5.1 Preparations for start-up
5.4 Evacuation
First evacuate the
system
and then include
the compressor in the evacuation process.
Relieve the compressor pressure.
Open the suction and discharge line valves.
Evacuate the suction and discharge 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.
Repeat the process as often as is required.
INFO!
To protect the compressor against inadmissible operating conditions,
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.
Check the compressor for transport damage!
5.2 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
the entire plant is subjected to an additional pressure strength test:
Test the refrigeration circuit according to EN 378-2 or a corresponding safety standard.
5.3 Leak test
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.
