Vacuum pumping
Leakage detection
1. Remove the valve caps on
the liquid valve and gas
valve and the nut of refri-
gerant charging vent.
2. Connect the charging hose
of
manifold
to the refri-
gerant charging vent of gas
valve and then connect
the
other charging hose to the
vacuum pump.
3.
Open the
manifold
completely and operate
for
15min to check if the
pressure of
manifold
re
mains in -0.1MPa.
4.
Close the vacuum pump
and maintain this
status for
2min to check if the pres
sure of the
manifold remainsin -0.1MPa. If the pressure
decreases, there may be leakage.
5.
Remove the
manifold
, open the valve core of liquid valve and gas valve
completely with inner hexagon spanner.
6.
Tighten the screw caps of valves and refrigerant charging vent.
7.
Reinstall the handle.

1. With leakage detector:
Check if there is leakage with leakage detector.
2. With soap water:
If leakage detector is not available, please use soap water for leakage detection.
Apply soap water at the suspected position and keep the soap water for more
than 3min. If there are air bubbles coming out of this position, there's a leakage.
