Motor overtemperature

What does 16 mean?

The motor's temperature has exceeded its safe operating limits, primarily due to an excessively heavy load on the motor. This fault can also occur if the drive's internal temperature model parameters are incorrectly configured for the specific motor. Continuous operation at high temperatures significantly degrades motor winding insulation and can lead to premature failure.
