CHECK VALVE
A unique two-way check valve is used on the reverse cycle
heat pumps. It is pressure operated and used to direct the
fl ow of refrigerant through a single fi lter drier and to the
proper capillary tube during either the heating or cooling
cycle.

NOTE: The slide (check) inside the valve is made of tefl on.
Should it become necessary to replace the check valve,
place a wet cloth around the valve to prevent overheating
during the brazing operation.

CHECK VALVE OPERATION
In the cooling mode of operation, high pressure liquid enters
the check valve forcing the slide to close the opposite port
(liquid line) to the indoor coil. Refer to refrigerant fl ow chart.
This directs the refrigerant through the fi lter drier and cooling
capillary tube to the indoor coil.

In the heating mode of operation, high pressure refrigerant

Failure of the slide in the check valve to seat properly in
either mode of operation will cause fl ooding of the cooling
coil. This is due to the refrigerant bypassing the heating or
cooling capillary tube and entering the liquid line.

coil. This is due to the refrigerant bypassing the heating or

COOLING MODE
In the cooling mode of operation, liquid refrigerant from
condenser (liquid line) enters the cooling check valve
forcing the heating check valve shut. The liquid refrigerant
is directed into the liquid dryer after which the refrigerant
is metered through cooling capillary tubes to evaporator.
(Note: liquid refrigerant will also be directed through the
heating capillary tubes in a continuous loop during the
cooling mode).
