Troubleshooting by Indication on the Remote Controller
SiUS30-1301
242
Service Diagnosis
Check for Causes of Drop in Low Pressure
Referring to the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) shown below, probe the defective points.
Note:
1: For details of the compressor capacity control while in cooling, refer to
Compressor PI Control
.
2: The “low pressure protection control” includes low pressure protection control and hot gas
bypass control.
3: In cooling, the indoor unit electronic expansion valve is used for
superheated degree control
.
4: In heating, the condensing unit electronic expansion valve (EVM) is used for
superheated
degree control of condensing unit heat exchanger
.
