Alarms fall into three distinct categories: Faults, Problems, and Warnings as detailed in the following
section.
Fault Alarms
The following table identifies each fault alarm, its display, gives the condition that causes the alarm to
occur, and states the action taken because of the alarm. All fault alarms require a manual reset and trigger
the remote alarm signal.
Table 20, Fault Alarm Description

NOTES:
1.
Surge Temperature is defined as the suction temperature minus the leaving chilled water temperature.
2.
Delta-P switch used only on chillers manufactured in Europe.
3.
Starter alarm faults will be sent from the starter and will also appear here. They are discussed elsewhere in this manual.
