Disconnect the lead wires and check the resistance between the compressor terminals.
<Measuring points>
Measure the AC voltages at the following three points on the transistor module.
BLK - WHT
BLK - RED
WHT - RED
<Judgment>
1.05 ~ 1.29
Ω
(MXZ-18RV), 0.47 ~ 0.58
Ω
(MXZ-32RV) at -10 °C ~ 40 °C of
winding temperature.
Zero (
Ω
) : Faulty (Short)
Infinite (
Ω
) : Faulty (Open)
NOTE 1 : Be sure to zero the tester before measurement.
NOTE 2 : The winding resistance is 1.2
Ω
(MXZ-18RV),0.54
Ω
(MXZ-32RV)
at 20°C for each phase.
Normal
(One to dozens of ohms)
Faulty
(Zero ohms or short)
Faulty
(Infinite or open)
• Connect the compressor, activate the inverter, and count time until the inverter stops due to overcurrent.
<Operating method>
Perform the test run in the cooling or heating mode by using the emergency operation switch on the indoor unit.
<Measuring point>
Count time from when the outdoor fan starts up until the inverter stops due to overcurrent.
<Judgment>
Inverter stops in 0 to 10 seconds : Faulty (Short)
Inverter stops in 10 to 60 seconds : Faulty (Compressor lock)
Inverter stops in 60 seconds to 5 minutes : Faulty (Refrigerant circuit defective)
Inverter operates for 5 minutes or more : Normal
