REFRIGERATION SYSTEM: HP62 Refrigerant (R-404A)
THIS ICE MACHINE USES HP62 REFRIGERANT
AND POLYOLESTER COMPRESSOR OIL
DO NOT USE MINERAL OIL IN THIS
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM.
••
HP62 is a "Near Azeotrope", and therefore
liquid charging is required.
¤
Weigh into the discharge side as much of the
charge (as liquid) as possible.
¤
Install a sight glass between the suction side
and the gage manifold. Use the manifold
valve to "flash off" the balance of the
refrigerant charge before it enters the suction
side.
••
When the system is serviced, a special liquid
line dryer is required (see parts list).
••
Polyolester oil absorbs water very easily, and
therefore when the system is opened for
service, it must be re-sealed as soon as
possible (15 minutes maximum).
••
Special leak detection equipment is required to
locate small refrigerant leaks. Usually a leak
detector capable of detecting a Halogenated
refrigerant or HFC-134a will work. Check with
the leak detector manufacturer if in doubt.
••
As with any other refrigerant, do NOT mix with
air for leak testing.
