Alarm and fault messages

4.2 Alarm and fault messages

 

Causes

Inlet air temperature too high

 

 

o

Air inlet to switchroom is blocked

 

 

o

Air outlet from switchroom is restricted

 

 

o

Ambient temperature is too high

 

Measures

Replace the defective components

 

 

Check the parameter settings

 

 

Clean or enlarge the air inlet

Table 4-5 Faults 4 and 47

 

 

Fault 4 (alarm): Inverter overload, I²t monitoring, stage 1

Fault 33 (alarm): Inverter is signaling overtemperature, stage 2

Condition The CU has detected a current which is higher than the permissible l²t limit.

Causes

Excessive current

 

o

Parameter setting error (CU software –

 

 

current limit value)

 

Fault in measured-value sensing

 

o

Parameter setting error (CU software - limit

 

 

value I2t)

Measures

Adjust the parameter settings

Table 4-6 Fault 6

(Alarm) overload

 

Condition

The CU has detected a current which is higher than the

 

 

selected permissible value.

 

Causes

USI is defective

 

 

AC current transformer defective

 

 

Parameter setting error

 

Measures

Adjust the parameter settings

Table 4-7 Fault 12

(Alarm) System is in commissioning mode

 

Condition

The CU has detected that commissioning mode is

 

 

selected

 

 

 

 

Causes

The CU is in commissioning mode

 

Measures

Set the CU operating mode to "Reversion"

Table 4-8 Fault 14

(Alarm) Fan has exceeded its useful life

 

Condition

The hours counter in the CU has reached "0" (hours are

 

 

counted backwards)

 

 

 

 

Causes

The fan has operated for 35,000 hours since initial

 

 

commissioning

 

 

The value set initially for the hours counter was too low

 

Measures

Replace the fan.

 

 

Set the hours counter to 35,000 hours.

The fans do not necessarily develop defects after working for this number of hours.
