1. Power Circuit
● This circuit full-wave rectifies 220-240V AC applied between terminals L and N, and boosts it to a required
voltage with the active module, to create a DC voltage.
The voltage becomes 260-360V when the compressor is operated
(1) Active module
The active filter, consisting of a reactor and
switching element, eliminates higher
harmonic components contained in the
current generated when the compressor is
operated, and improves the power-factor.
(2) Diode stacks
These rectify the 220-240V AC from
terminals L and N to a DC power supply.
< Reference >
● In case of malfunction or defective connection:
Immediately after the compressor starts, it may stop
due to “abnormally low speed” active error, etc.
The compressor may continue to operate normally,
but the power-factor will decrease, the operation
current will increase, and the overcurrent breaker
of the household power board will probably activate.
● In case of active module faulty or defective
connection:
Although the compressor continues to operate
normally, the power-factor will decrease, the
operation current will increase, and the overcurrent
breaker of the household power board will probably
activate.
< Reference >
● If diode stack 1 is faulty, the compressor may stop
due to “lp”, “anbormally low speed”, etc. immediately
after it starts, or it may not operate at all because
no DC voltage is generated between the positive e
and negative d terminals.
If diode stack 1 is faulty, be aware that the 25A
fuse might also have blown.
● If diode stack 2 is faulty, DC voltage may not be
generated and the compressor may not operate at
all. Also, be aware that the 5A fuse might have
blown.
