6-3
Evaluating and Adjusting Refrigerant Charge
6-3-1
Refrigerant Overcharge and undercharge
Overcharging or undercharging of refrigerant can cause the following symptoms:
Before attempting to adjust the amount of refrigerant in the system, thoroughly check the operating conditions of the system.
Then, adjust the refrigerant amount by running the unit in the refrigerant amount adjust mode.
6-3-2
Checking the Refrigerant Charge during Operation
Operate all indoor units in either cooling-only or heating-only mode, and check such items as discharge temperature, subcool-
ing, low pressure, suction temperature, and shell bottom temperature to estimate the amount of refrigerant in the system.
6-3-3
Maximum refrigerant charge
There is a limit to the amount of refrigerant that can be charged into a unit. Observe the maximum refrigerant charge in the
table below.
HP72-240Y(T)(S)NU-A
The system comes to an abnormal stop, displaying 1500 (overcharged refrigerant) on
the controller.
Overcharged refrigerant
The operating frequency does not reach the set frequency, and there is a problem with
performance.
Insufficient refrigerant amount
The system comes to an abnormal stop, displaying 1102 (abnormal discharge temper-
ature) on the controller.
Symptoms
Conclusion
Discharge temperature is high. (Normal discharge temperature is below 95°C [203°F].)
Slightly under-
charged refrigerant
Low pressure is unusually low.
Suction superheat is large. (Normal suction superheat is less than 20°C [36°F].)
Compressor shell bottom temperature is high. (The difference between the compressor shell
bottom temperature and low pressure saturation temperature (Te) is greater than 60°C [108°F].)
Discharge superheat is small. (Normal discharge superheat is greater than 10°C [18°F].)
Slightly overcharged
refrigerant
Compressor shell bottom temperature is low. (The difference between the compressor shell bot-
tom temperature and low pressure saturation temperature (Te) is less than 5°C [9°F].)
