Purging air and checking gas leakage
Purging air
1 Check the piping connections.
2 Connect the charging hose of low pressure side of manifold gauge to the
packed valve having a service port (5/8" Packed valve) as shown at the
figure (Value stem: 1/2" - 20UNF).
◆ Make the electrical connection and leave the system into "stand
by mode". Do not turn on the system! This is necessary for better
WARNING
vacuum operation (full OPEN position of Electronic Expansion
Valve - EEV -).
3 Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge
counter clockwise.
4 Purge the air from the system using vacuum pump for about 30 minutes.
- Close the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge clockwise.
- Make sure that pressure gauge show -0.1MPa(-76cmHg) after about
30 minutes. This procedure is very important in order to avoid gas leak.
- Turn off the vacuum pump.
- Remove the hose of the low pressure side of manifold gauge.
5 Set valve cork of both liquid side and gas side of packed valve to the
open position.
6 Mount the valve stem nuts and the service port cap to the valve,
and tighten them at the torque of 183 kgf•cm(18 N•m) with a torque
wrench.
7 Check for gas leakage.
- At this time, especially check for gas leakage from the 3-way valve's
stem nuts, and from the service port cap.
