OF
BREAKDOWNS
Symptom
Cause
Solution
Evaporation pressure very high in relation with
the air inlet
a) Load excess
b) High air temperature
c) Compressor suction not air tight
d) Cycle reversing valve in middle position
a) Collect refrigerant
b) Verify overheating
c) Verify compressor state and replace
d) Check that the valve is not clogged. Replace if
necessary
Very low condensation pressure
a) Gas lack
b) Compressor suction not air tight
c) Cycle inversion valve in middle position
d) Liquid circuit plugging
a) Search for leaks, complete charge
b) Verify compressor state and replace
c) Check that the valve is not clogged. Replace if
necessary
d) Verify the dehydrating fi lter and expansion valve
Condensation pressure very high in relation to the
air outlet, high pressostat cutoff
a) Insuffi cient air fl ow
b) Air inlet temperature very high
c) Dirty condenser (does not exchange)
d) Much refrigerant load (fl ooded condenser)
e) The condenser fan is broken down
f) Air in the cooling circuit
a) Verify the air circuits (fl ow, fi lter cleanliness...)
b) Verify the control thermostat readjustment
c) Clean it
d) Collect refrigerant
e) Repair
f) Make vacuum and load
Evaporation pressure too low (low pressostat
cutoff)
a) Low fl ow in evaporator. Air recirculation
b) Frozen evaporator
c) Liquid line as different temperatures at fi lter inlet
and outlet
d) Gas lack
e) Very low condensation pressure
f) Evaporator fan broken down
a) Verify the air circuits (fl ow, fi lter cleanliness...)
b) Verify defrost
c) Replace fi lter
d) Search for leaks, complete load
e) Temperature of air or water in condenser very low
(air or water fl ow very high), adjust fl ow
f) Repair
Compressor does not start, does not make noise
(humming)
a) No power
b) The contacts of a control element are open
c) Timing of anti cycle short does not allow the starting
d) Open contact
e) Contactor coil burnt
f) Indoor Klixon open
a) Check differential, fuses
b) Verify the safety chain of the electronic control
c) Verify electronic control
d) Replace
e) Replace
f) Wait for reactivation, verify intensity absorbed
Compressor does not start, motor sounds
intermittently
a) Electrical power supply very low
b) Power cable disconnected
a) Control line voltage and locate voltage drop
b) Verify connections
Repeated compressor starts and stops
a) Because of high pressure
b) Control differential too short (short cycle)
c) Gas lack, cutoff because of low pressure
d) Dirty or frosted evaporator
e) The evaporator fan does not work, cuts off the low
pressostat
f) Expansion valve damaged or clogged by impurities
(cuts off low pressostat)
g) Dehydrating fi lter clogged (cuts off low safety)
a) Verify load
b) Increase differential
c) Search for leak, reload unit
d) Clean, verify evaporator air circuit
e) Replace or repair
f) Replace, as well as fi lter
g) Replace
The compressor makes a noise
a) Loose attachment
b) Oil lack
c) Compressor noise
a) Fix
b) Add oil to recommended level
c) Replace
Noisy operation
a) Unit installed without antivibration protection
a) Place base over shock absorbers
Cycle reversing is not carried out:
- No
defrosting
- Does not change winter - summer cycles
a) Electrical fault
b) Inversion valve coil defective
c) Defrost method not working
d) Cycle inversion valve in middle position
e) Control fault
a) Locate and repair
b) Replace
c) Verify parameters
d) Tap with running compressor Replace if necessary
e) Locate and repair
