(5) Can Tap Valve
The can tap valve that is used to charge the refrigerant into the
air conditioning system, should be used as follows :
1. Before putting the can tap valve on the refrigerant container,
turn the handle (1) counterclockwise till the valve needle is
fully retracted.
2. Turn the plate nut (disc) (4) counterclockwise till it reaches its
highest position, then screw down the can tap valve into the
sealed tap.
3. Turn the place nut clockwise fully, and fix the center charging
hose to the valve.
4. Tighten the place nut firmly by hand.
5. Turn the handle (1) clockwise, thus making a hole in the
sealed tap.
6. To charge the refrigerant into the system, turn the handle (1)
counterclockwise. To stop charging, turn it clockwise.
(6) T-joint
T-joint (2) is used to increase efficiency of gas charging using
two refrigerant containers (4) at a time.
1. Install two refrigerant container service valves to T-joint (2)
sides and connect the charging hose (1) to it.
(7) R134a Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling Machine
When there is necessity of discharging the refrigerant on
repairing the tractor, it should use recovery and recycling
machine. (Don't release the refrigerant into the atmosphere.)
A
Use only R134a refrigerant recovery and recycling
machine, eliminate mixing R134a equipment, refrigerant
and refrigerant oils with R12 systems to prevent
compressor damage.
