When repairing a leak, it is recommended using oxygen free dry nitrogen with a trace gas not
exceeding 200PSI.
When accessing an R290 system, piercing valves are not to remain on the equipment in
a permanent manner. After charge is recovered, Schrader valves are to be installed on the
process stubs. Proper charge is to be weighed into the system and the system is to be leak
checked afterwards.
The R290 equipment must have red process tubes and other devices through which the
refrigerant is serviced, such as any service port. This color marking must remain on the
equipment. If marking is removed, it must be replace and extend at least 2.5 centimeters (1”)
