Note: when vacuuming is finished, pressure inside the unit should be kept lower than 80Pa for at least 30
minutes to make sure there is no leak. Either charging valve 1 or charging valve 2 can be used for vacuuming.
(3) Charging: when vacuuming is finished and it is certain that there is no leak, charging can be done.
◆
Be sure to charge the specified amount of refrigerant in liquid state.
Since this refrigerant is a mixed refrigerant, adding it in gas form may cause the refrigerant composition to
change, preventing normal operation.
◆
Before charging, check whether the refrigerant cylinder is equipped with a siphon tube or not.
