Cause : Motor overtemperature comes when the motor temperature has exceeded the limit defined in the drive settings. It can be caused by real overheating or incorrect/missing temperature sensor signals.
f7011 Motor overtemperature fault in siemens drive indicate that the drive has detected that the motor's temperature has exceeded a predefined limit.
Troubleshooting Steps:
- Check motor load – Is it overloaded or jammed?
- Check the Motor Temperature: Carefully (and safely!) feel the motor housing. If it's excessively hot to the touch, the overtemperature protection has likely done its job. Let it cool down before further investigation.
- Check Motor Cooling: Ensure the motor's cooling fins are clean and unobstructed.
- Check the ambient temperature and the motor ventilation.
