HERMETIC COMPONENT REPLACEMENT
The following procedure applies when replacing components 
in the sealed refrigeration circuit or repairing  refrigerant leaks. 
(Compressor, condenser, evaporator, capillary tube, refrigerant 
leaks, etc.)
  1. 
Recover the refrigerant from the system at the process 
tube located on the high side of the system by installing a 
line tap on the process tube. Apply gauge from process 
tube to EPA approved  gauges from process tube to EPA 
approved recovery system. Recover CFC’s in system to at 
least 5%.
  2. 
Cut the process tube below pinch off on the suction side 
of the compressor.
  3. 
Connect the line from the nitrogen tank to the suction 
process tube.
  4. 
Drift dry nitrogen through the system and un-solder the 
more distant connection fi rst. (Filter drier, high side process 
tube, etc.)
  5. 
Replace inoperative component, and always install a new 
fi lter drier. Drift dry nitrogen through the system when 
making these connections.
 HERMETIC COMPONENT REPLACEMENT cont’d
  6. 
Pressurize system to 30 PSIG with proper refrigerant and boost 
refrigerant pressure to 150 PSIG with dry nitrogen.
  7. 
Leak  test  complete  system  with  electric  halogen  leak 
detector, correcting any leaks found.
  8. 
Reduce the system to zero gauge pressure.
  9. 
Connect vacuum pump to high side and low side of system 
with deep vacuum hoses, or copper tubing. (Do not use 
regular hoses.)
 10. 
Evacuate system to maximum absolute holding pressure 
of 200 microns or less. NOTE:  This process can be 
accelerated  by  use  of  heat  lamps,  or  by  breaking  the 
vacuum with refrigerant or dry nitrogen at 5,000 microns. 
Pressure system to 5 PSIG and leave in system a 
minimum of 10 minutes. Release refrigerant, and proceed 
with evacuation of a pressure of 200 microns or less.
 11. 
Break vacuum by charging system from the high side with 
the correct amount of liquid refrigerant specifi ed. This will 
prevent boiling the oil out of the crankcase, and damage 
to the compressor due to over heating.
NOTE:  If the entire charge will not enter the high side, allow the 
remainder to enter the low side in small increments while operating 
the unit.
12.   
Restart unit several times after allowing pressures to stabilize. 
Pinch off process tubes, cut and solder the ends. Remove 
pinch off tool, and leak check the process tube ends.
SPECIAL PROCEDURE IN THE CASE OF COMPRESSOR 
MOTOR BURNOUT
  1. 
Recover all refrigerant and oil from the system.
  2. 
Remove compressor, capillary tube and fi lter drier from the 
system.
  3. 
Flush evaporator condenser and all connecting tubing with 
dry nitrogen or equivalent, to remove all contamination 
from system. Inspect suction and discharge line for carbon 
deposits. Remove and clean if necessary.
  4. 
Reassemble the system, including new drier strainer and 
capillary tube.
  5. 
Proceed with processing as outlined under hermetic 
component replacement.
ROTARY COMPRESSOR SPECIAL  TROUBLESHOOTING 
AND SERVICE
Basically, troubleshooting and servicing rotary compressors 
is the same as on the reciprocating compressor with only one 
main exception:
NEVER, under any circumstances, charge a rotary compressor 
through the LOW side. Doing so would cause permanent damage 
to the new compressor.
IMPORTANT
ANY SEALED SYSTEM REPAIRS TO COOL-ONLY MODELS REQUIRE THE INSTALLATION OF A LIQUID LINE DRIER.  
ALSO, ANY SEALED SYSTEM REPAIRS TO HEAT PUMP MODELS REQUIRE THE INSTALLATION OF A SUCTION LINE DRIER.
