Later in the afternoon high temperatures will increase head pressure and the resulting overcharge means a lower than desired superheat and wasted energy. Not good! Overall Process: Enter refrigerant, temps, and pressures The math is done for you to display Superheat, Subcool and Airflow Target, Actual, and Difference Email all readings (detail) Other Features: Flexible units - psi, kPa, Fahrenheit, Celsius, etc. Calculates Superheat and Subcool targets Airflow - For cooling, compares a targeted difference across the coil vs. actual. Also called Delta-T or Target Evaporator Exit Temperature (TEET). Diagnosis - shows common causes for high and low superheat, subcooling.
