Troubleshooting with gauge pressure
Troubleshooting with gauge pressure
Perform troubleshooting according to the high and
low gauge pressures of the cooling cycle. For de-
tails, see "Connection of service tool".
a The gauge pressure varies largely with the
weather condition and operating condition of the
machine. Check the gauge pressure under the
pressure measurement conditions.
q
High-pressure line pressure is too high: Above
approx. 2.5 MPa {25 kg/cm
High-pressure line pressure is too low: Below
q
approx. 1 MPa {10 kg/cm
q
Low-pressure line pressure is too high: Above
approx. 0.3 MPa {3 kg/cm
q
Low-pressure line pressure is too low: Below ap-
prox. 0.05 MPa {0.5 kg/cm
a Dual pressure switch turns "OFF" to protect the
air conditioner circuit if the pressure of the
high-pressure or low-pressure line is abnormal.
