Refrigerant Line Leak Check

Table 17.

Check for Leaks

1.

Pressurize the refrigerant lines and evaporator coil to 150 PSIG
using dry nitrogen.

150 PSIG

2.

Check for leaks by using a soapy solution at each brazed location.

Note:

Remove nitrogen pressure and repair any leaks before

continuing.

ntt:: Do not open the service valves until the

refrigerant lines and indoor coil leak check
and evacuation are complete.

1. Evacuate until the micron gauge reads no higher than

350 microns, then close off the valve to the vacuum
pump.

2. Observe the micron gauge. Evacuation is complete if

the micron gauge does not rise above 500 microns in
one (1) minute.

3. When evacuation is complete, blank off the vacuum

pump and micron gauge, and close the valves on the
manifold gauge set.
