Abstract
A refrigeration system, including: a compressor, a condenser, an economizer, a throttle valve, and an evaporator which are connected via a pipeline; and a pneumatic valve that includes a valve body and a drive gas phase refrigerant chamber, an gas phase refrigerant outlet of the economizer being connected to an interstage gas phase refrigerant inlet of the compressor via the valve body, and the drive gas phase refrigerant chamber being connected to a low pressure portion of the refrigeration system via a first gas phase refrigerant path, the lower pressure portion having a pressure lower than that in the economizer; wherein a first valve for controlling on/off of the first gas phase refrigerant path is disposed on the first gas phase refrigerant path. The refrigeration system can avoid liquid phase refrigerant accumulated in the economizer from entering the compressor during start to cause a liquid impact problem.
