8) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of
refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the
pressure using nitrogen gas (40 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with
pressurized air for leak testing.
9) Evacuate the system, and charge it with refrigerant. For air-cooled and water-cooled
models, see the nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. For remote air-cooled
models, see the rating label inside the icemaker.
0) Attach the expansion valve bulb to the suction line in the same location as the previous
bulb. The bulb should be between the 0 and o'clock position on the tube. Be sure to
secure the bulb with the clamp and holder and to insulate it.
) Place the expansion valve cover in position.
) Replace the panels in their correct positions.
3) Turn on the power supply.
D. Removal and Replacement of Hot Gas Valve or Liquid Line Valve
CAUTION
. Always use a copper tube of the same diameter and length when replacing
the valve lines; otherwise, performance may be affected.
. Always replace the strainer when replacing the hot gas valve.
3. Always install a new drier every time the sealed refrigeration system is
opened.
4. Do not replace the drier until after all other repair or replacement has been
made. Install the new drier with the arrow on the drier in the direction of the
refrigerant ow.
5. When brazing, protect the valve body and drier by using wet cloths to
prevent the valve body and drier from overheating. Do not allow the valve
body or drier to exceed 50°F (°C).
) Turn off the power supply.
) Remove the panels.
3) Recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container.
4) Remove the bolt and the solenoid.
5) Disconnect the valve. If replacing the hot gas valve, also remove the strainer.
6) Place the new valve and strainer (if applicable) in position.
7) Remove the drier, then place the new drier in position.
8) Braze all ttings while purging with nitrogen gas owing at a pressure of 3 to 4 PSIG.
9) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of
refrigerant to the system (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the
pressure using nitrogen gas (40 PSIG). DO NOT use R-404A as a mixture with
pressurized air for leak testing.
