Zone 1 Cool and Zone 2 Defrost
The CIS is closed so high pressure refrigerant
vapor leaves the compressor and flows through
the DPR to the Zone 2 hot gas line and the open
HGS2 into the Zone 2 evaporator. There, the
refrigerant heats the Zone 2 evaporator and
condenses into high pressure liquid. Because the
SLS2 is open, the liquid refrigerant returns to the
compressor through the SLS2, the second suction
line, SLCV2 and the accumulator. The fans stay
off in the Zone 2 evaporator, allowing the coil to
defrost without warming the load.
Due to the low pressure in the second suction line,
little or no refrigerant goes through the Zone 1
evaporator.
In the condensing unit, the CIS valve closes and
opens to regulate head pressure. The purge valve
is opened continuously during defrost to drain the
condenser coil.
