Pump-down Residual Operation
When activating compressor, if the liquid refrigerant remains in the heat exchanger, the liquid
enters into the compressor and dilutes oil therein resulting in decrease of lubricity.
Therefore, the pump-down residual operation is performed to collect the refrigerant in the heat
exchanger when the compressor is down.
