Key components:
1. Oil separator:
Separates oil from gas refrigerant pumped out of the compressor and quickly returns it to the compressor. Separation
efficiency is up to 99%.
2. Accumulator:
Stores liquid refrigerant and oil to protect compressor from liquid hammering.
3. Electronic expansion valve (EXV):
Controls refrigerant flow and reduces refrigerant pressure.
4. Four-way valve:
Controls refrigerant flow direction. Closed in cooling mode and open in heating mode. When closed, the heat
exchanger functions as a condenser; when open, the heat exchanger functions as an evaporator.
5. Plate heat exchanger:
In cooling mode, it can improve super-cooling degree and the super-cooled refrigerant can achieve better heat
exchange in indoor side. In heating mode, the refrigerant comes from the plate heat exchanger going to the
