IV- SYSTEMS SERVICE CHECKS
WARNING
Refrigerant can be harmful if it is inhaled. Refrigerant
must be used and recovered responsibly.
Failure to follow this warning may result in personal
injury or death.
A-Charging
WARNING-Do not exceed nameplate charge under
any condition.
This unit is factory charged and should require no further
adjustment. If the system requires additional refrigerant,
reclaim the charge, evacuate the system, and add re-
quired nameplate charge.
NOTE - System charging is not recommended below 60°F
(15°C). In temperatures below 60°F (15°C) , the charge
must be weighed into the system.
If weighing facilities are not available, or to check the
1 - Attach gauge manifolds to discharge and suction
lines. With the economizer disabled, operate the unit
in cooling mode at high speed using the following

ING STAGE 3
2 - Use a thermometer to accurately measure the
outdoor ambient temperature.
3 -
TABLE 9 to determine normal operating pressures.
Pressures are listed for sea level applications at
80F dry bulb and 67F wet bulb return air.
4 - Compare the normal operating pressures to
the pressures obtained from the gauges. Minor
variations in these pressures may be expected due
could mean that the system is not properly charged
or that a problem exists with some component in
the system. Correct any system problems before
proceeding.
If discharge pressure is high, remove refrigerant
from the system. If discharge pressure is low, add
refrigerant to the system.
• Add or remove charge in increments.
• Allow the system to stabilize each time refrigerant
is added or removed.
6 - Use the following subcooling method along with the
