7)Check for leaks using nitrogen gas (10 bar) and soap bubbles.

8)Evacuate the system and charge it with refrigerant (see “1. [c] EVACUATION AND RECHARGE”).

9)Refit the panels in their correct positions.

10) Plug in the icemaker or connect the power source.

Note: Always use a drier of the correct capacity and refrigerant type.

5. HOT GAS VALVE

CAUTION

1.To ensure optimum performance, use a copper tube of the same diameter and length for replacement of the hot gas circuit.

2.Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is opened.

3.Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been made. Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the refrigerant flow.

4.When brazing, protect the drier by using a wet cloth to prevent the drier from overheating. Do not allow the drier to exceed 250°F (121°C).

1)Unplug the icemaker or disconnect the power source.

2)Remove the top panel, rear panel and side panel (R).

3)Recover the refrigerant and store it in a proper container, if required by an applicable law (see “1. [b] REFRIGERANT RECOVERY”).

4)Disconnect the hot gas valve leads.

5)Remove the screw and the solenoid coil.

6)Remove the valve and drier using brazing equipment.

7)Braze the new hot gas valve with nitrogen gas flowing at a pressure of 0.2 - 0.3 bar.
