12.9Outdoor Air Temperature Control

The compressor operating frequency is regulated in accordance to the outdoor air temperature as shown in the diagram below.

This control will begin 1 minute after the compressor starts.

Compressor frequency will adjust based on outdoor air temperature.

100.4°F or 77°F (For S18/22NK)

Free

98.6°F or 71.6°F (For S18/22NK)

Limited Frequency

Outdoor air temperature

12.10 Cooling Overload Control

Pipe temperature limitation / restriction.

o Detects the outdoor pipe temperature and carry out restriction / limitation below (Limit the compressor operation frequency)

o The compressor stops if outdoor pipe temperature exceeds 141.8°F (for S9NK and S12NK), 145.4°F (for S18NK and S22NK).

o If the compressor stops 4 times in 20 minutes, Timer LED blinks (“F95” indicated: Outdoor high pressure rise protection)

12.11 Freeze Prevention Control

When indoor heat exchanger temperature is lower than 32°F continuously for 6 minutes, compressor will stops operation.

Compressor will resume its operation 3 minutes after the indoor heat exchanger is higher than 55.4°F.

At the same time, indoor fan speed will be higher than during its normal operation.

If the indoor heat exchanger temperature is higher than 55.4°F for 5 minutes, the fan speed will return to its normal operation.

12.12 Freeze Prevention Control 2

Control start conditions

o During Cooling operation and soft dry operation

ƒDuring thermo OFF condition, indoor intake temperature is less than 50°F or

ƒCompressor stops for freeze prevention control

oEither one of the conditions above occurs 5 times in 60 minutes.

Control contents

oOperation stops

oTimer LED blinks and “H99” indicated

12.13 Dew Prevention Control

To prevent dew formation at indoor unit discharge area.

This control will be activated if:

o Cooling mode or Quiet mode is activated.

o Remote control setting temperature is less than 77°F. o Fan Speed is at CLo or QLo.

o Room temperature is constant (±33.8°F) for 30 minutes. o Compressor is continuously running.

Fan speed will be adjusted accordingly in this control.

o Fan speed will be increased slowly if the unit is in quiet mode but no change in normal cooling mode.
