PFC (Power Factor Correction) Protection

Status:

During cooling & dehumidifying, indoor unit

operates while other functions stop; During

heating operation, complete unit stops

Check for damage to the reactor and PFC

capacitor of the outdoor unit

2. Refer to troubleshooting procedure below

Error Code Diagnostics

HC Error Code

Start Troubleshooting

Correct according

to circuit diagram.

Yes

Is problem

corrected?

Check wiring of the reactor

(L) and PFC capacitor

(Outdoor Unit)

Are wires connected proper

with no short circuits?

Are wires connected proper

with no short circuits?

Remove the PFC Capacitor

and test resistance of the

two terminals.

Is the resistance

about zero?

Replace the

capacitor

Yes

Is problem

corrected?

Yes

Disconnect the reactor wires & measure

the resistance between the two terminals

of the reactor

Replace the reactor

Yes

Is problem

corrected?

Yes

Replace the AP1

control panel

End Troubleshooting

Is the reactor

damaged or

shorted?
