    What does CODE ERROR mean on my Xylem Water System?
    • A
      Audrey DeckerSep 6, 2025
      If you encounter CODE ERROR on your Xylem Water System, it indicates an invalid processor command. Ensure the installation of the cables, the screen connection, and potential equalization are correct. Also, verify that the ground is correctly installed and that the signal is strong enough; if not, install additional ferrite inductances to boost the signal.

    What to do if I get OVERCURRENT ERROR 11 on my Xylem Water System?
    • M
      Mr. Ryan Jones PhDAug 22, 2025
      The OVERCURRENT ERROR 11 in your Xylem Water System indicates that the power limit has been exceeded due to a high motor current. Check the connection terminals of the unit, the motor, and the motor cable. Also, inspect the motor windings. Ensure all connections, cables, and windings are in good condition, then reset the error by disabling the power for more than 60 seconds.

    What does FAILURE SENSOR 2, ACT. VAL. SENSOR 2 ERROR 24 mean on a Xylem Water System?
    • A
      Amy SmithSep 2, 2025
      FAILURE SENSOR 2, ACT. VAL. SENSOR 2 ERROR 24 on your Xylem Water System indicates that the sensor signal on terminals X3/4 is less than 4 mA, which an active sensor must deliver. Check if the actual value signal from the pressure transducer is faulty, the connection is faulty, or the sensor or cables are faulty. Also, verify the configuration of the sensors in P400 SUBMENU SENSOR.

    What causes MIN. THRESHOLD ERROR 22 on Xylem Water System?
    • R
      Rodney ThompsonAug 30, 2025
      MIN. THRESHOLD ERROR 22 on your Xylem Water System means that the defined value of parameter P605 MIN.THRESH. was not reached during the preselected P610 DELAY TIME. You should check the booster unit and adjust the parameter P610 DELAY TIME. You can also set the parameter P615 ERROR RESET to ON to enable five restarts in the empty system.

    What to do if my Xylem Water System shows LACK OF WATER ERROR 21?
    • M
      Mrs. Elizabeth ElliottAug 29, 2025
      LACK OF WATER ERROR 21 on your Xylem Water System indicates that the low water sensor connection at terminals X3/11-12 is open. Ensure that the incoming pressure or minimum water level values are not set too low; if they are, adjust the settings. If the error occurs for a short time, adjust parameter P610 DELAY TIME. If a sensor is not used, the terminals X3/11-12 must be bridged.

    What does PHASELOSS ERROR 16 mean on my Xylem Water System?
    • L
      Lori NorrisAug 27, 2025
      PHASELOSS ERROR 16 on your Xylem Water System indicates that one phase of the power supply is not working. Check the power supply under full load, verify for phase failure at the input, inspect the circuit breakers, and visually inspect the points at the input terminals.

    How to fix INVERT. OVERHEAT ERROR 14 on Xylem Water System?
    • J
      Joshua ThomasAug 27, 2025
      INVERT. OVERHEAT ERROR 14 on your Xylem Water System indicates that the temperature inside the unit is too high. Ensure the unit is properly cooled, the motor vents are not contaminated, and the ambient temperature is not excessively high.

    Why am I getting OVERVOLTAGE ERROR 13 on my Xylem Water System?
    • D
      Denise VasquezAug 25, 2025
      OVERVOLTAGE ERROR 13 on your Xylem Water System indicates that the voltage is too high. To resolve this, check if parameter P220 RAMP 2 is set too fast and whether the power supply voltage is too high. Also, verify if there are excessive voltage peaks. If the error is power or voltage-related, consider installing line filters, line inductors, or RC-elements.
