摘要
An apparatus for the diagnosis of a cooling system which receives inputs in the form of data about a cooling system, and measurements made from the cooling system, and which then calculates the amount of refrigerant to be removed or added to the cooling system for optimal performance. In addition, methods for ensuring correct setup of a cooling system are disclosed. The methods may apply to FXV (fixed expansion valve) systems and may include making and displaying a prediction of a refrigerant adjustment based upon measurements such as return air wetbulb temperature, condenser air entering temperature, refrigerant superheat vapor line temperature, and refrigerant superheat vapor line pressure. A method for ensuring correct setup of a cooling system is disclosed. The method may apply to TXV (thermostatic expansion valve) systems and may include making and displaying a prediction of a refrigerant adjustment based upon measurements such as refrigerant subcooling liquid line temperature and refrigerant subcooling liquid line pressure. A method for ensuring correct setup of a cooling system is disclosed. The method may include making and displaying a prediction of a refrigerant adjustment or of an airflow adjustment based upon measurements such as return air wetbulb temperature, return air drybulb temperature and supply air drybulb temperature. Recommendations may also be based upon evaporator coil temperature splits. Methods for visual identification, archiving of associated measurement and verification data, and viewing of data for a correct setup of a cooling system are disclosed. Methods of maintaining correct setup of a cooling system through use of labels and locking, double-sealing, color-coded, and laser etched Schrader caps are disclosed.
