2.1 Compressor

Check and ensure in following order when error related with the compressor or error related with power occurs
during operation:
No. Checking Item

[Cautions when measuring voltage and current of inverter power circuit]
Measuring values may differ depending on measuring tools and measuring circuits since voltage, current in the
power supply or output side of the inverter has no since waveform.
Especially, output voltage changes when output voltage of the inverter has a pattern of pulse wave.
In addition, measuring values appear largely differently depending on measuring tools.
1) If using a movable tester when checking that output voltage of the inverter is constant (when comparing rela-
tive voltage between lines), always use an analog tester. Especially exercise particular caution if the output
frequency of the inverter is low, when using a movable tester, where change of measured voltage values is
large between other lines, when virtually same values appear actually or where there is danger to determine
that failure of the inverter occurred.
2) You can use rectification voltmeter (
of the inverter (when measuring absolute values). Accurate measuring values cannot be obtained with a gen-
eral movable tester (For analog and digital mode).

Countermeasure
* Go to No.2.
* Go to No.2 after applying
power for designated time (12
hours).
* Check IPM may fail.
* Check coil resistor and insulation
resistor. If normal, restart the
unit. If same symptom occurs,
replace the compressor.
* Insulation resistor : 50MΩ or more
* Coil resistor (below table)
