Note:
The air in the indoor unit and in the piping must be purged. If air remains in the refrigeration piping, it
will affect the compressor, reduce the cooling capacity, and could lead to a malfunction of unit.
Be sure, using a torque wrench to tighten the service port cap (after using the service port), so that it
prevents the gas leakage from the refrigeration cycle.
Procedure
1. Recheck the piping connections.
2. Open the valve stem of the 2-way valve
counterclockwise approximately 90', wait 10
seconds, and then set it to closed position.
Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate
the valve stem.
3. Check for gas leakage.
Check the flare connection for gas leakage
4. Purge the air from the system.
Set the 2-way valve to the open position and
remove the cap from the 3-way valve's service
port.
Using the hexagonal wrench to press the valve
core pin, discharge for three seconds and then
wait for one minute.
5. Use torque wrench to tighten the service
port cap to a torque of 1.8 kgf.m. (18n.m)
6. Set the 3-way valve to the opened
position.
7. Mounted the valve stem nuts to the
2-way and 3-way valves.
8. Check for gas leakage.
At this time, especially check for gas
leakage from the 2-way and 3-way stem nuts,
and from the service port.
Caution:
If gas leakage is discovered in step (3) above,
take the following measures.
If the leaks stop when the piping connections
are tightened further, continue working from
step (4).
If the gas leaks do not stop when the
connections are retightened, repair the
location of the leak, discharge all of the gas
through the service port, and then recharge
with the specified amount of gas from a gas
cylinder.
