Harvest Cycle Refrigeration Sequence
Hot gas flows through the energized hot gas valve,
heating the evaporator. The hot gas valve is sized to
allow the proper amount of hot gas into the evaporator.
This specific hot gas valve sizing, along with the harvest
pressure regulating (H.P.R.) system, assures proper
heat transfer, without the hot gas condensing to liquid
and slugging the compressor.
The harvest pressure regulating (H.P.R.) valve helps
maintain the suction pressure during the harvest cycle.
(See “H.P.R. System” on Page 7-27.)
