Safety During Installation; Intended Use; Flushing The Refrigeration System - Dometic Frigo DC Service Manual

Flushing the refrigeration system

• Only use the transport refrigeration system for the purpose specified by the
manufacturer and do not make any alterations or structural changes to the
device.
• Danger of injury from leaking fluids if the transport refrigeration system is
damaged. Leaking fluids on the floor can cause persons to slip and injure
themselves. Wipe up any leaked or dripped fluids immediately or absorb
them with a suitable binding agent and dispose of them in an environmen-
tally responsible manner.
• Only for standby-cooling (optional): Pay attention that you do not
come into contact with any live parts. Only use the power cable supplied
for connecting to the external power supply to avoid the risk of injury from
using faulty cables. When in stationary mode, the transport refrigeration
system works with voltages of 230 V at corresponding currents.

pro-tective gloves) for all work done on the transport refrigeration system.

3 Flushing the refrigeration system
Flushing a Dometic Frigo DC system is absolutely necessary if mechanical com-
pressor damage has occurred.
Flushing may also be necessary to completely remove refrigerant oil remaining
in the system. During the flushing process, all refrigerant oil residues and impu-
rities are removed from the refrigerant circuit.
