Abstract
In the present work, an automatic R410A refrigerant charger for residential air conditioners is fabricated and tested. The charger operates on the throttling principle and uses the suction pressure of the compressor to estimate the refrigerant charge level. This helps to reduce the risk of compressor damage and ensures the correct composition ratio of R410A refrigerant when charged into the machine. The charging process is controlled by the LabVIEW platform, which provides adequate control and visualization of the charging process. The developed charger meets expectations in solving the technical problems encountered when charging R410A refrigerant for residential air conditioners. It is compact, portable and can be directly controlled through the LabVIEW interface, allowing real-time visualization of the charging process. The present work is expected to make a significant practical contribution, serving as a useful reference for the future manufacturing of compact portable equipment in the residential air conditioning field.
