d. Condenser pressure too high (high pressure safety switch tripped). Check condenser for obstructions.

e. Minimum off time has not expired. Wait for time to expire.

Symptom: System short of capacity.

Probable Causes/Recommendations:

b. Discharge air short cycling back to return. Check air barrier between hot/cold aisles.

c. Low airflow.

1. Check filters. Replace as needed.

2. Check for and clear any obstructions across or in the (supply) discharge air stream. Clear coil fins of debris.
