5) Disconnect the Vacuum Pump, and attach a Refrigerant Service Cylinder to the High-

side line. Remember to loosen the connection, and purge the air from the Hose. For
water-cooled models, see the Nameplate for the required refrigerant charge. For remote
air-cooled models, see the Charge Label in the machine compartment. Hoshizaki

recommends only virgin refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant which meets ARI Standard

No. 700-88 be used.

6) A liquid charge is recommended for charging an R-404A system. Invert the service

cylinder. Open the High-side, Service Manifold Valve.

7) Allow the system to charge with liquid until the pressures balance.

8) If necessary, add any remaining charge to the system through the Low-side. Use a

throttling valve or liquid dispensing device to add the remaining liquid charge through
the Low-side access port with the unit running.

9) Close the two Refrigerant Access Valves, and disconnect the Hoses and Service Mani-

fold.

10) Cap the Access Valves to prevent a possible leak.

2. BRAZING

DANGER

1. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and
temperatures up to 176° F.

2. Refrigerant R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when
exposed to high temperatures (open flames) R-404A can be decomposed to

form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.

3. Always recover the refrigerant and store it in an approved container. Do not
discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.

4. Do not use silver alloy or copper alloy containing Arsenic.

5. Do not use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
Refrigerant leaks can be detected by charging the unit with a little refrigerant,

raising the pressure with nitrogen and using an electronic leak detector.

Note: All brazing-connections inside the Evaporator Case are clear-paint coated.
Sandpaper the brazing connections before unbrazing the components. Use a good

abrasive cloth to remove coating.
