"It means the suction pressure going too high and the vapor getting too dense for the compressor design." Thanks for answer.
How would I know if it's getting close to this? Monitor compressor current?

Am going to have a TMV set @ 90*F Max. for source water from solar tank to evaporator.

Solar tank minimum may go down to 35*F, so 35* -> 90* for source.

I think that I can figure out a way to have boiler run temperature up to 140*F every few days.

Just check if the compressor current is starting to go over the rated full load current.
