SECTION 7 - OPERATION
Sensor failure cutout fault
The Sensor Failure Cutout prevents the system from
running when a critical sensor (transducer, level sen-
sor, or motor winding temp sensor) is not function-
ing properly and reading out of range. This safety is
checked at startup and will prevent the system from
running if one of the sensors has failed.
The sensor failure safety will also fault and shutdown
a system while in operation, if a safety threshold is ex-
ceeded or a sensor reads out of range (high or low).
Following is the Status display fault message.
SYS X YYYYYYYY SENSOR FAILURE:
ZZZZZZZZZZZZ
The X indicates the specific system.
YYYYYYYY will either indicate the system
is in a FAULT condition and will restart
when the fault clears, or "LOCKOUT"
after 3 faults and will not restart until the
operator clears the fault using the keypad.
ZZZZZZZZZZZ indicates the failed sensor as follows:
• SUCT PRESS
• OIL PRESS
• DSCH PRESS
• MOTOR TEMP X *
The Unit Setup Mode allows a specific motor tempera-
ture sensor to be ignored, if it fails. The start inhibit
thresholds for each sensor are shown in the following
table.

High motor temperature cutout fault
The High Motor Temperature Cutout prevents a
compressor from running when its motor temperature
is too high. A system will fault and shut down when
any compressor motor temperature sensor rises above

121°C (250°F). The system will be inhibited from start-
ing if its motor temperatures sensors indicate tempera-
tures above 116°C (240°F). If any single temperature
sensor is being ignored under the Unit Set-up Mode,
that sensor will not be utilized when evaluating motor
temperature. The following is a sample Status display
fault message:
SYS X YYYYYYYY HIGH MOTOR TEMP
The X indicates the system and YYYYYYY indi-
cates the system is in a FAULT condition and restarts
when the fault clears or LOCKOUT and does not
restart until the operator clears the fault using the
keypad.
System control voltage cutout fault
The System Control Voltage Cutout alerts the opera-
tor the 115 VAC Control voltage to one of the systems
is missing. This may be due to a system fuse that has
been removed or is blown. The affected system will
fault and shut down immediately when the 115 VAC
supply is lost.
The safety does not shut down a system if the UNIT
switch is OFF, which electrically removes the 115 VAC
to all systems. The safety is only used to indicate a situ-
ation where a single system is missing the 115 VAC.
The safety will not cause a lockout and the system fault
will reset when power is returned. The following is a
sample message:
SYS X YYYYYYYY CONTROL VOLTAGE
The X indicates the system and YYYYYYY indicates
the system is in a FAULT condition and will restart
when the fault clears or LOCKOUT and will not restart
until the operator clears the fault using the keypad.
Eductor clog fault
To sense a loss of oil return to the compressor, an educ-
tor clog detection safety is utilized. The safety moni-
tors the temperature of the line between the eductor
and the suction line.
The control algorithm looks at the eductor line temper-
ature once a second. At start, a clog timer is set at 600
seconds. If the eductor line temperature is less than the
saturated suction temperature plus 5.5°C (10°F) each
time the control circuit looks at the temperature, the
clog timer is reset to 600 seconds.
