1. The compressor stops and same error
appears again.
Check if IPM has failed.
2. Inverter output voltage is stable (1). • Check insulation and coil resistors.
If both are normal, restart the unit. If
the same error occurs again, replace
the compressor.
• ,QVXODWLRQUHVLVWRU0ȍPHD-
sured.
• Coil resistors for 208-230V and 460V
Heat Pump and Heat Recovery Units.
