    ts so helpful to learn just the way the reversing valve works. it allows to reverse cycles for both heating and cooling. The way it works the reversing valve it has two insede slide valves that it all depends what your calling for (heat or cooling)its going to close a side of the valve and open the other one closes.

    Hi, In cooling mode, when the cooling cycle ends and the compressor is turned off, is the reversing valve typically held on (so that it doesn't slide back under the residual pressure) or is it typically disabled (open circuit/power down) along with the compressor? I.e., is the reversing valve solenoid typically on all summer, or just when the compressor is active?

    So ice makers use this as well. When it goes from building ice, once the desired ice size is met on the evaporator fingers or trays. The reversing valve switches from freezing to heating the evaporator momentarily to drop the ice off the fingers or tray into the bucket or ice catch tray

    In relation to the compressor at what height should this component be at?
    I ask this because most small systems they are above the level of the compressor, and there is a chiller which this component keeps failing where it's in line with the bottom of the component.
    Another question in relation is because it's low in the system would oil not get in and somehow block operations.

  • @rando_webb8704
    @rando_webb8704 3 года назад

    So the O wire from the out door units control board would run to that cilinoid, and is energized when the T-stat is set to cool. If it is set to cool and the O wire is pulled the unit should switch from cool to heat. And if that doesn't happen the reversing valve has failed. Sorry, if this seems like I'm teaching, I'm actually trying to get the diagnosis process down in my own head so I can figure this out for my costomers.

    There is a mistaken in the drawing in "cooling mode". The black moving part in the reversing valve should be drawn to the left site in stead of being in the right side, what is not so in the drawing. So it is advised to do this, to better understand the drawing. Nevertheless the gasflow side is correctly indicated.

    So it’s really a “heat pump” whichever direction the refrigerant is flowing? It’s just that the condenser and evaporator are swapping their tasks over in the heating mode. An air conditioner and heat pump are two names for one device. A reverse cycle capable air conditioner?

      Seeing as I have 8 minutes and 42 seconds of experience on the subject, you should trust me when I say your reversing valve solenoid is failing to energize when a call for cool is issued by your thermostat.
      I don't know what sort of unit you have but it could be a simple as replacing a capacitor.
      Best thing to do is call an HVAC specialist to troubleshoot the valve.

    Way too confusing of an explanation. Could have been better.

      It's really easy to understand and well explained, I don't know what you are talking about.

      Hey Mike, Glad we could help and you enjoyed. Congrats on first comment too!. I see from your vid you've got a lot of boilers and calorifiers in your building. Check out a company/product called circosense.com, it would save your building a good amount of energy & $$$
