4.2 PIPING SYSTEM CONDENSER COILS MOTOR CAPILLARY TUBE TURBO FAN EVAPORATOR COILS Following is a brief description of the important components and their function in what is called the refrigeration system. Reference should be made to Figure 32 to follow the refrigerating cycle and the flow of the refrigerant in the cooling cycle.
4.3 TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE In general, possible trouble is classified in two kinds. The one is called Starting Failure which is caused by an electrical defect. The other is Ineffective Air Con- ditioning caused by a defect in the refrigeration circuit and improper application. Unit is running but cooling is ineffective.
