The table below shows the role of Exclusive LEV and Receiver LEV in each operation mode.
w
In COOL mode, the two indoor coil thermistor (one main and one sub) sense temperature ununiformity (superheat) at the
heat exchanger, and when temperature difference have developed, the indoor coil thermistors adjust LEV opening to dimin-
ish the superheat.This action is called Evaporation Temperature Protection.

The opening pulse of the Receiver LEV is fixed to the standard No.3 in cooling operation, and so is that of each Exclusive
LEV in heating operation.
However the opening pulse will be changed to the standard No.4 or No.5 when the discharge temperature protection or high-
pressure protection is working.
In addition to that, it will also be changed to standard No.2 or No.1 when the opening pulse of the each Exclusive LEV
becomes 100 pulse or less in cooling operation or so does that of Receiver LEV in heating operation.

• The standard opening is on the straight line, which connects an each standard point in the section where divided
into seven according to the operation frequency of compressor as shown in the figure below.
(LEV opening is controlled in proportion to the operation frequency.)
Note: Opening is adjusted at the standard opening according to the indoor unit conditions.
However, inclination of standard opening in each point of opening does not change with the original curve.
