calculated SCR temperature exceeds 125 °C and a
fault occurs when the calculated SCR temperature exceeds 135 °C.

Check for cooling problems - the heatsink cooling fan is running

slow, the enclosure filter or heatsink fins are dirty, or the ambient
temperature is too high.

An alarm when the heatsink temperature exceeds 95 °C and a fault
when the heatsink temperature exceeds 100 °C.

Check the NTC for a short or verify that it is connected.
Check for cooling problems - the heatsink cooling fan is running

slow, the enclosure filter or heatsink fins are dirty, or the ambient
