Circuit breaker Q5 trips when the machine is switched on or during production


Summary

Circuit breaker Q5 trips when the machine is switched on or during production. 

Cause / Remedy

  • Measure voltages on all phases, even under load. It is possible that one phase did drop down, and this triggered the circuit breaker.
  • Measure the current of each phase with a current clamp after Q5. If the measured value is below the value of the circuit breaker and Q5 still keeps tripping, the circuit breaker may be defective. Replace it.
  • Maybe the parameter “Low bat voltage” (coming from Pacemaker) is set too low: This means that the contactor in the Pacemaker closes too early with a precharge voltage that is too low, causing Q5 to trip. To check this, please open a ticket to contact CanMan.
