Possible cause
Frequency limits are set incorrectly
Reference input signal not scaled
correctly
Possible incorrect parameter settings
Possible overmagnetization
Possible incorrect settings in the
brake parameters. Possible too short
ramp-down times.
Phase-to-phase short
Motor overload
Loose connections
Problem with mains power (see
alarm 4, Mains phase loss
description)
Problem with the frequency
converter unit
Problem with motor or motor wiring
Problem with the frequency
converter unit
Resonances, for example, in the
motor/fan system

Test
Check output limits in
parameter 4-14 Motor Speed High Limit
[Hz] and parameter 4-19 Max Output
Frequency.
Check reference input signal scaling in
parameter group 6-** Analog I/O mode
and parameter group 3-1* References.
Check the settings of all motor
parameters, including all motor
compensation settings. For closed-
loop operation, check PID settings.
Check for incorrect motor settings in
all motor parameters.
Check brake parameters. Check ramp
time settings.
Motor or panel has a short phase-to-
phase. Check motor and panel phase
for shorts.
Motor is overloaded for the
application.
Perform pre-start-up check for loose
connections.
Rotate input power leads into the
frequency converter 1 position: A to B,
B to C, C to A.
Rotate input power leads into the
frequency converter 1 position: A to B,
B to C, C to A.
Rotate output motor leads 1 position:
U to V, V to W, W to U.
Rotate output motor leads 1 position:
U to V, V to W, W to U.
Bypass critical frequencies by using
parameters in parameter group 4-6*
Speed Bypass.
Turn off overmodulation in
parameter 14-03 Overmodulation.
Increase resonance damping in
parameter 1-64 Resonance Dampening.
Solution
Program correct limits.
Program correct settings.
Check settings in parameter group 6-
** Analog I/O mode.
Check motor settings in parameter
groups 1-2* Motor data, 1-3* Adv
motor data, and 1-5* Load indep.
setting.
Check parameter groups 2-0* DC brake
and 3-0* Reference limits.
Eliminate any shorts detected.
Perform the start-up test and verify
that motor current is within specifi-
cations. If motor current is exceeding
nameplate full load current, the
motor may run only with reduced
load. Review the specifications for the
application.
Tighten loose connections.
If the imbalanced leg follows the
wire, it is a power problem. Check
mains supply.
If the imbalanced leg stays on same
input terminal, it is a problem with
the unit. Contact the supplier.
If the imbalanced leg follows the
wire, the problem is in the motor or
motor wiring. Check motor and
motor wiring.
If the imbalanced leg stays on same
output terminal, it is a problem with
the unit. Contact the supplier.
Check if noise and/or vibration have
been reduced to an acceptable limit.
