SiBE05-722ED Control SpecificationFunction and Control 523.12 Malfunctions3.12.1 Sensor Malfunction DetectionSensor malfunction can be detected in the following thermistors:1. Outdoor heat exchanger thermistor2. Discharge pipe thermistor3. Radiation fin thermistor4. Outdoor temperature thermistor3.12.2 Detection of Overcurrent and OverloadOutline An excessive output current is detected and the OL temperature is observed to protect thecompressor.Detail If the OL (compressor head) temperature exceeds 120°C, the system shuts down thecompressor. If the inverter current exceeds 9.25 A, the system shuts down the compressor.3.12.3 Refrigerant Shortage DetectionI: Detecting by power consumptionIf the power consumption is below the specified value and the frequency is higher than thespecified frequency, it is regarded as refrigerant shortage.The power consumption is low comparing with that in the normal operation when refrigerant isinsufficient, and refrigerant shortage is detected by checking power consumption.II: Detecting by discharge pipe temperatureIf the discharge pipe temperature is higher than the target discharge pipe temperature, and theelectronic expansion valve is fully open for more than the specified time, it is regarded asrefrigerant shortage.III: Detecting by the difference of temperatureIf the difference between suction and discharge temperature is smaller than the specified value,it is regarded as refrigerant shortage.Refer to page 68 for detail.FrequencyPower consumption Refrigerant shortage zone55 Hz(R11384)(R1391)Target dischargepipe temperatureRefrigerant shortagezone
