High Pressure Safety Valve HVAC: Description and Operation

A/C COMPRESSOR PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

An A/C compressor pressure relief valve is incorporated in the compressor A/C manifold and tube to:
-

relieve unusually high refrigerant system discharge pressure buildups.

-

prevent damage to the A/C compressor and other system components.

-

avoid total refrigerant loss by closing after the excessive pressure has been relieved.
