(1) Use the vacuum pump to suction air and detect any gas leakage (see Figure 6)
a) Connect the charge hose to the outdoor unit.

and turn on the power switch of the vacuum
pump.
In this step, evacuate the appliance (for about 10~15 minutes). For the time of evacuation,
see the manual provided by the equipment manufacturer.
d) When the pointer of the compound pressure gauge indicates -0.1MPa (-76cmHg)

and turn off the power switch of the vacuum pump.
Keep the status for 1~2 minutes and ensure the pointer of the compound pressure gauge has
not turned back.
e) Fully open the control valves.
③④
f) Disconnect the charge hoses.
①②
g) Tighten the cover on the service opening.
⑦
h) Secure the covers on the control valves and check for any gas leakage around the covers.

(2) The refrigerant pipe required for additional refrigerant charging should be longer than the
standard pipe length. (After step e in (1) above, execute the following steps. See Figure 7.)
a) Put the refrigerant cylinder on the electronic loadcell scale and connect the charge hoses of
the cylinder to the connection ports of the electronic loadcell scale.
* Note:
Be sure to make setting so as to charge liquid. When a cylinder with syphon tube is used,
you can charge liquid without turning the cylinder.
b) Connect the charge hose of the manifold pressure gauge to the connection port of the
electronic loadcell scale.
③②
c) Open the valve of the refrigerant cylinder, and slightly open the charging valve and then
close it.
①②
d) After zero position (0) adjustment, open the charging valve and open Valve
Lo
of the
manifold pressure gauge to charge the liquid refrigerant.
②⑤
(Please read the user’s manual before using the electronic loadcell scale.)
e) If the specified amount of refrigerant can’t be charged, charge more little by little through
the cooling operation. (For the amount of each additional charging, see the operation
manual prepared by the equipment manufacturer.) If the amount of the first charge is
inadequate, charge for the second time with the same method as for the first charge after
one minute.
* Note:
Never charge large amount of liquid refrigerant at a time in the cooling mode, as the liquid
refrigerant is charged from the gas side.

Notes:
● Be sure to carefully read the user’s manuals before using
the vacuum pump, vacuum pump adapter and manifold

● Ensure the oil level in the vacuum pump complies with the
level specified in the oil level indicator.
