Siemens 310611 - Axis drive pressure sensor failed

Axis drive pressure sensor failed

Power limitation or friction compensation is activated: Modify MD 5241: bit 0 or bit 1 is set and both actual pressure values are less than 2 of the system pressure in MD 5101: WORKING_PRESSURE on performance enable. Cause: Pressure sensor or connecting cable defective Control reaction: Mode group not ready. The NC switches to follow-up mode. Channel not ready. NC Start disable in this channel. Interface signals are set. Alarm display. NC Stop on alarm. Channel not ready.

Safety

  • Drive/power/encoder circuit: hazardous voltages may remain in the DC link after power-off. Lock out / tag out, wait for discharge per the drive documentation, and use qualified personnel only.

Common Causes

  • Power limitation or friction compensation is activated: Modify MD 5241: bit 0 or bit 1 is set and both actual pressure values are less than 2% of the system pressure in MD 5101: WORKING_PRESSURE on performance enable.
  • Cause: Pressure sensor or connecting cable defective

Troubleshooting Steps

  1. 1Check the connection of both pressure sensors.
  2. 2If no pressure sensors are installed: - Deactivate the force limitation: Modify MD 5241: reset bit 0 - Deactivate friction compensation: Modify MD 5241: reset bit 1
  3. 3Clear alarm with the RESET key in all channels of this mode group. Restart part program. 2-783
