Fault codes covered
82-13, 82-53
Code 82-53 VFD Lockout – Reset with Power Drop
This code indicates the VFD has reset itself due to a line voltage loss. When this code is set the PCM will complete a shutdown, reset the VFD, and restart if demand is still present. The system should resume operation after the 5 minute compressor protection time delay expires. 3 occurrences of code 82-13 within a 1 hour period will result in a code 82-53 and 2 hour lockout. Occasional occurrences of this code may happen due to momentary power loss or electrical noise from utility. Check tightness of all line voltage connections. Loose connections can cause momentary voltage drop due to vibration and trigger this fault. If all connections are tight, additional steps involving the local power utility or addition of external power conditioner may be required.
