Search Siemens error codes centrally

This page brings together Siemens error codes from several important product families in a single technical overview. This is particularly helpful if there is an error code, but the exact product group must first be classified or if several Siemens drive systems are used in parallel in a system.

Especially with series like SINAMICS G120, SINAMICS DCM 6RA80, SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES VC, SIMOREG 6RA70 or MICROMASTER 420, 430 and 440, a central error code search saves a lot of time in the event of service. In addition, the page leads directly to further product areas and inquiries.

If you are looking for a suitable replacement device, a Siemens assembly or a technical assignment, this error code page leads directly to Siemens products and the product inquiry.

Key Siemens series and product groups

How the Siemens error-code database is structured

The error-code search above is the main feature of this page. It displays the relevant information directly in each result without requiring additional subpages.

The tables further down show typical and frequently searched messages for technical orientation. Use the search field above to query the complete dataset.

Important: The tables below are representative excerpts for each product group. Use the error-code search above for the complete database.

SINAMICS DCM 6RA80 - Example error codes

SINAMICS DCM 6RA80 represents the largest individual area in the data collection. Especially with DC-drives, the focus of the diagnosis is power converters, cooling, power section, network feedback and application parameters.

Code Display Description Type
Beispiel F60001 Internal device malfunction Disturbance
Beispiel A60010 Temperature warning Warning
Beispiel A60020 Communication warning Warning

SINAMICS G120 - Example error codes

The SINAMICS G120 product family is installed in many machines and conveyor systems. Typical topics in diagnostics are control module, parameterization, temperature, memory card and configuration errors.

Code Display Description Type
A01009 A01009 CU: Overtemperature control module Warning
A01016 A01016 Firmware changed Warning
A01028 A01028 Configuration error Warning

SINAMICS G120 CU230P-2 - Example error codes

The CU230P-2 versions of the G120-Familie are particularly relevant in HVAC and pump/fan applications. Accordingly, in addition to standard errors, application-specific messages also play a role here.

Code Display Description Type
A01009 A01009 Overtemperature control module Warning
A01035 A01035 Parameter backup files corrupted Warning
A01045 A01045 Configuration data invalid Warning

SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES VC - Example error codes

SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES VC systems are still in use in many existing systems. When troubleshooting, the power section, parameterization, communication and system-side releases are particularly important.

Code Display Description Type
Beispiel F008 DC link error Disturbance
Beispiel A015 Cooling warning Warning
Beispiel F020 Power section error Disturbance

SIMOREG DC-MASTER 6RA70 - Example error codes

SIMOREG 6RA70 drives are still in use in many DC-applications today. Common diagnostic fields include current control, field supply, cooling and power unit-related messages.

Code Display Description Type
Beispiel F001 Device malfunction Disturbance
Beispiel A005 Temperature warning Warning
Beispiel F010 Control error Disturbance

MICROMASTER 440 - Example error codes

MICROMASTER 440 devices can be found in many existing systems. Typical fault topics are overcurrent, intermediate circuit, overtemperature, parameterization and motor connection.

Code Display Description Type
A05000 A05000 General warning Warning
F0001 F0001 Overcurrent Disturbance
F0002 F0002 DC link overvoltage Disturbance

MICROMASTER 430 - Example error codes

MICROMASTER 430 is particularly common in pump and fan applications. In the event of malfunctions, the supply, setpoint control, parameterization and motor side should be thoroughly checked.

Code Display Description Type
F0001 F0001 Overcurrent Disturbance
F0003 F0003 Undervoltage Disturbance
A05000 A05000 General warning Warning

MICROMASTER 420 - Example error codes

The MICROMASTER 420 is also one of the frequently sought-after Siemens existing devices. In everyday service, the focus here is usually on standard errors from the supply, motor side and parameterization.

Code Display Description Type
F0001 F0001 Overcurrent Disturbance
F0002 F0002 Overvoltage Disturbance
A05000 A05000 General warning Warning

SINAMICS V20 - Example error codes

SINAMICS V20 is widely used in the area of compact standard drives. Typical topics are overcurrent, overtemperature, power supply and parameterization.

Code Display Description Type
F1 F1 Overcurrent Disturbance
F2 F2 Overvoltage Disturbance
A5 A5 Temperature warning Warning

Suitable Siemens replacement devices and next steps

If a Siemens converter or drive system needs to be replaced at short notice, the exact assignment of the series, assembly and error pattern is particularly important. This central error code page is intended to help with exactly that: classify errors more quickly and then move on to the appropriate product or query.

Suitable overview pages such as Siemens and the product inquiry can be used for further products and assemblies.

Shop & Inquiry

Find Siemens devices, spare parts and replacement devices

After the technical classification via the error code search, the direct route to the appropriate Siemens module, to the replacement device or to the product inquiry is usually the most sensible next step.

FAQ for Siemens error codes

Siemens error codes can have very different structures depending on the product group. While alphanumeric codes such as A01009 or F30005 often appear in SINAMICS, more compact displays can be found in other series. That’s why a central search page is particularly helpful.

The search bar at the top of the page is crucial for complete research. The tables below intentionally only serve as typical excerpts of the most important product groups.
