What is a metering device on a refrigerator?

A metering device on a refrigerator is usually a capillary(cap)tube. It is a very small copper line located somewhere between the condenser coils (outside-hot) and the evaporator coils (cooling coils). It reduces the pressure of the refrigerant coming from outside as it enters the evap coils inside. Refrigerant cools under low pressure thus cooling desired inside area when air is blown across the cold coils. Think of a kinked garden hose and how on the spicket side of the hose the pressure is great, but on the other side the pressure is decreased. That is basically the purpose of a metering device.


Function of expansion valve?

Metering device The metering device controls the flow of liquid refrigerant through the system. The liquid enters at a high-pressure, high-temperature, sub-cooled state and leaves as a low-pressure, low temperature, expanded liquid state. Accurator Piston and Thermostatic Expansion Valves are the most widely used metering devices. Accurator Pistons are widely used because of their low cost and flexibility. The piston can easily be changed to match the capacity of the condensing unit. The Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV) is the most efficient type of metering device. The TXV automatically adjusts the flow of the liquid refrigerant based on the superheat of the refrigerant leaving the evaporator coil. As the load on the evaporator increases, the TXV increases the flow of refrigerant. This maintains the proper superheat. The TXV is efficient throughout a variety of system operating conditions, while the accurator is efficient only under designed conditions.


How do you know where the high end or low end of your cars ac unit is?

The high pressure (discharge) side starts at the compressor outlet and ends at the metering device inlet. This side will have the smaller refrigerant lines. The low pressure (vacuum) side begins at the metering device outlet and ends at the compressor inlet. This side will have the larger refrigerant lines.
