My danfoss bd50f refrigerator compressor would only cool 2 degrees Celsius below room temperature before I added 134a refrigerant two days ago. Now it will cool to about 5.5 degrees Celsius, I set it to 4 degrees but it doesn't seem able to go that low, so I adjusted target temperature to 5.5.
What is the correct Psi?
Mine seem to be around 7-8 psi with compressor running, but it was 25 psi this morning with compressor at idle. Right now the compressor is running and the psi has gone down to 14 psi. Is it normal for idle Psi to be higher? Why has the psi increased without adding more gas?
The 134a is still connected but the valve is closed at the low-pressure gauge.
I bought the boat 7 weeks ago and yesterday was the first day with working refrigerator
