Motor Control Diagnostic Codes
E21: No component A
transducer
1. Check transducer A connection at J3 on motor control board, page 34, and clean contacts.
2. Reverse A and B transducer connections. If error
moves to transducer B (E22), replace transducer A,
page 36. If error does not move, replace motor control board, page 34.
E22: No component B
transducer
1. Check transducer B connection at J8 on motor control board, page 35, and clean contacts.
2. Reverse A and B transducer connections. If error
moves to transducer A (E21), replace transducer B,
page 36. If error does not move, replace motor control board, page 34.
E23: High fluid pressure
1. Relieve pressure. Verify low pressure with analog
b. Turn on the Reactor master power.
•If the error is gone, turn off the Reactor main
power, remove test transducer, and replace “A”
transducer.
•If the error persists, unplug the “test” transducer
from the “A” socket, and reinstall the “A” pressure transducer back into the “A” socket.
Repeat this test procedure on the “B” side.
4. If the error persists and no root cause is found
through the above testing, replace the motor control
board, page 34.
E24: Pressure Imbalance
If the pressure difference between components A
and B exceeds 500 psi (3.5 MPa, 35 bar), an E24
will occur. This default value is adjustable; see the
operation manual.
E24 can be an alarm or a warning, as desired. Set
DIP switch on motor control board ON for alarm,
OFF for warning. See page 34.
gauges. Turn main power OFF then ON
. If error persists, do checks below.
1. Check the jumpers and the wiring. Check jumper on
motor control board J10 for E20 and E-XP1, or J7
for E30 and E-XP2, pins 7-10, page 34.
2. Remove, clean and re-install the pressure transducer leads
If the jumpers and the wiring are in good working condition and you still have the error, then you will need to
replace the “A” and “B” pressure transducers.
3. To determine if it’s the “A” or the “B” transducer, you
will need a known good Reactor pressure transducer to use as a “test” transducer. The test is done
without removing the existing pressure transducers
from the fluid manifold.
a. Unplug the “A” transducer from the Motor con-
trol board socket (page 36) and replace with
“test” transducer.
Fast E24 Errors
Fast E24 errors occur:
•within 10 seconds of turning the pumps on, or
•as soon as you trigger the gun.
Causes of Fast E24 Errors
•one side of the gun is plugged.
•a pressure transducer has failed.
•damaged pump seals or check valve.
•no feed pressure or empty material drum
•plugged heater.
•plugged hose.
•plugged manifold.
•one PRESSURE RELIEF/SPRAY valve is leaking or
is set to PRESSURE RELIEF/CIRCULATION
12312066Z
Motor Control Diagnostic Codes
Checks for Fast E24 Errors
If a fast E24 error occurs, first check the readings of
the analog gauges.
If gauge pressures are very close
1. Clear the error and run the unit.
2. Check plug J10 (E20/E-XP1) or J7 (E30/E-XP2) or
the jumpers 7 to 8, or 9 to 10 on the motor control
board.
3. Check pressure transducer performance:
The digital display on a Reactor always shows the
higher of the two pressures. As soon as the higher analog pressure drops below the lower analog pressure the
digital display will switch to the new highest reading.
Determine which transducer is performing poorly.
1. For testing purposes only, find the dip switches
labeled SW2 on the motor control board, page 35.
Set dips witch 3 to OFF. This will allow the Reactor
to run with a pressure imbalance alarm.
2. Run the unit to build up some pressure (1000 –
1200 psi). Shut down the unit, clear the alarm and
power back up. Do not depressurize the unit.
3. Check the analog gauges to see which pressure is
higher. Check if the display pressure matches, indicating that the motor control board “sees” that transducer. If not, the motor control board does not “see”
that transducer. Check the wire connections and or
replace the transducer.
4. With the pump zone off, use the pressure relief
valves to slowly relieve the “high” side pressure,
while watching the digital display and the analog
gauges. Once the higher analog gauge drops below
the lower analog pressure the motor control board
should start reading the “new” high side pressure
(because it is now the higher of the two). Continue
dropping the original “high” side pressure - the digital display should stop dropping. Repeat the process to check the other pressure transducer.
The last test determines if the pressure transducer has
failed or if the socket on the pressure control board has
gone bad.
