Lennox XC25 – DC Inverter Control Operation, Checkout, Status / Error Codes

OPERATION OF COMPONENTS:
Electromagnetic compatibility circuit (EMC): EMC ensures the correct operation of different equipment items which use or respond to electromagnetic phenomena. It also helps to negate the effects of interference. NOTE – The 2- and 3-ton inverter has an EMC builtĀ­in. The 4- and 5-ton units have an external inverter.

CONVERTER:
Converts AC (alternating current) to DC (direct current).

POWER FACTOR CORRECTION (PFC) CIRCUIT:
The PFC module is an integrated part of the outdoor inverter that monitors the DC bus for high, low and abnormal voltage conditions. If any of these conditions are detected, the PFC function and compressor will stop.

INTELLIGENT (INVERTER) POWER MODULE (IPM):
The IPM converts DC power into AC power. The control method is known as pulse width modulation (PWM). This means the DC is switched on and off very quickly (chopped) by the transistor switches to make simulated AC at required frequency and voltage.

COMMUNICATION CONTROL CIRCUIT:
Receives and sends message between the inverter and the outdoor control.
