Situation 2: L1 or L2 error appears after the compressor has been running for a period of time and the compressor 

speed is over 20rps 

L1 /L2

 

 

 

     

 

 

Relay on main PCB is open 

Yes 

Replace the main PCB or transformer 

  No 

 

 

PFC on inverter module is damaged

1

 

Yes 

Replace the inverter module

2

 

Notes:  

1.

If the fan motor is running and the DC voltage between terminals P and N on inverter module is not 380V, the PFC is damaged.

   

2.

When replacing an inverter module, a layer of thermally conductive silica gel should be painted on the PFC and IPM modules (on the reverse side of the 
inverter module PCB). Refer to Figure 4-4.1.
