GENERAL INFORMATIONPRODUCT INFORMATIONINTEGRATION INTO SYSTEMORDERING INFORMATION SYSTEM DESIGN
Manage superheat
During normal operation, refrigerant enters
the compressor as a superheated vapor. Liquid
flood back occurs when a part of the refrigerant
entering the compressor is still in liquid state.
Liquid flood back can cause oil dilution and, in
extreme situations lead to liquid slugging that
can damage compression parts.
Requirement
System evaluation
In steady state conditions,
• Suction superheat must remain within
9°F to 54°F
• According to the floodback chart
In transient conditions,
• According to the floodback chart
Use the tables below in relation with the system
charge and the application to quickly evaluate
the risk and potential tests to perform.
Charge limit is defined in table below:
Discharge temperature sensor must be placed
onto the discharge fitting and be insulated.
Oil temperature sensor must be placed on the
mid shell, closed to the lower shell, and be
insulated.
