Refrigeration System Safety Warnings NOTE Instructions given here are furnished as a guide. P e r s o n s a t t e m p t i n g t o u s e t h e s e instructions to make repairs to the sealed refrigeration system should have a working knowledge of refrigeration and previous training on sealed system repair, and an EPA certifica tion for servicing refrigeration systems. IMPORTANT Effective July 1, 1992, the United States clean air act governs the disposal of refrigerants such as R-134a.
Refrigeration System Perimeter Hot Tube WARNING To reduce the possibility of condensation forming on the exterior of the cabinet in high humidity areas, a perimeter hot tube (refrigerant tube) has been installed in the unit. The perimeter tube extends up the left side,across the top of the freezer and down the right side into the filter drier. When the compressor operates, warm refrigerant flows through the primary condenser, then into the primary hot tube, warming the cabinet front exterior.
Refrigeration System Low/High Side Leak or Undercharge Testing for Refrigerant Leaks A loss of refrigerant can result in any of the following: 1. Excessive or continuous compressor operation. 2. Above normal freezer compartment temperature. 3. A partially frosted evaporator (depending on amount of refrigerant loss). 4. Below normal freezer compartment temperature. 5. Low suction pressure (vacuum). 6. Low wattage. The condenser will be “warm to cool”, depending on the amount of refrigerant lost.
Refrigeration System To Flush The System To Use Refrigerant To Flush The System: CAUTION CAUTION Use extreme care when using Dry Nitrogen to flush systems. Pressure in nitrogen cylinder could be as high as 2000 psi. Nitrogen cylinder must be equipped with approved pressure regulator and pressure relief valve. Ensure that your hoses have adequate ratings for pressure involved and that all of your equipment is in good condition.
Refrigeration System Installing a New Compressor NOTE NOTE The following instructions are generalized to help the technician understand the procedures of sealed system repairs. See Section 5 Component Teardown on the exact steps of accessing the components of the refrigeration system. Entirely new compressors have been developed or use with R-134a and Ester oil refrigeration systems. Both compressor and electric motor have been modified.
Refrigeration System Condenser Replacement 10. Reform both suction and discharge lines to align with new compressor. If they are too short, use additional lengths of tubing. Joints should overlap 0.5” to provide sufficient area for good solder joint. Clean and mark area where tubing should be cut. Cut tubing with tubing cutter. Work as quickly as possible to avoid letting moisture and air into system. 11. Solder all connections according to soldering procedure. 12. Remove original filter-drier.
Refrigeration System Filter-Drier Installation Evaporator and Suction Line Replacement Any time the sealed system is opened and the refrigerant charge is removed, the liquid line filterdrier must be replaced and the system thoroughly evacuated before NOTE The following instructions are generalized to help the technician understand the procedures of sealed system repairs. See Section 5 Component Teardown on the exact steps of accessing the components of the refrigeration system.
Refrigeration System Equipment Needed for Evacuation & Recharging: CAUTION Check the serial plate for the correct refrigerant type. It is extremely important to verify the type of refrigerant in the system before starting any sealed system repairs. • Heated charging cylinder • With the possible exception of the vacuum pump, all service equipment that comes in contact with R-134a during evacuation and recharging must be dedicated.
Refrigeration System WARNING R-134A SYSTEMS ARE PARTICULARLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO MOISTURE CONTAMINA TION WHICH CAN ONLY BE PREVENTED BY EVACUATING THE SYSTEM FOR A MINIMUM OF 30 MINUTES TO ATTAIN A MINIMUM 29.9 INCH (500 MICRON OR LOWER) VACUUM. 7. Leak test low-side. Close compound gauge. Run compressor for a few minutes and leak test high-side. When leak is found, recapture refrigerant using EPA approved recovery system Repair and go back to step 1.
Refrigeration System 10. Slowly open the high-side manifold gauge valve to allow the compressor to remove any refrigerant trapped in the high-side hose and the process fitting. 11. Close both of the manifold gauge valves. If the high-side gauge reading rises, the pinch-off must be corrected before proceeding. 12. Remove the high-side process tube adapter and solder the process tube closed. 13. Clamp the low-side process tube with the pinch-off tool while the unit is running.
Refrigeration System NOTE Instructions given here are furnished as a guide. Persons attempting to use these instructions to make repairs to the sealed refrigeration system should have a working knowledge of refrigeration and previous training on sealed system repair. Verify Refrigerant Type In The System CAUTION R-134a and R-12 are completely incompatible. Before starting any sealed system repair, it is extremely important to check serial plate of product to verify the type of refrigerant in the system.
Refrigeration System For example, hoses that were used for a refrigeration system operating on R-12 may contain small quantities of mineral oil which can block the capillary tube in a system operating on R-134a. As little as one milligram may be sufficient to cause a blockage. In addition, sealed system components that have been used with CFC systems must not be used with R-134a systems. These components may contain residual amounts of refrigerant and oil which could damage an R-134a system.
Refrigeration System Vacuum Pump Maintenance Refrigerant Leaks It is absolutely essential to maintain your vacuum pump according to the manufacturer’s instructions including required oil changes at the recommended intervals. Vacuum pump oil should always be changed after evacuating a contaminated system. Vacuum pump performance should be checked periodically with a micron gauge. A system with R-134a and Ester oil will become saturated with moisture much faster than a system with R-12 and mineral oil.
Refrigeration System Leak Detection R-134a system leaks can be pinpointed by means of an electronic leak detector or by bubble solution. Electronic leak detectors for R-134a service are currently available from several manufacturers. The least expensive models are non-selective detectors that will detect any type of emission or vapor present, regardless of its chemical composition. Some non-selective detectors designed for use with R-12 may have a much lower sensitivity when used with R-134a.

