4 freezer walk in box that is giving me trouble. The unit is operating 18/260 psig on initial start up. when the fan kicks in pressures rise to 25/270 psig. while operating, the first row that is fed by the distributor nozzle start forming a snow blanket, causing my airflow to lower and loss of air flow eventually. The first row of the evaporator remains snowed back to the distributor nozzle, the remaining evap rows are dry. I replaced the expansion valve and installed a new frost termination/fan activation switch. Same results. The condensing unit is air cooled with a head master valve 180 psig. The valve is open to the condensing unit without signs of leaking. sight glass is clear.
any suggestions as to what this may be?
