(2) Evacuation
(All amount of refrigerant leaked)
• Procedure
1. Confirm that both the liguid side valve and gas
side valve are set to the opened position.
2. Connect the vaccum pump to the center hose of
the manifold gauge.
3. Connect the service port of the gas side valve to
the low side of the gauge.
4. Evacuation for approximately one hour.
- Confirm that the gauge needle has moved
toward-76 cmHg (vacuum of 4 mmHg or less).
5. Close the Low handle of the gauge turn off the
vacuum pump, and confirm that the gauge nee-
dle does not move(approximately 5 minutes
after turning off the vacuum pump).
dle does not move(approximately 5 minutes
after turning off the vacuum pump).
6. Disconnect the charge hose from the vacuum
pump.
- Vacuum pump oil.
If the vacuum pump oil becomes dirty or deplet-
ed,replenish as needed.
ed,replenish as needed.
7. Mount the valve caps and the service port caps.
8. Apply steps from 1 to 7 to each unit (A-unit, B-
unit) by the same method.

(3) Gas Charging
(After Evacuation)
• Procedure
1. Connect the gauge to the charging cylinder.
- Connect the charge hose which you disconnect-
ed from the vacuum pump to the valve at the
bottom of the cylinder.

- If you are using a gas cylinder, also use a scale
and reverse the cylinder so that the system can
be charged with liquid.

2. Purge the air from the charge hose.
- Open the valve at the bottom of the cylinder and
press the check valve on the charge set to
purge the air. (Be careful of the liquid refriger-
ant). The procedure is the same if using a gas
cylinder.
purge the air. (Be careful of the liquid refriger-
ant). The procedure is the same if using a gas
cylinder.
3. Open the low handle on the gauge and charge
the system with liquid refrigerant.
- If the system can not be charged with the speci-
fied amount of refrigerant, it can be charged
with a little at a time (approximately 150g each
time) while operating the air conditioner in the
cooling cycle; however, one time is not suffi-
cient, wait approximately 1 minute and then
repeat the procedure(pumping down-pin).

4. Immediately disconnect the charge hose from
the gas side valve's service port.
- Stopping partway will allow the gas to be dis-
charged.
- If the system has been charged with liquid
refrigerant while operating the air conditioner
turn off the air conditioner before disconnecting
the hose.
turn off the air conditioner before disconnecting
the hose.
5. Mount the valve stem nuts and the service port
nut.
- Use torque wrench to tighten the service port
nut to a torque of 1.8 kg.m.(4.2kg.m/5.5kg.m.)
- Be sure to check for gas leakage.
6. Apply steps from 1 to 5 to each unit (A-unit, B-
unit) by the same method.

This is different from previous procedures.
Because you are charging with liquid refrigerant
from the gas side, absolutely do not attempt to
charge with larger amounts of liquid refrigerant
while operating the air conditioner.

Notice:
Temperature difference between intake and discharge air depends on room air humidity. When the room air
humidity is relativery higher, temperature difference is smaller. When the room air humidity is relatively lower
temperature difference is larger.
