OPERATION
General Knowledge Sequence Of Refrigeration
A good understanding of the basic operation of the refrigeration system is essential for the service technician. Without this understanding, accurate troubleshooting of refrigeration system problems will be more difficult and time consuming, if not (in some cases) entirely impossible. The refrigeration system uses four basic principles (laws) in its operation they are as follows:

1. “Heat always flows from a warmer body to a cooler body.”

2. “Heat must be added to or removed from a substance before a change in state can occur”

3. “Flow is always from a higher pressure area to a lower pressure area.”

4. “The temperature at which a liquid or gas changes state is dependent upon the pressure.”

The refrigeration cycle begins at the compressor. Starting the compressor creates a low pressure in the suction line which draws refrigerant gas (vapor) into the compressor. The compressor then “compresses” this refrigerant vapor, raising its pressure and its (heat intensity) temperature.

The refrigerant leaves the compressor through the discharge Line as a hot High pressure gas (vapor). The refrigerant enters the condenser coil where it gives up some of its heat. The condenser fan moving air across the coil’s finned surface facilitates the transfer of heat from the refrigerant to the relatively cooler outdoor air. When a sufficient quantity of heat has been removed from the refrigerant gas (vapor), the refrigerant will “condense” (i.e. change to a liquid). Once the refrigerant has been condensed (changed) to a liquid it is cooled even further by the air that continues to flow across the condenser coil.

The design determines at exactly what point (in the condenser) the change of state (i.e. gas to a liquid) takes place. In all cases, however, the refrigerant must be totally condensed (changed) to a Liquid before leaving the condenser coil.

The refrigerant leaves the condenser Coil through the liquid line as a warm high pressure liquid. It next will pass through the refrigerant drier (if equipped). It is the function of the drier to trap any moisture present in the system, contaminants, and large particulate matter.

The liquid refrigerant next enters the metering device. The metering device is a capillary tube. The purpose of the metering device is to “meter” (i.e. control or measure) the quantity of refrigerant entering the evaporator coil. In the case of the capillary tube this is accomplished (by design) through size (and length) of device, and the pressure difference present across the device.

Since the evaporator coil is under a lower pressure (due to the suction created by the compressor) than the liquid line, the liquid refrigerant leaves the metering device entering the evaporator coil. As it enters the evaporator coil, the larger area and lower pressure allows the refrigerant to expand and lower its temperature (heat intensity). This expansion is often referred to as “boiling” or atomizing. Since the unit’s blower is moving indoor air across the finned surface of the evaporator coil, the expanding refrigerant absorbs some of that heat. This results in a lowering of the indoor air temperature, or cooling.

The expansion and absorbing of heat cause the liquid refrigerant to evaporate (i.e. change to a gas). Once the refrigerant has been evaporated (changed to a gas), it is heated even further by the air that continues to flow across the evaporator coil.

The particular system design determines at exactly what point (in the evaporator) the change of state (i.e. liquid to a gas) takes place. In all cases, however, the refrigerant must be totally evaporated (changed) to a gas before leaving the evaporator coil.

The low pressure (suction) created by the compressor causes the refrigerant to leave the evaporator through the suction line as a cool low pressure

vapor. The refrigerant then returns to the compressor, where the cycle is

repeated.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Undercharged Refrigerant Systems

WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK Unplug and/or disconnect all electrical power to the unit before performing inspections, maintenances or service.
Failure to do so could result in electric shock, serious injury or death.

NOTE: Ensure fan is on high speed during testing. An undercharged system will result in poor performance (low pressures, etc.) in both the heating and cooling cycle.
Whenever you service a unit with an undercharge of refrigerant, always suspect a leak. The leak must be repaired before charging the unit.
To check for an undercharged system, turn the unit on, allow the compressor to run long enough to establish working pressures in the system (15 to 20 minutes).

WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed, and proper protective clothing must be worn when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could result in serious injury or death.

During the cooling cycle you can listen carefully at the exit of the metering device into the evaporator; an intermittent hissing and gurgling sound indicates a low refrigerant charge. Intermittent frosting and thawing of the evaporator is another indication of a low charge, however, frosting and thawing can also be caused by insufficient air over the evaporator. Checks for an undercharged system can be made at the compressor. If the compressor seems quieter than normal, it is an indication of a low refrigerant charge. If the compressor reads low amperage and has a high discharge line temperature at the compressor, it is an indication of low system refrigerant.

