7.0 ALARMS AND WARNINGS
7.1 Introduction
With its simple design in the interest of efficiency, The Swift-E Load Bank has few areas
for failure. In the unlikely event that an issue arises, you will find how to address these
issues in this section.
In this section, you will learn:
— Common alarms and warnings and how to address them.
7.2 Explanation of Failure
If the load bank exhaust air exceeds the set point (175° F) of the exhaust temperature
switch (EXTS), a cooling failure is initiated. The
Swift-E and Swift-E+ Load Banks control circuitry
de-energizes the load steps during a cooling fail-
ure. Cooling failure relay contacts in series with
the cooling failure lamp close, and the lamp is
illuminated.
7.3 Resolution for a Failure
If the over temperature alarm is triggered, the
Swift-E Load Bank should be reset by power cycling the unit—powering completely
down then powering it back on. The unit should be off for a couple of seconds. Before
restarting the unit, check for the cause of failure. This step is imperative for the safety of
the unit and load bank operators.
7.4 Circuit Breaker Trips
If the circuit breaker is tripped, remove the six (6) faceplate screws on the unit to access
the circuit breaker.
Note: It is important to in-
vestigate all cooling failures.
Unresolved cooling issues
can cause serious issues
later in the load bank's life
cycle.
