My Adler Barbour seems to make refrigerant.

Think about why a totally closed system might have a significantly different pressure for the suction and pressure sides of a compressor when running and the same pressure on each side when the system is shut down for a while. You seem to be saying that your stabilized system pressure is high.... Have you checked the temperature of the system -- usually OAT and looked at a temperature - pressure table to be sure that it isn't a temperature problem? He's misreading the gauges, has bad gauges, or is wrong about the system being in a stable state. You two are hopeless as you both can't seem to render things down to the basics. The basics are that the suction side and the compressed side will carry the same psi after the system has sat all night long turned off. It doesn't matter where one puts the gauge as the pressure will be the same throughout. The compressor *leaks* and is not some sort of impermeable membrane. Duh. And don't say there is some kind of a check valve in the system as that would also be silly as the evaporator is a free flow device. Silly speculation as to the system being hot might be the problem are just that - silly as the compressor will be at room temperature in the morning. Actually it will be closer to water temperature as it's installed in the bilge. My question of where does the extra psi come from remains unanswered. |
