FDTN-H MAINTENANCE DATA 6.6.1 Servicing (1) Evacuation The evacuation is a procedure to purge impurities, such as noncondensable gas, air, moisture from the refrigerant equipment by using a vacuum pump. Since the refrigerant R22 is very insoluble in water, even a small amount of moisture left in the refriger- ant equipment will freeze, causing what is called ice clogging.
FDTN-H (2) Refrigerant charging After the evacuation shown in the above, change the connection of the charge hose A to the refrigerant cylinder. Purge air from the charge hose A . First loosen the connecting portion of the charge hose at the gauge manifold side and open valve 3 for a few seconds, and then immediately retighten it after observing that gas has blown out from loosened connecting portion.
FDTN-H 6.6.3 Diagnosing of microcomputer circuit (1) Before starting diagnosis (a) Required tools and measurement equipment For unit disassembling Small and large Philips screw driver, Flat head screw driver, Wrench For diagnosis Tester (A general tester will do) (Diagnosis tools and equipment for refrigeration circuit should be prepared if necessary.) (2) Selfdiagnosis function (a) Indoor unit side Only case of wireless remote control model.
