Refrigerant piping works are
finished?
Yes
The indoor units / SV units /
outdoor unit are already
powered ON?
Yes
Use procedure:
"Method 2: after power ON"
It is very important that all refrigerant piping work is done before the units
(outdoor, SV unit or indoor) are powered on. When the units are powered on, the
expansion valves will initialise. This means that the valves will close.
NOTICE
Leak test and vacuum drying of field piping, SV units and indoor units is impossible
when field expansion valves are closed.
Method 1: Before power ON
If the system has not yet been powered on, no special action is required to
perform the leak test and the vacuum drying.
