3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container.
4) Remove the screw and the solenoid.
5) Disconnect the valve. If replacing the hot gas valve, also remove the strainer.
6) Place the new valve and strainer, if applicable, in position.
7) Remove the drier, then place the new drier in position.
8) Braze all fittings while purging with nitrogen gas flowing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
Always protect the valve body by using a damp cloth to prevent the valve from
overheating. Do not braze with the valve body exceeding 250°F (121°C).
9) Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG) and soap bubbles.
10) Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. For air-cooled and water-cooled
models, see the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. For remote air-cooled
models, see the rating label inside the icemaker.
