Drier Joints; Evaporator Joints - GE GYE18JBL Technical Service Manual

Drier Joints

1. Cut the hot gas loop tubing as pictured below
(cut as close to the drier as possible).
2. Cut the drier (Part #: WR86X93) as pictured
below.
3. Clean the ends of the tubing being connected.
4. Using Lokring connectors WR97X10033 (for
inlet/hot gas loop tube) and WR97X10085 (for
capillary tube), connect the tubing to the drier.

Evaporator Joints

1. Remove the rubber wrap and mastic from the
joints.
2. Cut the evaporator tubing as pictured below
(cut the suction line as close to the aluminum
connection as possible). If the capillary joint
is not leaking, a cut can be made closer to the
aluminum on the capillary side. This allows
the evaporator to be reconnected using two
suction line connectors that are listed in step
5.
3. Remove the rubber wrap and mastic from
the joints of the new evaporator. Cut the
replacement evaporator as pictured below
(cut as the suction line as close to the bend
as possible).
4. Clean the ends of the tubing being connected.
5. Using Lokring connectors WR97X21881 (for
suction tube) and WR97X31409 (for capillary
tube), connect the tubing to the evaporator.
