Method of
Malfunction
Detection
The discharge pipe temperature control (stop, frequency drooping, etc.) is checked with the
temperature being detected by the discharge pipe thermistor.
Malfunction
Decision
Conditions
2YC45, 2YC63
If the temperature being detected by the discharge pipe thermistor rises above 120°C, the
compressor will stop. (The error is cleared when the temperature has dropped below 107°C.)
2YC32
The temperature at which the compressor halts varies according to the frequency.
(1) 110°C when the frequency is above 45 Hz on ascending or above 40 Hz on descending.
(2) 102°C when the frequency is between 30 Hz and 45 Hz on ascending or between 40Hz and
25Hz on descending.
(3) 98°C when the frequency is below 30 Hz on ascending or below 25 Hz on descending.
If the compressor stops 6 times straight due to abnormal discharge pipe temperature, the
system will be shut down.
The error counter will reset itself if this or any other error does not occur during the following
60-minute compressor running time (total time).
Supposed
Causes
Refrigerant shortage
Four way valve malfunctioning
Discharge pipe thermistor defective
(heat exchanger or outdoor temperature thermistor defective)
Outdoor unit PCB defective
Water mixed in the local piping
Electronic expansion valve defective
Stop valve defective
