CHECK AND TEST 1

Step 1

Discharge refrigerant: cut off charging tube with pliers. 

Step 2

Discharge all refrigerant toward the exhaust vent. 

Step 3

Melt brazing material with flame and pull out processing tube using a pair of pliers. 

Step 4

Re-braze a copper tube onto processing tube for compressor.

To get more details on brazing requirements, please go to page 366 

Note

Step 5

Install quick connector onto re-brazed pipe. 

Step 6

Inject nitrogen gas with 1.57Mpa pressure through quick connector into pipe. 

Step 7

Use pliers to cut the capillary off. 

Step 8

Check if gas is blowing out from capillary 

DIAGNOSIS 1

PROCEDURE 1

Step 1

Clean paint from brazed joint of drying-filter. 

Step 2

Cut off drying-filter. 

Step 3

Cut off capillary and shake to remove the cut end. 

Step 4

Braze on a new drying- filter. 

Step 5

Inject nitrogen (1.57Mpa) through quick connector into pipe for at least 3 min to blow remaining refrigerant away. 

Step 6

Add quick connector onto processing pipe of drying-filter. 

Step 7

Perform leakage test on brazed joints of drying- filter and processing pipe on compressor. 

Step 8

Vacuum and recharge.

Please get more details of vacuuming and gas- charging requirements on page 313 

Step 9

Block processing pipe twice with locking pliers. 

Step 10

Leave locking pliers on the second block and cut off the rest of the pipe by shaking. 

Step 11

Braze the ends and remove the pliers.
