for one minute, the system is ready to be charged or refrigerant in another portion of the system can be opened to the coil. A steady rise in microns would indicate that moisture is still present and that the coil should be further vacuumed until the moisture has been removed.
Note
Failure to obtain a high vacuum indicates a great deal of moisture or a small leak. Break the vacuum with a charge of dry nitrogen or other suitable gas and recheck for leaks. If no leaks are found, continue vacuuming the coil until the desired vacuum is reached.
Installation of Chilled Water Coil Piping (optional)
Important
Guidelines for the installation of the cooling coil have been provided to insure proper performance of the coils and their longevity. These are general guidelines that may have to be tailored to meet the specific requirements of any one job. As always, a qualified party or individual should perform the installation and maintenance of the coil. Protective equipment such as safety glasses, steel toe boots and gloves are recommended during the installation and maintenance of the coil.
8. Install the Drain Line
Connect an unobstructed drain line to the drain pan. A trap should be used to prevent
sewer gas from being Drain Trap drawn into the unit.

When installing couplings, do not apply undue stress to the connection. Use a backup pipe wrench to avoid breaking the weld between the coil connection and the header.
All field piping must be
Important
All traps must be installed below the roof line or be otherwise protected from freezing.
1. Verify Coil Hand Designation
Check the coil hand
designation to ensure that it matches the system.
Coils are generally plumbed with the supply connection located on
the bottom of the leaving
return connection at the top of the entering
2. Check the Coil for Leaks
Pressurize the coil to 100 psig with dry nitrogen or other suitable gas. The coil should be left pressurized for a minimum of 10 minutes. If the coil holds the pressure, the
If the pressure drops by 5 psig or less,
