Alarm

The compressor
overload has
tripped.

NOTE: This alarm
is available only on
models with semi-
hermetic compressor
sizes 15 Hp and
above.

The Oil Safety
input is open.

NOTE: This alarm
can be present only
on models with
compressor sizes
15 Hp and above.

Possible cause

Is the correct voltage
supplied to the motor on
the compressor?

Is the overload faulty or
set incorrectly?

Is the compressor faulty?

Oil level in the compres-
sor is low, or the input
has failed.

Solution

Supply voltage should match
the rating on the motor name
plate. If voltage is correct,
check wiring connections.

Disconnect the power and
open the electrical enclosure
for the compressor. Verify that
the overload is set to trip at the
proper amperage, which
should not exceed the FLA.
Manually trip and reset the
overload. If the problem con-
tinues, replace the overload.

Replace the compressor if
supply voltage, wiring and
overload settings are correct,
but the pump continues to
draw excessive current.
