(9) Pump-down control
Turning ON the pump-down switch SW8-3 for 2 seconds during the operation stop or anomalous stop (excluding the
thermostat OFF), the pump-down operation is performed. (This is invalid when the indoor unit is operating. This is
effective even when the indoor unit is stopped by the anomalous stop or the power source is turned OFF.)
(a) Control contents
(i) Close the service valve at the liquid side. (It is left open at the gas side.)
(ii) Compressor is started with the target speed (frequency) at 45 rps in the cooling mode.
(iii) Red and green lamps (LED) flash continuously on the outdoor unit control PCB.
(iv)
Each of protection and error detection controls, excluding the low pressure control, anti-frost control and dewing
prevention control, is effective.
(v)
Outdoor fan is controlled as usual.
(vi) Electronic expansion valve is fully opened.
(b) Control ending conditions
Stop control is initiated depending on any of the following conditions.
(i) Low pressure of 0.087MPa or lower is detected for 5 seconds continuously.
1) Red LED: Light, Green LED: Flashing, Remote control: Displays stop.
2) It is possible to restart when the low pressure is 0.087MPa or higher.
3) Electronic expansion valve (cooling/heating) is kept fully open.
(ii) Stop by the error detection control
1) Red LED: Keeps flashing, Green LED: Flashing
2) Restart is prohibited. To return to normal operation, reset the power source.
3) Electronic expansion valve (cooling/heating) is left fully open.
(iii) When the cumulative operation time of compressor under the pump-down control becomes 5 minutes.
1) Red LED: Stays OFF, Green LED: Flashing, Remote control: Stop
2) It is possible to pump-down again.
3) Electronic expansion valve (cooling/heating) is left fully open.
Note (1) After the stop of compressor, close the service valve at the gas side.
Caution: Since pressing the pump-down switch cancels communications with the indoor unit, the indoor unit and the remote
control display “Transmission error – E5”. This is normal.