A check of the amperage drawn by the compressor motor should show a lower reading. (Check the Unit Specification.) After the unit has run 10 to 15 minutes, check the gauge pressures. Gauges connected to system with an undercharge will have low head pressures and substantially low suction pressures.

Figure 607 (Undercharged System) 30

TROUBLESHOOTING
Overcharged Refrigerant Systems

WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK Unplug and/or disconnect all electrical power to the unit before performing inspections, maintenances or service.
Failure to do so could result in electric shock, serious injury or death.

NOTE: Ensure fan is on high speed during testing. Compressor amps will be near normal or higher. Noncondensables can also cause these symptoms. To confirm, remove some of the charge, if conditions improve, system may be overcharged. If conditions don’t improve, Noncondensables are indicated.
NOTE:Factory sealed units will not be overcharged
Whenever an overcharged system is indicated, always make sure that the problem is not caused by air flow problems. Improper air flow over the evaporator coil may indicate some of the same symptoms as an over charged system.

WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed, and proper protective clothing must be worn when working with refrigerants.

An overcharge can cause the compressor to fail, since it would be “slugged” with liquid refrigerant. The charge for any system is critical. When the compressor is noisy, suspect an overcharge, when you are sure that the air quantity over the evaporator coil is correct. Icing of the evaporator will not be encountered because the refrigerant will boil later if at all. Gauges connected to system will usually have higher head pressure (depending upon amount of over charge). Suction pressure should be slightly higher.

Failure to follow these procedures could result in serious injury or death.

Figure 608 (Overcharged System) 31

TROUBLESHOOTING
Restricted Refrigerant System
NOTE: Ensure fan is on high speed during testing. Troubleshooting a restricted refrigerant system can be difficult. The following procedures are the more common problems and solutions to these problems. There are two types of refrigerant restrictions: Partial restrictions and complete restrictions. A partial restriction allows some of the refrigerant to circulate through the system. With a complete restriction there is no circulation of refrigerant in the system. Restricted refrigerant systems display the same symptoms as a “low-charge condition.” A quick check for either condition begins at the evaporator. With a partial restriction, there may be gurgling sounds at the metering device entrance to the evaporator. The evaporator in a partial restriction could be partially frosted or have an ice ball close to the entrance of the metering device. Frost may continue on the suction line back to the compressor. Often a partial restriction of any type can be found by feel, as there is a temperature difference from one side of the restriction to the other. There will usually be a difference felt at the capillary tube. This does not indicate a restricted condition. With a complete restriction, there will be no sound at the metering device entrance. An amperage check of the compressor with a partial restriction may show normal current when compared to the unit specification. With a complete restriction the current drawn may be considerably less than normal, as the compressor is running in a deep vacuum (no load.) Much of the area of the condenser will be relatively cool since most or all of the liquid refrigerant will be stored there. Make all checks possible before tapping into the system and installing gauges. When the unit is shut off, or the compressor disengages, the gauges may equalize very slowly. The following conditions are based primarily on a system in the cooling mode.

Check Capillary Tube

COMPONENT TESTING

WARNING
BURN HAZARD Proper safety procedures must be followed, and proper protective clothing must be worn when working with a torch.
Failure to follow these procedures could result in moderate or serious injury.

WARNING
CUT/SEVER HAZARD Be careful with the sharp edges and corners. Wear protective clothing and gloves, etc.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury.

Test the Capillary Tube and Check Valve Assy 1. Check the capillary tube temperature by hand where the refrigerant enters the capillary tube. A partial restriction of the capillary tube will be indicated by frost or freezing in that area. 2. If the capillary tube is fully restricted, then pressure will increase and pressure switch will open if installed. If no pressure switch is installed, the unit will shut down due to the compressor overload opening. High discharge temperature will be present at the compressor.

WARNING
BURN HAZARD Proper safety procedures must be followed, and proper protective clothing must be worn when working with a torch.
Failure to follow these procedures could result in moderate or serious injury.