1. Swap the transducer plug-ins on the motor control
board. (J3 and J8 for the E-20 and E-XP1. J3 and
J5 for the E30 and E-XP1).
2. Repeat above test.
3. If the problem stays with the same side as before,
then the pressure transducer is bad.
4. If the problem switches to the other transducer, then
the problem is in the motor control boards socket.
If the gauge readings are
1. Clear the error and balance the pressures using the
dump valves.
2. If you cannot get the pressures to balance:
•Check for pump failure.
•Check for adequate material.
•Using the feed pump to push fluid out through the
gun manifold, check for a plugged fluid path.
•Run the unit.
•Check and clean the gun inlet screens.
•Check and clean the mix chamber “A” and “B”
impingement ports a well as the center port. Note:
Some mix chambers have counter bored holes,
and require two drill sizes to clean impingement
ports completely.
“Slow” E24:
•When spraying, gradual pressure imbalance and
eventual E24.
Possible Causes:
•One side of the Gun is partially blocked.
•The “A” or the “B” pump on the Reactor has failed.
•The “A” or the “B” feed pump has failed.
•The “A” or the “B” feed pump pressure is set too
high.
•The “A” or the “B” inlet screen is plugged.
•The hose is not heating properly.
•Kinked supply hose.
•Bottom of the drum is damaged causing a blockage
to the inlet of the feed pump.
•The drum is not vented properly.

Motor Control Diagnostic Codes
E25: High line voltage
Supply voltage too high. Check Reactor voltage requirements, page 73.
E26: Low line voltage
Supply voltage too low. Check Reactor voltage requirements, page 73.
E27: High Motor Temperature
1. Motor temperature too high. Reduce pressure, gun
tip size, or move Reactor to a cooler location. Allow
one hour for cooling.
2. Check fan operation.
3. Ensure there is no obstruction around the fan area
that would cause lack of airflow; ensure the
motor/fan shroud is installed.
4. Ensure the unit is being operated with the front
cover on.
5. Ensure the brush wear/over temp switch wire
assembly is plugged into J7 (E-20/E-XP1) or J6
(E-30/E-XP2) of the motor control board.
6. With the main power off, unplug the wire harness
from J7 (E-20/E-XP1) or J6 (E-30/E-XP2) on the
motor control board and install a jumper wire on
pins 1 and 2. Turn the main power back on.
E28: High current in motor
Check motor control board:
1. Turn the master power off.
2. Disconnect socket J4 (E-20/E-XP1) J1
(E-30/E-XP2) on the motor control board.
3. Turn the master power back on.
4. If the E28 error did not go away then there is a problem with the motor control board. Replace board,
page 34.
Check motor:
1. Check to see if the motor rotates freely.
2. Check to see if the brushes are damaged.
3. Check that the voltage going to the motor is good.
4. Check the three wire (yellow, yellow, orange) motor
connector to the motor board. A gentle tug on each
wire individually at the connector should identify the
loose wire. If a wire pulls out, bend the locking tab
on the crimp end, insert the wire until it seats and
repeat gentle tug.
5. If the above does not resolve the problem, replace
the motor, page 33.
E29: Brush Wear
If E27 is gone:
If the E27 error is gone and the motor is truly not overheated, then the problem can be in the motor/motor wire
harness assembly. Measure the resistance between the
two yellow wires that go to pins 1 and 2 of the motor
connector. If there is an open connection, the thermal
overload switch is open or there is a broken wire inside
the motor, or a broken wire in the motor harness.
If the E27 error code is still there, double check if pins 1
and 2 are jumpered properly. If jumpered properly, then
it would appear that the problem is with in the motor
control board.
14312066Z
Prolonged operation of motor after a brush wear
warning may result in failure of motor and motor control board.
1. Check for normal brush wear, which causes the
brush sensor to come in contact with the motor
commutator. Replace the brushes, page 30.
2. Check spade plug. The spade plug inside the motor
housing may be twisted and contacting the commutator side of the brush sensor assembly, causing a
false alarm. Follow the orange wire coming from J7
(E-20/E-XP1), or J6 (E-30/E-XP2), up to the spade
connector on the motor. Using a flashlight, ensure
the spade plug assembly is not making contact with
the metal housing of the brush assembly.
