I have a TECO FM100 2 horsepower, 7.5 amp, ac inverter powering my Supermax handmill.
Single phase power into the inverter, three phase power to my mills motor.
It's a 2 horse power, 3 phase, 5.6 amp, 1720 rpm, Taiwanese motor on a step pulley head.
My problem is the inverter alarms out frequently and must be reset. The most prevalent alarms are OC-D , and OC-C.
OC-D = Overcurrent during decel
OC-C = Overcurrent during constant speed
For the OC-D I have extended the decel time from 10. (defualt setting) to
40. without much luck. For the OC-C the manual says to check the load condition and or install a reactor between the power supply and the inverter.
I'm a machinist not a electronics guy, so I'm not sure what load condition or
what's a reactor?
All I know is, it runs great, changes RPM ranges well, has never stalled or
alarmed when running, but after the motor has been stopped and I go to
start it up again I get an alarm. Probably alarms once out of every dozen
times, sometimes more sometimes less.
Any advise will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben
