SERVICE

NOTE

To avoid damage to the earth’s ozone layer, use a refrigerant recovery system whenever removing refrigerant. When working with refrigerants you must comply with all local government environmental laws. In the U.S.A., refer to EPA section 608.

WARNING

Never use air for leak testing. It has been de- termined that pressurized, mixtures of re- frigerant and air can undergo combustion when exposed to an ignition source.

6.1 SECTION LAYOUT

Service procedures are provided herein beginning with refrigeration system service, then refrigeration system component service, electrical system service, temperature recorder service and general service. Refer to the Table Of Contents to locate specific topics.

6.2 SERVICE VALVES

The compressor suction, compressor discharge, compressor economizer, oil return and the liquid line service valves (see Figure 6-1) are provided with a double seat and an access valve which enable servicing of the compressor and refrigerant lines. Turning the valve stem clockwise (all the way forward) will frontseat the valve to close off the line connection and open a path to the access valve. Turning the stem counterclockwise (all the way out) will backseat the valve to open the line connection and close off the path to the access valve.

With the valve stem midway between frontseat and backseat, both of the service valve connections are open to the access valve path.

For example, the valve stem is first fully backseated when connecting a manifold gauge to measure pressure. Then, the valve is opened 1/4 to 1/2 turn to measure the pressure.

The manifold gauge set (see Figure 6-3) is used to determine system operating pressure, add refrigerant charge, and to equalize or evacuate the system.

When the suction pressure hand valve is frontseated (turned all the way in), the suction (low) pressure can be checked. When the discharge pressure hand valve is frontseated, the discharge (high) pressure can be checked. When both valves are open (turned counter-clockwise all the way out), high pressure vapor will flow into the low side. When the suction pressure valve is open and the discharge pressure valve shut, the
