U-PHASE SHORT-CIRCUIT
Cause: Drive detected short-circuit in transistor.
LOAD-END OVERCURRENT
Cause: Drive detected short-circuit on output.
drive. Remove any power factor correction caps on motor. See Item 169, OUTPUT SHORT-
CIRCUIT DETECTION SELECT.
OVERVOLTAGE (ACCEL) or OVERVOLTAGE (RUN)
Cause: Bus exceeded 393 VDC (230 volt drive),or 787 VDC (460 volt drive).
Incoming AC may have gone high or spiked (verify with Item 289,290, 291, or 292
set to "16"); a line reactor or a lower tap on transformer may help. Motor may be mechanically
forced to run faster than drive is commanding; install appropriate dynamic braking resistor (see
page 9-16). On eccentric cyclic loads like presses or pump jacks, contact your Toshiba distributor
for special programming instructions that may make a DBR unnecessary.
OVERVOLTAGE (DEC)
Cause: Bus exceeded 393 VDC (230 volt drive),or 787 VDC (460 volt drive).
Incoming AC may have gone high or spiked (verify with Item 289 set to "16"); a line
reactor or a lower tap on transformer may help. Item 11, DECELERATION TIME #1 may be too
short. Drive will automatically change decel time with Item 12, ACC/DEC PATTERN ADJUST
LOW set to "1". Make sure Item 145, OVERVOLTAGE STALL PROTECTION is set to "0". Motor
may be mechanically forced to run faster than drive is commanding (due to large load inertias
mechanical couplings); install appropriate dynamic braking resistor (see page 9-16). On eccentric
cyclic loads like presses or pump jacks, contact your Toshiba distributor for special programming
instructions that may make a DBR unnecessary.
INVERTER OVERLOAD
Cause: Drive exceeded 110% of its rated current for too long of a time.
This trip indicates that the drive output exceeded its rated current for specific
amounts of time. For example, 100 HP and smaller drives can output 150% of their rated current
for 120 seconds, 130% for 240 seconds, 170% for 3.5 seconds, and 185% for 0.5 seconds.
If using DC Injection, Item 147, DC INJECTION CURRENT MAGNITUDE or Item 148 DC
INJECTION TIME they may be too large. If Item 42, PWM CARRIER FREQUENCY is greater than
8 KHz, try carrier frequencies less than 8 KHz. Programming Item 161, OVERLOAD SELECTION
Torque Control (see page 9-31) may reduce drive's current output and solve the problem. Make
sure that drive is seeing voltage on all three of its input phases. Drive may be undersized.
MOTOR OVERLOAD
Cause:
See page 9-17. Check Items 158, 159, 160, and 161. If trip occurred at a low
frequency, the setting of Item 159, OVERLOAD REDUCTION START FREQUENCY is probably
critical. Motor overload protection can be turned off by placing a "2" or "3" in Item 161. Check
value in Item 160, MOTOR 150% OVERLOAD TIME LIMIT
