14-6. SERVICE VALVES. The purpose of the service valve is to service the air conditioning system (Testing,
Bleeding, Evacuating and Charging). This aircraft is equipped with service valves mounted in the suction and
discharge lines of the evaporator assembly. These valves are the “2” position type Schrader valves. All normal
air conditioning service should be performed at the evaporator assembly mounted valves.
NOTE
Service valves are also located on the compressor. However, use of these
valves in servicing is not recommended.
NOTE
If a Schrader service valve is not serviceable, the core assembly must be
replaced.
