4. Startup Control
This control is used to equalize the pressure in the front and back of the compressor prior to the
startup of the compressor, thus reducing startup loads. Furthermore, the inverter is turned ON
to charge the capacitor.
To avoid stresses to the compressor due to oil return or else after the startup, the following
control is made and the position of the four way valve is also determined.
Pc : High pressure sensor detection value
Pe : Low pressure sensor detection value
Ta : Outdoor air temperature
Te : Low pressure equivalent saturation temperature
Td : Discharge temperature
