Figure 6-61. Capillary Tubes, Refrigerant
Valves, Dual Outlet Filter-Drier
NOTE: Move tray slowly and observe the sealed sys-
tem tubing. Care must be taken to not kink any of the
tubing.
Now, cut both outlet tubes approximately 1" from the fil-
ter-drier, and cut the drier inlet tube approximately 1"
from the filter-drier. (See Figure 6-61)
Evaporator
Refrigerator Section Evaporator Access and
Removal (Model 427R ONLY)
The refrigerator evaporator is mounted to the rear wall
of the refrigerator section with Phillips-head screws.
(See Figures 6-60)
NOTE: See SHARP EVAPORATOR FINS CAUTION at
beginning of this section.
Before accessing and removing the refrigerator evapo-
rator, evacuate the refrigerant from the sealed system.
Then, remove the four drawer slides and both drawer
closers. Remove the evaporator fan cover mounting
screws and the evaporator fan cover. Remove both
Reed switches and remove the mounting screws
towards the bottom of the evaporator cover. Rotate the
top of the evaporator cover forward and pull it out.
Remove both evaporator support covers. Extract the
evaporator mounting screws. Now, cut the evaporator
inlet and outlet tubing and pull the evaporator out.
Wine Storage Refrigerant Valve Access and
Removal (Models 427 & 427R)
The refrigerant valves are located to the right of the
compressor(s) on the unit tray, and are held to the valve
bracket with P-clamps and screws. The top valve is for
the upper wine storage compartment and the bottom
valve is for the lower wine storage compartment. (See
Figure 6-61)
NOTE: See HOT COMPRESSOR & TUBING CAU-
TION at beginning of this section.
After evacuating the refrigerant from the sealed system,
you will need to slide the unit tray out. (See Figure 6-
34)
NOTE: Move tray slowly and observe the sealed sys-
tem tubing. Care must be taken to not kink any of the
tubing.
Now, cut the capillary tube approximately 1" from the
refrigerant valve, and cut the valve inlet tube approxi-
mately 3" from the refrigerant valve. (See Figure 6-61)
Wine Storage Filter-Drier Access and Removal
(Models 427 & 427R)
The wine storage filter-drier, which has two outlet tubes,
is located to the left of the condenser on the unit tray.
One outlet tube runs to the top refrigerant valve, and
the other tube runs to the bottom refrigerant valve.
(See Figure 6-61)
NOTE: See HOT COMPRESSOR & TUBING CAU-
TION at beginning of this section.
After evacuating the refrigerant from the sealed system,
you’ll need to slide the unit tray out. (See Figure 6-34)
