Possible Causes

Possible Solutions

Line Loss

:

(with phase indication)

1, 2, 3, 41, 42

and 43

• Missing supply phase
• Motor not connected properly
• Improper or missing feedback

• Check for open line (eg. blown line fuse)
• Check for open load lead
• Check current transformer connections and module

programming

• Check voltage sensing board connections and module

programming

• Check ribbon cable connections between Interface

Board and Control Module

• Check voltage feedback circuits
• Consult factory

Shorted SCR

4, 5 and 6

• Shorted Power Module

• Check for shorted SCR, replace if necessary

(See Power Circuit Troubleshooting)

Open Gate
(with phase indication)

7, 8 and 9

• Open gate circuitry
• Loose gate lead

• Perform power supply tests (Chapter 3)
• Check gate lead connections to the gate driver boards

and fiber optics

PTC Power Pole

10

• Controller ventilation blocked
• Controller duty cycle exceeded
• Fan failure
• Ambient temperature limit exceeded
• Failed thermistor
• Failed control module
• Failed gate driver board
• Failed fiber optic cable
• Failed interface board

• Check for proper ventilation
• Check application duty cycle
• Replace fan
• Wait for controller to cool or provide external cooling
• Check connection or replace thermistor
• Replace control module
• Test or replace gate driver board
• Test or replace cable
• Test or replace interface board; check ribbon cables

Motor PTC

12

• Motor ventilation blocked
• Motor duty cycle exceeded
• PTC open

• Check for proper ventilation
• Check application duty cycle
• Wait for motor to cool or provide external cooling
• Check resistance of PTC

Open Bypass

13, 14, 15

• Control voltage is low
• Inoperable bypass contactor

• IntelliVAC fault

• Check control voltage power supply
• Check control circuit operation
• Check control plug on contactor
• Check status of IntelliVAC, correct the condition, reset

the module

No load

16, 17, 18, 40

• Loss of load side power wiring
• Loss of feedback

• Check all load side power connections and motor windings
• Check voltage sensing module

Line Unbalance

19

• Supply unbalance is greater than

the user-programmed value

• The delay time is too short for the

application

• Unbalanced feedback

• Check power system and correct if necessary

• Extend the delay time to match the application

requirements

• Check voltage sensing module

Overvoltage

20

• Supply voltage is greater than user-

programmed value

• Check power system and correct if necessary
• Correct the user-programmed value

Undervoltage

21

• Supply voltage is less than user-

programmed value

• The delay time is too short for the

application

• Check power system and correct if necessary
• Correct the user-programmed value
• Extend the delay time to match the application

requirements.

Overload

22

• Motor overloaded
• Overload parameters are not

matched to the motor

• Check motor overload condition
• Check programmed values for overload class and

motor FLC

Underload

23

• Broken motor shaft
• Broken belts, toolbits, etc.
• Pump cavitation

• Repair or replace motor
• Check machine
• Check pump system

Jam

24

• Motor current has exceeded the

user programmed jam level

• Correct source of jam
• Check programmed time value

Stall

25

• Motor has not reached full speed by

the end of the programmed ramp time

• Correct source of stall
