The Challenge
The driven motor could not run reliably, stopping a critical machine function and increasing production downtime.
Diagnosis
- The input stage, DC bus, pre-charge circuit, IGBT power section, gate drivers, current sensing, cooling system, and control board were inspected.
Our Solution
- Defective power or control components were replaced as required, cooling and connection issues were corrected, boards were cleaned, and the drive was functionally tested with a motor.
Testing Performed
- Input inspection; DC-bus test; power-stage test; motor rotation test; current monitoring; fault-reset test; thermal and burn-in test.
Final Result
The reference repair process restores normal functional operation after the unit passes the defined electrical, communication, motion, or load checks applicable to the equipment.
Common Fault Codes & Causes
- 1 – OVERCURRENT: Excessive motor load, short acceleration time, faulty motor/cable or output fault.
- 2 – DC OVERVOLT: High/transient mains voltage, short deceleration time or braking issue.
- 3 – DEV OVERTEMP: Fan failure, blocked airflow, dirty heatsink, high ambient temperature or overload.
- 4 – SHORT CIRC: Motor/cable short circuit or supply disturbance.
- 6 – DC UNDERVOLT: Missing input phase, blown fuse or low mains voltage.
- 7 – AI1 LOSS: Analog input wiring/source failure or incorrect fault-limit setting.
- 8 – AI2 LOSS: Analog input wiring/source failure or incorrect fault-limit setting.
- 9 – MOT OVERTEMP: Motor overload, thermal-model issue or temperature-sensor problem.
- 10 – PANEL LOSS: Control panel communication loss or control wiring/setting issue.
- 16 – EARTH FAULT: Motor/cable earth leakage or insulation failure.
Preventive Maintenance
- Maintain clean cooling paths, verify motor load and cabling, inspect fans, protect against voltage disturbances, and keep the cabinet temperature within limits.
