WARNING – Danger of frostbite from refri-

! The pressure switch is screwed onto a connection
with an integrated Schrader valve. The Schrader val-
ve ensures that no refrigerant can escape from the
system when the pressure switch has been removed.
Nevertheless, a small amount of refrigerant may
escape when the pressure valve is being installed
or removed. Excessive refrigerant loss results in
reduced performance or a malfunction of the water
chiller.
