Detection
Refrigerant shortage detection I:
Refrigerant shortage is detected by checking the input current value and the compressor
running frequency. If the refrigerant is short, the input current is smaller than the normal value.
Refrigerant shortage detection II:
Refrigerant shortage is detected by checking the discharge pipe temperature and the opening of
the electronic expansion valve. If the refrigerant is short, the discharge pipe temperature tends
to rise.
Refrigerant shortage detection III:
Refrigerant shortage is detected by checking the difference between suction and discharge
temperature.
