Change of compressor discharge extension
1. Check possible tubing leakage with a leakage detector and observe possible presence of oily residues in the tubing
or collector tray.
2. Check the refrigeration system has no pressure.
3. Once the leakage has been detected and if tubing replacement is required, separate tubing with weld equipment.
4. Check the compressor and the condenser are not affected by the entrance of humidity in the system. If it is
necessary, replace both elements.
5. Clean the refrigeration system and eliminate dirt and humidity completely.
6. Install the new tubing extension, clean the joints and apply good quality welding that flows easily; don't re – heat
tubing.
7. Replace dehydrator and check there are no leakages in the welding performed and in the rest of the system.
8. Apply efficient vacuum with the corresponding equipment. This is very important for a good system operation.
9. Load the system with the amounts recommended in the equipment data labels.
10. Check the adequate operation of the repaired equipment.
