Low Side And High Side Pressure Example - Suzuki Ignis Service Manual

7) When refrigerant container (1) is emptied, use the following
procedure to replace it with a new refrigerant container (1).
a) Close low pressure valve.
b) Replace empty container (1) with a refrigerant container
which has been charged with refrigerant. When using
refrigerant container tap valve (2), use the following proce-
dure for replacement.
i) Retract needle (3) and remove refrigerant container tap
valve (2) by loosening its plate nut (4).
ii) Install previously-removed refrigerant container tap valve
(2) to a new refrigerant container (1).
c) Purge any air existing in center charging hose
When using refrigerant container tap valve, use the follow-
ing procedure to purge air.
i) Once fully tighten refrigerant container tap valve (1), and
then loosen (open) plate nut (2) slightly.
ii) Open low pressure side valve (3) of manifold gauge set
(4) a little.
iii) As soon as refrigerant comes out with a "hiss" through a
clearance between refrigerant container and tap valve,
tighten plate nut (2) as well as low pressure side valve (3).
iv) Turn handle of tap valve (1) clockwise so that its needle is
screwed into the new container to make a hole for refriger-
ant flow.
8) After the system has been charged with specified amount
(330 – 390 g) of refrigerant or when low pressure gauge (1)
and high pressure gauge (2) have indicated the following
specified amount, close low pressure side valve (3) on mani-
fold gauge set (4). At this time, look into the sight glass (5) of
condenser outlet pipe (6) and check that there are no bub-
bles (7) in it, which means that the system is fully charged.
