Selecting lubricating oil for DualPAC units
Only use PAO oils (Polyalphaolefin-based oils) for DualPAC units.
PAO oil is a synthetic oil with low vapour pressure.
Usually, the DualPAC is charged with oil from factory. Do not switch to a different oil type or brand
without first consulting your local Johnson Controls representative.
Oil changes are described in detail in the compressor manual.
PAO oil has many advantages:
–
High chemical stability: it is suitable for long term operation.
–
Low vapour pressure: lower oil carry over from the compressor.
–
High viscosity index: better oil recovery from evaporator.

R717 charge
It is very important that the DualPAC has the correct charge. The P&I diagram states the charge
for each specific compressor.
At normal operation, the suction superheat should be between 0.5 and 3°K for the LP side and be-
tween 1.5 and 4°K for the HP side.
In the evaporator, droplets should come out of the top of the plates. The plates must
not
be cov-
ered by liquid.
Note:
The liquid level must never be visible in the inspection glass.
The quality of the refrigerant must be appropriate for refrigeration applications. For details, see TI
2015-01 Ammonia quality.
