Resolution:
It’s a specific card for the crane builder POTAIN Crane (see label on the microchip).

If the drive indicates the OBF fault  it is caused by over braking.

This is caused when the drive's DC bus voltage exceeds the permitted voltage threshold within the drive. The drive indicates the OBF fault and puts the motor in to freewheel stop mode. 

There are three possible solutions:

1. If the load can be stopped in a longer ramp down time then a simple adjustment of the DEC ramp time may be all that is required.

2. Brake ramp adaptation

This is a internal parameter inside the drive which monitors the DC bus level, if the load is being ramped down and the DC bus voltage increases too much , the BRA parameter takes effect. The drive no longer brakes the load, which then switches to "freewheel" mode, so there is no more excess energy to be absorbed by the drive and the capacitors are no longer charged. On the contrary, as they discharge and the DC bus voltage decreases until it reaches a minimum threshold below which braked stopping on ramp is re-enabled.

The load is stopped by a succession of braked stops and freewheel stops, the braking is optimized but has a variable duration if the inertia of the load is constantly changing. The effect you see on the load is that the motor takes longer to stop than the programmed Deceleration time, which in some applications is undesirable.

To set this function:

Settings (SET) > Drive menu(DRC)  => Stt = Stn = > brA = yes

3. Braked stop by using a braking resistor

In this option the extra energy generated is transmitted to a braking resistor and is dissipated by the Joule effect.  If the braking resistor is correctly sized, the load can be stopped according to the period configured by the deceleration ramp parameter, irrespective of  the  inertia of the load.

The wiring of the resister is between terminals PA and PB. and the drive settings are as follows:

Drive menu => Stt = Stn  => brA = no.

Issue:
bPF fault on the ATS22.

Product Line:
Altistart ATS22

Environment:
All

Cause:
Bypass contactor detected fault

Resolution:
Do a static test on the ATS22;
https://www.se.com/us/en/faqs/FA221890/
If test results indicate a shorted SCR or welded/stuck shorting contactor, replace the soft starter.
Reference the ATS22 installation guide (BBV51330)

Issue: 
Troubleshooting a Altivar 58 with a blank display and will not power up.

Product Line: 
ATV58

Environment: 
All of the ATV58

Cause: 
DC bus is not charging, bad power board or MCB

Resolution:

1. Check Mains voltage on L1 L2 L3, 
2. Check DC bus voltage ( if this drive has a DC choke check to make sure its connected to PA and PO).
3. Check the +24vdc and +10vdc power supplies.
4. Power cycled  if needed  and see if the display comes back up. 

If no voltage on +24 or +10 then could be power board or control board issue. Unfortunately parts are obsolete so drive can be sent in for repair or unit can be replaced.

NOTE:  ATV58 drives have been obsolete since 2007.  No repair or replacement parts are available.  Review the application and installation to determine an appropriate replacement from our current offer.

Issue:
Differences between the ATV58 and the ATV61/71 drives

Product Line:
Altivar ATV58, ATV61, ATV71

Environment:
All

Cause:
Replacing the old ATV58 drive with a new ATV61 drive. What are the main wiring changes between the two drives?

Resolution:
In most cases, the wiring is going to be one to one when you convert the ATV58 over to the ATV61 drives.  It always helps if you have the old drawing number for the ATV58 to make sure any HOA controls are programmed correctly when switching over from the old ATV58 to the new ATV61.
2 wire control is default control on both ATV58 and ATV61 drives.
LI1 is start FWD on old ATV58 and ATV61.
+24vdc same on old ATV58 and ATV61
R1 is the same on the old ATV58 and ATV61
R2 is the same on the old ATV58 and ATV61
AI1 on the ATV58 is AI1+ on the new ATV61
Com is the same on the old ATV58 and new ATV61
AI2 on the ATV58 is the same on the new ATV61.

What is new on the ATV61 and ATV71?:
There is a jumper wired between +24 and PWR.  This is a factory jumper to satisfy the PWR permissive circuit. Please leave this jumper in place unless you are using the PWR input.
There is a factory jumper between AI1- and com. Please leave this jumper in place to allow the drives AI1 input to be 0 vdc to 10vdc. If you take out that jumper the AI1 input becomes a bipolar -10vdc to +10vdc input.



 

Issue:
Efficiency calculation on ATV312

Product Line:
Altivar ATV312

Environment:
All

Cause:
Efficiency ratings for the ATV312 drives

Resolution:
KW / (KW + Watts Loss) = Efficiency at rated load.
e.g. 2000 \ (2000 + 123) = 94.7% for the ATV312HU22M2.

Issue:
When replacing and ATV58 by an ATV61, what is the LO (output contactor)?

Product Line:
ATV61/71

Environment:
All range, All serial number

Cause:
None.

Resolution:
The LO is assigned to OCC. It is Output Contactor Command. The ATV61 does not have LO. The R1 and R2 relays on ATV61 are already being used in the circuit. Need to use any available contact off of the Run Command Relay and wire 24V through it to pull in the Drive Isolation contactor.

Issue:
OBF fault meaning on the ATV58

Product Line:
Altivar ATV58

Environment: 
All types

Cause:
OBF is over braking fault

Resolution:
Check the DEC time setting on the drive.  If it is very low, try increasing to allow the drive a longer ramp down time.

Check the Line voltage on L1, L2 and L3 to verify that it is within specifications.  High line voltage will translate to high DC bus voltage.

Monitor the DC bus voltage. 

