Common faults and solutions of inverters

Feb 2, 2018

When the inertia of the load is too large, the acceleration time of the inverter is not enough to match the change in the speed of the motor, resulting in an overload trip. When the load is too heavy, the output frequency of the inverter rises to the rated value, and the torque of the motor is not enough to overcome the load, resulting in an overload trip.

The large load inertia has caused current tripping.

When the inertia of the load is too large, the acceleration time of the inverter is not enough to match the change in the speed of the motor, resulting in overcurrent tripping.

Overload caused the current to trip the circuit breaker.

When the load is overloaded, the output frequency of the inverter rises to the rated value, and the torque of the motor is not enough to overcome the load, resulting in an overload trip.

The frequency rises to a certain value and the overcurrent trips the circuit breaker.

When load eccentricity or deceleration devices are used, the current of the inverter may reach the maximum value, thus triggering an overload trip.