Single Phase Running and L.R.A. Test NOTE: The L.R.A. can be found on the rating plate. Select the proper amperage scale and clamp the meter probe around the wire to the “C” terminal of the compressor. Turn on the unit and read the running amperage on the meter. If the compressor does not start, the reading will indicate the locked rotor amperage (L.R.A.).
Overloads The compressor is equipped with either an external or internal overload which senses both motor amperage and winding temperature. High motor temperature or amperage heats the overload causing it to open, breaking the common circuit within the compressor. Heat generated within the compressor shell, usually due to recycling of the motor, is slow to dissipate. It may take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours for the overload to reset.
Checking the Overloads
CAUTION: Before attempting to check overloads, ensure that compressor is cool to touch.
External Overloads With power off, remove the leads from compressor terminals. If the compressor is hot, allow the overload to cool before starting check. Using an ohmmeter, test continuity across the terminals of the external overload. If you do not have continuity; this indicates that the overload is open and must be replaced.
Internal Overloads Some model compressors are equipped with an internal overload. The overload is embedded in the motor windings to sense the winding temperature and/or current draw. The overload is connected in series with the common motor terminal. Should the internal temperature and/or current draw become excessive, the contacts in the overload will open, turning off the compressor. The overload will automatically reset, but may require several hours before the heat is dissipated.
Checking the Internal Overload 1. With no power to unit, remove the leads from the compressor terminals. 2. Using an ohmmeter, test continuity between terminals C-S and C-R. If no continuity, and the compressor is not hot to the touch, the compressor overload is open, and the compressor should be replaced.

Compressor Checks

COMPONENT TESTING

WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD Turn off electric power before service or installation. Extreme care must be used, if it becomes necessary to work on equipment with power applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.

WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE HAZARD Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed, and proper protective clothing must be worn when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could result in serious injury or death.

Single Phase Resistance Test Remove the leads from the compressor terminals and set the ohmmeter on the lowest scale (R x 1). Touch the leads of the ohmmeter from terminals common to start (“C” to “S”). Next, touch the leads of the ohmmeter from terminals common to run (“C” to “R”). Add values “C” to “S” and “C” to “R” together and check resistance from start to run terminals (“S” to “R”). Resistance “S” to “R” should equal the total of “C” to “S” and “C” to “R.” In a single phase PSC compressor motor, the highest value will be from the start to the run connections (“S” to “R”). The next highest resistance is from the start to the common connections (“S” to “C”). The lowest resistance is from the run to common. (“C” to “R”) Before replacing a compressor, check to be sure it is defective.

GROUND TEST Use an ohmmeter set on its highest scale. Touch one lead to the compressor body (clean point of contact as a good connection is a must) and the other probe in turn to each compressor terminal. If a reading is obtained the compressor is grounded and must be replaced. Check the complete electrical system to the compressor and compressor internal electrical system, check to be certain that compressor is not out on internal overload. Complete evaluation of the system must be made whenever you suspect the compressor is defective. If the compressor has been operating for sometime, a careful examination must be made to determine why the compressor failed.
Many compressor failures are caused by the following conditions: 1. Improper air flow over the evaporator. 2. Overcharged refrigerant system causing liquid to be returned to the compressor. 3. Restricted refrigerant system. 4. Lack of lubrication. 5. Liquid refrigerant returning to compressor causing oil to be washed out of bearings. 6. Non-condensables such as air and moisture in the system. Moisture is extremely destructive to a refrigerant system. 7. Capacitor.

WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD Turn off electric power before service or installation. Extreme care must be used, if it becomes necessary to work on equipment with power applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or death.
Many motor capacitors are internally fused. Shorting the terminals will blow the fuse, ruining the capacitor. A 20,000 ohm 2 watt resistor can be used to discharge capacitors safely. Remove wires from capacitor and place resistor across terminals. When checking a dual capacitor with a capacitor analyzer or ohmmeter, both sides must be tested.
Dual Rated Run Capacitor Hook-up

Figure 703 Dual Capacitor Check The meter will show whether the capacitor is “open” or “shorted.” It will tell whether the capacitor is within its micro farads rating and it will show whether the capacitor is operating at the proper power-factor percentage.
1. Set the settings on multi meter to microfarads (uF). 2. Connect the black to common terminal on the capacitor. 3. Connect the red probe to the herm connection (to check compressor circuit) or fan connection (to check fan circuit) of the capacitor. Read the value and compare to the rating on the capacitor. 4. If reading deviates from rating by more than 6% replace the capacitor.

