3.2.8 General Electronic Expansion Valve Control
When cooling/heating, PI control of electronic expansion valve is conducted to keep the heat
exchanger outlet subcooling degree constant.
•
Target heat exchanger outlet subcooling degree > actual heat exchanger outlet subcooling
degree
→
The electronic expansion valve will close.
•
Target heat exchanger outlet subcooling degree < actual heat exchanger outlet subcooling
degree
→
The electronic expansion valve will open.
∗
The value of target heat exchanger outlet subcooling degree varies depending on change of
discharge pipe superheat degree of inverter compressor, etc.
3.2.9 Hot Start Control (Only in Heating Operation)
In heating, when performing a startup, or after the defrosting cycle has been completed, the
indoor fan will be controlled in order to prevent cold air draft and secure the starting
performance (quick pressure build-up).
Indoor unit fan: OFF
Heating operation is turned ON with remote controller.
Indoor unit fan: LL tap
Indoor unit fan: L tap
Indoor unit fan: M tap
(Continuing L tap on indoor unit without M tap equipped)
Indoor unit fan: Set fan speed
