πŸ₯Έ Learn about πŸ”₯ Superheat ❄️ through this video!

βœ… To determine the superheat at 155 psi for R410A, we need two things:

1. Saturation temperature of R410A at 155 psi.
2. Actual temperature of the refrigerant vapor (measured at the evaporator outlet or suction line).

Then: Superheat = Actual Temperature

Saturation Temperature
βœ… Step 1: Saturation Temperature of R410A at 155 psi

Using an R410A pressure-temperature chart:
At 155 psi,
the saturation temperature is ~5Β°C

❓ Step 2: Actual Vapor Temperature
You need to measure this with a temperature probe on the suction line.
For example, if the measured temperature is:

15Β°C, then
Superheat = 15Β°C – 5Β°C = 10Β°C

8Β°C, then
Superheat = 8Β°C – 5Β°C = 3Β°C

🎯 Summary:

Suction Pressure Saturation Temp (Β°C) Superheat Formula
155 psi ~5Β°C

Superheat = Measured Temp – 5Β°C
