Installation
1. Place the radiator coil in the unit and install
the mounting bolts.
2. Connect the coolant hoses to the radiator
connections on the radiator coil.
3. Install the roadside condenser coil. See
“Roadside Condenser Coil” on page 140 for
the installation procedure.
4. Pressurize the refrigeration system and test for
leaks. If no leaks are found, evacuate the
system.
5. Install the engine coolant expansion tank and
refill the cooling system with engine coolant.
6. Close the roadside condenser grille and top
door.
7. Recharge the unit with proper refrigerant and
check the compressor oil.
Discharge Vibrasorber
Removal
1. Recover the refrigerant charge.
2. Heat the connections on the vibrasorber until
the vibrasorber can be removed.
Installation
1. Prepare the vibrasorber and tubing fittings by
cleaning thoroughly.
2. Solder the vibrasorber connections.
3. Pressurize the system and test for leaks. If no
leaks are found, evacuate the system.
4. Charge the unit with the proper refrigerant and
check the compressor oil level.
In-Line Condenser Check Valve
This unit uses an in-line condenser check valve.
The in-line check valve is not repairable and must
be replaced if it fails. A heat sink must be used on
the in-line check valve when it is being soldered
in place to prevent damage to the neoprene seal.
Condenser Check Valve
Replacement
Removal
1. Recover the refrigerant charge.
2. Place a heat sink on the check valve.
3. Unsolder the lines and remove the check
valve.
Installation
NOTE: A heat sink must be used on the in-line
check valve when it is being soldered in place to
prevent damage to the neoprene seal.
1. Clean the tubes for soldering.
2. Place the check valve in position. The arrow
on the valve body indicates the direction of
refrigerant flow through the valve.
3. Place a heat sink on the check valve.
4. Solder the inlet and outlet connections.
5. Pressurize the refrigeration system and test for
leaks.
CAUTION: Use a heat sink, P/N 204-584
or wrap the vibrasorber with wet rags to
prevent damaging the vibrasorber.
