NME650R
OPERATION: Refrigeration
The refrigeration system under low condenser air
temperatures is much the same as it is under
higher temperatures, with the exception that the
resulting low head pressures cause the head
pressure control to close off the liquid line between
the condenser and the receiver.

This forces more refrigerant into the condenser
(with a small amount of discharge gas going into
the receiver to maintain pressure until the head
pressure is built back up to the rated gauge
pressure of 180 psig). At that pressure the valve
opens up the liquid line from the condenser to the
receiver.
