Abstract
A flow-through surge receiver for a refrigeration system having compressor, condenser and evaporator means, in which a surge-type receiver forms a reservoir for liquid refrigerant and has a flow-through conduit receiving refrigerant from the condenser means and an outlet for passing such refrigerant directly to the evaporator means in by-pass relation with the receiver reservoir, and a passageway for establishing fluid communication between said conduit and reservoir below the normal liquid refrigerant level in the reservoir.
