Refrigeration Cycle
REFRIGERANT FLOW
The refrigerant ¯ow is in the standard pattern. Refrigerant ¯ows through the compressor, condenser, liquid
tank, evaporator and back to the compressor.
The refrigerant evaporation through the evaporator coil is controlled by an externally equalized expansion
valve, located inside the evaporator case.
FREEZE PROTECTION
The compressor cycles on and off to maintain the evaporator temperature within a speci®ed range. When the
evaporator coil temperature falls below a speci®ed point, the thermo control ampli®er interrupts the compres-
sor operation. When the evaporator coil temperature rises above the speci®cation, the thermo control ampli-
®er allows compressor operation.
REFRIGERANT SYSTEM PROTECTION
Dual-pressure switch
The dual-pressure switch is located on the liquid tank. If the system pressure rises or falls out of specifications,
the switch opens to interrupt compressor clutch operation.
