Water content
Water content
Water is only soluble in very small quantities in the liquid refrigerant. As opposed to this refrigerant vapour and water vapour mix in any proportion.
Water possibly present in the system is conveyed through the refrigerant circuit as drops, once the dessicator in the fluid reservoir has become saturated. The function of the dessicator is no longer guaranteed. This water flows to the nozzle of the expansion valve where it turns to ice. This reduces the efficiency of the cooling.
  Note
Water destroys the air conditioning system, as acids are produced under high pressures and temperatures in combination with other contaminations.
