Heat pump malfunctions: Nibe Error Codes
If you cannot find the error code explanation or need help resolving any issues, ServiceMy can help diagnose and arrange a professional heat pump service to restore your system to optimum performance.
| Error Code | Title | Explanation |
| 50 | High Pressure Alarm | Refrigerant pressure too high; often caused by poor system flow, blocked heat exchanger, or high return temperatures. |
| 51 | Low Pressure Alarm | Refrigerant pressure too low; typically due to leaks, low charge, or airflow issues. |
| 52 | High Condenser Temperature | Condenser temperature too high; may indicate poor heat transfer or flow issues. |
| 53 | Low Evaporator Temperature | Evaporator temperature too low; possible airflow restriction or refrigerant imbalance. |
| 54 | Compressor Discharge Temperature High | Compressor overheating; may indicate high load or circulation issues. |
| 55 | Evaporator Sensor Fault | Fault with evaporator temperature sensor. |
| 56 | Condenser Sensor Fault | Fault with condenser temperature sensor. |
| 57 | Suction Gas Sensor Fault | Refrigerant suction temperature sensor failure. |
| 58 | Discharge Gas Sensor Fault | Compressor discharge sensor fault. |
| 59 | Outdoor Temperature Sensor Fault | External air sensor failure; impacts weather compensation. |
| 60 | Flow Temperature Sensor Fault | Heating flow sensor fault; affects system control. |
| 61 | Return Temperature Sensor Fault | Return sensor fault; may cause incorrect modulation. |
| 62 | Hot Water Sensor Fault | Cylinder sensor failure affecting DHW production. |
| 63 | Brine In Sensor Fault (GSHP) | Ground loop inlet sensor fault (ground source systems). |
| 64 | Brine Out Sensor Fault (GSHP) | Ground loop outlet sensor fault. |
| 65 | Room Sensor Fault | Indoor room temperature sensor failure. |
| 66 | Exhaust Air Sensor Fault | Fault with exhaust air sensor (exhaust air systems). |
| 67 | Fan Fault | Fan motor not operating correctly or airflow issue. |
| 68 | Circulation Pump Fault | Pump not operating or insufficient flow. |
| 69 | Low System Pressure Alarm | Heating system pressure too low; check for leaks or filling loop. |
| 70 | High System Pressure Alarm | Heating system pressure too high; expansion vessel or filling issue. |
| 71 | Flow Switch Alarm | No water movement detected; indicates circulation issue. |
| 72 | Defrost Fault | Defrost cycle not operating correctly. |
| 73 | Anti-Freeze Alarm | System protecting against freezing conditions. |
| 74 | Communication Fault | Communication error between system components. |
| 75 | Inverter Fault | Compressor inverter malfunction. |
| 76 | Electrical Overcurrent Alarm | Excess current detected; possible compressor or wiring issue. |
| 77 | Voltage Fault | Power supply outside acceptable limits. |
| 78 | Compressor Fault | General compressor fault or failure to operate. |
| 79 | EEPROM / Control Board Fault | Internal memory or PCB issue. |
| 80 | Configuration Fault | Incorrect system configuration or parameter setup. |
| 150 | Low Flow Alarm | Insufficient water circulation; commonly airlocks, pump failure, or blockage. |
| 151 | High Flow Temperature Alarm | Flow temperature exceeded safe limits. |
| 152 | Return Temperature Too High | Return temperature too high; may indicate poor heat extraction. |
| 153 | Temperature Difference Alarm | Abnormal delta between flow and return; indicates circulation issues. |
| 154 | Hot Water Temperature Too High | DHW temperature exceeded safe limits. |
| 155 | Heat Pump Blocked | System locked out due to repeated faults. |
| 156 | External Alarm Active | External control or safety device triggered shutdown. |
