To calculate the refrigerant charge in a car, you must check its AC service valves under the hood in a car that is turned off using manifold gauges. Attach its red hose to the high-pressure gauge and the blue hose to the low-pressure gauge. Open the pressure valve on both sides. The normal low should be 25 to 45 psi. The normal high should be 225 to 250 psi.

What is the purpose of a timer wired into the compressor contactor control circuit on a refrigeration system?
A defrost control typically.
How is the capacity of a screw compressor controlled?
Capacity control is the process by which the flow of the discharged gas from the compressor is controlled. This can be accomplished by several method. 1. Controlling the speed of the compressor. 2. Controlling the clearance of the compressor. 3. Throttling the suction valve. 4. Suction valve unloader.
What role does a compessor play in a refrigeration system?
In vapour compressor refrigeration system the low pressure and temperature vapour refrigerant from evaporator is compressed. where it is compressed to a high pressure and temperature. From compressor refrigerant goes to condenser where where it changes the phase. from condenser refrigerant goes to evaporator through expansion device.
How do you calculate machine capacity?
how to calculate injection molding m/c capacity
What could happen if a semi hermetic compressor is operated with the suction service valve backseated and the discharge valve frontseated?
the compressor capacity will increase
How do you calculate condenser capacity?
condenser capacity(kw) = compressor cooling capacity (kw) + compressor input (kw) power condenser capacity(kw) = Pf + Pa
How do you calculate air compressor capacity?
Flow rate times pressure divided by input will yield air compressor capacity. Input is another term for horsepower of the compressor. The pressure can be adjusted depending on how compact the result is to be.
What lubricates the refrigeration compressor?
Oil
What are the functions of refrigeration compressor oil in a refrigeration system?
Oil in a AC compressor is there so that the mechanical parts don't over heat from friction
Where is the maximum temperature in refrigeration cycle?
at compressor
What an accumulator in refrigeration system?
right before the compressor
What is the device in a refrigeration system that causes the refrigerant to go from a liquid to a gas is the?
orifice
What is the purpose of oil in refrigeration system?
To prevent wear on the compressor.
What is the primary purpose for oil in the refrigeration mechanism?
to lubricate the compressor
What are the major parts of refrigeration?
Compressor, condensor, metering device, evaporator.
What does a condeser to in refrigeration?
Rejects the heat from the compressor and cold coil (evaporator).
What is the function of an oil separator in refrigeration cycle?
To return oil to the compressor.
