Refrigerant Charging - Packaged Air Condition-
ers are fully charged with R410-A refrigerant at
the factory. The system refrigerant charge can be
checked and adjusted by removing the compres-
sor cover panel and attaching gauge lines which
have a "schrader" depression device present
to activate the valve. Draw a vacuum on gauge
lines to remove air before attaching them to the
service ports on the unit. Refrigerant charging
must be done by qualifi ed personnel familiar with
safe and environmentally responsible refrigerant
handling procedures.
