25
Brake resistor short circuit
Danfoss · VLT HVAC Drive High Power
What does 25 mean?
This warning is triggered when the brake resistor is detected as short-circuited during operation. While the frequency converter remains operational, its braking function is disabled, posing a safety risk in applications requiring active braking. Continued operation without a functional brake resistor can lead to uncontrolled deceleration or safety hazards.
Additional Steps
Steps 1–2 are listed in Priority Fix.
- 3
Carefully inspect the wiring connections to the brake resistor for any signs of physical damage, insulation breakdown, or direct short circuits.
- 4
After replacement, perform a brake check (if available in the drive's functions) to confirm proper operation of the new resistor.
