Hot gas bypass regulator and Liquid gas mixer Type CPCE and LG

CPCE hot gas bypass regulator adapt compressor capacity to actual evaporator load.

They are designed for installation in a bypass line between the low and high pressure sides of the refrigeration system, for hot gas injection between the evaporator and thermostatic expansion valve.

Injection should be arranged to occur through an LG liquid gas mixer.

Features

CPCE hot gas bypass regulator

• Superior control accuracy

• Direct connection to system suction line regulates hot gas injection independent of evaporator pressure drop

• The regulator increases evaporator gas velocity, thus ensuring better oil return to compressor

• Protection against too low an evaporating temperature, i.e. prevents evaporator icing

• May be used in the following EX range: Category 3 (Zone 2)

LG liquid gas mixer

• LG provides homogeneous mixing of the liquid and hot gas refrigerant injected into the evaporator

• Prevents high suction superheat by combining hot gas injection with expansion valve characteristics

• LG can be used for hot gas defrosting or reverse cycle systems

Functions

Figure 1: CPCE

Hot gas bypass regulator, type CPCE is servo-operated.

The diaphragm (7) is actuated on the upper side by the force developed by the spring (6) and on the lower side by the pilot pressure from (3). When the pilot pressure drops below the preset value, the throttling ball is forced away from the pilot orice (9) by the spring which acts via the pressure pin (8).

The pressure over the servo piston (10) is then relieved. The dierential pressure which is thus created moves the servo piston up and causes the regulator to open so that hot gas is able to ow to the suction side.

When the pilot pressure rises above the setting, the pilot orice shuts o the evacuation from the space over the servo piston. Pressure then builds up again over the piston via the pressure equalising hole (11), thus closing the regulator.

Technical data

Table 1: Pressure range

This product is evaluated for R290, R600, R600a, R1234ze, R1270 by ignition source assessment in accordance with standard EN ISO80079-36. Flare connections are only approved for A1 and A2L refrigerants.

For complete list of approved refrigerants, visit www.products.danfoss.com and search for individual code numbers, where refrigerants are listed as part of technical data.

Sizing

For optimum performance, it is important to select a CPCE valve according to system conditions and application.

The following data must be used when sizing a CPCE valve:

• Refrigerant: HCFC, HFC and HC

• Minimum suction temperature: ts in [°C] / [bar]

• Compressor capacity at minimum suction temperature: Q1 in [kW]

• Evaporator load at minimum suction temperature: Q2 in [kW]

• Liquid temperature ahead of expansion valve: tl [°C]

• Reduction of suction temperature/suction pressure in [K]

• Connection type: are or solder

• Connection size in [in] or [mm]

Selection

Example

When selecting the appropriate valve it may be necessary to convert the actual capacity using a correction factor. This is required when system conditions are dierent from table conditions.

The following examples illustrate how this is done.

• Refrigerant: R404A

• Minimum suction temperature: ts = -30 °C

• Compressor capacity at -30 °C, Q1= 80 kW

• Evaporator load at -30 °C, Q2 = 60 kW

• Liquid temperature ahead of expansion valve: tl = 40 °C

• Reduction of suction temperature/suction pressure = 5 K

• Connection type: solder

• Connection size =

1

⁄2 in

Step 1

Determine the replacement capacity. This is done by taking the compressor capacity at minimum suction temperature Q1 minus evaporator load at minimum suction temperature Q2. Q1- Q2=80-60=20 kW

Step 2

Determine the correction factor for the reduction of suction temperature / suction pressure. From the correction factor table a suction temperature reduction of 5 K (R404A) corresponds to a factor of 1.3.

Table 2: Refrigerant and Suction temperature

The correction table is used when suction temperature change deviates from 4 K. The replacement capacity must be divided by the correction factor determined.

Step 3

Corrected replacement capacity is Q=20/1.3=15.4 kW

Step 4

Now select the appropriate capacity table for R404A and choose the column with a suction temperature of ts = -30 °C. Using the corrected replacement capacity, select a valve that provides an equivalent or greater capacity. A CPCE 12 delivers a replacement capacity of 17.9 kW at a minimum suction temperature of -30 °C.

Hot gas bypass regulator and Liquid gas mixer, type CPCE and LG

The capacities are determined by reducing the suction temperature/suction pressure at Δts = 4 K. The given suction temperatures are minimum values, i.e. after reduction.

The capacities are made up of the CPCE hot gas capacity + the extra capacity given by the thermostatic expansion valve to maintain the superheat after of the evaporator constant
