6.3 Vacuum and Refrigerant Charge
NOTICE

Risk of improper refrigerant charge. Can cause equipment damage and reduced efficiency.

Check the refrigerant type to be used on the data plate of the air conditioner and on the

refrigerating compressor.

Topping up is requested for short pipeline, too, due to the extra-charge of refrigerant.
The air conditioner is supplied pressurized with helium at 1 bar.
