Best Answer

When the call for cooling is satisfied, a solenoid valve closes, stopping the flow of refrigerant into the metering device. A pressure switch that controls the compressor will keep the compressor running until the pressure in the suction line reaches a low pressure. Usually this is just above 0 psig. When a call for cooling opens the solenoid valve, the pressure in the suction line starts to rise. When it reaches the set-point of the pressure switch, the compressor will start again. As a reminder. only trained and qualified personnel should work on refrigeration systems. There are many things that can be dangerous or possibly lethal while working on refrigerant systems.
