Is the vessel only for thermosyphon, if so

Usually 30-50% full or 5 minutes of running at peak load for a buffer if whatever happens to keep prime of t/syphon circuit.

Hi Ranger 1,
From thermosyphon tank,refrigerant goes to various temperature accumulator tanks.
And how to judge that the units are running at the maximum because of various temperature zone,and numbers of compressors are running at various load.
Thanks,

You describe a combination thermosyhon & liquid reciever.
I would still suggest minimum 30% to 40% level at all times for reliable operation.
