C403.3.3
Hot gas bypass
limitation. Cooling systems shall not use hot gas bypass or other
evaporator pressure control systems unless the system is designed with multiple
steps of unloading or continuous capacity modulation. The capacity of the hot
gas bypass shall be limited as indicated in Table C403.3.3, as limited by
Section C403.5.1.

Maximum Hot Gas Bypass Capacity
| Rated Capacity | Maximum Hot Gas BypassCapacity (% of totalcapacity) |
| [LESS THAN EQUAL TO] 240,000 Btu/h | 50 |
| [GREATER THAN] 240,000 Btu/h | 25 |
For SI: 1 British thermal unit per hour = 0.2931 W.
