Ac Dive Trip.

[rahuljadhav1]

 

Dear all,

 

I am using one Control technique SK 4KW drive.

 

But in running condition sometimes it trips with oht1 code.It says that IGBT junc. temp high.

 

I have checked all possible conditions and parameters.The motor used is the geared motor

 

with it's rpm mention on plate as 257 rpm,poles not mention.This 257 i think is the o/p rpm

 

of gearbox.Also G.B.ratio not available.......!

 

What do you think the possible cause?

 

Regards

 

Rahul

Hello Rahul

 

This indicates that there is a lack of cooling or some abnormal heating issue.

 

Is the drive installed in a sealed enclosure with no ventilation?

 

Is the drive mounted vertical or horizontal?

 

What is the running current?

 

What is the length of cable on the output of the drive?

 

What is the carrier frequency set to?

 

Best regards,

Dear marke,

 

 

drives cooling fan is on continuously,but the total panel is not kept

 

in AC room.Drive mounting is vertical.Current is around 7 A.Cable length about 5m.

Hello Rahul

 

If the drive is in an enclosure without adequate ventilation or size, the energy dissipated by the drive will cause the temperature of the air inside the enclosure to rise. If the temperature of the air rises too high, the cooling will be reduced and the overtemperature trip will operate.

 

Check the temperature of the air around the drive (at the input to the heatsinks is a good place)

 

Leave the door of the enclosure open and see if the trip disappears. If there is not trip with the door open, but the drive trips on over temperature when the enclosure is closed, then you need to add more ventilation.

 

You could also reduce the carrier frequency. This will reduce the power losses in the IGBT and reduce the temperature rise.

Thanks sir

 

My customer once told me that when the panel door is closed the drive trips.

Now i have asked him to provide the AC ROOM for the panel.I hope this will

solve the issue.Also the swithing freq. was 6KHz, which is now set to 3KHz.

Take care.
