6.1.37 EC1 - R32 refrigerant leakage sensor fault
Check the R32 refrigerant leakage sensor of faulty IDU
If the measured refrigerant saturation pressure at the liquid side or gas side is equal to the standard saturation pressure, there is
no refrigerant leak. Then check whether the sensor is damaged or contaminated by foreign materials (such as steam and oil). If so,
replace the sensor.
Error display
Faulty IDU: stops. Other IDUs of the same system: operate normally.
Error impact
ODU of the same system: operate normally.
When the IDU main control board receives sensor module fault signal from the R32 refrigerant

Error recovery
When the IDU main control board cannot detect a sensor module fault signal
Possible cause
See the Troubleshooting section.
Troubleshooting
Note:
1. How to reset when the sensor body is faulty or the sensor has reached the end of its service life:
After faults have been cleared, press and hold the S1 button on the control board for 20s to reset
the unit. After resetting, all the LED indicators are lit for 2s before they become dimmed. The R32
sensor life recorded by the control board EEPROM is cleared. Communication between the sensor
and the control board for the detection device is automatically restored.
2. The communication connection between the control board for the detection device and the
adapter board 1/2/3 is shown in Figure 1 below.
