D-Refrigerant Charge and Check
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 required
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
charge, use the following procedure:
IMPORTANT - Charge unit in cooling mode. Make sure hot
gas reheat is not energized.
1- Attach gauge manifolds and operate unit in cooling
mode at full CFM with economizer disabled until system
stabilizes (approximately five minutes). Make sure all
outdoor air dampers are closed.
2- Check each system separately with all stages operating.
3- Use a thermometer to accurately measure the outdoor
ambient temperature.
4- Apply the outdoor temperature to tables 7 through 12 to
determine normal operating pressures. Pressures are
listed for sea level applications at 80°F dry bulb and
67°F wet bulb return air.
5- Compare the normal operating pressures to the
pressures obtained from the gauges. Minor variations
in these pressures may be expected due to differences
in installations. Significant differences 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.
6- 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.
7- Use the following approach method along with the
normal operating pressures to confirm readings.
