Pressure, discharge temperature and fan protections
What happens, in order
- High pressure switch open for a short time: system shuts down and shows E1; first occurrence restarts once the switch recloses
- Second high-pressure trip within the set period: no automatic restart; switch the unit off, clear the cause and restart
- Low pressure switch open for a short time: shuts down and shows E3; restarts if the switch recloses within a few minutes; repeated trips block auto restart until switched off
- Discharge temperature sensor open for a short time: shuts down and shows E4; restarts if it recloses within a few minutes; repeated trips block auto restart
- Heating high-temperature prevention when the indoor coil sensor reaches a set value, the outdoor fan slows
- Overload (H4) is raised when condensing pressure exceeds the protection value
