System evaluation
HP and LP must be monitored to respect operating envelope limitation. We consider two types of operating
envelope management: Basic and Advanced.
Table 28: System evaluation
• HP and LP switch
• MOP (Max Operating Pressure) ensured by expansion device
• Condensing pressure control
• DGT external setting points: R410A max 135°C (275°F), R454B/R452B max
150°C (302°F)
• HP and LP sensor
• Operating envelope limits integrated into control logic
• Temperature measurement (monitoring by sensor)

Manage superheat
During normal operation, refrigerant enters the compressor as a superheated vapor. Liquid ood back occurs when
a part of the refrigerant entering the compressor is still in liquid state.
Liquid ood back can cause oil dilution and, in extreme situations lead to liquid slugging that can damage the
compressor.
Requirement
In steady state conditions the expansion device must ensure a suction superheat within 5K to 30K (9 to 54°F).
System evaluation
Use the table in relation with the application to quickly evaluate the potential tests to perform.
