FF89

MOD CHOKE T

ABB · ACS800

What does FF89 mean?

An overtemperature condition has been detected in the choke of the liquid-cooled R8i inverter module of the ABB ACS800 drive. This indicates that the choke's operating temperature has exceeded its safe limit, which can lead to reduced performance or damage.

Common Causes

  • Malfunction or blockage of the inverter cooling fan, reducing airflow to the choke area.
  • Elevated ambient temperature within the drive enclosure or surrounding environment.
  • Issues with the liquid cooling system, such as low coolant flow, leaks, or insufficient cooling capacity.

  1. 1

    Check the inverter cooling fan for proper operation, ensuring it rotates freely and provides adequate airflow.

  2. 2

    Verify the ambient temperature around the ACS800 drive enclosure, ensuring it is within specified operating limits.

  3. 3

    Check the liquid cooling system for proper operation, including coolant flow, temperature, and any visible leaks.

  4. 4

    Verify coolant levels and ensure the pump for the liquid cooling system is functioning correctly.
