Refrigeration Service
This ice machine use R-134a type refrigerant.
There are specific rules for handling that
refrigerant.
To check for system pressures, add a field supplied
clamp-on type service valve as a temporary means
of system access. After diagnosis and before final
repair, replace the clamp-on type valve with valves
that are brazed onto the process tubes of the
system.
Use a low flow of dry nitrogen when brazing on the
system.
Install a new filter drier when replacing a
refrigeration component or after a refrigerant leak
repair.
Evacuate the system to at least 300 microns and
use a micron gauge to measure the evacuation
level.
Weigh in the nameplate charge. The machine is
critically charged and a partial ounce mis-charge
will affect performance.
