ALTERNATE CHARGING METHODSIf you are starting a unit when the ambient temperature is higher or lower than those shown in Figures 7 through 15, either of the following methods may be used.
Method 1: Determine the total weight of the refrigerant for the total system by adding the required charge for the outdoor unit, the indoor unit and the refrig- erant lines using information in Tables 2 (Physi- cal Data) and 6 (Refrigerant Line Charge).
Using the charging procedures outlined above, weigh the required amount of refrigerant charge into the unit.
Method 2: Install a field supplied moisture indicating sight glass in the liquid line between the
Using the charging procedure outlined above, charge refrigerant until the moisture indicating sight glass is clear. Add approximately 2 extra pounds of refrigerant to assure a liquid refrigerant seal at the expansion valve under all operating conditions. Block the flow of the condenser air, if necessary, to assure a head pressure of 280 psig during the charging procedure.
Note: The installer should return to the job to verify the operat- ing charge when the ambient temperature is within the conditions shown in Figures 7 through 15.
