c. Suction-tube temperature (F) at low-side service
fitting.
d. Suction (low-side) pressure (psig).
5. Using ‘‘Superheat Charging Table,’’ compare outdoor-air
temperature (F db) with evaporator inlet-air temperature
(F wb) to determine desired system operating superheat
temperature. See Tables 5A-5I and 6A-6F.
6. Using
‘‘Required
Suction-Tube
Temperature
(F)’’
table, compare desired superheat temperature with suc-
tion (low-side) operating pressure (psig) to determine proper
suction-tube temperature. See Table 7.
7. Compare actual suction-tube temperature with proper
suction-tube temperature. Using a tolerance of ±3° F, add
refrigerant if actual temperature is more than 3° F higher
than proper suction-tube temperature, or remove refrig-
erant if actual temperature is more than 3° F lower than
required suction-tube temperature.
NOTE: If the problem causing the inaccurate readings is a
refrigerant leak, refer to Check for Refrigerant Leaks sec-
tion on page 27.
