Liquid Line
If the system is configured with the SmartCool higher than the condenser unit h it may
be required to increase the degree of sub cooling to prevent flashing gas. This flashing is
caused by excess pressure drop caused by the static head of refrigerant and can cause
poor operation of the evaporator and metering device.
Careful pipe sizing is recommended to ensure that the liquid does not form gas due to
excess pressure drop
Increasing the liquid line size minimizes pipe friction and flashing due to friction pressure
drop.
However as a fail safe it is recommended that the condenser is installed below the
indoor unit to allow for correct liquid drain.
Pipe Insulation
The liquid line of the system must be insulated if passing through extremely warm places
(Boiler houses etc). Ensuring that the refrigerant does not become flash gas.