Refrigeration System Inhalation Toxicity Spills or Leaks HFC-134a poses no acute or chronic hazard when it is handled in accordance with DuPont recommendations and when exposures are maintained at or below the DuPont Acceptable Exposure Limit (AEL) of 1,000 ppm (8 and 12 hour Time-Weighted Average or TWA). If a large release of vapor occurs, such as from a large spill or leak, the vapors may concentrate near the floor or low spots and displace the oxygen available for breathing, causing suffocation.
Refrigeration System Combustibility of HFC-134a Filling and Charging Operations HFC-134a is nonflammable at ambient temperatures and atmospheric pressure. However, tests have shown HFC-134a to be combustible at pressures as low as 5.5 psig (139.3 kPa absolute) at 177°C (350°F) when mixed with air at concentrations generally greater than 60% volume air. At lower temperatures, higher pressures are required for combustibility.

Ice Maker Section 6 Ice Maker 6-1
Ice Maker Rear Mounted Ice Maker The Ice Maker is designed to produce ice automatically. The length of time between harvest cycles will vary, depending on load conditions, door openings, ambient temperature and freezer temperature and water temperature. These factors must be taken into consideration when checking the ice production rate. With a temperature of -2°F to +5°F in the freezer, the rate of harvest will be 40 to 96 cubes per 24 hour period.
Ice Maker Ice Maker Components Water Valve Assembly Front Cover The water valve is solenoid operated and when energized, releases water from the household supply into the ice mold. The amount of water released is directly proportional to the length of time the water valve switch is energized. A flow washer, inside the water valve, maintains a constant rate of water flow over a supply line with pressure ranging from 20 to 100 psig.
Ice Maker Timing Switches The three timing switches used are single- pole, double throw (SPDT). They are identical except for function, and can be used interchangeably. 1. Hold Switch - assures completion of a revolution once the ice maker operation has started. 2. Water Fill Switch - opens the water valve during the fill cycle. It is the only adjustable component in the ice maker. 3. Shut-off Switch - stops ice maker operation when the storage container is full of Ice.
Ice Maker Installing Water Supply Line to Ice Maker Test Cycling Ice Maker Supply line installation must comply with all applicable plumbing codes. The ¼” tubing, and any other plumbing materials required, should be obtained locally. Operation of the ice Maker, water refilling, and controlled ice storage, require proper functioning and timing of all components.

Troubleshooting Section 8 Troubleshooting 8-1
Troubleshooting Problem Freezer compressor does not run. Cause Correction Freezer is plugged into a circuit that has a ground fault interrupt. Use another circuit. Check circuit for proper voltage. Temperature control is in the "OFF" position. Set control to a temperature setting. Instruct customer. Freezer may not be plugged in, or plug may be loose. Ensure plug is tightly pushed into outlet. House fuse blown or tripped circuit breaker. Check/replace fuse with a 15 amp time delay fuse.
Troubleshooting Problem Cause Louder sound levels whenever Freezer is on. Modern Freezers have increased storage capacity and more stable temperatures. They require heavy duty compressors. This is normal. When the surrounding noise level is low, you might hear the compressor running while it cools the interior. Louder sound levels when compressor comes on. Freezer operates at higher pressures during the start of the ON cycle. This is normal.
