learn to read the chart for the type of freon you are running - a standard home unit will suck at 67 lbs and the high side will vary according to the outside ambient air temp - I get different readings in Las Vegas than I do in Portland!

Why air condition compressor is overheating?

IT COULD THAT YOUR SYSTEM IS EITHER OVERCHARGED OR UNDER CHARGED. ALSO CHECK YOUR FURNACE FILTER.AND MAKE SURE YOUR OUTDOOR UNIT is clear of dirt and obstructions. --------------------------------------------------------------- There are several reasons for a compressor to overheating High compression ratios are the result of either lower than normal suction pressures or higher than normal discharge pressures. Changes in suction pressure will affect the compression ratio more rapidly than changes in the discharge pressure. For this reason, it is important to keep the suction pressure at its highest possible value. Causes of low suction pressure can include incorrect sizing of components, misadjusted or defective metering devices (TXVs), loss of refrigerant charge, plugged driers or strainers, and excessive suction line pressure drop. Although not as sensitive to change as the suction pressure, the discharge pressure can still greatly affect the compression ratio. Keeping the discharge pressure within normal operating conditions is still important. Causes of high discharge pressure can include dirty condensing coils, undersized discharge line, a blockage or recirculation of condenser air, erratic condenser fan operation, refrigerant overcharge, noncondensibles in the system, and an undersized condenser.


What is unit of differential pressure?

Let me differentiate first between design pressure and mechanical design pressure. Design (or discharge) pressure is the pressure at the outlet of the pump, the pressure you've designed the pump to deliver. The mechanical design pressure is a value that the pump casing and downstream piping have to be able to withstand as a minimum*. I presume you mean design pressure as discharge pressure. In this case, differential pressure is the difference between the discharge pressure and the suction pressure (the pressure at the inlet of the pump**). * this is calculated taking into account that a pump would be working against a 'blocked discharge' or a closed valve in the outlet piping ** imagine a reservoir filled with liquid

Why you have to connect the pressurization unit pipes to the pump suction of the chilled water pump and not to discharge header?

As the chilled water system is a close system and basically consist of two loops i.e one loop from pump discharge to load & second loop from load to pump suction.Now,the effect of pressure drop will be more prominent in the second loop ,after the flow exit the load.Hence we have to alleviate the pressure where the effect of pressure loss & small water requirement is more prominent and i.e the suction side of the pump.


What is the SI unit for suction?

I guess that would be measured in units of pressure: Pascal = Newton/meter2.


Why is discharge line leaving outside unit cold on central ac?

The expansion device inside the outside unit expands the refrigerant gas and as a result, the discharge lines chills
