Err37 in danfoss VLT2800 drive indicates Internal fault. This means there is an hardware issue in drive power card or control card.
When you encounter an "Error 37" "internal fault" in a danfoss VLT2800 drive, it typically indicates a problem within the drive itself.
Here are some common causes and steps to address them:
-
Overcurrent or Overvoltage Protection: Internal faults may occur if the VFD detects excessive current or voltage. This could be due to a short circuit, overload, or power supply issues. Check the input voltage and current levels to ensure they're within the VFD's specified operating range.
-
Overheating: Excessive heat can trigger internal faults. Verify that the VFD is adequately cooled and that ventilation is not obstructed. Clean any dust or debris that may be blocking airflow to the VFD.
-
Component Failure: Internal faults could result from the failure of components such as transistors, capacitors, or diodes within the VFD. Inspect the internal components for any visible signs of damage or wear, such as burnt or swollen capacitors, and replace any faulty parts as necessary.
-
Software or Firmware Issues: Sometimes, internal faults may be caused by software bugs or firmware glitches. Check if there are any updates or patches available from the manufacturer to address known issues. Resetting the VFD to its factory defaults may also help resolve software-related issues.
-
Electromagnetic Interference (EMI): External factors such as electromagnetic interference from nearby equipment or power lines can cause internal faults in the VFD. Ensure proper grounding and shielding measures are in place to minimize the impact of EMI.
-
Internal Fault Logging: Some VFDs have internal diagnostic features that log fault codes or events. Refer to the VFD's manual or documentation to access these logs and identify the specific fault code associated with the internal fault. This can provide valuable information for troubleshooting and repair.
