Refrigerant Pressure Sensor / Switch: Description and Operation

The dual pressure switch is a combination of the low pressure switch (for checking the quantity of refrigerant) and the high pressure switch (for
prevention of overheating). It is installed in the receiver, and, when the pressure becomes approximately 200 kPa (29 psi) or lower, the compressor
stops, thus preventing the compressor from being damaged by heat. When the pressure reaches 3,214 kPa (470 psi) or higher, the compressor stops, thus
preventing overheating. There is generally no necessity for inspection; if, however, an unusual condition, such as non- operation of the compressor is
encountered, check by following the procedures.
