The following are the procedures for completing each step of the Freeze Cycle Refrigeration System Operational
Analysis Tables. Each procedure must be performed exactly for the table to work correctly.
Wait 5 minutes into the
freeze cycle.
Compare temperatures of
compressor discharge line
and harvest valve inlet.
The harvest valve inlet is
Hot
-and-
approaches the
temperature of a Hot
compressor discharge
line.
The harvest valve inlet
is Cool enough to hold
hand on
-and-
the compressor
discharge line is Hot.
The harvest valve inlet
is Cool enough to hold
hand on
-and-
the compressor
discharge line is Cool
enough to hold hand on.
The harvest valve inlet
is Cool enough to hold
hand on
-and-
the compressor
discharge line is Hot.
