AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM General Information

GENERAL INFORMATION
1. WHEN HANDLING REFRIGERANT (R12), FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS MUST BE OBSERVED. (a) Do not handle refrigerant in an enclosed area or near an open flame. (b) Always wear eye protection. (e) Be careful that liquid refrigerant does not get in your eyes or on your skin. If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes on your skin; Do not rub. Wash the area with a lot of cool water Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin. Go immediately to a physician or hospital for professional treatment. Do not attempt to treat yourself.

2.

WHEN REPLACEiNG PARTS ON REFRIGERANT LINE; (a) Discharge refrigerant slowly before replacement. (b) Insert a plug immediately in disconnected parts to prevent entry of moisture and dust. (c) Do not leave a new condenser or receiver, etc., lying around with the plug removed.

3.

(d) Discharge refrigerant from the charging valve before installing the new compressor. If the refrigerant is not discharged first, compressor oil will spray out with the refrigerant gas when the plug is r moved. (e) Do not use a burner for bending or lengthening operations on tubes. If tubes are heated with a burner, a layer of oxidation forms inside the tube, causing the same kind of trouble as an ac cumulation of dust. WHEN TIGHTENING CONNECTING PARTS; (a) Apply a few drops of compressor oil to Oring fittings for easy tightening and to prevent leaking of refrigerant gas. (b) Tighten the nut using two wrenches to avoid twisting the tube.

(e) Tighten the Oring fittings or the bolted type fittings to the specified torque. WHEN CONNECTING MANIFOLD GAUGE; (a) Be sure to connect the charging hose end with a pin to the compressor charging valve. (b) The letter D engraved near the compressor service valve indicates the high pressure side, and S indicates the low pressure side. Pay careful attention when connecting the hose. (c) Tighten hose by hand. (d) To prevent loosening of connected hose, do not apply drops of compressor oil to the seat of connection. HINT: After connecting the manifold gauge and the refrig erant container (service can), discharge any air in the hoses. WHEN EVACUATING; Approx. 15 minutes after removal, check the system for leaks, then take at least another 15 minutes to make sure the air is fully removed. WHEN HANDLING REFRIGERANT CONTAINER (SERVICE CAN); (a) Must never be heated. (b) Must be kept below 4WC (1 04F). (c) If warming service can with hot water, be careful that the valve on top of the service can is never immersed in the water, as the water may permeate into the refrigerant cycle. (d) Empty service cans must never be reused. WHEN A/C IS ON AND REFRIGERANT GAS IS BEING REPLENISHED; (a) If there is not enough refrigerant gas in the refrigerant cycle, oil lubrication becomes insufficient and compressor burnout may occur, so take care to avoid this. (b) If the valve on the high pressure side is opened, refrigerant flows in reverse and causes the service can to rupture, so only open and close the vlave on the low pressure side. (c) If the service can is inverted and refrigerant is inserted in a liquid state, the liquid is compressed and the compressor brakes down, so the refrigerant must be inserted in a gseous state. (d) Be careful not to insert too much refrigerant gas, as this causes trouble such as inadequate cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheat, etc. WHEN USING GASCYLINDER TYPE LEAK DETECTION INSTRUMENT; (a) As a naked flame is used, first make sure that there are no flammable substances nearby before using it. (b) Be careful, as poisonous gas is produced when refrigerant gas comes in contact with heat parts.

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM General Description

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
REFRIGERATION CYCLE
The compressor discharges high temperature and high pressure refrigerant containing the heat absorbed from the evaporator plus the heat created by the compressor in a discharge stroke. 2. This gaseous refrigerant flows into the condenser. In the condenser, the gaseous refrigerant condenses into liquid refrigerant. 3. This liquid refrigerant flows into the receiver which stores and filters the liquid refrigerant till the evaporator requires the ref rigerant. The liquid refrigerant is charged by the expansion valve into a low temperature, low pressure liquid and geseous mixture. This cold and foggy refrigerant flows to the evaporator. Vaporizing the liquid in the evaporator, the heat from the warm air stream passing through the evaporator core is transfered to the refrigerant. All the liquid is changed into geseous refrigerant in the evaporator and only heatladen geseous refrigerant is drawn into the compressor. Then the process is repeated again. 1.

Diagnosis Drier in oversaturated state

Remedy

(1)Replace receiver and drier Moisture in refrigeration (2)Remove moisture in cycle system freezes at expansion through repeated vacuum valve orifice and blocks purging circulation of refrigerant (3)Charge refrigerant to proper amount (1)Check with leak tester and repair (2)Charge refrigerant to proper amount

AC20
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM Troubleshooting

No.

Symptom seen in refrigeration system Vacuum indicated at low pressure side, very low pressure indicated at high pressure side Frost or dew seen on piping before and after receiver and drier or expansion valve

Probable cause Refrigerant flow obstructed by moisture or dirt in refrigerant freezing or adhering to expansion valve orifice

Refrigerant flow obstructed by gas leakage from expansion valve heat sensing tube

Remedy Allow to stand for some time and then restart operation to determine if trouble is caused by moisture or dirt. If caused by moisture refer to proceduresStep 2 on ,page AC19. If caused by dirt, remove expansion valve and clean off dirt by blowing with air. If unable to remove dirt, replace valve. Vacuum purge and charge new refrigerant to proper amount.
