• The Vapor Line must always

be insulated (Fig. 21).

• DO NOT allow the liquid line and

vapor line to come in direct (metal

to metal) contact to each other.

Test for leak

• Pressurize the refrigerant lines and

evaporator coil to 350-400 PSIG using dry

nitrogen (Fig. 19). The nitrogen pressure

must be maintained for few minutes.

• If pressure decay is observed,

it is an indication of leak(s).

7. EVACUATION

7.1 EVACUATE THE REFRIGERANT LINES AND INDOOR COIL

• Connect the vacuum pump to evacuate

the refrigerant line set and indoor coil.

• Evacuate until the micron gauge

reads no higher than 350 microns

or less (Fig. 22), then close OFF the

valve to the vacuum pump.

• Observe the micron gauge. Evacuation

is complete if the micron gauge

does not rise above 500 microns in

one minute and no more the 1000

microns in 10 minutes (Fig. 23).

• When vacuum pressure rises more

then 1000 microns but holds steady

below 2000 microns it indicates the

presence of moisture and/or non-

condensible or presence of small

leak. If vacuum pressure stays

constantly at 2000 microns or it rises,

it indicates the presence of leak.

• If the leak is found, perform the

necessary repair and repeat

the evacuation process.

• Once evacuation is complete, close the

valves on the manifold gauge set, turn

o and disconnect the vacuum pump.

WARNING

!!

DO NOT OPEN THE SERVICE VALVES UNTIL THE REFRIGERANT LINES AND INDOOR

COIL LEAK CHECK AND EVACUATION ARE COMPLETE. REFRIGERANT CAN LEAK AND

11. SYSTEM CHARGE ADJUSTMENT

REFRIGERANT CHARGING MUST ONLY BE ATTEMPTED BY QUALIFIED CONTRACTORS. IMPROP-

ER SYSTEM CHARGE CAN REDUCE SYSTEM CAPACITY AND MAY CAUSE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

WARNING !!

DO NOT LEAVE THE SYSTEM OPEN TO THE ATMOSPHERE. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUMP “TOTAL

SYSTEM CHARGE” INTO OUTDOOR UNIT FOR MAINTENANCE, SERVICE, ETC. THIS MAY CAUSE

DAMAGE TO THE COMPRESSOR AND/OR OTHER COMPONENTS. THE OUTDOOR UNIT ONLY HAS

ENOUGH VOLUME FOR THE “FACTORY CHARGE”, NOT FOR THE “TOTAL SYSTEM CHARGE”. IT IS

UNLAWFUL TO KNOWINGLY VENT, RELEASE OR DISCHARGE REFRIGERANT INTO THE OPEN AIR

DURING REPAIR, SERVICE, MAINTENANCE, OR THE FINAL DISPOSAL OF THIS UNIT.

WARNING !!

All air conditioning units come pre-charged with enough refrigerant (R-410A ) for an appropriately matched

indoor evaporator coil. For eld installed line set, a correction of 0.6 Oz of R-410A per foot of line set is

required for 3/4” suction line diameter and 0.7 Oz of R-410A per foot of line set is required for 7/8” suction line

diameter. Liquid line shall be 3/8” diameter. Using evaporator coils that have not been approved as a match by

the manufacturer is not recommended. Refer to AHRI directory for matched evaporator coil for your system.

The system charge shall be adjusted according to section 11.2 or 11.3 depending on the application.

To obtain an ecient system matching AHRI performance, units with either thermostatic expansion

valves or piston ow raters must be installed in the vertical direction with the liquid refrigerant owing

downwards or upwards, feeding the indoor evaporator coil. The capillary tubes and expansion valve

location can be adjusted to ensure that the ow through both of the slabs of the A-Coil have equal ow

of refrigerant. If the temperature dierence does not vary more than 10°F between the two slabs of

A-coil, it indicates the equal ow of refrigerant through the each of the slabs.

NOTE

11.1 SYSTEM TOTAL CHARGE

11.2 ADJUSTING SYSTEM CHARGE FOR SYSTEMS USING THERMOSTATIC

EXPANSION VALVES

Procedure:

1. Connect charging hose from liquid port on the

refrigerant bottle to charging service port on

manifold gauge.

2. Open refrigerant bottle and purge hose.

3. Connect low side of manifold gauge set to the

pressure port on vapor line service valve.

4. Connect the high side of the manifold gauge set

to pressure port on liquid line service valve.

5. Temporarily install a temperature measuring device on the liquid line near the liquid service valve and

one at the vapor line near the vapor service valve. Ensure that the temperature measuring device makes

adequate contact and insulated for accurate readings.

6. Operate the system for at least 10 minutes.

7. Check subcooling and superheat. Systems using thermostatic expansion valves should have a

subcooling of 7°F to 9°F and superheat of 7°F to 9°F.

8. Record Total Charge on the nameplate and manual.
