Drain Pan Overflow Alarm
The drain pan overflow alarm is generated when the drain pan float switch detects an elevated level of water in the
condensate drain pan. When an overflow alarm is generated,
“
ALARM
” will be displayed next to “
Overflow Status
” on the
Alarms
screen.
The normally closed float switch, located in the condensate drain pan and will open if the water level if too high. After a 30
second delay, the Fl
ō
unit will shut down to prevent the water from overflowing out of the drain pan.
When the water level in the drain pan decreases and the float switch input closes, the drain pan overflow alarm will
automatically reset.
