If a system is overcharged, the discharge pressure will read higher than itshould. If the system is undercharged, the discharge pressure will read lowerthan it should. The compressor suction pressure is 62 psig and the dischargepressure indicates 290 psig when the outside temperature is 85°F. Should therefrigerant be added to the system or taken out?
