Seal a small opening
around the pipings
with gum type sealant.
Air Purging
The air and moisture remaining in the
refrigerant system have undesirable effects as
indicated below.
1
Pressure in the system rises.
2
Operating current rises.
3
Cooling(or heating) efficiency drops.
4
Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may
freeze and block capillary tubing.
5
Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the
refrigeration system.
Therefore, after evacuating the system, take a
leak test for the piping and tubing between
the indoor and outdoor unit.
Air purging with vacuum pump
1
Preparation
- Check that each tube(both liquid and gas
side tubes) between the indoor and
outdoor units have been properly
connected and all wiring for the test run
has been completed. Remove the service
valve caps from both the gas and the
liquid side on the outdoor unit. Note that
both the liquid and the gas side service
valves on the outdoor unit are kept
closed at this stage.
2
Leak test
- Connect the manifold valve(with pressure
gauges) and dry nitrogen gas cylinder to
this service port with charge hoses.

OPMERKING
!
Be sure to use a manifold valve for air
purging. If it is not available, use a stop valve
for this purpose. The knob of the 3-way
valve must always be kept close.
- Pressurize the system to maximum
2
17.6 kg/cm
G (R22 model) or 28.1 kg/cm
(R410A model) with dry nitrogen gas and
close the cylinder valve when the gauge
reading reaches 17.6 kg/cm
2
or 28.1 kg/cm
G (R410A model). Next step
is leak test with liquid soap.
LET OP
!
To avoid nitrogen entering the refrigerant
system in a liquid state, the top of the cylinder
must be higher than its bottom when you
pressurize the system. Usually, the cylinder is
used in a vertical standing position.
WAARSCHUWING
!
There is a risk of fire and explosion.
Inert gas (nitrogen) should be used
when you check plumbing leaks, cleaning
or repairs of pipes etc. If you are using
combustible gases including oxygen,
product may have the risk of fires and
explosions.
- Do a leak test of all joints of the tubing(both
indoor and outdoor) and both gas and liquid
side service valves. Bubbles indicate a leak. Be
sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.
- After the system is found to be free of leaks,
relieve the nitrogen pressure by loosening
the charge hose connector at the nitrogen
cylinder. When the system pressure is
reduced to normal, disconnect the hose from
the cylinder.
