Notes (1) When the discharge pipe temperature is in the range of 100-110ºC (105-115ºC), the speed is reduced by 4 rps.
(2)
When the discharge pipe temperature is raised and continues operation for 20 seconds without changing, then the speed is reduced again by 4 rps.
(3) If the discharge pipe temperature is in the range of 90-100ºC (95-105ºC) even when the compressor command speed is maintained for 1(3) min-
utes when the temperature is in the range of 90-100ºC (95-105ºC), the speed is raised by 1 rps and kept at that speed for 1(3) minutes. This
process is repeated until the command speed is reached.
(4) Lower limit speed
2) If the temperature of 110ºC (115ºC) is detected by the sensor on the discharge pipe, then the compressor will stop imme-
diately.
When the discharge pipe temperature drops and the time delay of 3 minutes is over, the unit starts again within 1 hour
but there is no start at the third time.
