cylinder, and set the 2-way and 3-way valves to
the open position.
Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate
the valve stems.
7). Mount the valve stems nuts and the service
port cap.
Be sure to use a torque wrench to tighten the
service port cap to a torque 18N·m.
Be sure to check the gas leakage.
6.5 Adding the refrigerant after running
the system for many years
Procedure
1). Connect the charge hose to the 3-way
service port, open the 2-way valve and the
3-way valve.
Connect the charge hose to the valve at the
bottom of the cylinder. If the refrigerant is
R410A, make the cylinder bottom up to ensure
liquid charge.
2). Purge the air from the charge hose.
Open the valve at the bottom of the cylinder
and press the check valve on the charge set to
purge the air (be careful of the liquid
refrigerant).
3) Put the charging cylinder onto the electronic
scale and record the weight.
4) Operate the air conditioner at the cooling
mode.
5) Open the valves (Low side) on the charge set
and charge the system with liquid refrigerant.
6).When the electronic scale displays the
proper weight (refer to the gauge and the
pressure of the low side), disconnect the charge
hose from the 3-way valve’s service port
immediately and turn off the air conditioner
before disconnecting the hose.
7). Mount the valve stem caps and the service
port
Use torque wrench to tighten the service port
cap to a torque of 18N.m.
Be sure to check for gas leakage.
6.6 Re-installation while the indoor unit
need to be repaired
1. Collecting the refrigerant into the outdoor
unit
Procedure
1). Confirm that both the 2-way and 3-way
valves are set to the opened position
Remove the valve stem caps and confirm that
the valve stems are in the opened position.
Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate
the valve stems.
2). Connect the charge hose with the push pin
of handle lo to the 3-way valves gas service
port.
3). Air purging of the charge hose.
Open the handle Lo valve of the manifold valve
slightly to purge air from the charge hose for 5
seconds and then close it quickly.
4). Set the 2-way valve to the close position.
5). Operate the air conditioner at the cooling
cycle and stop it when the gauge indicates
0.1Mpa(14.5Psi).
6). Set the 3-way valve to the closed position
immediately
Do this quickly so that the gauge ends up
indicating 0.3Mpa(43.5Psi) to 0.5 Mpa(72.5Psi).
Disconnect the charge set, and tighten the
2-way and 3-way valve’s stem nuts.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the 3-way valves
