  • ICE ON EVAPORATOR?
    What do you think is the cause?
    In this video, I have made my own reason why there is an ice build up in the evaporator.
    in case you have your own feel free to comment.

    thank you for ur time to show us problems of recarding ac and provision systems on board. the line after the expansion valve can be icy but when the TEV is icy this means that a sudden drop of pressure happens before the TEV which can be caused if the TEV filter is dirty.

    I work on a lot of really old systems, have seen a few TXV's where the inlet filter has become blocked with dirt. Also have had a few where systems have been converted from CFC's to HFC's where the TXV has got wax in it which also blocks the flow.

  • @TheBTheBeurope
    @TheBTheBeurope Рік тому +5

    That's why there is a method called ''DEFROSTING''
    (1) Stillstand - Shutting the system till the ice melts
    (2) Let the fan only run in the evaporator
    (3) Heating rod in the evaporator.
    (4) High-Pressure hot gas flowing pipe from the compressor directly to the evaporator.
    All the above-mentioned processes apart from the 3, are automated and have time intervals.
    You adjusted the TEV by turning counterclockwise. This means you opened the valve more. This means more refrigerant is sprayed in the evaporator. When more refrigerant is sprayed in the evaporator, it gets cooked more slowly ( turns to gas form more slowly). This will result in the refrigerant leaving the evaporator in a semi-liquid state. This will result in very low SUPER HEAT.
    I don't think you have solved the problem.
    The temperature in the vegetable room seems to return back to normal because after you cleaned the ice block from the evaporator the fan is circulating the air in the room properly. But soon ice block in going to form in the evaporator and the same problem returns back.
    Instead of adjusting the TEV, you should have checked the DEFROSTING system's functionality.

    Should you check for superheat with a thermometer and gauge pressure prior to adjusting valve? I hope so.

  • @smileforever3486

    isn't the TXV supposed to automatically adjust the amount of refrigerant passing through by sensing the refrigerant temperature at the output of the evaporator coil?

    If you have to adjust the TXV to solve an issue that wasn't there before with similar settings I would say the TXV is faulty or you possibly miss something else (blockage around inlet TXV?) and are solving a problem by offsetting your TXV. (P.S. I sailed on he same vessel as you in 2009 - Maersk Salalah.)

  • @tsalikistsalikis3118
    @tsalikistsalikis3118 Рік тому +3

    THAT'S WHY YOU SHOULD ALWAYS USE EVAPORATORS WITH HEAT ELEMENT AND TIMER FOR DEFROST NOT ONLY FOR TEMPERATURES BELOW ZERO BUT ALSO FOR TEMPERATURE ABOVE ZERO WITH HIGH OR LOW HUMIDITY IN THE COLD ROOM.
    AND YOU WILL NOT SEE FOR EVER ICE IN THE FINS OF YOUR EVAPORATORS.
    NEVER TOUCH/TRY TO ADJUST THE EXPANSION VALVE BECAUSE IT IS FACTORY ADJUSTED WITH THE CORRECT SUPER HEAT.
    CHOOSE THE CORRECT ORIFICE.
    KEEP THIS ADVICE FOR THE FUTURE.

  • @dmitriibugayov6975
    @dmitriibugayov6975 2 місяці тому +1

    I can be wrong, but Superheat is the amount of heat added to a vapor above its boiling point. As a result, it shows the amount of heat your Freon has gathered over time.
    This means that the evaporator is frozen because you have too LOW superheat, but not too high! Too much Freon goes through txv and in the video you are reducing the quantity of Freon and that is why increasing superheat. Am I correct, colleagues?

      If its after the filter ( the side that goes in the compressor suction port ) that means you've got a clogged suction filter, and maybe you are flooding back the compressor but maybe not, only superheat could tell you if you've evaporated all of the refrigerant or if there is still some trapped in liquid state

    Actually you need not to adjust expansion since it is a factory set. Adjusting is only be done in case of emergency. The icing of of evaporator not clearly emphasising the major cause.There is one big reason why icing occurs immediately. It is always the fault when malfunction of one component but pointing to expansion valve is really not the real thing at first.
