Troubleshooting
Certain circuits in the smart cooling product have lethal voltages. Only professional technicians are allowed to perform maintenance.
- Exercise caution during live-line troubleshooting.
- If jumpers are used for troubleshooting, remove them after troubleshooting. Connected jumpers may affect control functions and damage equipment.
Table 10-1 describes how to troubleshoot the NetCol5000-A.
Symptom |
Possible Cause |
Solution |
---|---|---|
The unit generates abnormal voice. |
The compressor, fan, or pipes are loose. |
Check the fixing structure and ensure that all components are securely installed. |
The compressor does not work. |
The high-pressure switch reacts. |
Check the high-pressure switch status. |
Circuit breakers, fuses, or cables are disconnected. |
Check the main circuit breaker, compressor circuit breakers, fuses, and cables. |
|
A compressor motor is damaged. |
Replace the motor. |
|
A compressor does not need to start. |
Check the requirement status on the display module. |
|
The compressor does not work. |
Check whether the drive is faulty. Replace it if it is faulty. |
|
The compressor discharge temperature is too high. |
The refrigerant loop or a component is blocked. |
Clean the blockage in the refrigerant loop. |
The outdoor unit is installed in an inappropriate position. (The outdoor unit should not be exposed to direct sunlight and must be installed at a specified spacing according to the installation guide.) |
Install the outdoor unit in a correct position, without exposure to direct sunlight and with an appropriate spacing. |
|
Air exists in the cooling system. |
Exhaust air, and examine and repair the pipeline. |
|
Heat dissipation is poor because of blockages in the condenser. |
Clean the condenser fins. |
|
An outdoor fan fails. |
Check whether the outdoor fan works. |
|
Refrigerant is insufficient. |
Increase the amount of refrigerant filled. |
|
The compressor exhaust pressure is too low. |
The outdoor fan speed controller fails. |
Replace the speed controller. |
Refrigerant is insufficient. |
Increase the amount of refrigerant filled. |
|
Refrigerant is leaking. |
Check the pipeline for any leakage. |
|
The exhaust pressure of the compressor is too high. |
The refrigerant is overfilled. |
Fill refrigerant according to the refrigerant filling requirements. |
The outdoor fan is faulty. |
Check that the outdoor fan is running properly. |
|
The compressor suction pressure is too low or liquid returns. |
The refrigerant filled is insufficient. |
Add the refrigerant. |
The indoor temperature is too low. |
Change the temperature setting. |
|
Filters are clogged with dirt. |
Replace the filters. |
|
The external excess pressure is too high, and air decreases. |
Check whether the air duct is blocked. |
|
The condensing pressure is too low. |
Check the condenser. |
|
The compressor generates excessive noises. |
Liquid returns in a compressor. |
Check whether the oil temperature and discharge temperature are within the normal range. |
Refrigerant oil is insufficient. |
Add refrigerant oil. |
|
The transport sheet metal is not removed from a compressor. |
Remove the sheet metal. |
|
An indoor fan fails to start. |
The switch of the indoor fan is not turned on. |
Check the switch of the indoor fan. |
An indoor fan is damaged. |
Replace the indoor fan. |
|
The interconnection terminals for the indoor fan are not securely connected. |
Secure the interconnection terminals again. |
|
The heating function is unavailable. |
The electric heater temperature switch is being protected. |
Check the temperature switch and replace it if it is faulty. |
The electric heater is not switched on. |
Check the electric heater switch. |
|
An electric heater is burnt out. |
Disconnect the power supply and check whether the electric heater is damaged by checking the electric heater resistance properties with an ohmmeter. |
|
No water is supplied to the water inlet solenoid valve of the humidifier. |
The upstream water supply is faulty or the water pressure is below the lower threshold. |
Restore the water supply. |
The water inlet solenoid valve is blocked or faulty. |
Replace the water inlet solenoid valve. |
|
The cable to the water inlet solenoid valve is incorrectly connected. |
Reconnect the cable. |
|
Water in the smart cooling product overflows. |
The drainpipe does not connect to the pump, or the lift between the drainpipe and the water chiller is set to an appropriate value. |
Ensure that the drainpipe is properly connected to the pump and that the lift of the drainpipe is lower than 4 meters. |
The condensate pump is faulty. |
Replace the condensate pump. |
|
The liquid level detector is faulty. |
Check the alarm. Check cable connections for high and low liquid level detectors. Check whether the liquid level detectors are damaged. If necessary, replace the liquid level detectors. |
|
The inlet pipe and drainpipe leak. |
Check the inlet pipe and drainpipe and the connectors. Rectify any leakage and fasten the connectors. |
|
The automatic drainage pipe is blocked. |
Check whether the automatic drainage port is blocked and whether the automatic drainage pipe contains foreign matter or is frozen. |
|
The humidity of the computer room is high, or condensate water is generated. |
The server heat load for each smart cooling product is lower than 5 kW. |
|
Power failures occur on the active and standby routes. |
|
|
The electric heater switch trips abnormally. |
The switch is faulty. |
Replace the electric heater switch. |
The electric heater fails. |
The electric heater contactor is not closed. |
Replace the electric heater contactor. |
The compressor switch trips abnormally. |
The switch is faulty. |
Replace the compressor switch. |
The electric heating belt of the crankcase does not heat. |
|
|
The electric heating belt of the crankcase does not stop heating. |
The relay contacts of the electric heating belt of the crankcase are short-circuited. |
Replace the electric heating belt of the crankcase relay. |
If the fault persists, contact Huawei technical support.
