R-22 and R-410A Operating Pressures on Air Conditioners


 R-22 and R-410A Operating Pressures on Air Conditioners

In this HVAC Training Video, I show the R-22 and R-410A Range of Operating Pressures on Air Conditioning Systems! I show why we Measure Pressures and Temperatures When Checking the Refrigerant Charge of an Air Conditioner! Supervision is needed by a licensed HVACR Tech while performing tasks as Experience and Apprenticeship garners Wisdom and Safety.

Any work related to the topics in this video should be performed by licensed technicians or by apprentices under the supervision of licensed technicians. AC Service Tech LLC is not responsible for any possible damages or injuries caused by the use or misuse of any information provided.

 I go over what affects the pressures on the low side and the high side, the saturation state pressures and temperatures, what too low of a pressure means on the vapor side and what too high of a pressure means on the liquid line. I go over the specific ranges of pressure for R-410a and R-22. Supervision is needed by a licensed HVAC Tech while doing this as Experience and Apprenticeship garners Wisdom and Safety.

If you are not sure what type of refrigerant your Air Conditioner takes it is easy to find out? It can be either the Old R22 or the new Eco friendly R410a. The easy way is to look at the label of your system. Like that one. Right there -R22

Or 410a here. R410a in that mini split.

However, what do you do if you are not able to find a label with the information or the label is faded out? OK there is another way. Each type of refrigerant have specific characteristics. Like specific pressure at a given temperature. Lucky enough the R22 and R410a are quite different. The way it works is we can use a PT Chart. Here we can see that a refrigerant have a specific pressure at particular temperature.
