Leak test and vacuum drying

Checking the refrigerant piping involves:

▪ Checking for any leakages in the refrigerant piping.

▪ Performing  vacuum  drying  to  remove  all  moisture,  air  or  nitrogen

in the refrigerant piping.

If  there  is  a  possibility  of  moisture  being  present  in  the  refrigerant
piping  (for  example,  water  may  have  entered  the  piping),  first  carry
out  the  vacuum  drying  procedure  below  until  all  moisture  has  been
removed.

All piping inside the unit has been factory tested for leaks.

Only  field  installed  refrigerant  piping  needs  to  be  checked.
Therefore, make sure that all the outdoor unit stop valves are firmly
closed before performing leak test or vacuum drying.

NOTICE

Make  sure  that  all  (field  supplied)  field  piping  valves  are
OPEN (not outdoor unit stop valves!) before you start leak
test and vacuuming.

For  more  information  on  the  state  of  the  valves,  refer  to

"6.5.3 Checking refrigerant piping: Setup" on page 22

.

6.5.2

Checking refrigerant piping: General
guidelines

Connect the vacuum pump through a manifold to the service port of
all  stop  valves  to  increase  efficiency  (refer  to 

"6.5.3  Checking

refrigerant piping: Setup" on page 22

).

NOTICE

Use  a  2-stage  vacuum  pump  with  a  non-return  valve  or  a
solenoid  valve  that  can  evacuate  to  a  gauge  pressure  of
–⁠100.7 kPa (5 Torr absolute).

NOTICE

Make  sure  the  pump  oil  does  not  flow  oppositely  into  the
system while the pump is not working.

NOTICE

Do not purge the air with refrigerants. Use a vacuum pump
to evacuate the installation.

NOTICE

The  connections  to  the  indoor  units  and  all  indoor  units
should also be leak and vacuum tested. Keep any possible
(field supplied) field piping valves open as well.

Refer to the indoor unit installation manual for more details.
Leak  test  and  vacuum  drying  should  be  done  before  the
power  supply  is  set  to  the  unit.  If  not,  see  also  the  flow
chart  earlier  described  in  this  chapter  (see 

"6.5.1  About

checking the refrigerant piping" on page 21

).

6.5.4

To perform a leak test

The leak test must satisfy the specifications of EN378‑2.

To check for leaks: Vacuum leak test

1

Evacuate  the  system  from  the  liquid  and  gas  piping  to
–⁠100.7 kPa (–⁠1.007 bar/5 Torr) for more than 2 hours.

2

Once  reached,  turn  off  the  vacuum  pump  and  check  that  the
pressure does not rise for at least 1 minute.

3

Should  the  pressure  rise,  the  system  may  either  contain
moisture (see vacuum drying below) or have leaks.

To check for leaks: Pressure leak test

1

Break  the  vacuum  by  pressurising  with  nitrogen  gas  to  a
minimum  gauge  pressure  of  0.2  MPa  (2  bar).  Never  set  the
gauge pressure higher than the maximum operation pressure of
the unit, i.e. 4.0 MPa (40 bar).

2

Test  for  leaks  by  applying  a  bubble  test  solution  to  all  piping
connections.

3

Discharge all nitrogen gas.

NOTICE

Make  sure  to  use  a  recommended  bubble  test  solution
from  your  wholesaler.  Do  not  use  soap  water,  which  may
cause cracking of flare nuts (soap water may contain salt,
which  absorbs  moisture  that  will  freeze  when  the  piping
gets  cold),  and/or  lead  to  corrosion  of  flared  joints  (soap
water  may  contain  ammonia  which  causes  a  corrosive
effect between the brass flare nut and the copper flare).

6.5.5

To perform vacuum drying

NOTICE

The  connections  to  the  indoor  units  and  all  indoor  units
should  also  be  leak  and  vacuum  tested.  Keep,  if  existing,
all  (field  supplied)  field  valves  to  the  indoor  units  open  as
well.

Leak  test  and  vacuum  drying  should  be  done  before  the
power  supply  is  set  to  the  unit.  If  not,  see 

"6.5.1  About

checking  the  refrigerant  piping"  on  page  21

  for  more

information.

To remove all moisture from the system, proceed as follows:

1

Evacuate the system for at least 2 hours to a target vacuum of
–⁠100.7 kPa (–⁠1.007 bar/5 Torr).

2

Check  that,  with  the  vacuum  pump  turned  off,  the  target
vacuum is maintained for at least 1 hour.

3

Should  you  fail  to  reach  the  target  vacuum  within  2  hours  or
maintain  the  vacuum  for  1  hour,  the  system  may  contain  too
much moisture. In that case, break the vacuum by pressurising
with  nitrogen  gas  to  a  gauge  pressure  of  0.05  MPa  (0.5  bar)
and repeat steps 1 to 3 until all moisture has been removed.
