  • Page 10: Acr

    In order to correctly apply the treated subjects of this chapter, we strongly advise you to configure your handheld first (go to ‘2. Configurations’). 4.1. ACR System management You can define and save ACR Systems on your Metreco. • Create new ACR system 1. Go to ‘Main Menu’.
  • Page 11 4. Determine the Superheat, Subcool and 9. Select a spot on the system. You will get evaporator exit air temperature target. a list of available sensors eligible for this position and whose signal is received. 10. You can also press the locate button on the sensor.
  • Page 12: Choose Existing Acr System

    • Choose existing ACR system If you have created and saved ACR systems, you can choose a system in your list of clients and their systems. By choosing this, the placement of the sensors of your current system will be lost.
  • Page 13: Edit Current Acr System

    • Edit current ACR system • Remove existing ACR system If you have created and saved ACR systems, Saved systems can be removed (deleted): you can modify the data. The main idea is to change the placement of the sensors while 1.

    ACR system. The sensors also need to be ‘placed’ on an existing system in Metreco. (‘ACR System’ - ‘Place Sensors’). By combining different sensors, e.g. pressure and temperature, extra values can be calculated.
  • Page 15: Diagnosis

    • Diagnosis In this chapter you will learn how to use the diagnosis tool. Metreco can suggest possible causes (*) for off-target measurements. First of all you will need to define targets for the following measurements: 1. Choose an ACR system (see 4.1.).

    5 seconds. This data can be used in Measurement Reports. You’re getting a list of saved data (time & value) that you can retrieve from the Metreco on your PC via USB. This can then be used for technical or commercial purposes (see ‘4.5. Customer & Systems follow-up’...
  • Page 17: Measurement Report

    - A Measurement Report gives you the last logged measured values before ending the logging. The report is saved automatically when ending the logging and can be recalled on Metreco and downloaded on PC for later use in internal reports or reports to your customer.
  • Page 18: Intervention Report

    • Intervention Report In the Intervention Report you can save data on the servicing you have done and recall the data on Metreco or use it on your PC: - Leak detection (leak detector & result) - Vacuum decay test (possibility to store the vacuum sensor value) - Pressure test with N2 or N2H2 (possibility to store the pressure sensor value) - Refrigerant changes: recovered &...
  • Page 19 (see ‘4.4. Tests’). When choosing manual in- put, enter the measured value OR take a live read-out from your vacuum sensor, if placed on the installation and assigned in Metreco. 11. Select the used gas (N2 or N2+H2) 18. Select ‘Start/End’ and complete.

    4.4. Tests • Pressure Decay Test - PDT The pressure decay test gives you the possibility to follow up and log the legaly imposed pres- sure test. There is the possibility to automatically compensate the pressure for temperature variations. A temperature and pressure sensor are what you need for this test. 4.
