Common Issues & Solutions

Branch unit (RB unit) valve malfunction

Symptoms:

Inconsistent heating/cooling performance, refrigerant distribution issues, system alarms

Solution:

Check valve operation by monitoring temperature differential across ports, verify electrical connections to solenoids, test control signals from main board, replace valve assembly if stuck or leaking.

High-pressure switch triggering

Symptoms:

System shutdown, error codes, reduced cooling capacity, compressor cycling

Solution:

Check condenser coil for dirt/obstructions, verify proper fan operation, ensure adequate airflow, check for refrigerant overcharge, validate pressure switch operation, clean condenser coil as needed.

Condensate drainage problems

Symptoms:

Water leakage from indoor units, water damage, system shutdown due to float switch

Solution:

Clean drain pan and check for blockages, verify proper installation slope, ensure trap is correctly installed, test condensate pump operation, clean or replace clogged components.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key features of Fujitsu's Airstage VRF systems?

Fujitsu Airstage systems feature high-efficiency DC inverter-driven compressors, wide operation range for extreme climates (-15°C to 46°C), priority cooling/heating mode selection, up to a 200% connection ratio of indoor to outdoor capacity, and compact outdoor units that reduce installation footprint.

How does Fujitsu's heat recovery system work?

Fujitsu's heat recovery system uses a three-pipe design with branch units (RB units) that direct refrigerant based on zone demands. This allows simultaneous heating and cooling by transferring heat from zones requiring cooling to zones requiring heating, significantly improving system efficiency while providing individual zone control.

What control options are available for Fujitsu VRF systems?

Fujitsu offers multiple control options including individual controllers (wired/wireless), centralized controllers (UTY-DTGY, UTY-DCGY), BMS integration through BACnet/Modbus/LonWorks gateways, cloud-based monitoring and control via Airstage VRF Monitor, and the UTY-PEGX EcoGuide that provides detailed performance and energy usage data.

What is unique about Fujitsu's side-discharge VRF models?

Fujitsu's J-Series side-discharge VRF units feature a space-saving design ideal for projects with limited installation area. They deliver high efficiency in a compact footprint, operate with low noise levels, can be wall-mounted to further save space, and are particularly suitable for light commercial and mixed-use buildings.
