Prevailing good refrigeration practices should be employed for piping supports, leak testing, evacuation,
dehydration and charging of the refrigeration circuits. The refrigeration piping should be isolated from
the building by the use of vibration-isolating supports. Use a soft, flexible material to pack around the
tubes when sealing openings in walls to prevent tube damage and to reduce vibration transmission.
Before connecting units together with field-fabricated piping, check for leaks and dehydrate the field
piping as follows:
1. Pressurize the field piping to 150 psig (1034 kPa) using dry nitrogen with a trace of refrigerant.
Check system for leaks with a suitable leak detector.
2. After completion of leak testing, release the test pressure (per local code) and triple evacuate
the field piping to 500 microns or lower, breaking the vacuum between the first two
evacuations with dry nitrogen.
3. After the third evacuation, verify 500 microns is maintained for at least one minute after the
piping is isolated from the vacuum pump by a shutoff valve.
Field piping is now ready to be installed between evaporator and condensing units.
