New YORK Refrigeration oil must be used in the centrifugal compressor. Since oil absorbs moisture

when exposed to the atmosphere, it should be kept tightly capped until used.

Oil charging procedure

About this task:

During operation, the compressor oil level must be maintained in the OPERATING RANGE identified

on the vertical oil level indicator. If the oil level falls into the lower sight glass, it is necessary to add

oil to the compressor oil reservoir. Charge the oil into the oil reservoir using the YORK Oil Charging

Pump – YORK P/N 470-10654-000. To charge oil into the oil reservoir, proceed as follows:

1. Shut down the unit.
2. Immerse the suction connection of the oil charging pump in a clean container of new oil and

connect the pump discharge connection to the oil charging valve (A) located on the remote

oil reservoir cover plate. See Figure 13. Do not tighten the connection at the charging valve

until after the air is forced out by pumping a few strokes of the oil pump. This fills the lines

with oil and prevents air from being pumped into the system.

3. Open the oil charging valve and pump oil into the system until oil level in the compressor oil

reservoir is in the OVER FULL region of the oil level indicator label. Close the charging valve

and disconnect the hand oil pump.

4. As soon as oil charging is complete, close the power supply to the starter to energize the oil

heater. This keeps the concentration of refrigerant in the oil to a minimum.

What to do next:

When the oil reservoir is initially charged with oil, the oil pump should be started manually to fill

the lines, passages, oil cooler and oil filter. This lowers the oil level in the reservoir. It may then be

necessary to add oil to bring the level back into the OPERATING RANGE of the oil level indicator

label.
