Honeywell WT6500 owner manual System Faults, Non Grid-Tie SmartBox Fault Specifications

31 Operation

System Faults

The SMARTBOX™ Controller constantly monitors the status of the turbine. Any time the turbine senses a fault, the dynamic brake will stop the turbine and the SMARTBOX™ Controller will stop producing energy from the turbine. “TURBINE FAULT” will be displayed on the LCD screen along with the fault detected. The user must clear any faults in order to restart the turbine.

If a fault occurs, follow these steps to clear it:

1.View the faults listed and correct the fault.

2.Press ENTER on the front panel. If the fault is fixed the controller will go to stop state. If the system finds any other faults, the next fault will be displayed.

3.When all faults are clear, go to start/stop turbine in the menu and restart the turbine.
