Head Pressure Control - The microprocessor con- trols the condenser fans in order to maintain the lowest con- densing temperature possible, thus the highest unit efficiency. Instead of using the conventional head pressure control meth- ods, the fans are controlled by the position of the EXV and suction superheat.
As the condensing temperature drops, the EXV opens to maintain the proper suction superheat. Once the EXV is fully open, if the condensing temperature continues to drop, the suction superheat begins to rise. Once the suction super- heat is greater than 40 F (22.2 C), a fan stage is removed after 2 minutes,
As the condensing temperature rises, the EXV closes to maintain the proper suction superheat. Once the EXV has closed to 39.5% open (300 steps open), a fan stage is added after 2 minutes.
