connectors, or parts may be damaged.
(1) Mount a pressure gauge on the
low pressure service port.
(2) Connect the Service Checker for
VRV systems.
Are the
characteristics of
the low pressure
sensor normal? (Make a
comparison between voltage
characteristics and gauge
pressure.)
CHECK 12
YES
Is the
outdoor unit main
PCB detection pressure
normal? Make a comparison
between data on pressure checked by
the Service Checker and the
voltage characteristics.
CHECK 12
YES
Reset the operation, and then
restart it.
