11 Electrical checks of the
main parts

11.1.3 Protection function

1. Excessively high or low Inverter voltage
a. Level of detection at 400 V / 50 Hz:
Excessively low voltage in case the DC voltage is lower than 350 V.
Excessively high voltage in case the DC voltage is higher than 750 V.
b. Function:
When a malfunction has been detected, the Inverter compressor stops and transmits the stop cause signal to PCB1.
c. Cancellation of the protection function:
The stop cause signal transmission is cancelled when remote control switch is off or main power source is cut off.
2. Malfunction in the current sensor
a. Level of detection:
A malfunction is detected when the operating frequency is 15–18 Hz and the inverter compressor current decreases
below 1.5 A.
b. Function:
When a malfunction has been detected, the Inverter compressor stops and transmits the stop cause signal to PCB1.
c. Cancellation of the protection function:
The stop cause signal transmission is cancelled when remote control switch is off or main power source is cut off.
3. Inverter overcurrent protection
a. Level of detection:
Overcurrent is detected when the current sensor detects that the compressor current is higher than the transistor
module's (IPM) rated current. (Instantaneous Overcurrent).
When the current detected by current sensor exceeds 105 % of the rated current continuosly for 30 seconds or for
3 minutes in total during a 10 minutes period, overcurrent is detected. (Electric Thermal Relay).
b. Function:
When a malfunction has been detected, the Inverter compressor stops and transmits the stop cause signal to PCB1.
c. Cancellation of the protection function:
The stop cause signal transmission is cancelled when remote control switch is off or main power source is cut off.
4.Transistor module (IPM) protection
a. Level of detection:
An anomaly is detected when some of the output terminals between "U" and "V", "V" and "W", "W" and "U" of the
transistor module (IPM) are short-circuited.
A malfunction is detected when the transistor module (IPM) running current reaches the rated current limit.
A malfunction is detected when the transistor module (IPM) thermistor measures an abnormal increase in
temperature.
A malfunction is detected when the transistor module (IPM) control voltage detects an abnormal decrease.
b. Function:
When a malfunction has been detected, the Inverter compressor stops and transmits the stop cause signal to PCB1.
c. Cancellation of the protection function:
The stop cause signal transmission is cancelled when remote control switch is off or main power source is cut off.
5. Fin temperature increase
a. Level of detection:
An anomaly is detected when the thermistor's internal temperature increases above 90 °C.
b. Function:
When a malfunction has been detected, the Inverter compressor stops and transmits the stop cause signal to PCB1.
c. Cancellation of the protection function:
The stop cause signal transmission is cancelled when remote control switch is off or main power source is cut off.
6. Earth detection
a. Level of detection:
A malfunction is detected when the terminal U, V, W a compressor earth are short-circuited before the compressor
is turned on.
A malfunction is detected when the transistor module (IPM) output terminals (U, V, W) are short-circuited.
b. Function:
When a malfunction has been detected, the Inverter compressor stops and transmits the stop cause signal to PCB1.
c. Cancellation of the protection function:
The stop cause signal transmission is cancelled when remote control switch is off or main power source is cut off.
