Discharge Temperature Control (Cooling and Heating)
This function prevents the compressor motor from burnout by overheating.

Chart Summary and Explanations
❑
Discharge temperature is sensed by TH8 (discharge gas sensor).
❑
When the temperature rises above 203°F the electronic refrigerant control valve opens at
50 steps/30 seconds until the temperature falls below 200°F.
❑
During HEATING operation, when the temperature rises above 221°F, the control circuit
stops the outdoor fan motor until the temperature falls below 194°F. Please note that this
control does not function during COOLING operation.
❑
For both COOLING and HEATING modes, if the temperature reaches 239°F the operation
shuts down and alarm P3 appears on the remote controller.
❑
The outdoor fan speed is controlled on discharge temp. at heating mode.
