8.3 Refrigerant Circuit
8.3.1 Refrigerant charge
To be checked: sight glass, LP switch
An insufficient charge causes the formation of bubbles in the sight glass (in full load operation)
or in extreme cases the triggering of the LP switch. An operation with an insufficient refrigerant
quantity over a longer period leads to a reduction of cooling capacity and to high superheating
temperatures, which have a disadvantageous effect on the compressor lifetime.
If a leak is detected:
evacuate all the refrigerant gas and dispose it according to the national regulation
repair the leak
do a pressure test by nitrogen
extract the nitrogen by the vacuum pump (not by the compressor!) to approximately 0 barg
fill with refrigerant gas according to name plate of the chiller for type and weight
INFORMATION
R410A must be charged in a liquid state.
