ALARMS

 

 

 

A01

General alarm

Input from AI3  Leads to shut down of IPS 8

Fault in system connected to the DIO4

Input from AI3  Leads to shut down of IPS 9

E01

Temp Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from temperature sensor 
(R452a)

Broken wire to R452a temperature sensor 

Repair temperature sensor wire or replace 
temperature sensor 

E01

Temp Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from temperature sensor 
(R452a)

Electrical supply failure supplying R452a 
temperature sensor 

Repair or replace power source 

E01

Temp Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from temperature sensor 
(R452a)

Temperature measurement of  the R452a line 
is out of range 

Compare temperature with another 
temperature sensor reading and replace 
temperature sensor if  needed

E02

BPL Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from pressure transmitter 
(R452a)

Broken wire to R452A pressure transmitter 

Repair pressure transmitter wire or replace 
pressure transmitter 

E02

BPL Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from pressure transmitter 
(R452a)

Electrical supply failure to the R422a pressure 
transmitter 

Repair or replace power source 

E02

BPL Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from pressure transmitter 
(R452a)

Pressure measurement of  the R452a line is out 
of range 

Compare pressure with another pressure 
reading and replace pressure transmitter if  
needed 

E03

BPL Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from pressure transmitter 
(R717)

Broken wire to R717 pressure transmitter 

Repair pressure transmitter wire or replace 
pressure transmitter 

E03

BPL Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from pressure transmitter 
(R717)

Electrical supply failure to the R717 pressure 
transmitter 

Repair or replace power source 

E03

BPL Sensor Fault

Indicates no signal from pressure transmitter 
(R717)

Pressure measurement of  the R717 line is out 
of range 

Compare pressure with another pressure 
reading and replace pressure transmitter if  
needed 

E04

Low temperature

Indicates too low ambient temperature 
(<-10 °C)

Too low ambient temperature

Move the IPS to a higher ambient temperature 

E05

High  temperature

Indicates too high ambient temperature 
(>120 °C)

Too high ambient temperature

Move the IPS to a lower ambient temperature 

E05

High  temperature

Low R452a charge because of possible leak 

Locate and repair leak  Evacuate

Move the IPS to a lower ambient temperature

 

 

 

 

 

E06

Low pressure BPL

Indicates too low R717 pressure

Closed stop valve

Open inlet stop valve

E07

High pressure BPL

Indicates too high R717 pressure

Ammonia system pressure too high

Wait for lower pressure

E08

Low pressure BPH

Indicates too low R452a pressure

Low R452A charge

Find and repair leak, evacuate and recharge 
with R452a

E09

High pressure BPH

Indicates too high R452a pressure

R452s system pressure too high

Wait for lower pressure

E10

System is OFF

Indicates status of the main switch

Main switch is OFF

Switch ON the main switch

E11

Memory is full

A memory reset is required

Memory is full from long time operation

Clean MCX memory by means of finding 
Parameters_UnitConfig_

E12

Totla purge time error

This occurs when PLT is activated  System will 
automatically restart when CST has expired

Restrictor is blocked

Replace the restrictor

E13

Compressor ERROR

Indicates no status is being received from 
relay KL01

Possible broken wire from the MCX

Repair broken wire from the MCX

E14

Liquid alarm

Signal from the LLS that there is liquid in the 
evaporator

 

 

E15

Memory wrong!

Wrong counter values  The unit will 
automatically repair itself

 

 

E16

Discharge sensor error Indicates no signal from temperature sensor

 

 

E17

Suction sensor error

Indicates no signal from temperature sensor
