    • Ensure correct pinout for pressuriser and controller
  • Ensure correct voltage (12V or 24V) to the pressuriser motor pin A (red wire)
  • Ensure continuity to earth from motor pin B (black wire)
  • Ensure signal voltage (1.6V – 10V) to pressuriser motor pin C (yellow wire)
  • Test motor by powering Pin A & C simultaneously

1.2 Pressuriser noisy / running at full speed

  • Check filter condition
  • Check filter securely fitted
  • Check doors and windows are closing properly
  • Check cabin sealing (250+ Pa requirement for system max speed test)
  • Check pressure sense tube is connected, clear of blockages with no kinks

1.3 Filter blocking quickly

    • CO2: Settings -> CO2 Setting -> Disable CO2 Sensor
    • Temperature: Settings -> Next -> Temp. Setting -> Disable Temp Sensor

Yes:

  • CO2: Unplug RJ45 cable from rear of controller and from CO2 sensor. Inspect condition of cable to ensure undamaged. Wait 1 minute, reconnect.
  • Temperature: Unplug 2-pin Deutsch plug from master loom connected to controller. Inspect condition of cable / plug to ensure undamaged. Wait 1 minute, reconnect.
  • Power cycle unit
