Prescriptions for laying
Vertical ascending gas lines set a trap every 4 metres
Vertical fluid lines:
o
The complete miscibility between oil and
refrigerant assures entrainment of
lubricant in all conditions
o
Pay attention to the fact that in the case of
descending lines the pressure generated
by the column of liquid is added to the
outlet pressure: for differences in level
exceeding 10 m contact the manufacturer
to have the safety pressure switches set
accordingly
o
Pay attention to the fact that in the case of
rising lines, the pressure drop due to the
travel height reduces the undercooling of
the liquid, resulting in the possible
formation of flash vapours: in this case
choose a larger sized remote condenser
and charge until you obtain 2°C of
additional undercooling for every 10 m of
height.
