What it means
On the Alféa Excellia / Excellia Duo (R410A split, 11-16, pre-A.I.)
The manual says: Pressure sensor error.
Likely causes:
- Refrigerant circuit protection (pressure/temperature out of range).
On the Alféa Hybrid Duo (heat pump + integrated fuel-oil boiler)
The manual says: Faulty evaporator temperature sensor.
Likely causes:
- Temperature sensor short-circuit, open circuit, unplugged or faulty.
Is it safe?
On the Alféa Excellia / Excellia Duo (R410A split, 11-16, pre-A.I.)
| Does the heat pump stop? | Yes |
|---|---|
| Severity | Fault — clears by itself when the condition goes |
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump stops until the fault clears or is reset.
On the Alféa Hybrid Duo (heat pump + integrated fuel-oil boiler)
| Does the heat pump stop? | Partly |
|---|---|
| Severity | Fault — clears by itself when the condition goes |
| Engineer needed? | Yes |
The heat pump keeps running with some functions stopped.
What you can check
On the Alféa Excellia / Excellia Duo (R410A split, 11-16, pre-A.I.)
- Check the outdoor unit is not blocked by leaves, debris or snow.
- Note the error number/LED pattern shown and give it to your installer.
On the Alféa Hybrid Duo (heat pump + integrated fuel-oil boiler)
- Note the error number/LED pattern shown and give it to your installer.
What the engineer will check
On the Alféa Excellia / Excellia Duo (R410A split, 11-16, pre-A.I.)
- Check refrigerant charge and leaks, expansion valve, pressure sensor/switch and airflow.
- Check water flow through the plate heat exchanger.
Who to ask for: refrigeration (F-gas).
Certification: F-gas certification for refrigerant work.
On the Alféa Hybrid Duo (heat pump + integrated fuel-oil boiler)
- Check sensor wiring and connector.
- Measure sensor resistance; replace if faulty.
Who to ask for: heat pump / electrical.
