Alarm status

 

lit up

            →

 off 

   

Reverse Phase, Open Phase, Low Volt   

Reverse phase, open Phase, or low voltage

 

When the state of the compressor main power supply corresponds to following 
either and the state continues 3 seconds or more, all LED indicators light up. 

1.

 

Reverse phase 

2.

 

Open phase 

3.

 

Low voltage

  (

in case of nominal 170V or less

 

When a voltage drop arises at the time of starting, a compressor stops immediately, 
however the alarm is not turned on. It is because the voltage value returns to 
normal, shortly after stopping. In this case, a start and a stop might be repeated. 

Check and make sure that the line voltages (R-S, S-T, and T-R) of the power cable 
are within the rated value. If these voltages are within the rated value and all 
indicators are light up, there is a possibility of reverse phase.    Check the wiring of 
the main power supply referring to “Section 5.2

3

 Checking the compressor 

status and main power phase sequence”. 
If the input power supply voltage is low, check the input power line and the user’s 
power supply that has distributed electric power to the compressor. 
When there is an open phase(s), all indicators should be blinked or turned off. 
 

TS2

 

Over Temperature 

Over temperature

 

TS2 monitors the temperature of the compressor pump.  If TS2 is activated it 
means the compressor pump is in an unrecoverable abnormal condition. Please 
contact our Service Engineering Division or the nearest customer support center 
immediately.
