Installation
Soap water method
1. Remove the caps from the 2-way and 3-way valves.
2. Remove the service-port cap from the 3-way valve.
3. To open the 2-way valve turn the valve stem
counterclockwise approximately 90°, wait for about
2~3 sec, and close it.
4. Apply a soap water or a liquid neutral detergent on
the indoor unit connection or outdoor unit
connections by a soft brush to check for leakage of
the connecting points of the piping.
5. If bubbles come out, the pipes have leakage
Evacuation
1. Connect the charge hose end described in the
preceding steps to the vacuum pump to
evacuate the tubing and indoor unit.
Confirm the "Lo" knob of the manifold valve is
open. Then, run the vacuum pump.
The operation time for evacuation varies with
tubing length and capacity of the pump. The
following table shows the time required for
evacuation.
2. When the desired vacuum is reached, close the
"Lo" knob of the manifold valve and stop the
vacuum pump.
Finishing the job
1. With a service valve wrench, turn the valve stem
of liquid side valve counter-clockwise to fully
open the valve.
2. Turn the valve stem of gas side valve counter-
clockwise to fully open the valve.
3. Loosen the charge hose connected to the gas
side service port slightly to release the pressure,
then remove the hose.
4. Replace the flare nut and its bonnet on the gas
side service port and fasten the flare nut
securely with an adjustable wrench. This
process is very important to prevent leakage
from the system.
5. Replace the valve caps at both gas and liquid
side service valves and fasten them tight.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump.
The air conditioner is now ready to test run.
