14 Evaporator Fan Low Speed Current Too High MP4000

Description

Evaporator Fan Low Speed Current Too High 

  • Occurs during pretrip (PTI) or function test only. 
  • Fan power consumption is 33% above expected current draw or phase current level differs 33% or more. 
  • If both alarm #14 and #15 is active this indicates too high phase difference. 
  • Expected fan current is a function of the power line frequency and the supply voltage. 
  • With 20’ setting above approximately 
    • - 1,0Amp@400VAC/50Hz 
    • - 1,2Amp@460VAC/60Hz 
  • With 40’ setting above approximately 
    • - 1,0Amp@400VAC/50Hz 
    • - 1,2Amp@460VAC/60Hz 
  • Indicates: 
  • Defective or stuck evaporator fan motor. 
  • Incorrect motor or motor connections. 
  • Defective volt or amp meter on power module. 

Corrective Action 

  • Open evaporator door and make sure all fans rotate freely. 
  • Enter Manual Function Test and start evaporator fans on Low speed. Make sure all fans start on low speed. Check fan motor volts and amps. 
  • With 20’ setting expect 
    • - 0,8Amp@400VAC/50Hz 0,9Amp@460VAC/60Hz 
  • With 40’ setting expect 
    • - 0,8Amp@400VAC/50Hz - 0,9Amp@460VAC/60Hz
