Drain/Fill
1The evaporator extracts heat from the process fluid, causing the refrigerant to vaporize (evaporate) into a gas.
2Vaporized refrigerant travels to the compressor, where the low-pressure vapor is compressed into a high-pressure, high-temperature vapor.
3The high-pressure, high-temperature vapor travels from the compressor through the condenser, where the fan cools and condenses the vapor into a high-pressure, high- temperature liquid.
4High-pressure, high-temperature liquid is metered back to the evaporator by the expansion valve (TXV), changing it to a low-pressure, low-temperature vapor.
