Troubleshooting Guide
WARNING!
The troubleshooting guidelines recommended in this section 
could result in exposure to electrical safety hazards. Please 
refer to the safety warnings provided in this manual. Failure 
to follow all of the recommended safety warnings provided 
could result in death or serious injury. When possible, 
Power off
Check main disconnect switch
Main line open
Check main fuses
Incorrect wiring
Check the wiring diagram
Loose terminals/connections
Tighten the terminal connections
Control circuit open
Check interlocks with auxiliary equipment, pressure and 
temperature controls 
Improper phasing of main power
Change any two of three phases of main power
Low voltage
Check at main power entry and unit power entry (consult power 
company if low) 
Phase loss
Check power wiring and fuses
Improper phasing of main power
Switch any two of three phases of main power
Main chilled water valve closed or restricted Open
valve
to
full
open
position
Module chilled water isolation valves, if 
provided, closed or restricted 
Open valves to full open position
Refrigerant storage
Check for leaks Ȃ add refrigerant
No load on water chiller
Check water pump operation
Restriction in liquid line
Plugged liquid line drier Ȃ replace liquid line drier
Expansion valve clogged or inoperative Repair/replace
the
expansion
valve
Low discharge pressure
Raise and control discharge pressure within design limits
Low water flow through the cooler
Check water flow through the cooler
Chilled water temperature too cold
Raise water temperature setpoint
Fouled evaporator brazed plate heat exchanger
Clean-in-place heat exchanger as described in IOM (page 31)
Improper chilled water circulation
Use an ample sized cleanable strainer in the chilled water circuit; 
make certain the strainer is clean to insure full flow of chilled 
water (strainer screen must be 60 mesh minimum) 
Faulty suction pressure transducer
Verify transducer calibration using a calibrated manifold gauge 
and replace if defective 
Wrong suction pressure cutout setpoint
Verify suction pressure cutout setpoint to be set equal to the 
corresponding leaving chilled solution freeze temperature 
equivalent pressure on a PT chart. (i.e. If the solution freeze point 
is 32
o
F, the equivalent pressure setpoint will be 101 psig.)
disconnect all electrical power including remote disconnects 
before servicing. Follow proper lockout-tagout procedures. 
Ƥ
handle live electrical components should only be allowed 
to work with energized electrical components.
