MANUAL METHOD TO PURGE NON-
CONDENSABLE GAS DIRECTLY FROM
ABSORBER WITH VACUUM PUMP
When the chiller operates at a lower capacity than usual
for a long period of time or when it restarts after a pow-
er failure, the absorber may contain non-condensable
gases. If the machine starts under these conditions, its
performance and efficiency decrease. If this happens,
manually purge non-condensable gas directly from the
absorber according to the following procedure:
