3.17 Expansion valve
The thermostatic expansion valve regulates the injection of refrigerant
into the evaporators.
3.17.1 Expansion valve adjustment.
To regulate the expansion valve, operate as follows:
•
Connect a pressure gauge to the evaporator output line
•
Operate the unit in cold mode
•
Measure the temperature near the valve probe
Figure 71 - Pressure and temperature measurement
•
Turn clockwise to increase the overheating, or anticlockwise to decrease it.
CAUTION
If overheating in the evaporator is too high, this may be due to low supply of liquid
refrigerant, therefore a low charge of refrigerant.
NOTE
For the default value, turn 3 turns clockwise from the closed position.
