6.  Check the tables below for the potential fault code of the motor based on the LED:

Number of 

pulses

Fault Code (Red LED color)

Comments

1

Phase failure

Automatic restart once phase failure is corrected

3

Power module overheated

Power cycle required

4

Internal communications error be-
tween primary/secondary controller

Primary = electronics, Secondary = motor. Power cycle required.

6

Motor overheated

Power cycle required

7

Hall sensor error

Power cycle required

8

Motor blocked

Automatic restart after blockage is cleared

9

Speed limit exceeded

Automatic restart

11

Rotor position sensor calibration error Power cycle required

13

DC-link undervoltage

Automatic restart after undervoltage is cleared

Number of 

pulses

Fault Code (Yellow LED color)

Comments

1

Current limitation in action

Current limited to prevent damage of the electronics

2

Line impedance too high

DC link voltage is instable

3

Power limiter in action

Derating is active

4

Output stage temperature high

Temperature > 105°C

5

Motor temperature high

Temperature > 130°C

6

Temperature inside electronics high

Temperature > 105°C

7

DC-link voltage low

DC-link < 460V

8

Braking mode

Error after 20s when motor start was not possible

9

Calibration of rotor position

Calibration of rotor position sensor in progress

10

Actual speed is lower than run moni-
toring speed limit

Only if set value > 0

11

Cable break at analog or PWM input 
for analog set value

Check wiring

NOTE: 

This fault code may be present if the command signal to the 

motor is 0%. Increase command signal to check if wiring issue.

13

DC-link voltage high

DC-link > 850V

15

Line-voltage high

U1_peak > 850VDC

16

Shedding function active

Shedding function is active and fan is blocked

7.  If any of the above fault codes cannot be cleared, replace fan assembly.
8.  Deenergize unit and perform lockout/tagout procedures. Verify all power has been removed from unit.
9.  Check input fuses to fan motors. Replace fuses if needed.

10.  Disconnect wiring from fan motor. Wring out wires to verify no wiring shorts. Replace wiring as needed.

11. 

Use a standard multimeter to check resistance on motor input terminals L1, L2, L3 between each phase (L1 to 

L2, L2 to L3, L3 to L1). Resistance should be greater than 2 ohms.

a. 

If resistance is less than 2 ohms during any check of motor terminals, replace fan assembly.

b. 

If resistance is greater than 2 ohms and no wiring shorts are present, secure motor terminal box, remove 

lockout/tagout and apply power to motor. 
   i.  Check if LED is red or yellow, or blinking. See tables in Step 6 for fault codes.
 ii. If no faults are shown, verify motor is operational.
iii. If LED is not lit and/or fuses continue to fail, or fan is not operational, replace fan assembly.
