Installation
Section 2
Step 4
Pressure Test and Evacuate Line Set and ICVD
Condensing Unit.
•
Shutoff valves for the line set must remain closed until
pressure testing and evacuation are complete.
•
Valve core removal tools that allow for removal and
installation of the valve cores without removing hoses
for the manifold gauge set are recommended to
decrease the evacuation time.
•
Pressure test at 1000 kPa (150 psi) for a minimum of 15
minutes.
•
Minimum evacuation level is 500 microns.
Pressure test the line sets and ICVD Condensing Unit with
1000 kPa (150 psi) of dry nitrogen. Add nitrogen at the
shutoff valves for the line set located at the back of the ice
machine head section or from the access valves located
in the ICVD Condensing Unit. Complete the pressure test,
verify no leaks are present and remove the nitrogen from
the system before connecting the vacuum pump.
ALTERNATE CONNECTIONS AT
CONDENSING UNIT SCHRADER VALVES
A retention valve is present in the compressor discharge
line. The retention valve requires evacuation connections at
five points.
Ice Machine Head Section
1. Receiver Access Valve
2. Low Side Access Valve
3. High Side Access Valve
ICVD Condensing Unit
4. Compressor Discharge Access Valve
5. Suction Filter Access Valve
Connection of a manifold gauge set (or a hose with core
depressors on both ends) between the suction-filter access
port and the compressor access valve (located between the
compressor and discharge line retention valve) is required.
