Abstract
There is disclosed a control system for controlling a refrigerating apparatus in which a control unit is arranged to calculate a super heat amount of a discharge gas of a compressor at the time immediately before starting operation of the compressor, on the basis of a difference between temperatures detected by a discharge gas temperature sensor and a condenser temperature sensor and to control an opening degree of an electronic expansion valve to a completely open state. After starting operation of the compressor, the control unit constantly measures the super heat amount of the discharge gas and controls the valve opening degree to the usual degree when the super heat amount becomes higher than the preset value.
