CHARGING METHOD 2: COOLING CHARGING CURVE
1. Start and run the unit in cool mode, ensuring that both circuit 1 and 2 system compressors are in 100%
operation and systems stabilized for 20 minutes, record discharge pressure and liquid line temperature.
2. Plot the data in the cooling charging curve below.
3. If the plotted data point falls above the charging curve, it is necessary to remove charge.
If the plotted data point falls below the charging curve, it is necessary to add charge.
3. Repeat process 1 - 3 until the plotted data point falls along the curve.
EXAMPLE:
Discharge Pressure = 3350 kPa
Liquid Line = 45
