Compressor Operational Sounds

At Low Ambient Start-Up
When the compressor starts up under low ambient conditions, the initial flow rate of the
compressor is low due to the low condensing pressure. Under this condition, it is not unusual to
hear the compressor rattle until the suction pressure climbs and the flow rate increases.
Compressor – Blink Codes
The CSHN*** compressors come equipped with a compressor protection device capable of
detecting phase reversal, phase loss, and phase unbalance. The compressor protection device
uses a Green and Red LED to indicate the compressor status. A solid Green LED denotes a fault free
condition; a blinking Red LED indicates an identifiable fault condition.
Note: If the compressor has tripped, the resistance will be 4500 ohms or greater; when reset, they
Blink Code: The blink code consists of different on / off time of the Red LED which is repeated
continuously until either the fault is cleared or until power is cycled.
