Abstract
A refrigeration system configured for controlling operation of a compressor is disclosed. The refrigeration system comprises an electronic expansion device operatively coupled with the compressor. The refrigeration system comprises a controller operatively coupled with the electronic expansion device. The controller is configured to control the electronic expansion valve based on a superheat setpoint range. The controller is further configured to adjust the superheat setpoint range in response to an operating point of the compressor being within a threshold distance from a boundary of an operational envelope for the compressor.
