Inverter 17 - GE PFSS5NJWSS User Manual

Inverter (cont.)
The inverter will monitor the compressor operation and if the compressor fails to
start or if excessive current draw (4 amps maximum) is detected, the inverter will
briefly stop voltage output. The inverter will then make 12 consecutive compressor
start attempts (once every 12 seconds). After 12 attempts, if the compressor has not
started, an 8- minute count will initiate. After the 8-minute count, the inverter will
attempt to start the compressor again. If the compressor starts, normal operation
will resume. If the compressor fails to start, this process will be repeated. Removing
power to the unit will reset the inverter count. When power is restored, the
inverter will attempt to start the compressor within 8 seconds.
The inverter has a built-in circuit protection to guard against damage from a failed
or shorted compressor. However, if a failed compressor is diagnosed, order a new
compressor and inverter.
If the compressor fails to start after replacement, replace the inverter.
