Vacuum pumping
Leakage detection
1. Remove the valve caps on
the liquid valve and gas
valve and the nut of refri-
gerant charging vent.
2. Connect the charging ho-
se of piezometer to the
refrigerant charging vent
of gas valve and then co-
nnect the other charging
hose to the vacuum pump.
3. Open the piezometer com-
pletely and operate for
10-15min to check if the
pressure of piezometer re-
mains in -0.1MPa.
4. Close the vacuum pump
and maintain this status for
1-2min to check if the pres-
sure of piezometer remains
in -0.1MPa. If the pressure decreases, there may be leakage.
5. Remove the piezometer, open the valve core of liquid valve and gas valve
completely with inner hexagon spanner.
6. Tighten the screw caps of valves and refrigerant charging vent.

1. With leakage detector:
Check if there is leakage with leakage detector.
2. With soap water:
If leakage detector is not available, please use soap water for leakage detection.
Apply soap water at the suspected position and keep the soap water for more
than 3min. If there are air bubbles coming out of this position, there's a leakage.
7. Reinstall the handle.
