Stop Operation 

The stop operation occurs for one of the three following reasons: 

1.

 

Abnormal shutdown: in order to protect the compressors, if an abnormal state occurs the system makes a 'stop with 
thermo off' operation and an error code is displayed on the digital display. 

2.

 

The system stops when the set temperature has been reached. 

3.

 

A unit stops when the load demanded by the indoor units decreases and can be handled by fewer outdoor units. 

 
When a unit stops because the load demanded by the indoor units has decreased and can be handled by fewer outdoor 
units, the unit's four-way valve remains on until the load demanded by the indoor units increases and the unit is required 
to operate. When the whole system stops, all the units' four-way valves turn off.

Standby Control 

3.1

 

Crankcase Heater Control 

The crankcase heater is used to prevent refrigerant from mixing with compressor oil when the compressors are stopped. 
The  crankcase  heater  is  controlled  according  to  outdoor  ambient  temperature  and  discharge  temperature.  When  the 
outdoor ambient temperature is above 40°C, the crankcase heater is off; when the outdoor ambient temperature is below 
35°C, the crankcase heater is controlled according to discharge temperature. Refer to Figures 3-3.1 and 3-3.2.
