Yaskawa AC Drive Z1000 - Manual (Page 212)

Motor has overheated
• Check the size of the load, the accel/decel times, and the cycle times.
• Decrease the load.
• Increase the acceleration and deceleration times (C1-01 through C1-04).
• Adjust the preset V/f pattern (E1-04 through E1-10) by reducing E1-08 and E1-10.
• Do not set E1-08 and E1-10 too low. This reduces load tolerance at low speeds.
• Check the motor rated current.
• Enter the motor rated current to parameter E2-01 as indicated on the motor nameplate.
• Ensure the motor cooling system is operating normally.
• Repair or replace the motor cooling system.

Motor Overheat Fault (PTC Input)
• The motor overheat signal to analog input terminal A1 or A2 exceeded the fault detection level.
• Detection requires setting multi-function analog inputs H3-02 or H3-10 to E.
Cause Possible Solution
Motor has overheated
• Check the size of the load, the accel/decel times, and the cycle times.
• Decrease the load.
• Increase the acceleration and deceleration times (C1-01 through C1-04).
• Adjust the preset V/f pattern (E1-04 through E1-10) by reducing E1-08 and E1-10.
• Do not set E1-08 and E1-10 too low. This reduces load tolerance at low speeds.
• Check the motor rated current.
• Enter the motor rated current to parameter E2-01 as indicated on the motor nameplate.
• Ensure the motor cooling system is operating normally.
• Repair or replace the motor cooling system.

Motor Overload
The electronic motor overload protection tripped
Cause Possible Solution
Load is too heavy Reduce the load.
Cycle times are too short during acceleration and
deceleration
Increase the acceleration and deceleration times (C1-01 through C1-04).
A general-purpose motor is driven below the rated
speed with a high load
• Reduce the load.
• Increase the speed.
• If the motor is supposed to operate at low speeds, either increase the motor capacity or use a motor
specifically designed to operate in the desired speed range.
The output voltage is too high
• Adjust the user-set V/f pattern (E1-04 through E1-10) by reducing E1-08 and E1-10.
• Do not set E1-08 and E1-10 too low. This reduces load tolerance at low speeds.
The wrong motor rated current is set to E2-01
• Check the motor-rated current.
• Enter the motor rated current to parameter E2-01 as indicated on the motor nameplate.
The maximum output frequency is set incorrectly
• Check the rated frequency indicated on the motor nameplate.
• Enter the rated frequency to E1-06 (Base Frequency).
Multiple motors are running off the same drive Set L1-01 to 0 to disable the motor protection function and then install a thermal relay to each motor.
The electrical thermal protection characteristics
and motor overload characteristics do not match
• Check the motor characteristics.
• Correct the type of motor protection that has been selected (L1-01).
• Install an external thermal relay.
The electrical thermal relay is operating at the
wrong level
• Check the current rating listed on the motor nameplate.
• Check the value set for the motor rated current (E2-01).
Motor overheated by overexcitation operation
• Overexcitation increases the motor loss and the motor temperature. Excessive duration of
overexcitation may cause motor damage. Prevent excessive overexcitation operation or apply
proper cooling to the motor.
• Reduce the excitation deceleration gain (n3-13).
• Set L3-04 (Stall Prevention during Deceleration) to a value other than 4.
Parameters related to Speed Search are set
incorrectly
• Check values set to Speed Search related parameters.
• Adjust the Speed Search current and Speed Search deceleration times (b3-02 and b3-03
respectively).
