Always

 start with a fresh oil charge in 

the vacuum pump. 

 

Always

  use  a  liquid  trap  or  collection 

flask. 

 

Always

 use a vacuum gauge to verify 

the  level  of  vacuum  achieved.    Run 
time has almost nothing to do with the 
level of vacuum achieved. 

 

Never

  pull  a  vacuum  if  the  ACT5 

Maintenance Checker indicates an LT 
temperature exceeding 90°F 

(32°C)

 

Never

  pull  an  extended  vacuum 

(exceeding a few hours)

.  If such seems 

to  be  necessary,  there  is  likely  to  be 
something  wrong  with  the  vacuum 
pump 

or 

the 

oil 

has 

been 

contaminated  with  moisture  inherently 
found inside the chiller-heater vacuum 
section. 

Use  only  dual-stage,  deep  vacuum 

pumps.    Typical  refrigeration  vacuum 
pumps may not perform well on a vessel 
as  large  as  the  chiller-heater  vacuum 

section.  Just because the vacuum pump 
has  stopped  producing  bubbles  in  the 
water  bucket  does  NOT  mean  the 
vacuum  level  is  adequate.    A  digital 
vacuum gauge MUST be used in order to 
determine  the  true  level  of  vacuum 
achieved. 

The  desired  level  of  vacuum  on  a 

machine  that  is  not  running  would  be 
less  than  2000  microns 

(<2mmHg)

,  with 

less 

than 

1000 

microns 

(<1mmHg)

 

preferred.    On  a  machine  actively 
running  in  Cool  mode 

(burner  engaged)

the  desired  level  of  vacuum  is  5000 
microns 

(5mmHg),

  no  less.    Any  lower 

than 5000 microns 

(5mmHg)

 on a running 

machine will cause the vacuum pump to 
remove  an  extraordinary  amount  of 
refrigerant vapor 

(water)

A  step-by-step,  detailed  evacuation 

method  is  provided  in  Section  5  of  the 
Service Manual.  The general evacuation 
assembly setup is displayed in Fig. 11.
