What A00504 means

Inverter OverTemperature p. 392

Common causes

  • Warning level of inverter heat sink temperature, warning level of chip junction temperature, or allowed change in temperature on chip junction is exceeded, resulting in pulse frequency reduction and/or output frequency reduction (depending on parameterization in P0290). p. 392
  • Note: r0037 = 0: Heat sink temperature r0037 = 1: Chip junction temperature (includes heat sink) p. 392
  • Check the following: p. 392

What to do

  1. - Ambient temperature must lie within specified limits - Load conditions and load steps must be appropriate - Fan must turn when drive is running p. 392
