The output pulse shifts in above order.
• When linear expansion valve operation stops, all output phase
become OFF.
• When the switch is turned on, 700 pulse closing valve signal will be
sent till it goes to
A
point in order to define the valve position. (The
pulse signal is being sent for about 20 seconds.)
• When the valve moves smoothly, there is no sound or vibration
occurring from the linear expansion valve : however, when the pulse
number moves from
B
to
A
or when the valve is locked, sound can
be heard.
No sound is heard when the pulse number moves from
B
to
A
in
case coil is burnt out or motor is locked by open-phase.
• Sound can be detected by placing the ear against the screw driver
handle while putting the screw driver to the linear expansion valve.

Linear expansion valve
(1) Operation summary of the linear expansion valve
• Linear expansion valve opens/closes through stepping motor after receiving the pulse signal from the outdoor controller board.
• Valve position can be changed in proportion to the number of pulse signal.
