Method of Gas shortage detection I:
Gas shortage is detected by checking the input current value and the compressor running
Malfunction
frequency. If the gas is short, the input current is smaller than the normal value.
Detection
Gas shortage detection II:
Gas shortage is detected by checking the discharge temperature and the opening of the
electronic expansion valve. If the gas is short, the discharge temperature tends to rise.
Malfunction Gas shortage detection I (typical value):
The following conditions continue for 7 minutes.
Decision
Conditions
Gas shortage detection II:
The following conditions continue for 80 seconds.
If a gas shortage error takes place 4 times straight, the system will be shut down. The error
counter will reset itself if this or any other error does not occur during the following 60-minute
compressor running time (total time).
