How do you get in touch with DTC? I have bmc fault on 2 compressors 1 and 2 on one chiller i dealing with?
Dont send logs to them, get them to dial in via team viewer and help you through your laptop. you will get better results. if you can, setup in advance. They can use access codes that you cannot and see more and do more remotely.
Nope it is now a very expensive center piece for your living room! Have you spoke with DTC tech support. You can send your fault logs to them and they will look over them
This one is a TT300. And yes the refrigerant flow has been checked, solenoids are working. Earlier it did have a couple of single phase over current faults due to flooding of the evaporator. The level sensor failed causing the flood. This was rectified and the compressor ran for only a couple of days before the low back EMF fault started to occur. If the rotor magnetic field has been weakened, can this be repaired or will I need to replace it? Is it possible to align the shaft in a static magnetic field while in statue for example?
So if you are dealing with a partial demag of the shaft, To my knowledge the only we to have this happen is improper refrigerant cooling, You may want to check that out. What model of compressor?
The data below is typical from the fault log. The RPM is over 30000 and the back EMF is below 0.07. It certainly seems like deterioration of the magnetic strength.

You need to look at your fault logs... If your Back EMF is below .09 when the compressor is above 20,000 RPM then you may be dealing with a partial demag of the shaft, Are you getting any other faults?
if you clear it, does it come right back? or is this a one time fault. do you have monitoring software? do you have an air card? if you do, it might be best to contact DTC and have them dial in through your disputer with team viewer to help you.
Danfos Turbocor Does anyone know how to remedy the “Motor back EMF is low” fault on a Turbocor compressor? I understand that this fault may be because by reduced strength of the magnetic field in the rotor. Can the magnetic field strength be restored and if so how.
