Ammonia line size capacities are based on IIAR Refrigeration Piping Handbook tables. Halocarbon line size capaciites
are based on a nominal 3 ft/sec liquid velocity.
For applications with a large pressure drop across the Motorized Control Valve, attention must be paid to proper outlet
line sizing to accommodate flash gas.
Ammonia, R-22 and R134a capacities are based on +86°F (+30°C) saturated liquid and +20°F(-10°C) evaporating
temperature, and intermediate to low capacity based on +20°F (-10°C) saturation temperature and -20°F (-30°C) evaporating
temperature. Capacities are with ±20% from -40°F (-40°C) to -0°F (-18°C). R404 and R507 capacities based on +95° F
(+35°C) condensing temperature.
