When the ambient outside air temperature is 95°F, a high-efficiency air conditioning unit typically operates with a lowest condensing refrigerant temperature around 20°F to 30°F above the outdoor temperature, which would be approximately 115°F to 125°F. This temperature range ensures optimal performance while avoiding inefficiencies. However, exact temperatures can vary based on the system design and operating conditions.

What is the condensing temperature for r404?
The condensing temperature for R404A refrigerant typically ranges from 100°F to 130°F, depending on the operating conditions of the refrigeration system. It is important to consult manufacturer's guidelines and pressure-temperature charts for accurate information.
If an R 12 refrigeration system has its air cooled condensing unit on a 100F roof and the condenser outlet temperature refrigerant is 115F with how much sub cooling is the condenser operating?

What is the condensing temperature of R-12?
The boiling point of R-12 is given as -29.8oC. Now replaced by R-134A which had a boiling point of -26.3oC. Some oils and rubbers previously used with R-12 may not be compatible with R-134A.
How does the sunshine affect the operation of a condensing unit?
Sunshine can increase the operating pressure and temperature of a condensing unit, which can affect its efficiency and cooling capacity. This can lead to higher energy consumption and potential strain on the system, especially if it's not designed to handle the increased load. Providing shade or proper ventilation for the condensing unit can help mitigate these effects.
What is the low side and high side pressure for r410a?
Technicians with R-22 experience will need to become familiar with working with high and low side pressures that are much higher when using R-410A. A typical R-22 system operating normally with a head pressure of 260 psig at a 120-degree condensing temperature and a low side pressure of 76 psig at a 45-degree evaporator saturation temperature will find the equivalent pressures in a R-410A system to be much higher.A normally operating R-410A system with the same condensing temperature of 120 degrees and a 45 degree evaporator saturation temperature will have a high side pressure of 418 psig and a low side pressure of 130 psig.Although refrigerant 410A is a near-azeotrope and has a slight temperature glide, there is no need to correct for refrigerant dew point and bubble point differences. Superheat and sub cooling calculations can be calculated the same way we have always done with R-22 refrigerant. The only difference will be the higher pressure-temperature relationship when reading the temperature-pressure chart. The temperature glide for R-410A is only .3 degrees Fahrenheit and can be ignored and fractionation is not a concern.
The refrigerant pressure inside an R-410A unit which is at room temperature (72 degrees F) and not operating is?
The refrigerant pressure inside an R-410A unit at room temperature (72 degrees F) and not operating will typically be around 118-120 psi for the low side and 405-435 psi for the high side. These values may vary slightly depending on factors like elevation and specific system conditions.
When viewing refrigerant through the liquid sight glass what is an indication that the system is low on refrigerant?
Bubbles visible in the glass with the system operating.Bubbles visible in the glass with the system operating.
Why would a lower outside temp cause your Walk in cooler compressor to cut off until it warms up?
because the refrigerant pressure is lower than the cut-in pressure setting of the unit at very cold temperatures. try installing a crankcase heater on your compressor. You may have an older refrigerant, which has a lower operating pressure. Replacing the older refrigerant with a newer compatible one will do the trick also. This will bring the pressure up while the operating temperature stays the same.
What causes Condensing unit to blow cold air outside and warm air inside vents?
Compressor not operating.
Will ac consume less power during winter?
Air conditioning usually consumes less power in winter, but mainly because it isn't needed as much. You should expect the air moving parts of the machine to have litttle interest in the outdoor air temperature. You might expect that the refrigerant compressor would consume less power in the winter because the the condensing temperature and head pressure would be lower. In practice, the the A/C must limit the system condensing temperature and maintain a higher head pressure to avoid the compressor oil being pumped out and/or liquid refrigerant being returned instead of vapor and damaging the compressor. Head pressure controls often begin to maintain condensing pressure and temperature at roughly 80°F, below which the condenser fans are either slowed or cycled on and off. Larger systems will employ additional safeguards. Any electrical savings from the condenser fan running slower or less often are made up for by a compressor heater that runs in the compressor off cycle to keep refrigerant from condensing in a cold compresssor shell and filling it with liquid refrigerant that would result in damage when it started. Simple systems lacking head pressure controls risk shortened operating life below 60°F and may suffer compressor damage at lower temperatures. So... if you are looking for efficiency in data center cooling in a cold area, the A/C itself won't help. A more complex system with a chilled water loop may be configured to use either refrigeration or simple heat exchange. Air to Air heat exchangers can also be employed.
What is the required dischage pressure of R134a?
R-134A shares the same basic operating characteristics as R-12. There is no "required" discharge pressure. Most manufacturers of equipment use 100deg.F as a standard for condensing temperature, in rating the capacity of their units. Discharge pressure is dependent on quantity of charge, ambient outside temperature (condensing pressure), and suction pressure. These factors all control discharge pressure in a normally operating system. Throw in a compressor with valve leakage or piston ring/ seal issues and it gets more complicated.