CAUTION
3. Check wiring. The orange brush sensor wire coming
out of the brush may be routed online with the commutator wiring (thick red wire), causing a false
alarm. Reroute the orange wire coming out of the
brush, away from the commutator wiring.
4. Check motor control board.
•Remove the plug in J7 (E-20/E-XP1), or J6
(E-30/E-XP2). (This will cause an E27 alarm).
•To remove the E27 alarm, use a jumper wire on the
motor control board, across the two pins that the
two yellow wires plug into. Then turn the unit on.
Motor Control Diagnostic Codes
1. Turn main power OFF . Disconnect power
supply.
Wait 5 minutes for stored voltage to discharge (E-30
and E-XP2 models only).
2. Relieve pressure, page 23.
•The E27 as well as the E29 alarm should be gone. If
the E27 alarm is not gone double-check your
jumper.
•If the jumper is installed correctly and the E29 alarm
is still there, replace the motor control board, page
34.
E31: Motor Control Failure
(E-30 and E-XP2 only)
The E31 error code represents a motor drive error. This
indicates that the 24G881 motor control board has malfunctioned and needs to be replaced. A motor control
board failure may also be indicated by the motor starting
up immediately upon the application of power to the sys-
tem, without pressing . This is an indication that
the output drivers of the motor control have shorted out
and are delivering full power to the motor at all times.
The cause of the failure may be one of the following conditions: motor failure, capacitor failure, shorted or frayed
wiring, or inadequate power supply. Perform the following procedure before replacing the motor control board.
3. Perform the following inspections.
a. Motor failure: Inspect the motor commutator by
removing the top brush (see Brush Removal,
page 30). Rotate the motor, inspecting the
whole commutator for burns, pocking, or shorts
between poles. Continue rotating the motor for a
complete pump cycle, up and down, to ensure
that there is no mechanical interference or
restriction in the pump lower or gear drive system.
b. Capacitor failure: Inspect and test the motor
start capacitor, following the Capacitor Test
instructions on page 32.
c. Shorted or frayed wiring: Inspect all wiring
connected to the motor control board and the
motor, for shorts or frayed insulation. Replace
any compromised wires with wire of the same
gauge, color. and temperature rating.
d. Inadequate power supply: Verify that the
power source is of the correct voltage and current rating for the system, and that all phases
are properly connected. Ensure that the power
does not dip or surge during operation.
Prior to shutting down the generator, ensure
that the motor has stopped and the main disconnect is opened. If the generator is stopped
during operation, even due to running out of
fuel, the drop in supply voltage may cause a
motor drive failure.
312066Z15
Communication Diagnostic Codes
E32: Motor Control
1. Relieve pressure, page 23. Verify low pressure with
analog gauges.
Overtemperature
The E32 error code indicates a high temperature condition within the motor control board (701). This could be
caused by an abnormally high ambient temperature in
the work location, blockage of cooling vents in the cabinet, or the failure of the cooling fan inside the cabinet.
2. Turn main power OFF then ON .
If error still remains, identify cause of the overtemperature condition and remedy.
Communication Diagnostic Codes
E30: Momentary loss of
communication
Communications between the display and the motor
control board or the temperature control board have
been momentarily lost. Normally, when communication
is lost, the corresponding display will show E99. The
corresponding control board will register E30 (The red
LED will flash 30 times). If communications are reconnected, the display can show the E30 for a short time
(no more than about two seconds). It should not be possible for E30 to be shown continuously, unless there is a
loose connection causing the display and the board to
continuously lose and regain communication.
E99: Loss of communication
Communications between the display and the motor
control board or the temperature control board has been
lost. When communication is lost, the corresponding
display will show E99.
1. Check all wiring between the display and the corresponding control board. Pay close attention to the
wire crimping on plug J13 for each board.
Check all wiring between the display and the corresponding control board.
Step 2 measures line voltage and should be done by a
qualified electrician. If work is not performed properly
it may cause electric shock or other serious injury.
2. Measure the incoming voltage to the board (it
should be ~ 230Vac).
3. If it was only receiving 1 leg of the 230Vac the board
may light up, and still not function properly. Correct
the incoming voltage problem.
