Opening a valve : 8 → 7 → 6 → 5 → 4 → 3 → 2 → 1 → 8
Closing a valve : 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5 → 6 → 7 → 8 → 1
The output pulse shifts in above order.
· When linear expansion valve operation stops, all output phases
become OFF.
· When the switch is turned on, 700 pulse closing valve signal will
be sent till it goes to
A
(The pulse signal is being sent for about 20 seconds.)
When the valve moves smoothly, there is no sound or vibration
occurring from the linear expansion valve : however, when the
pulse number moves from
more sound can be heard.
N o sound is heard when the pulse number moves from
case coil is burnt out or motor is locked by open-phase.
· Sound can be detected by placing the ear against the screw driv-
er handle while putting the screw driver to the linear expansion
valve.
