Clearly spelled out in my dissertation on page 3, but I understand if most people chose not to read that. Hopefully a few will learn from it.
As explained there, with the compressor off, there is a direct correlation between temperature and pressure if there is a saturated vapor in the system (i.e., both liquid and vapor coexisting, as they should). And that pressure-temperature relationship is shown in that inner red ring on the pressure gauges.
Since the indicated pressure is well below that which would be predicted by that relationship, I suggested (
qualified by the fact that there seemed to be some doubt about measurements) that could be explained by a significant lack of refrigerant, meaning there is no liquid, only vapor.
... which comes to the same conclusion as AndrewWynn:
"50 seems waaay too low you are prob just low on gas."
