Possible Cause: Heat sink temperature is under – 10 °C.

Remedy: Check that the inverter is operated under specified conditions.

 

Fault Code : 14 Inverter over Temperature

Honeywell NX VFD drive Fault code

Possible Cause :

  • Heat sink temperature is over 90 °C.
  • Over temperature warning is issued when the heat sink temperature exceeds 85 °C.

Remedy:

  • Check the correct amount and flow of cooling air.
  • Check the heatsink for dust.
  • Check the ambient temperature.
  • Make sure that the switching frequency is not too high in relation to ambient temperature and motor load.

 

Fault Code : 15 Motor Stalled

Possible Cause : Motor stall protection has tripped.

Remedy:

  • Check motor.
  • Check that pump or fan is not blocked.

 

Fault Code : 16 Motor over Temperature

Honeywell NX VFD drive Fault code

Possible Cause :

  • Motor overheating has been detected by frequency converter motor temperature model.
  • Motor is overloaded.

Remedy:

  • Decrease the motor load.
  • If no motor overload exists, check the temperature model parameters.

 

Fault Code : 17 Motor Under Load

Honeywell NX VFD drive Fault code

Possible Cause : Motor under load protection has tripped.

Remedy:

  • FAN: check that belt is not broken.
  • PUMP: check that pump is not dry.

 

Fault Code : 22 EEPROM Checksum Fault

Possible Cause : Parameter save fault:

  • Faulty operation.
  • Component failure.

Remedy: Contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 24 Counter fault

Possible Cause : Values displayed on counters are incorrect.

Remedy: Contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 25 Microprocessor Watchdog Fault

Honeywell NX VFD drive Fault code

Possible Cause :

  • Faulty operation.
  • Component failure.

Remedy:

  • Reset the fault and restart.
  • Should the fault recur, contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 29 Thermistor fault

Possible Cause : The Thermistor input has detected increase of the motor temperature.

Remedy:

  • Check motor cooling and loading.
  • Check thermistor connection. (If thermistor input is not in use, it has to be short circuited.)

 


Fault Code : 32 Fan Cooling

Honeywell NX VFD drive Fault code

Possible Cause : Cooling fan of the inverter does not start, when ON command is given.

Remedy: Contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 34 Internal Bus Communication

Possible Cause : Ambient interference of defective hardware.

Remedy: Should the fault recur, contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 35 Application fault

Possible Cause : Selected application does not function.

Remedy: Contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 39 Device Removed

Possible Cause :

  • Option board removed.
  • Drive removed.

Remedy: Reset the VFD drive

 

Fault Code : 40 Device unknown

Possible Cause : Unknown option board or drive.

Remedy: Contact the technical support.

 

Fault Code : 41 IGBT Temperature
