WARNING
Troubleshooting General Errors
If the safety devices stopped chiller operation, identify and resolve the problem(s) before restart.
• If the chiller is not operating, check the power, refrigerant, configuration, and error settings.
• To troubleshoot the power supply / wiring, check the voltage connected to the chiller terminal block in the control panel. If there is no power,
check if the circuit breaker has tripped.
• If the power is properly connected, check the chiller refrigerant cycle pressure to verify if it is within the normal range.
• If the chiller refrigerant cycle pressure exceeds the normal range, check for leaks within the piping system.
• Before restarting the chiller, return it the default setting.
• Check the error codes; error codes can be view using the HMI device.
• If there is /are (an) error code(s) the alarm is turned on, see the Error Code tables to troubleshoot specific errors.
