Evacuating the connected pipes
1.Connect each assembly pipe to the appropriate valve on the outdoor unit and tighten the flare nut.
2.Tighten the flare nut first with your hands, and then with a torque wrench, applying the following torque.
• Excessive torque can be cause of gas leakage.
• Make the electrical connection and leave the system into“stand by mode”. Do not turn on the system!
This is necessary for better vacuum operation (full OPEN position of Electronic Expansion Valve - EEV
3.Connect the charging hose of the
4.Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge counterclockwise.
5.Evacuate the air in the connected pipes using the vacuum pump for about 15 minutes.
Make sure that pressure gauge shows
This procedure is very important to avoid a gas leak.
Close the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge clockwise.
Turn off the vacuum pump.
Check for 2 minutes if there is any pressure change.
Remove the hose of the low pressure side of manifold gauge.
6.Set a valve cork of liquid and gas service port to the open position.
