OEM tracedController sensor fault family

HIGH VOLT SENSOR / LOW VOLT SENSOR

The controller reports an abnormal internal voltage-sensing condition.

What it means

The controller reports an abnormal internal voltage-sensing condition.

This entry is tied to the exact STS message family documented by Sullair. The same words can mean something different on another controller generation, so confirm the displayed message and machine documentation before acting.

Likely causes

  • Controller fault

Operator-safe first checks

  • Record the exact high/low sensor message and related events.
  • Do not treat this as proof of facility line voltage without proper measurement.

Trained maintenance / service checks

  • The OEM troubleshooting guide directs these messages to Sullair Factory Service.
  • Diagnose controller hardware before replacing unrelated power components.

Reset or keep running?

Do not use repeated resets as a substitute for diagnosis. If the condition involves electrical power, a motor overload, high pressure, loss of cooling, abnormal temperature, or a safety circuit, correct the underlying problem before returning the compressor to service.
