When the maximum pressure of the refrigerant is achieved in the condensor and the maximum temperature differential is acheived between the condensor coil and the surrounding medium. (air, water, or other)
It cools the liquid refrigerant after it is compressed from gas to a liquid from the compressor.
Condensor
Your condensor outside , where the compressor is . should have an information plate showing the type of refrigerant used
If you want to take the condensor off, you need a refrigerant recovery system.
what happens when refrigerant enters the condenser
Water cooled chiller work on principal that water is circulated in condenser for removal of heat from the system and refrigerant gas is thus condensed in condensor.
Prices can range from a simple refrigerant charge approx $100.00 to a complete replacement of evaporator, condensor, and compressor approx. $1200-1500.
Refrigerant is pumped by a compressor located in the out door section called the condensor to a evaporator coil as a liquid through a metering device.Your air handler or furnace blows air from your home across the evaporator where the liquid refrigerant expands into a gas and picks up the heat from the air across the coil.Then the gas is pumped to the condensor and is again condensed into a liquid through the means of cooling the gas usually by a fan pulling air across the coils of the outdoor unit.

The compressor is a pump. Its job is to raise the pressure of the refrigerant and push it around the system. The condensor's job is to cool the pressurized refrigerant so it can condense into a liquid. It usually looks like a bunch of tubing with attached aluminum fins, like the radiator on your car.
