Variable Fan Speed Control Leak Check and Evacuation Procedure

Proper leak check and evacuation can be accomplished only with all system solenoid valves open and check valves accounted for.

NOTE

Systems with a scroll or digital scroll compressor include a factory-installed check valve and an additional downstream Schrader valve with core in the compressor discharge line. Proper evacuation of the condenser side of the compressor can be accomplished only using the downstream Schrader valve. See piping schematic (Figures 15 and 16).

1.If unit power is available, open the unit liquid line solenoid valves using the evacuation function in the diagnostic section of the Liebert iCOM control (refer to the Liebert iCOM user manual, SL-18835). If unit power is not available, a field-supplied 24VAC / 75VA power source must be directly connected to each of the unit solenoid valves.

2.For scroll and digital scroll compressors, connect refrigerant gauges to the suction rotalock valves and discharge line Schrader valves (see Note above) on the compressor.

3.Open the service valves and place a 150 PSIG (1034 kPa) of dry nitrogen with a tracer of refrigerant. Check system for leaks with a suitable leak detector.

4.After completion of leak testing, release the test pressure (per local code) and pull an initial deep vacuum on the system with a suitable pump.

5.After four hours, check the pressure readings and, if they have not changed, break vacuum with dry nitrogen. Pull a second and third vacuum to 250 microns or less. Recheck the pressure after two hours. After completing this step, proceed to Variable Fan Speed Charging on page 28.