Heating Element

WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD Turn off electric power before service or installation. All electrical connections and wiring MUST be
the National Electrical Code and all local codes which have jurisdiction. Failure to do so can result in personal injury or death.

Heating Element Example

All electric heat models are equipped with a heating element . The models are equipped with either a 1.32 Kw or a 3.5 Kw element. The heating element contains a fuse link. The fuse link is in series with the power supply and will open and interrupt the power when the temperature reaches 185°F or a short circuit occurs in the heating element. Once the fuse link separates, a new heater element must be installed. NOTE: Always replace the heating element with the exact replacement.

TESTING THE HEATING ELEMENT Testing of the elements can be made with an ohmmeter across the terminals after the connecting wires have been removed. A cold resistance reading of approximately 11.5 +-10% ohms for the 1.32 KW heater should be registered. A cold resistance reading of approximately 30.4 +-10% ohms for the 3.5 KW heater should be registered.

A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that the work is carried out. The ventilation should safely disperse any released refrigerant away from the work area or external to building envelope.
During Repairs To Sealed Components: All power must be removed from the equipment being worked on prior to any removal of sealed covers, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have an electrical supply to equipment during servicing, then a constant leak detector shall be located at the most critical point to warn of a potentially hazardous situation.
Checks And Repairs To Electrical Devices: · Repair and maintenance to electrical components shall include initial safety checks and component inspection procedures. If a fault exists that could
compromise safety, then no electrical supply shall be connected to the circuit until it is satisfactorily dealt with. If the fault cannot be corrected remove power supply to unit. DO NOT OPERATE. · Initial safety checks shall include:
·That capacitors are discharged: this shall be done in a safe manner to avoid possibility of sparking; ·That no live electrical components and wiring are exposed while charging, recovering or purging the system; ·Verify unit is properly grounded. · Particular attention shall be paid to the following to ensure that by working on electrical components, the casing is not altered in such a way that the level of protection is affected. This shall include damage to cables, excessive number of connections, terminals not made to original specification, damage to seals, incorrect fitting of glands, etc. · Ensure that the apparatus is mounted securely. · Ensure that seals or sealing materials have not degraded to the point that they no longer serve the purpose of preventing the ingress of flammable atmospheres. Replacement parts shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications. · The following is a list of important considerations when working with R-32 equipment: · R-32 pressure is similar to R-410A and approximately 60% higher than R-22 pressure. · R-32 cylinders must not be allowed to exceed 125°F, they may leak or rupture. · R-32 must never be pressurized with a mixture of compressed air, it may become MORE flammable. · Servicing equipment and components must be specifically designed for use with R-32 and dedicated to prevent contamination. · Manifold sets must be equipped with gauges capable of reading 750 psig (high side) and 200 psig (low side), with a 500-psig low-side retard. · Gauge hoses must have a minimum 750-psig service pressure rating. · Recovery cylinders must have a minimum service pressure rating of 400 psig, (DOT 4BA400 and DOT BW400 approved cylinders). · POE (Polyol-Ester) lubricants must be used with R-32 equipment. · To prevent moisture absorption and lubricant contamination, do not leave the refrigeration system open to the atmosphere for extended periods of time. · If unit refrigerant is low, recover the refrigerant, evacuate, and recharge unit to nameplate amount. · If there is any amount of refrigerant in the system charge from the low side. · Always charge by liquid inverted.
Verify with tool manufacturers that all tools used during this repair are non- sparking and can be used with A2L Refrigerants. No halide torches for leak testing. Refrigerant monitors or detectors must be used to detect refrigerant in the work area.
· R-32 A2L Refrigerant Recovery System. · Vacuum Pump rated for A2L refrigerant (capable of 300 microns or less vacuum.) · Nitrogen bottle with purging and pressurizing capabilities up to 550 psi. · Oxy/ Acetylene torch or similar equipment utilized for brazing. · Non-Sparking (Not Halide)Electronic Leak Detector rated for detecting A2L refrigerant. · Digital refrigerant scale

