The FANUC SV0443 alarm indicates an inverter cooling fan failure. This alarm occurs when the system detects an abnormal condition in the internal cooling fan of the amplifier or power supply module.
In many FANUC servo systems, the power supply module or amplifier uses an internal cooling fan to remove heat from the module. If the fan is not installed, not connected correctly, blocked by contamination, or damaged, the module may report SV0443 to protect the drive system from overheating.
According to the troubleshooting condition, this alarm may be related to the internal cooling fan, power supply side board, fan motor connector, or the power supply module. In some cases, the common power supply module may display alarm code 2.

What Does FANUC SV0443 Alarm Mean?
SV0443: Inverter Cooling Fan Failure
The FANUC SV0443 alarm means that an abnormal condition has been detected in the internal cooling fan of the inverter, amplifier, or power supply module.
The internal cooling fan is used to help remove heat from the module. If the fan does not rotate normally, if the fan connector is loose, if the fan is contaminated with oil or dust, or if the fan is damaged, the system may detect a cooling fan fault and generate SV0443.
If the common power supply module is involved, the module may display alarm code 2. This usually indicates that the internal fan or cooling-related circuit should be checked.
Common Causes of FANUC SV0443 Alarm
The most common causes of FANUC SV0443 inverter cooling fan failure alarm include:
1. Internal Cooling Fan Not Installed
If the amplifier or power supply module requires an internal cooling fan but the fan is not installed, the system may report SV0443.
In this case, the correct internal cooling fan should be installed according to the module type.
2. Internal Cooling Fan Failure
If the internal cooling fan is damaged or cannot rotate normally, the system may detect a fan failure.
The fan blade should be checked manually when the module is safely powered off and discharged. If the fan is stuck, difficult to rotate, noisy, or damaged, the cooling fan should be replaced.
3. Fan Motor Connector Loose or Poorly Connected
The fan motor connector on the side board should be firmly connected.
If the connector is loose, poorly inserted, or has bad contact, the power supply module may not detect normal fan operation and may generate the SV0443 alarm.
4. Power Supply Side Board Not Installed Correctly
The power supply side board must be installed correctly.
If the side board is not fully inserted or fixed properly, the fan detection circuit may be abnormal. In this case, remove the side board, reinsert it correctly, and secure it again.
5. Oil, Dust, or Contamination on the Fan
Oil stains, dust, or other contamination may affect fan rotation.
If oil or dirt is found on the fan, clean the fan first and then test again. If the fan still cannot operate normally after cleaning, replace the cooling fan.
6. Power Supply Side Board Failure
If the fan, connector, and side board installation have all been checked but the alarm remains, the power supply side board may be faulty.
In this case, the side board should be replaced for testing.
7. Power Supply Module Failure
If replacing or checking the side board does not solve the problem, the power supply module itself may be faulty.
The power supply module may need to be replaced if the internal fan detection or control circuit is damaged.
How to Troubleshoot FANUC SV0443 Alarm
When troubleshooting FANUC SV0443, the key point is to confirm whether the internal cooling fan and its related detection circuit are working normally.
You may need to check:
- Whether the amplifier or power supply module has an internal cooling fan installed
- Whether the common power supply module displays alarm 2
- Whether the power supply side board is installed correctly
- Whether the side board is loose or not fully inserted
- Whether the fan motor connector on the side board is connected firmly
- Whether the cooling fan blade rotates smoothly
- Whether the fan has oil stains, dust, or contamination
- Whether cleaning the fan restores normal operation
- Whether replacing the cooling fan clears the alarm
- Whether the power supply side board needs to be replaced
- Whether the power supply module needs to be replaced
Recommended Solution
The correct solution for FANUC SV0443 depends on whether the problem is caused by a missing fan, fan failure, loose fan connector, side board installation problem, side board failure, or power supply module failure.
1. Confirm Whether the Internal Cooling Fan Is Installed
First, confirm whether the amplifier or power supply module requires an internal cooling fan.
If the cooling fan is not installed, install the correct internal cooling fan according to the module requirement.
2. Check Whether the Power Supply Side Board Is Installed Correctly
Check and confirm whether the side board of the common power supply module is properly installed.
If the side board is not inserted correctly, remove it and insert it again firmly. Make sure the board is fully seated and fixed.
3. Check the Fan Motor Connector
Pull out the power supply side board and check whether the fan motor connector on the side board is firmly connected.
If the connector is loose or poorly connected, reconnect it securely and test again.
4. Check Fan Blade Rotation
After the module is safely powered off and discharged, gently move the fan blade to check whether the fan rotates smoothly.
If the fan is stuck, difficult to rotate, or mechanically damaged, replace the cooling fan.
5. Clean the Fan If Oil or Dust Is Found
If the fan has oil stains or dust contamination, clean the fan first and then test again.
If the fan still cannot recover after cleaning, replace the cooling fan directly.
6. Replace the Cooling Fan If Necessary
If the internal fan is confirmed faulty, replace the cooling fan.
A faulty fan should not be ignored because poor cooling may lead to module overheating and further damage.
7. Replace the Power Supply Side Board or Power Supply Module
If the fan, fan connector, side board installation, and fan rotation have all been checked but SV0443 remains, replace the power supply side board or the power supply module.
