Refrigerant Leak Testing

A leak free system assures trouble system operation and performance. Loss of refrigerant willbe accompanied by reduced system efficiency and capacity. It will also cause repeated activation ofsystem safety monitors, shutting down the unit. Leak testing should be accomplished at scheduledintervals, and after any work has been accomplished on the unit.

Check the liquid line glass in order to control the flow of refrigerant and the humidity in the coolingcircuit.

If a leak has occurred, it may spread refrigerant throughout the interior of the unit, making locatingthe leak difficult. The interior of the unit should be aired prior to testing. When a leak is detectedbut you are unable to pinpoint the location, use compressed air to blow the area free of vapour, thenimmediately retest before the leaking vapour spreads.

Utilize a draft free area when leak testing to prevent the loss of vapour from small leaks. Insurethat the testing area is free of compressor oil, which may contain dissolved refrigerant, giving falsetest indications.

The testing method used here is the Electronic Leak Detector. This is the easiest method for leakdetection. Electronic leak detectors can be used in areas where an open flame is not permitted. Adetecting probe is passed over the area of a suspected leak. If a leak is present, the detector sounds ahigh frequency alarm or signals by a flashing light, depending on the model used.

Refrigerant leak repair

(a) Locate leak as described above.

(b) Using a refrigeration recovery system compatible with R134a, pump refrigerant from the systemand dispose.

(c) Replace drier if necessary, see sight glass for moisture indication.

(d) Correct leak as described below.

(e) If no leaks are present, pump out system and then evacuate system to at least 270 [Pa], holdfor 30 minutes. Break vacuum with nitrogen and raise system pressure to 0 to 0.34 bars. Re-evacuate system to 270 [Pa]. Repeat this for a total of three times, then charge the system withR134a.

WARNING!

ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION DURING REPAIRS.PHOGENE GAS, A DEADLY POISON, IS GENERATED WHEN

REFRIGERANT IS EXPOSED TO FLAME.

Maintenance

(f) Leak repair procedure :

• Thoroughly clean paint, dirt and oil film from adjacent piping. Use a wire brush, sandclothor sandpaper.

• Wrap nearby parts with water-soaked cloths to protect them from heat damage duringrepairs.

• If a solder joint requires repair, disassemble the joint and clean away any refrigerant oilwhich may be present. Oil traces will not allow a leak-proof solder repair to be made.After cleaning, reassemble the parts and solder.

• Solder repairs the leak. For copper to copper piping, use Lastek 34 (30% silver) typeL-AG30CD.

• Reassemble and tighten any connections previously loosened.

• If the plumbing system has been opened for repair, evacuate the system previously open toa vacuum of 405 [Pa]. Add dry nitrogen to raise pressure to 10,3 [bar].

• Open all previously closed valves.

• Perform a pressure check for leaks with foam products.

• If all leaks are repaired, evacuate system to 270 [Pa] at least three times.

Refrigerant charging

Charge procedure method :

Prior to starting, weigh the bottle of refrigerant to be used for charging, and record its weight.

(a) Using a recovery/charging unit, add approximately 10 kg of R134a to the cooling section thatwas repaired.

(b) Check all valves are open.

(c) Start the unit (compressor running).

(d) Charge the remainder of the refrigerant through the suction port until the liquid sight glassshows clear.

WARNING!

USE ONLY R134A REFRIGERANT. IF ANY OTHER TYPE OFREFRIGERANT IS USED, THE UNIT WILL NOT FUNCTION

PROPERLY.

Moisture in a refrigerant system. Evacuation of moisture

Whenever the refrigeration system is opened, care must be taken to prevent the entry of moistureand/or air into the system.

The strainer/drier in the system is designed to remove particles and small amounts of moisturewhich may enter the system during minor servicing or fault conditions. Major moisture intrusionthrough fault or contamination may require complete system evacuation for moisture remova.

Moisture in a refrigerant system is directly or indirectly the real cause of more problems andcomplaints than all other causes combined. Moisture in a system can be classified as visible andinvisible. Rarely is liquid water found in a system, normally all intrusive moisture will be in the formof vapour. A single drop of moisture in a system can cause ”freeze-ups”’. Moisture can be picked upby the refrigerant and be transported through the lines as a fine mist, causing ice crystals to format the point of expansion (expansion valve). These ice crystals will retard or stop the flow of therefrigerant, causing a reduction or complete loss of cooling. As the expansion valve warms due to thelack of refrigerant, the ice melts and passes through the expansion valve. The moisture will then cyclethrough the system until it again returns to the expansion valve, and the cycle is repeated. The resultis intermittent cooling. Moisture can also cause corrosion, which can present serious problems, oftennot apparent until severe damage has occurred. Moisture, combined with refrigerants, can create acidswhich in turn greatly increase the corrosion of metals and copper plating.

Refrigerant oil has an attraction for moisture and will absorb it rapidly if left open to the atmo-sphere. Water formed acids mix with refrigerant oil, the two forming a closely bonded mixture offine globules. The effect is called ”sludging”’ and greatly reduces the lubricating ability of the oil.The corrosion caused by the presence of this moisture in the form of ”sludge”’ can plug fine strainers,expansion valves and capillary tubes. Because it usually contains acids, sludge will corrode whateverit clings to, accelerating system damage. It is imperative that only fresh oil from unopened containersbe used. Previously opened oil provides too great a danger of system moisture intrusion.

The most effective means in removing moisture from a system is to utilize a high (deep) vacuumpump. A high vacuum pump is capable of removing all moisture from a hermetic system by reducinginternal system pressures to the boiling point of water at normal temperatures. The vacuum pumpdoes not ”suck out”’ the liquid moisture, but rather causes it to boil into a vapour state at which timeit can be harmlessly removed from the system and exhausted through the vacuum pump.

The ideal vacuum pump should evacuate the system to at least 500 microns, and must also becapable of holding that vacuum throughout the dehydration process. It must pull that vacuum onthe entire system and not simply at the intake of the pump. This pump is able to remove moistureat an ambient temperature of 26oC or over. The adequate pump to be used for this cooling system ismentioned in the Support Test Equipement section.

3.3.1 General

This section contains troubleshooting information to assist, to locate and to correct operating troubleswhich may develop in the unit. Each malfunction for an individual component, unit or system isfollowed by a list of tests or inspections which will help the technician to determine probable causesand corrective action to take.

The test/inspections and corrective actions should be performed in the order listed. Troubleshoot-ing is a logical and systematic process of determining and correcting the cause of a malfunction. Theprocess begins with verification of the malfunction. This may often involve an operational check-outof the unit. After the trouble has been verified, identify all components in the circuit whose failurecould cause the symptoms observed during the operational check-out. The technician should start bychecking those items which are highest in probability of causing the problem. Inspect and test eachcomponent, until the exact cause of the problem is determined and corrected.

WARNING!

USE EXTREME CARE TO AVOID CONTACT WITH HIGH VOLTAGELEADS AT ALL TIMES. REMOVE ALL JEWELRY, SUCH AS RINGS,

WATCHES, CHAINS, ETC..., THAT COULD COME INTO CONTACT WITHEXPOSED LEADS AND WIRES. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN

SEVIER ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR DEATH, AND/OR CAUSE DAMAGE TOEQUIPMENT.

WARNING!

EAR PROTECTION DEVICES MUST BE WORN WHEN IN THEIMMEDIATE VICINITY OF THIS UNIT DURING OPERATION. REPEATEDEXPOSURE TO HAZARDOUS NOISE CAN CAUSE PERMANENT HEARING

LOSS.
