1) Re-air purging
(Re-installation)
• Procedure
(1) Confirm that both the liquid side valve and the
gas side valve are set to the closed position.
(2) Connect the charge set and a gas cylinder to
the service port of the 3-way valve.
– Leave the valve on the gas cylinder closed.
– Leave the valve on the gas cylinder closed.
(3) Air purging.
– Open the valves on the gas cylinder and the
charge set. Purge the air by loosening the flare
nut on the liquid side valve approximately 45°
for 3 seconds then closing it for 1 minute;
repeat 3 times.
