A problem with evap water flow would give a low suction pressure.
Correct.
however, reduced water flow also reduces the amount of heat which can be extracted from the water and in turn results in not all of the liquid being evaporated, so it returns to the crankcase. this also gives a wide TD across the evap and a very low outlet temp. the "york sh1te" board only has an outlet temp. sensor and will shut the plant down if it drops above a certain rate (whatever is programmed e.g. 2 deg per minute).

Perhaps you woul dget liquid slugging, but the tx should be almost pumping system down.
I think this is not the case, the txv will have a range of operation based on design conditions and if you introduce low flow or blocked strainers then it is outside these conditions and unable to operate correctly whereby you will get liquid return to the comp.

I cannot see it as being a control board trouble
Given that it is now apparent that 1 circuit runs for an hour before tripping i am inclined to agree, but these piles of sh1te have cuased me lots of vexations in the past and i rate them the same as daikin a/c units, poor.

when it ran for an hour the water temp came down to 6 oc
That sounds a little low to me, what % glycol mix is the water?

Why didn't you try some of the points given here?
There is flood back in that system. Check it first
