6.1  Preparations for start-up
6.4 Evacuation
  First evacuate the system  and then includethe compressor in the evacuation process.
  Relieve the compressor pressure.
  Open the suction and discharge line valves.
  Evacuate the suction and high pressure sides using the vacuum pump.
  At the end of the evacuation process, the vacuum should be < 1.5 mbar when the pump is switched off.
 Repeattheprocessasoftenasisrequired.
ATTENTION! Do not start the compressor if it is under vacuum. Do not apply any voltage 
  even for test purposes (may be operated only with refrigerant).
  Under vacuum, the spark-over and creepage current distances of the  
  terminal board connection bolts shorten; this can lead to winding and 
  terminal board damage.
INFO! Toprotectthecompressoragainstinadmissibleoperatingconditions, 
  high pressure and low pressure pressostats are mandatory on the  
  installation side.
The compressor has undergone trials in the factory and all functions have been tested. There are 
therefore no special running-in instructions.

6.2  Pressure strength test
DANGER!   Bursting!  The compressor must only be pressurised using nitrogen 
(N
2
). Never pressurise with oxygen or other gases!
   The maximum permissible overpressure of the compressor must not 
be exceeded at any time during the testing process (see name plate 
data)!  Do not mix any refrigerant with the nitrogen as this could 
cause the ignition limit to shift into the critical range.
The compressor has been factory-tested for pressure resistance. The following must be observed if

  Test the refrigeration circuit according to EN 378-2 or a corresponding safety standard.
6.3  Leaktest
DANGER!   Bursting! 
 Do not mix any refrigerant with the nitrogen (N
2
) as this could cause 
the ignition limit to shift into the critical range.
 Carry out the leak test of the refrigerating system in accordance with EN 378-2 or a corresponding  
  safety standard without including the compressor.
