More accurate reading for what is actually coming back from the system. That oil return line is dumping hot oil/small amount of discharge gas into the suction line. If there thermistor was there or down stream you would not pick up on flood back. Also with the thermistors in the position they are in; you have the safety net of the accumulator to save you in the event of flood back. I cannot believe the lack of space you have to work there. How is that allowed by code?!? Is there any access to the back of the units? These "N" gen units are a pain to work on all around; but I will take it over having to work on a Samsung.
It was shocking! 😂 no room behind the units either. Pulling the electrical cabinets would have been much easier if the piping capping wasn’t there. Any in-depth works on these units will be a nightmare.
Straight up , bullshit working area. I use to run service like you, after 20 years I got a cushey factory job. Jobs are split up by the trades. If I had to change out a compressor on one of them, this is how it's going to go down. 1. I recover 2. Cut back the refrigeration lines and remove all electrical. 3. Call the Millwrights and let me know when they got that shit swapped out. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
