C o n tr o l l er Al a r m s
When an alarm occurs, the Thermolator has detected a problem with the process. Without correction, the
TCU will not be able to produce process fluid of the correct temperature. Under certain conditions, an
alarm could lead to equipment damage or personal injury if it is not corrected.
•
The controller displays an error code indicating the cause of the problem.
• If the optional alarm package is installed, the Fault strobe will illuminate and the audible alarm will
activate.

Solution
Verify that the unit is running and
that the pump is working.
Check for closed or defective
cooling or vent valves and plugged

Valves.
Check for external closed valve on
the process fluid going to external
equipment.
Check for a plugged pipe.
See
Repairing Cooling Valves or the
Motorized Cooling Valve instruc-
tions.
Replace the contactor if defective.
See Replacing the Heater Contac-
tor.
Check the cooling load (Btu/hr) for
which the valve was specified.
Verify the free flow of water out of
the unit.
Check the water return pressure
with valve.
Check the water supply pressure. If
equipped, verify that strainer is not
clogged.
