High Pressure Safety Valve HVAC: Description and Operation
A/C High Pressure Safety Valve

An A/C compressor relief valve has been incorporated in the compressor's A/C manifold and tube to:

-

relieve unusually high refrigerant system discharge pressure buildups, 3103 kPa (450 psi) and above.

-

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

-

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