Outdoor Unit Control - Mitsubishi Electric PKH-2GKLA Technical & Service Manual

3. OUTDOOR UNIT CONTROL

3-1 Outdoor fan control
The rotational frequency of outdoor fan is phase-controlled according to the outdoor coil temperature. This control allows the
cooling operation even with the low outside-air temperature and the heating operation even with the high outside-air tempera-
ture.
3-2 Outdoor unit control
The outdoor unit turns ON/OFF the cooling/heating operation according to orders given from the indoor unit.
3-3 Protective functions
1 If an reversed-phase, an open phase, or an indoor controller abnormality is detected, the outdoor unit will stop operation
and the check mode will start. (For the check mode details, see page 45,46.)
2 If a protective function works, the compressor will stop running. Three minutes later, the compressor will restart. If the pro-
tective function works again, the compressor will stop running and the check mode will start.
3 The protective function is memorized.
4 The memory is cleared when the POWER ON/OFF button on the remote controller is turned OFF. However, the check mode
display continues until the outdoor unit receives the "operation ON" command from the indoor unit.
