Troubleshooting – Unit
Always have a completed Pre-Start-Up Checklist and Start-Up Checklist prior to requesting parts or service information.
Symptom
Possible Cause
Corrective Action
Blower fails
to operate
Blown fuse or open circuit breaker.
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker and check amps.
Defective motor or capacitor.
Replace.
Motor overloaded.
Reset VFD and check amps.
Electrical.
Check for On/Off switches. Check for correct supply
voltage. Check Control wiring.
Motor
starters
“chatter” or
do not pull in
Control power (24 VAC) wiring run is too
long. (Resistance should not
exceed 0.75 ohms).
Shorten wiring run to mechanical room or install a relay
to turn unit on/off. Consult factory for relay information.
Increase wire gauge size so that resistance is 0.75 ohms
or less.
Incoming supply power is less than
anticipated. Voltage supplied to starter
coil must be 10% / -15% of
nominal voltage stated on the coil.
Need to increase supply power or use a special control
transformer which is sized for the actual supply power.
Motor over
amps
Static pressures are higher than design.
Check for dirty filters. Improve ductwork.
Motor voltage incorrect.
Check motor wiring. Check motor nameplate versus
supplied voltage.
Motor horsepower too low.
See specifications and catalog for fan curves to
determine if horsepower is sufficient.
Shorted windings in motor.
Replace motor.
Low airflow
(cfm)
Unit damper not fully open.
Adjust damper linkage or replace damper motor.
System static pressure too high.
Improve ductwork to eliminate losses using good duct
practices.
Blower speed too low.
Check maximum motor RPM and compare with catalog
data. Verify that external control wiring is in place if
required.
Fan wheels are operating backwards.
For 3-phase, see Direction of Fan Wheel Rotation
Direction in Start-Up, Components section.
Dirty filter.
Replace filters or follow cleaning procedures in Routine
Maintenance section of this manual.
Leaks in ductwork.
Repair.
Elbows or other obstructions may be
obstructing fan outlet.
Correct or improve ductwork.
High airflow
(cfm)
Blower fan speed too high.
Check for correct maximum fan RPM. Decrease
maximum fan speed if necessary in the VFD.
Filter(s) not in place.
Install filters.
Insufficient static pressure (Ps).
(airflow resistance)
Induce Ps into system ductwork. Make sure grilles
and access doors are installed. Decrease fan speed if
necessary.
Excessive
noise or
vibration
Fan wheel rubbing on inlet.
Adjust wheel and/or inlet cone. Tighten wheel hub or
bearing collars on shaft.
Bearings.
Replace defective bearing(s). Lubricate bearings. Tighten
collars and fasteners.
Loose wheel on shaft.
Tighten wheel hub.
Motor base or blower loose.
Tighten mounting bolts.
Noise being transmitted by duct.
Make sure ductwork is supported properly. Make sure
ductwork metal thickness is sized for proper stiffness.
Check duct size at discharge to ensure that air velocities
are not too high.
