Air Entered in the Cycle
1. Symptoms seen in refrigerating cycle
• Both LO and HI pressure side (1), (2) pressures too high.
LO pressure side (1)
0.20 to 0.35 MPa (2.0 to 3.5 kgf/cm
2
, 28.4 to 49.8 psi)
HI pressure side (2)
1.96 to 2.45 MPa (20 to 25 kgf/cm
2
, 284.5 to 355.6 psi)
• LO pressure side (1) piping not cold when touched.
2. Probable cause
• Air entered in refrigerating cycle.
3. Solution
• Replace receiver.
• Check compressor oil contamination and quantity.
• Evacuate and recharge new refrigerant. (See page 10-S19.)
• The above cycle can be seen when the cycle is charged
without evacuation.

Moisture Entered in the Cycle
1. Symptoms seen in refrigerating cycle
• The air conditioner operates normally at the beginning, but
over time, LO pressure side (1) pressure is vacuum and HI
pressure side (2) is low pressure.
LO pressure side (1): Vacuum
HI pressure side (2)
0.69 to 0.98 MPa (7 to 10 kgf/cm
2
, 99.6 to 142.2 psi)
2. Probable cause
• The moisture in the refrigerating cycle freezes in the
expansion valve orifice and causes temporary blocking.
After a time, the ice melts and condition returns to normal.
3. Solution
• Replace receiver.
• Remove moisture in cycle by means of repeated
evacuation. (See page 10-S18.)
• Recharge new refrigerant to the proper level. (See page
10-S19.)
