Re: freezer cold room pull down slow
At 20psi suction and frosting back on the suction line I would sugest you measure the superheat and pherhaps you could open your valve a bit.
At 20psi the refrigerant is evaporating at about -35deg C.
The frost on the suction could be cold gas returning and not liquid.
Check the superheat settings and set the valve up if required.
You could allow your back pressure to rise to 2b (30psi) and still freeze the room correctly.
Cheers taz.

Hi nick clark,
Has the selection of the equipments and the controls been done properly. As I am very much involved in such projects, I have seen a small mistake makes a lot of difference in refrigeration.
Please recheck the equipments and the selection of the TEV.

Re: freezer cold room pull down slow
An error may give you big problem. Did you top up with R 404a. If so you will have this problem. Then reclaim & chrage again with fresh gas.

Re: freezer cold room pull down slow
It means of assessing the load, you have just copied the the equipments from a similar Cold Room. This is a dangerous thing to do. In refrigeration, I always every project as a new one and do all the calculations in details. Even the selection of equipments and controls. In this way, God willing I never had any problem in attaining the temperatutre nor the pull down period.
Please do recheck the compressor, condenser and the evaporators and of course the TEV and the pipe lines.
If I could be of any help, please do let me know.

Please check the product load. Maybe it is quite different from the previous one.
