Refrigerant filling apparatus of refrigerating and air conditioning apparatus and refrigerant filling method of refrigerating and air conditioning apparatus

摘要

The present invention is directed to a refrigerant filling apparatus of the refrigerating and air conditioning apparatus that can automatically finish filling of a refrigerant after filling to an appropriate amount, without a need to install an extra valve except for a valve provided at a refrigerant cylinder, in between the refrigerating and air conditioning apparatus and the refrigerant cylinder, which is necessary for filling the refrigerant. The refrigerant filling apparatus of the refrigerating and air conditioning apparatus, which includes: a refrigerant circuit having a compressor 1, a four-way valve 2, an indoor side heat exchanger 3, a pressure reducing solenoid valve 4, an outdoor side heat exchanger 3, and an accumulator 6; a refrigerant cylinder 10 connected to the refrigerant circuit; a control unit that controls filling of the refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder 10 to the refrigerant circuit and decides refrigerant filling modes; and a display unit installed to the control unit and displays the refrigerant filling modes.
