  • the separator 19 may be arranged at any level in relation to the batteries because the pressure needed to fill the evaporators with liquid refrigerant is supplied by feed pump 30 and not by the static pressure of the liquid in the separator.
  • each rotary slide valve leads only to six lines of which lines 33, 43 and 46 lead directly to respective ones of the main lines while manifolds 39 and 44 lead to the evaporators and manifold 42 leads to the fourth main line.
