Cycle Part - LG ARTCOOL Series Service Manual

5. Cycle Part

Trouble analysis
1. Check temperature difference between intake and discharge air, and check for the operating current too.
Case
Temp. difference : approx. 0°C
Case 1
Current : less than 80% of rated current
Temp. difference : approx. 8°C
Case 2
Current : less than 80% of rated current
Temp. difference : less than 8°C
Case 3
Current : over the rated current
Case 4
Temp. difference : over 8°C
NOTICE
Temperature difference between intake and discharge air depends on room air humidity. When the room air humidity is
relativery higher, temperature difference is smaller. When the room air humidity is relatively lower temperature difference
is larger.
2. Check temperature and pressure of refrigeration cycle.
Suction pressure
(Compared with (Compared with
the normal value) the normal valve)
Higher
Lower
NOTICE
1. The suction pressure is usually 8.5~9.5kg/cm G(Cooling) at normal condition.(R410A)
2. The temperature can be measured by attaching the thermometer to the low pressure tubing and wrap it with putty.
