Trouble Shooting
FOR; HC-XXACI, HC-XXSACI & HC-XXPACI AIR COOLED CHILLERS / With YIKE XMTD-6000 Temperature Controller ( For New Chillers with Digital Controllers, see MANUAL ) Before attempting to repair a fault, check to be sure the power supply is stable and |
||
Fault | Possible fault causes | Solutions |
Wrong phase |
A – Power supply phases are in reverse order B – Faulty phase protector relay |
A – Randomly switch any 2 phases other than ground B – Replace phase protector relay |
Overload pump |
A – Over current B – Faulty pump contactor or overload relay C – Faulty water pump |
A – Reset overload relay and adjust Amps if necessary B – Replace faulty part C – Replace water pump |
Overload compressor |
A – Over current B – Faulty compressor contactor or overload relay C – Faulty compressor D – Dirty condenser E – Chiller size too small for the application |
A – Reset overload relay and adjust Amps if necessary B – Replace faulty part C – Replace compressor D – Clean condenser coils |
Pressure too high / Abnormal |
Turn off the power & restart chiller, watch the high pressure gauge “IF” freon high pressure gauge exceeds 2.5 Mpa. check the following; A – Dirty condenser B – Faulty condenser fan C – Working environment temperature too high D – Faulty temperature controller E – Temperature setting too low F – Chiller load capacity exceeded “IF” freon pressure does not reach 2.5 Mpa & high pressure alarm error G – Low voltage supply. below 195 VAC or 460 VAC H – Loose electrical connection I – Faulty high pressure switch J – Electrical relay KA2, bad contact |
A – Clean condenser coils B – Replace fan C – Relocate chiller to a larger working area. Chiller needs 3 feet clearance around D – Check for temperature controller Accuracy E – Temperature setting over 6 C (42 F) F – Decrease load or use a bigger chiller G – Minimum 195V for 3Ph 220V chillers Minimum 460V for 3Ph 480V H – Check for loose or broken electric wires I – Replace faulty part J – Replace relay |
Pressure too low / Abnormal |
A – Low refrigerant B – Low water flow C – Faulty low pressure switch or low pressure relay KA1 |
A – Find and repair refrigerant leak and refill refrigerant (refer to table below for refrigerant requirements) B – Check water lines, Clear water line blockage, check water pump C – Replace faulty part |
