Working course
1. Evacuation / leak check of compressor
Connect the discharge and suction sides of the compressor to a vacuum pump
Evacuate the compressor from both sides; vacuum < 1.5 mbar. Check increase in pressure
In case there is an increase in pressure, check the compressor for leaks and evacuate again
Fill in the stipulated amount of oil (2.0 litres)
2. Carrying out the function test
Install the compressor in the system
Carry out a leak test with refrigerant
Make a test run. During this, check the oil level, the leak-tightness of the compressor, the running noise, pressure, temperatures and
the functioning of additional devices such as the capacity regulation
Remark: If the compressor is going to remain in the warehouse, charge it with nitrogen (at about 3 bar pressure) for protection.
