ADDITIONAL CAUSE/REMEDY
Check for closed oil supply valves. Check oil filter.
Check for low oil temperature. Check transducer
accuracy.
Check for excessive refrigerant in oil sump. Run oil
pump manually for 5 minutes. Check calibration of
oil pressure differential amplifier modules. Check wir-
ing. Replace transducers if necessary.
Check wiring to flow switch. Check through CON-
TROL TEST for proper switch operation.
Check wiring to flow switch. Check through CON-
TROL TEST for proper switch operation.
A starter protective device has faulted. Check starter
for ground fault, voltage trip, temperature trip, etc.
Reset overloads, check ICR relay before restarting
chiller.
Check voltage supply. Check transformers for sup-
ply. Check with utility if voltage supply is erratic. Moni-
tor must be installed to confirm consistent, single-
cycle dropouts. Check low oil pressure switch.
Check for proper design condenser flow and tem-
perature. Check condenser approach. Check 2C aux-
iliary contacts on oil sump starter. Check high pres-
sure switch.
Check that guide vanes are closed at start-up. Check
starter for proper operation. Reduce unit pressure
if possible.
Check starter for proper operation.
Run contact failed to close.
Check starter for proper operation.
Start contact failed to close.
Check for proper motor amps signal to SMM. Check
wiring from SMM to current transformer. Check main
motor circuit breaker for trip.
Pressures at transducers indicate another refriger-
ant type in control test. Make sure to access the AT-
TACH TO NETWORK DEVICE screen after speci-
fying HFC-134a refrigerant type.
The oil pressure differential switch is open when the
compressor tried to start. Check the switch for proper
operation. Also, check the oil pump interlock (2C aux)
in the power panel and the high condenser pres-
sure switch.
Check for closed oil supply valves. Check oil filter.
Check transducer accuracy.
necessary.
ADDITIONAL CAUSE/REMEDY
Compressor is running with more than 10% RLA
and control is trying to shut it down. Turn power
off to compressor if unable to stop. Determine cause
before re-powering.
Determine cause. If pumping refrigerant out of
chiller, stop operation and go over pumpout
procedures.
Starter run and start contacts are energized while
control tried to shut down. Disconnect power to
starter.
Check wiring from PSIO to SMM. Check SMM mod-
ule troubleshooting procedures.
Starter run and start contacts energized while chiller
was off. Disconnect power.
The condenser pressure transducer is reading a
pressure that could freeze the water in the con-
denser tubes. Check for condenser refrigerant leaks,
bad transducers, or transferred refrigerant. Place
the unit in PUMPDOWN mode to eliminate the
alarm if vessel is evacuated.