If  OBF appears on power up, verify that the display is not set to show the last fault on power up.

A dynamic brake resistor may be required if the load is overhauling.

Issue:
Wiring the ATS22 with S6U suffix, for 2-wire control.

.Product Line:
Altistart 22

Environment:
All Altistart 22's ending with S6U suffix (120V)

Cause:
Basic wiring examples

Resolution:



The S6U requires constant 120VAC to terminals CL1 (hot) and CL2 (neutral). 

For a freewheel stop:
Connect a jumper from Terminal LI1 to LI2.  
Connect a jumper from Terminal CL2 to COM.
Close a dry contact between Terminals CL1 and LI2 for a run forward.  Open this connection for a freewheel stop. 


For a controlled stop:
Do not jumper LI1 to LI2, wire LI1 to CL1, use run contact between CL1 and LI2, and program SEt - dEC = ramp down time.



Note: The factory default setting for the dEC parameter is 'free'. Leaving this parameter set to 'free' will provide a freewheel stop, regardless of which way LI1 and LI2 are wired. (This is why the Quick Start Guide shows a wiring diagram similar to the one above and indicates that it allows a freewheel stop.) Conversely, removing voltage from LI1 will result in a freewheel stop, regardless of the value set for dEC. In other words, a freewheel stop can be accomplished by wiring and/or programming. 


Refer to the ATS22 User manual, ATS22 Quick Start Guide, or the Quick Start Annex for more information.

Issue:
Is a Line contactor required ahead of the soft start?

Product Line:
Altistart 22, ATS22

Environment:
All models and serial numbers

Cause:
None

Resolution:
The purpose of the line contactor is to provide a means of removing AC line voltage from the softstart.  Due to leakage currents through the solid state switches, hazardous voltages can be present on the load side of the softstarter when power is applied to the line side of the softstarter. 
Also, the line contactor can be controlled to open if the ATS22 faults.  Some faults are the result of SCRs shorting.  If multiple SCRs fail in a shorted condition, full voltage power passes through and will either single phase or continue to run the motor.  The KM1 would interrupt  the power circuit.

A line or isolation contactor such as KM1 shown in wiring diagrams, located in the Annex of the ATS22 Users Manual (BBV51330) is strongly suggested but not required.

There are multiple classes of thermal overload relay.

These class numbers indicate the trip characteristics from cold state, and should be selected according to the starting characteristics of the motor and its application. Below is a table giving the characteristics for each class

Ir = Current setting of overload relay. This should be the Full Load Current (FLC or FLA) shown on motor rating plate. For the vast majority of applications 10A will be the first choice.

The status of a Component's network can be displayed using the View | Component Label | Network Status menu item. An X indicates that the Component's Network is off-line and can not be controlled. A ? indicates that the Component's Network has been opened and that the state is not known but it may be possible to control the Group Address.

The status of all of the Networks can be viewed by selecting the View | Network States menu item. The possible network states are :

·New - the network has not been opened yet (usually caused by a failure to open the network)

·Open - the network has been opened, but the synchronisation process has not started

·Sync - the network is being synchronised (the progress will be shown *)

·OK - the network has been synchronised and is ready for use

·Error - the network has an error. (the cause of the error condition will be shown)

·Closed - network has not opened (usually caused by a failure to open the network)

·Operational - the network is open and can be used, but there are units not responding (see C-Gate Options). Note that this was previously referred to as the "degraded" state.

* For the Sync and Error states, it will show "unit x of y". This refers to the x^th unit out of a total of y units. It does not refer to the unit addresses.

Any units which are in error state will be listed. If any units are in error state, this should be investigated. If too many units are in the error state, the whole network will be put into the error state, and it will be unable to be used.

Issue:
SCF is a Short Circuit Fault

Product Line:
ATV58, FLEX58

Environment:
All models and serial numbers

Cause:
Possible causes are:
1.  heat sink fans are not operating
2.  The output transistors (IGBT) are not gating correctly
3.  Short circuit in the motor or motor wiring
4.  capacitance due to long motor lengths   

Resolution:
1.   replace the heat sink fans
2.   repair or replace the drive.  This drive has been discontinued.  Parts may not be available.
3.   check motor for shorts,  Megger motor and motor wires with minimum of 1000v megger
4.   add a load filter

Issue: 
Multiple motor leads wired in the same conduit in a VFD installation.

Product Line:
All Altivars

Environment:
All

Cause: 
Multiple motor and or Line leads from different drives in the same conduit.

Resolution:
It is not recommended to run the motor leads from different drives in the same conduit. 
Multiple motor leads from different drives is not recommended because the noise generated from the pulse width modulated (PWM) waveform can cause cross-talk resulting in possible nuisance tripping.

Issue:
Diode static check on FLEX58.

Product Line:
Flex58 or ATV58

Environment:
All

Cause:
Checking diodes to see if they are shorted.

Resolution:
Before starting, make sure you turn off ALL POWER on the drive.  Wait 15 mins, so that the DC bus has time to discharge below 24vdc on PA+ and PC-.
Using a multi-meter with a diode checker , measure between the DC Bus terminals PA/+ to L1-L2-L3 , then reverse the meter leads and read again between PA/+ to L1-L2-L3.  In one direction, you should read 0.30 to 0.60, and in the reverse direction you should read OL.  Repeat this measurement with the blue wire (PC/-) on the J18 connector or on the (PC-) terminal.  If "shorted circuit" is read in any of the readings, repair or replace the drive is recommended.
