    How to fix liquid hammer in the compressor of my Danfoss Controller?
    • D
      Deanna McdonaldAug 22, 2025
      Liquid hammer in the compressor of your Danfoss Controller can be caused by: * Superheat of expansion valve being too low: Increase the values of SH close and SH min. * Superheat reference set too low: Increase the value of SH min. * The S2 sensor not in good contact with the suction line: Ensure that the S2 sensor is secured on the suction line and insulate the sensor.

    What to do if all the light emitting diodes are flashing on my Danfoss EKC 316A?
    • P
      Pamela KentNov 2, 2025
      If all the light emitting diodes are flashing on your Danfoss Controller, there could be several reasons: * The S2 sensor might be cut-out or short-circuited: Check the connections at terminals 18-19 and the sensor. * The S3 sensor might be cut-out or short-circuited: Check the connections at terminals 18-20 and the sensor. * The pressure transmitter might be outside of its range: Inspect the pressure transmitter, the connections at 14-15, and the pressure. * There may be a High Temperature alarm: Verify that the cooling system is working effectively and check the thermostat relay at terminals 8-9. * There may be a Low Temperature alarm: Check that the ETS valve is fully open and the relay at terminals 8-9. * No refrigerant may be selected: Select a refrigerant. * There may ...

    Why is the suction pressure too low on my Danfoss EKC 316A?
    • D
      David GreenNov 10, 2025
      A low suction pressure on your Danfoss Controller can be caused by several factors: * The pressure drop across the evaporator may be too high. * There might be a lack of subcooling ahead of the expansion valve: Inspect the refrigerant ahead of the expansion valve. If the valve is placed much higher than the condenser outlet, check the pressure difference. * The evaporator superheat may be too high: Check the superheat performance, including the SH min and SH max settings. Also, check the valve capacity and ensure that the maximum number of valve steps matches parameter n37. * The pressure drop across the expansion valve might be less than what the valve is sized for: Check the pressure drop across the expansion valve and replace it with a larger valve if necessary. * The expansi...
