K1-Trip (Main contactor K1 stuck)
Kuka · KR C2 Robot Controller
What does 111 mean?
This fault indicates that the main contactor K1 is stuck, meaning it has failed to open or close as commanded (KPS-600). This can prevent the system from safely powering up or shutting down, and can lead to continuous power supply to the drive even when disengaged, posing a safety risk.
Repair Steps
- 1
Verify the coil voltage for main contactor K1 during commanded open and close states.
- 2
Manually actuate K1 (if safe to do so with power off) and verify proper mechanical movement.
- 3
Measure the continuity of the main power contacts of K1 when commanded open and closed.
- 4
Inspect K1 contacts for signs of welding, pitting, or other physical damage.
