SHOOTING

PROBLEM

CAUSE

SYMPTOM

REMEDY

A

Tank water outlet 
temperature 

BTWOT

 

higher than the expected 

value.

A1

Thermal load too high.

A1.1

Temperature 

BTWOT

 

greater than expected 

value.

Restore the thermal load to 

within the preset limits.

A2

Ambient temperature too 

high.

A2.1

See A1.1

In the event of installation in a 

closed place, if it is possible, 

increase the change air flow 

into the installation location, to 

restore the ambient 

temperature to within the 

preset limits.

A3

Condenser fins are dirty.

A3.1

See A1.1

Clean the condenser fins.

A4

Front surface of the 

condenser obstructed.

A4.1

See A1.1

Free the front surface of the 

condenser.

A5

Lack of refrigerant in the 

plant.

A5.1

• See 

A1.1

;

• evaporating pressure too 

low;

• a lot of bubbles in the liquid 

indicator.

Get a refrigerator technician to 

check for leaks and eliminate 

them.

Fill the plant.

A6

Compressor protection 

trips.

A6.1

• The head and the body of 

the compressor are very 

hot;

• the compressor stops and 

try to start up again after 

few seconds.

Get a refrigerator technician to 

check for leaks and eliminate 

them.

Fill the plant.

B

Low pressure drop (water 

pressure) at pump outlet.

B1

Water flow too high. 

Wrong working of the 

pump (high flow, low 

discharge head, high 

absorption).

B1.1

• Possible increase in the 

outlet temperature 

BTWOT

 

(see A1.1);

• with pump installed on the 

machine: pressure 

difference, read on the 

machine pressure gauge, 

too low with pump stopped 

and pump running;

• possible tripping of pump 

thermal protection.

Reduce water flow to within 

the preset limits, for example 

by closing partially a pump 

outlet cock.

Reset the pump thermal 

protection and check the 

electrical absorption.

B2

See point C.

B2.1

See point C.

See point C.

B3

Evaporator obstructed 

because of dirt transported 

by the utilization water.

B3.1

High water temperature 

difference between 

input and outlet.

Depending on the type of dirt:

• clean the evaporator by 

running a detergent 

solution which is not 

aggressive for steel, 

aluminium and copper;

• run a high water flow 

against the stream.

Install a filter upstream from 

the unit.

C

Water differential pressure 

switch FLOW alarm trips.

Alarm displayed:

A08

C1

The filter upstream from 

the unit is obstructed, if 

installed.

C1.1

• Water does not flow.

Pressure difference 

between inlet and outlet 

lower than 25mbar.

• Alarm displayed: A08.
• main alarm relay tripped.

Clean the upstream filter, if 

installed.

Follow the alarm reset 

procedure to star up the unit 

again (chapter Electronic 

Board).

C2

The pump is defective or 

rotate in the wrong 

direction. (three-phases 

supply).

C2.1

• See 

C1.1

;

• main alarm relay tripped.

Check the pump electrical 

supply and, if it is necessary, 

invert the two phases. 

Follow the alarm reset 

procedure to star up the unit 

again (chapter Electronic 

Board).

C3

Water inlet-outlet inverted 

(units without hydraulic 

kit).

C3.1

• See 

C1.1

;

• main alarm relay tripped.

Invert the water inlet-outlet.

Follow the alarm reset 

procedure to star up the unit 

again (chapter Electronic 

Board).
