Single-Circuit Condensing Unit: Evaporator Coil with Two Distributors

Figure 47.

Single-circuit evaporator coil with two 
distributors

1.

Pitch the liquid line slightly—1 inch/10 feet 
[1 cm/3 m]—so the refrigerant drains toward 
the evaporator.

2. Provide one expansion valve per distributor.

3. Slightly pitch the outlet line from the suction 

header toward the suction riser—that is, 1 inch/
10 feet [1 cm/3 m] in the direction of flow. Use 
the tube diameter that matches the suction-
header connection.

4. Arrange the suction line so the refrigerant gas 

leaving the coil flows downward, past the 
lowest suction-header outlet, before turning 
upward. Use a double-elbow configuration to 
isolate the thermal expansion valve bulb from 
other suction headers.

5. For horizontal tubing, use the tube diameter 

recommended by the condensing unit 
manufacturer.

6. For the vertical riser, use the tube diameter 

recommended by the condensing unit 
manufacturer. Assure the top of the riser is 
higher than the evaporator coil.

7.

Pitch the suction line slightly—1 inch/10 feet 
[1 cm/3 m]—so the refrigerant drains toward 
the evaporator.

8. Insulate the suction line.

9. Only use a “trim” solenoid valve for constant-

volume, humidity-sensitive applications. For all 
other applications, install a single solenoid 
valve (the “pumpdown” solenoid valve) 
between the liquid-line filter drier and the sight 
glass.
