STEP 3 -- LEAK TEST AND EVACUATION (CONTINUED)

CONNECT GAUGE SET
NOTE - Remove cores from service valves (if not already done).
A - Connect low side of manifold gauge set with
1/4 SAE in-line tee to suction line service
valve
B - Connect high side of manifold gauge set to
liquid line service valve
C - Connect available micron gauge connector
on the 1/4 SAE in-line tee.
D - Connect the vacuum pump (with vacuum
gauge) to the center port of the manifold
gauge set. The center port line will be used
later for both the HFC-410A and nitrogen
containers.

EVACUATE THE SYSTEM
A -
Open both manifold valves and start the vacuum pump.
B - Evacuate the line set and indoor unit to an absolute pressure of 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury).
NOTE - During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at least once. A rapid rise in pressure
indicates a relatively large leak. If this occurs, repeat the leak testing procedure.
NOTE - The term absolute pressure means the total actual pressure above absolute zero within a given volume or system. Absolute
pressure in a vacuum is equal to atmospheric pressure minus vacuum pressure.
C - When the absolute pressure reaches 23,000 microns (29.01 inches of mercury), perform the following:
●
Close manifold gauge valves.
●
Close valve on vacuum pump.
●
Turn off vacuum pump.
●
Disconnect manifold gauge center port hose from vacuum pump.
●
Attach manifold center port hose to a nitrogen cylinder with pressure
regulator set to 150 psig (1034 kPa) and purge the hose.
●
Open manifold gauge valves to break the vacuum in the line set and
indoor unit.
●
Close manifold gauge valves.
D - Shut off the nitrogen cylinder and remove the manifold gauge hose from the cylinder. Open the manifold gauge valves to release the
nitrogen from the line set and indoor unit.
E -
Reconnect the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump, turn the pump on, and continue to evacuate the line set and indoor unit until the
absolute pressure does not rise above 500 microns (29.9 inches of mercury) within a 20-minute period after shutting off the vacuum pump
and closing the manifold gauge valves.
F -
When the absolute pressure requirement above has been met, disconnect the manifold hose from the vacuum pump and connect it to a
cylinder of HFC-410A positioned to deliver liquid refrigerant. Open the manifold gauge valve 1 to 2 psig in order to release the vacuum in
the line set and indoor unit.
G - Perform the following:
●
Close manifold gauge valves.
●
Shut off HFC-410A cylinder.
●
Reinstall service valve cores by removing manifold hose from service valve. Quickly
install cores with core tool while maintaining a positive system pressure.
●
Replace stem caps and finger tighten them, then tighten an additional one-sixth (1/6)
of a turn as illustrated.

Possible equipment damage.
Avoid deep vacuum operation. Do not use
compressors to evacuate a system.
Extremely low vacuum can cause internal
arcing and compressor failure. Damage
caused by deep vacuum operation will
void warranty.
