PROBLEM

CAUSE

SOLUTION

In the start-up phase the 
low pressure protection 
is activated (only for self-
contained units)

The “Valve opening at start-up” parameter is set 
too low

Check the calculation in reference to the ratio between the rated cooling capacity of the evapo-
rator and the capacity of the valve; if necessary increase the value.

The driver in RS485 network does not start control 
and the valve remains closed

Check the serial connection. Check that the pCO application connected to the driver (where fea-
tured) correctly manages the driver start signal. Check that the driver is NOT in stand-alone mode.

The driver in stand-alone configuration does not 
start control and the valve remains closed

Check the connection of the digital input. Check that when the control signal is sent that the 
input is closed correctly. Check that the driver is in stand-alone mode.

LOP protection disabled

Set a LOP integration time greater than 0 s.

LOP protection ineffective

Make sure that the LOP protection threshold is at the required saturated evaporation temperature 
(between the rated evaporation temperature of the unit and the corresponding temperature at 
the calibration of the low pressure switch) and decrease the value of the LOP integration time.

Solenoid blocked

Check that the solenoid opens correctly, check the electrical connections.

Insufficient refrigerant

Check that there are no bubbles in the sight glass upstream of the expansion valve. Check that 
the subcooling is suitable (greater than 5 °C); otherwise charge the circuit.

The valve is connected incorrectly (rotates in re-
verse) and is open

Check the movement of the valve by placing it in manual control and closing or opening it com-
pletely. One complete opening must bring a decrease in the superheat and vice-versa. If the 
movement is reversed, check the electrical connections.

Stator broken or connected incorrectly

Disconnect the stator from the valve and the cable and measure the resistance of the windings 
using an ordinary tester. The resistance of both should be around 36 ohms. Otherwise replace 
the stator. Finally, check the electrical connections of the cable to the driver (see paragraph 5.1).

Valve stuck closed

Use manual control after start-up to completely open the valve. If the superheat remains high, 
check the electrical connections and/or replace the valve.

The unit switches off due 
to low pressure during 
control (only for self-con-
tained units)

LOP protection disabled

Set a LOP integration time greater than 0 s.

LOP protection ineffective

Make sure that the LOP protection threshold is at the required saturated evaporation temperature 
(between the rated evaporation temperature of the unit and the corresponding temperature at 
the calibration of the low pressure switch) and decrease the value of the LOP integration time.

Solenoid blocked

Check that the solenoid opens correctly, check the electrical connections and the operation of 
the control relay.

Insufficient refrigerant

Check that there are no bubbles of air in the liquid indicator upstream of the expansion valve. 
Check that the subcooling is suitable (greater than 5 °C); otherwise charge the circuit.

The valve is significantly undersized

Replace the valve with a larger equivalent.

Stator broken

Enable the manual positioning and check the opening and closure of the valve.

Valve stuck closed

Use manual control after start-up to completely open the valve. If the superheat remains high, 
replace the valve body.

The cabinet does not 
reach the set tempera-
ture, despite the value 
being opened to the ma-
ximum (for multiplexed 
cabinets only)

Solenoid blocked

Check that the solenoid opens correctly, check the electrical connections and the operation of the relay.

Insufficient refrigerant

Check that there are no bubbles of air in the liquid indicator upstream of the expansion valve. 
Check that the subcooling is suitable (greater than 5 °C); otherwise charge the circuit.

The valve is significantly undersized

Replace the valve with a larger equivalent.

Stator broken

Enable the manual positioning and check the opening and closure of the valve.

Valve stuck closed

Use manual control after start-up to completely open the valve. If the superheat remains high, 
replace the valve body.

The cabinet does not 
reach the set temperatu-
re, and the position of the 
valve is always 0 (for mul-
tiplexed cabinets only)

The driver in RS485 network does not start control 
and the valve remains closed

Check the network connections. Check that the pCO application connected to the driver (where fe-
atured) correctly manages the driver start signal. Check that the driver is NOT in stand-alone mode.

The driver in stand-alone configuration does not 
start control and the valve remains closed

Check the connection of the digital input. Check that when the control signal is sent that the 
input is closed correctly. Check that the driver is in stand-alone mode.