R-32 SEALED SYSTEM REPAIR
Refrigerant Removal, Recovery, and Evacuation
NOTE: When accessing the refrigerant in the system to make repairs or for any other purpose, conventional procedures shall be used. However, for FLAMMABLE REFRIGERANTS (R-32 is classified in the A2L group for mildly flammable refrigerants) it is important that best practice is followed since flammability is a consideration. Follow all EPA 608 regulations and procedures along with AHRI 15 Best Practices for A2L refrigerants.
Warning: Ensure sufficient ventilation at the repair place. Warning: Ensure there are no open flame sources or hot surfaces that exceed 1200°F in the work area. Warning: Discharge capacitors in a way that won’t cause any spark. The standard procedure to short circuit the capacitor terminals usually
creates sparks.
NOTICE: Ensure that the following precautions are taken prior to opening the sealed system.
· Verify Recovery machine is rated for A2L refrigerants. · Mark the Job site inspection area as flammable work zone using appropriate signs. · Utilize a Refrigerant leak detector or refrigerant monitor to sense the area for the presence of refrigerants. · Disconnect all power supply to unit. · Properly ground all equipment and hoses along with tank to prevent a static build up . · Ensure adequate ventilation is provided for the job site. · Do not mix A2L refrigerant Gages and hoses with other refrigerants. · Keep exposure of refrigerant to Air to as minimum as possible (creates a dangerous condition). · Under no circumstances is the mixing of refrigerants in the recovery cylinders allowed and should be strictly avoided at all times. Do not
introduce oxygen into any recovery cylinders. 1. Install a piercing valve to recover refrigerant from the sealed system. (Piercing valve must be removed from the system before recharging.) 2. Recover refrigerant to EPA sec. 608 standards. If a low charge is suspected weigh recovered refrigerant and compare to unit nameplate. NOTE: DO NOT RECOVER TO A VACUUM PRIOR TO FLUSHING WITH NITROGEN. STOP RECOVERY AT 0-5 PSI. 3. Flush refrigerant out of system with a dry nitrogen purge, make sure you energize and de-energize all reversing valves and solenoid valves to release any trapped refrigerant.(3-5 minutes). 4. Perform an evacuation to 29.9 in. hg. and break vacuum with Dry Nitrogen. 5. Re-purge the unit for 3-5 mins or until the nitrogen flows out both process tubes. 6. Re-evacuate unit to 29.9 in. hg. and break vacuum with Dry Nitrogen. 8. Open the refrigerant circuit by cutting out components. 9. Cut off the crimp on the process tubes and install a 5/16 copper access fitting to the process tube.
Transportation Be aware that local, state, and national codes exist that regulate the transportation of flammable gases. Be sure to become informed of the regulations and always stay compliant.

class fire extinguisher available to hand.
Warning: No person carrying out work in relation to a REFRIGERATING SYSTEM which involves exposing any pipe work shall use any sources of ignition in
such a manner that it may lead to the risk of fire or explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking, should be kept sufficiently far away from the site of installation, repairing, removing and disposal, during which refrigerant can possibly be released to the surrounding space. Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment is to be surveyed to make sure that there are no flammable hazards or ignition risks.
Warning: Ensure there are no open flame sources or hot surfaces that exceed 1200°F in the work area.
NOTE: When brazing is required, the following procedures shall be carried out in the right order: 1. Remove and recover refrigerant, and evacuate the system. Refer to the refrigerant removal, recovery, and evacuation section of this manual.
Warning: Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the searching for or detection of refrigerant leaks. A halide torch (or any other
detector using a naked flame) shall not be used. 2. Perform a check of the work area for the presence of flammable refrigerant prior to brazing or performing any hot work. Use a non-Sparking (Not Halide ) A2L certified Electronic Leak Detector rated for detecting R-32 refrigerant. 3. Re-pipe all repairs and install all components to sealed system. 4. Purge nitrogen through the unit. at approximately 2-3 psi through the duration of the brazing process. (Nitrogen must be purging through the unit while any brazing is being performed.) 5. Pressure test unit to 550 psi minimum and hold pressure for 30 minutes minimum. Inspect for any leaks with a leak detection fluid and repair as required. Repeat as required until system passes leak test. 6. Triple evacuate the unit to achieve a 500 micron level. 7. Pressurize nitrogen to 550 psi and leak test all connections with a leak detection fluid. Repair any leaks found. 8. Reassemble sealed enclosures accurately. If seals are worn, replace them. 9. Charge the system with the amount of refrigerant specified on the model nameplate. Refer to the refrigerant charging section of this manual for charging procedures.
