Diagnostics

Check wiring connection to the board
Low Pressure Safety (LPS) Tripped:
• Check for correct refrigerant type
• Check refrigerant charge
• Check LPS setting
• Check LPS wiring
• Check EEV operation (stuck?)
• Check coil for icing
• Check for correct superheat reading
• Check for correct nozzle selection
• Check for clogged EEV inlet screen
• Check line sizing
• Check LPS time delay relay setting
• Check operation of LPS
High Pressure Safety (HPS) Tripped:
• Check for system overcharge
• Check for non-condensables
• Check condenser fan motor and blade
• Check for dirty condenser coil
• Check head pressure controls
• Check fan cycling controls
• Check liquid line sizing
• Check for liquid line restrictions
• Check operation of HPS
Oil Pressure Safety (OPS) Tripped:
• Check oil level in compressor
• Check oil sump screen pickup
• Check oil pump pressure
• Check for proper piping practices
• Check for low superheat (see E6)
• Check operation of auxiliary relay (R6)
• Check OPS sensor
• Check operation of OPS
Compressor Module Tripped (when supplied):
• Check module
• Check superheat at compressor inlet
• Check compressor for overheating
• Check suction pressure (too low?)
Phase Loss Monitor (PLM) Tripped:
• Check presence of all phase legs
• Check power supply
• Check operation of PLM
Demand Cooling (when supplied):
• Check auxiliary relay
• Check demand cooling device
Check compressor relay on board
IF OK
IF NOT OK
• Correct field wiring to the board
• Change setpoint to match refrigerant
• Add more refrigerant to proper charge
• Correct LPS setting
• Correct LSP wiring
• Clean or replace EEV
• Defrost coil (see E6, step 2)
• Check/replace sensor or transducer
• Replace distributor nozzle
• Replace EEV
• Correct line sizing
• Reset to 1 minute
• Replace Low Pressure Safety Switch
• Reclaim/recover excess charge
• Remove all non-condensables
• Repair or replace motor and/or blade
• Clean condenser coil
• Adjust or replace faulty controls
• Adjust or replace faulty controls
• Correct line sizing
• Repair line or remove restrictions
• Replace HPS if necessary
• Add oil to crankcase to minimum level
• Clean or replace pickup screen
• Replace compressor oil pump
Go to
• Correct piping to minimize oil logging
next step
• Correct per steps in E6
• Replace auxiliary relay
• Replace faulty OPS sensor
• Replace faulty OPS
• Replace faulty module
• Reduce superheat (TXV adjust, etc.)
• Correct overheating problem
• Consider crankcase pressure regulator
or other measures
• Correct power phase problem
• Correct power supply problems
• Replace faulty PLM
• Replace auxiliary relay
• Replace faulty demand cooling device
• Replace board if relay is faulty
