A: The compressor produces high-temperature, high-pressure compressed gas so that the refrigerant gas can be easily cooled and liquefied in the condenser.
B: The condenser cools and condenses the high-temperature, high-pressure gas produced in the compressor, to transform it to high-temperature, high-pressure liquid.
C: The pressure reducing mechanism throttles the high-temperature, high-pressure liquid to reduce pressure, and transform it to low-temperature,
low-pressure liquid/gas mixture so that it can be easily evaporated in the evaporator.
D: The evaporator evaporates the low-temperature, low-pressure liquid/gas mixture produced in the pressure reducing mechanism by absorbing
heat from the oil (by cooling the oil), and transforms it to low-temperature, low-pressure gas.
Note)1. The system components other than the AKZJ series Oil Cooling Unit
should be provided by user (main machine).
