Charging additional refrigerant
Before charging additional refrigerant, make sure the outdoor unit's external
refrigerant piping is checked (leak test, vacuum drying).
INFORMATION
Depending on the units and/or the installation conditions, it might be necessary to
connect electrical wiring before you can charge refrigerant.
Typical workflow – Charging additional refrigerant typically consists of the following
stages:
1 Determining if and how much you have to charge additionally.
2 If necessary, charging additional refrigerant.
3 Filling in the fluorinated greenhouse gases label, and fixing it to the inside of
the outdoor unit.
Completely recharging refrigerant
Before completely recharging refrigerant, make sure the following is done:
1 All refrigerant is recovered from the system.
2 The outdoor unit's external refrigerant piping is checked (leak test, vacuum
drying).
3 Vacuum drying on the outdoor unit's internal refrigerant piping is performed.
NOTICE
Before completely recharging, perform vacuum drying on the outdoor unit's internal
refrigerant piping as well.
Typical workflow – Completely recharging refrigerant typically consists of the
