DC Bus Overvoltage
Schneider Electric · Altivar 312 Variable Frequency Drive
Hva betyr ObF ?
The DC bus voltage inside the drive has exceeded its safe operating limit. This is most commonly caused by regenerative energy from the motor, particularly during rapid deceleration of high-inertia loads, or by an excessively high incoming line voltage. Unresolved overvoltage can lead to damage to the drive's internal power components.
Vanlige årsaker
- Rapid deceleration of a high-inertia load without an adequately sized braking resistor or braking unit.
- Input line voltage (e.g., L1-L2, L2-L3, L3-L1) exceeding the drive's maximum rated voltage during operation.
- Motor cable capacitance (especially with long cables) causing voltage spikes during IGBT switching.
- Faulty internal DC bus voltage measurement circuit providing an incorrect reading.
- Incorrectly set acceleration/deceleration ramps (e.g., P1-03, P1-04) that are too short for the connected load.

1. Measure the input line voltage (e.g., L1-L2, L2-L3, L3-L1) to ensure it is within the drive's specified limits.
- 2
2. Increase the deceleration ramp time (e.g., Parameter P1-04) to reduce regenerative energy during stops.
- 3
3. Verify the braking resistor (if installed) is correctly sized (e.g., Ohm value, Wattage) and wired to the drive's terminals (e.g., BR+ to BR-).
- 4
4. Check the resistance of the braking resistor; verify it is not open-circuit or short-circuit.
- 5
5. Inspect the motor cable for proper shielding and ensure its total length is within the drive's specifications.
- 6
6. Monitor the DC bus voltage (e.g., via HMI or serial communication) during operation to pinpoint the exact overvoltage event.
