Operating Pressures
GENERAL: There are many variables (airflow, air temperatures) in an air conditioning system that will affect operating
refrigerant pressures and temperatures. The charts below shows approximate conditions and is based on air flow at
the rated SCFM, entering air at 80.6 °F(DB), 66.2 °F(WB) in cooling, 68 °F(DB) in heating. (+)Heating data with 35 °F
EWT is based on the use of an anti-freeze solution having a freezing point 20 °F lower than the minimum expected
entering temperature.
