6.6.2

Adding Refrigerant to System (Full Charge)

a. Evacuate unit and leave in deep vacuum. (Refer to

section 6.5.)

b. Place cylinder of R-134a on scale and connect

charging line from cylinder to liquid line valve.
Purge charging line at liquid line valve and then
note weight of cylinder and refrigerant.

c. Open liquid valve on cylinder. Open liquid line

valve half-way and allow the liquid refrigerant to
flow into the unit until the correct weight of
refrigerant has been added as indicated by scales.
Correct charge is noted in Table 6-6.

NOTE

It may be necessary to finish charging unit
through suction service valve in gas form, due
to pressure rise in high side of the system.

(Refer to section 6.6.3)

d. Backseat manual liquid line valve (to close off

gauge port). Close liquid valve on cylinder.

e. Start unit in cooling mode. Run approximately 10

minutes and check the refrigerant charge. (Refer to

section 6.6.1.)

6.6.3

Adding Refrigerant to System (Partial

Charge)

a. Examine the unit refrigerant system for any

evidence of leaks. Repair as necessary. (Refer to

section 6.4.)

b. Maintain the conditions outlined in section 6.6.1.
c. Fully backseat (to close off gauge port) the suction

service valve (see Figure 2-5) and remove the
service port cap.

d. Connect charging line between suction service

valve port and cylinder of refrigerant R-134a. Open
VAPOR valve.

e. Partially frontseat (turn clockwise) the suction

service valve and slowly add charge until the

refrigerant appears at the proper level (refer to
section 6.6.1).

6.7 COMPRESSOR -- MODEL 06DR

WARNING

Make sure power to the unit is OFF and

power plug disconnected before replacing
the compressor.

NOTES

S

The compressor should not operate in a
vacuum greater than 500 mm Hg (20 inches
Hg).

S

The service replacement compressor is sold
without shutoff valves (but with valve pads),

and without terminal box and cover.
Customer should retain the original terminal
box, cover, and high pressure switch for use
on replacement compressor.

S

Check oil level in service replacement
compressor. (Refer to sections 2.2 and 6.10.)

S

A compressor terminal wiring kit must be
ordered as a separate item when ordering

replacement compressor. Appropriate
installation instructions are included with kit.

S

Refer to Table 6-4 and Table 6-5 for
applicable compressor wear limits and torque
values.

S

Refer to Figure 6-34 for charts on compressor
pressure-temperature and motor current

curves.

S

When servicing the compressor, you must
first identify whether it is a single- or
two-speed compressor. This can be
determined by the bolt pattern of the suction
service valve flange. Single-speed has a two

bolt configuration and the two-speed has a
four bolt configuration.
