Serving Refrigerant Circuit
• Under certain conditions, the dryer cartridge should no longer be replaced each time the refrigerant circuit is opened.
CAUTION!
There is a danger of ice-up.
Refrigerant leaks out if refrigerant circuit is not discharged.
Refrigerant must be extracted before opening refrigerant circuit. If refrigerant circuit is not opened within 10 minutes of extraction, pressure may form in refrigerant circuit due to evaporation. Extract refrigerant once more.
• The refrigerant circuit should be flushed with refrigerant R134a if:
• In the event of dirt or other contamination in the refrigerant circuit.
• If vacuum reading is not maintained on evacuating a leak-free refrigerant circuit (pressure build-up due to moisture in refrigerant circuit).
• If refrigerant circuit has been left open for longer than normal (following an accident).
• If pressure and temperature measurements in the refrigerant circuit indicate the likelihood of moisture
• If it is not clear how much refrigerant oil is in the refrigerant circuit.
• The A/C compressor had to be replaced due to internal damage (noise or no output).
