1 LEV
Note 1 :
• Symptoms of incorrect connection to BC controller LEV board
Improper installation is the same for 1 and 2, so it is omitted here.
Note 2: Method of checking LEV’s fully-open and fully-closed status
1 Check LEV’s full opening (pulse), using the LED monitor display (outdoor controller board SW1).
Fully opened: 2000 pulsed
Fully closed: 60 pulses (LEV 1 may be greater than 60 during full-heating operation.)
2 With LEV fully open, check for pressure difference by measuring the temperature of the piping on both sides.
3 With LEV fully closed, check for refrigerant noise.
Note 3 :Use the following table to determine opening due to LEV differential pressure control and superheat
control.
