Troubleshooting and Corrective Action
Trouble
Source
Action
No heating or cooling by the
unit despite of fan running
Cold or hot water supply not
operating
Heat exchanger and water supply
lines have room temperature
Ensure cold or hot water supply
Check and remove trouble
Check fan coil unit shut-off valve
No air movement at the unit's
outlet grille
The unit's fan is not operating
Put fan into operation. If necessary,
force starting with highest speed level
Check fan power supply. If necessary,
replace fuses or switch on main power
supply
Replace drive unit.
No control signal is applied to
the (valve) actuator, or it is not
the one according to setting
Deficient control
Have unit checked by a specialized tech
nician replacing or repairing broken
parts
No valve spindle movement
when actuator motor signal is
being changed
Actuator is stuck
Try to release the stuck actuator by set
ting the temperature controller from
”max. hot” to ”max. cold” and vice versa.
If unsuccessful, remove actuator, clean
or replace
Unit is heating or cooling, but
set temperature is not achieved
Window is open
Close window
Despite highest fan speed only
weak air movement at the fan
diffuser
Filter or heat exchanger polluted
Suction or diffuser opening blocked
or polluted
Replace filter
Clean heat exchanger
Remove objects in front of the diffuser
and protective grille.
Observe a minimum distance of 10 cm
in front of the casing.
Measured cold water tempera
ture is lower than the setting
(ask technician for setting).
Therefore, diffused air temper
ature is extremely low
Cold water temperature to the units
is too low
Check cold water control including valve
and actuator. If necessary, restore
proper settings, replace or repair
broken parts
Part of the condensate trays is
overflowing despite of drainage
system
Condensate drainage system
clogged
Remove clogging
In the meantime, increase inlet tempera
ture or shut off unit
Unit drips
Leaking or overflowing condensate
tray
Replace leaking condensate tray
Check condensate pump
Check drainage system
Increased room air humidity
perceivable
Considerable moisture sources in
the room
Remove moisture sources
If impossible, temporarily shut off unit
water-side
Water inlet/return temperature
difference too low
Fan not running or not conveying
sufficient air
Inlet temperature too high in the
cooling mode
Water volume possibly too high
Check fan and terminals
Maybe speed is too low
Check temperature and cooling circuit
Heat exchanger and filter polluted
Check water volume balancing
