Hi All,

This one id probably for those with some Frigie background.

Connected another Micromite to the 5 thermistors in the heat pump I'm modifying this morning.

These are the values I'm reading.

[Code]
Beta SteinHart
Air Temperature = 6.8 7.1
Evaporator Temp = -1.0 -1.1
Compressor Temp = 60.2 58.0
HE Input Temp = 19.4 20.0
HE Output Temp = 23.4 24.0
Temperature Rise = 4.0 3.9
[/code]

Just wondering what sort of temperatures I should be watching out for with regards to the compressor & evaporator.

Evaporator is currently below zero, and it's showing signs of icing up.

Temperature rise is probably usable as an indication of presence of water flow.

Any feed back & suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Phil
