Definitions:

Air Conditioning System

A mechanism designed for controlling the temperature, humidity, and overall air quality in an enclosed space.

Expansion Valve

Restricts the flow of the refrigerant in an A/C circuit, which lowers its pressure as it exits the valve.

High-Pressure

Refers to a condition or system operating at a pressure significantly above atmospheric pressure, often used in hydraulic and pneumatic applications.

Low-Pressure

Refers to a condition or an area where the pressure is lower than the surrounding atmosphere or in comparison to a specified reference.
