Solution

High Level Fault

24

W

Fluid level higher than

parameter setting.

Verify value in parameter

Too much fluid in system

Open drain valve and remove
some fluid from system so that
level is below high level fault.

Tank sensor failure

Replace sensor

High Level Warning

25

W

Fluid level higher than
parameter setting.

Verify value in parameter

Too much fluid in system

Open drain valve and remove
some fluid from system so that
level is below high level

warning.

Tank sensor failure

Replace sensor

Compressor Differential Pressure
Fault

26

CC

Low discharge pressure or
high suction pressure

Contact customer service

High Suction Pressure Warning

27

W

From Process fluid
temperature too high

Verify flow through system.
Make corrections as necessary.

Low Discharge Pressure Warning

28

W

Ambient air or condenser
water temperature too low

Verify ambient air temperature
and air flow or condenser inlet
water temperature.

Too little refrigerant in
system.

Contact customer service for
service call

Water cooled condenser valve
stuck open

Verify cooling valve operation.

Fan VFD output at 100%

Verify VFD is in remote versus
manual operation. Verify
controller output to VFD.

Low Fluid Temp Warning

29

W

Low Level Warning

30

W

Fluid level lower than

parameter setting.

Verify value in parameter. Add

fluid to the system if necessary

Optional Water Makeup valve
failure

Verify wiring between
controller and makeup valve.
Replace valve if necessary

Tank sensor failure

Replace sensor

Compressor Differential Pressure
Warning

31

W

Low discharge pressure or
high suction pressure

Contact customer service

Low Suction Pressure Warning

32

W

System low on refrigerant

Contact Customer Service

Liquid line valves closed

Verify wiring or output between
controller and valve

Chilled fluid setpoint too
close to freeze protection
setpoint.

Adjust setpoint or fluid
freezepoint temperature (will
require adding glycol to fluid)

Process fluid flow rate too
low.

Verify system valve operation
and adjust if necessary

Thermal expansion valve
failure.

Contact Customer Service

Pump Down Override Time
Expired

W

Liquid line valve open

Contact customer service
