IMPORTANT
The following procedures require accurate
readings of ambient (outdoor) temperature, liquid
temperature and liquid pressure for proper
charging. Use a thermometer with accuracy of
+2
°
F( + 1.1
°
C) and a pressure gauge with accuracy
of +5PSIG ( + 34.5kPa)
1 − Expansion Valve Systems
The following procedures are intended as a general guide
for use with expansion valve systems only. For best results,
indoor temperature should be between 70
°
F and 80
°
F
(21.1
°
C and 26.6
°
C) . If outdoor temperature is 60
°
F (16
°
C) or above the approach method of charging is used. If
outdoor temperature is less than 60
°
F (16
°
C) the
subcooling method of charging is used. Slight variations in
charging temperature and pressure should be expected.
Large variations may indicate a need for further servicing.

1 − Connect gauge manifold. Connect an upright
HCFC22 drum to center port of gauge manifold.
2 − Record outdoor air (ambient) temperature.
3 − Operate indoor and outdoor units in cooling mode.
Allow outdoor unit to run until system pressures
stabilize.
4 − Make sure thermometer well is filled with mineral oil
before checking liquid line temperature.
5 − Place thermometer in well and read liquid line
temperature. Liquid line temperature should be
warmer than the outdoor air temperature. Tables 11
and 12 shows how many degrees warmer the liquid
line temperature should be.
Add refrigerant to lower the liquid line temperature.
Recover refrigerant to raise the liquid line
temperature.
Add refrigerant slowly as the unit approaches the
correct temperature. This will allow refrigerant to
stabilize allowing the correct temperature to be read.

NOTE- It may be necessary to restrict air flow in order to
reach liquid pressures in the 200-250 psig range which
are required for checking charge. The indoor temperature
should be above 70
_
F(21
_
C). Block equal sections of air
intake panels as shown in figure 16, moving obstructions
sideways until liquid pressures in the 200-250 psig range
are reached.
Block outdoor coil one side at a time
with cardboard or plastic sheets until
proper testing pressures are reached.

1 − Connect gauge manifold. Connect an upright
HCFC22 drum to center port of gauge manifold.
2 − Operate indoor and outdoor units in cooling mode.
Allow outdoor unit to run until system pressures
stabilize.
3 − Make sure thermometer well is filled with mineral oil
before checking liquid line temperature.
4 − Read liquid line pressure and convert to condensing
temperature using temperature/ pressure
conversion chart.
Condensing temperature (read from gauges) should
be warmer than the liquid line temperature.
5 − Place thermometer in well and read liquid line
temperature. Tables 13 and 14 shows how much
warmer the condensing temperature should be.
Add refrigerant to lower liquid line temperature.
Recover refrigerant to raise liquid line temperature.
6 − When unit is properly charged liquid line
pressures should approximate those given in
tables 15 and 16 .
