14)Remove the drier, then place the new drier in position.
15)Braze all fittings while purging with nitrogen gas flowing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
16)Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). DO NOT use
17)Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. See the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge.
18)Install the auger assembly with the upper part of the mechanical seal attached and tighten down the allen head cap screws.
