Check on the LED monitor dis-
play.
• TH2 or LPS of outdoor unit.
• HPS of outdoor unit
• PS1, PS3 of BC controller and
confirm the following relationship
HPS > PS1
PS3 > TH2 or LPS
(puressure calculated value)
Check that refrigerant pip-
ing and transmission line
connections are in agree-
ment between outdoor
unit and BC controller.
START
Check pressure sensor, PS1,
PS3, connectors for discon-
nection, looseness, or incor-
rect attachment.
OK?
Stop the unit (compres-
sor OFF).
At least
10 minutes passed since
stopping?
Check PS1, PS3 on LED
monitor display and confirm
that none of the detected
pressure values is below
1kg/cm

Change board.
Repair faulty connection.
Change pres-
sure sensor.
OK?
Replace the wrong
puressure sensor with the
correct pressure sensor, and
confirm It’s detected pres-
sure is indicated correctly.
Short connectors 2 and 3 on the
board and check the pressure.

Remove the pressure sensor
connector from the board, and
check the pressure.
Check for faulty connector on
applicable pressure sensor.
Correct refrigerant
