▪ In case recharge is required, see the nameplate of the unit. It states the type of
refrigerant and necessary amount.
▪ The unit is factory charged with refrigerant and depending on pipe sizes and pipe
lengths some systems require additional charging of refrigerant.
▪ Only use tools exclusively for the refrigerant type used in the system, this to
ensure pressure resistance and prevent foreign materials from entering into the
system.
▪ Charge the liquid refrigerant as follows:
If
A siphon tube is present
(i.e., the cylinder is marked with "Liquid
filling siphon attached")
A siphon tube is NOT present
▪ Open refrigerant cylinders slowly.
▪ Charge the refrigerant in liquid form. Adding it in gas form may prevent normal
operation.
CAUTION
When the refrigerant charging procedure is done or when pausing, close the valve of
the refrigerant tank immediately. If the valve is NOT closed immediately, remaining
pressure might charge additional refrigerant. Possible consequence: Incorrect
refrigerant amount.
If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide of your
application for more information.
WARNING
The selection of the brine MUST be in accordance with the applicable legislation.
WARNING
Take sufficient precautions in case of brine leakage. If brine leaks, ventilate the area
immediately and contact your local dealer.
WARNING
The ambient temperature inside the unit can get much higher than that of the room,
e.g. 70°C. In case of a brine leak, hot parts inside the unit can create a hazardous
situation.

The use and installation of the application MUST comply with the safety and
environmental precautions specified in the applicable legislation.
