- Recovered refrigerant into certified cylinder for storage on site.
- Weighed and confirmed the charge.
- Pressure tested with OFN (oxygen free nitrogen) to locate any possible leak.
- Removed redundant H.P. switch from circuit 2 and replaced with a Schrader fitting.
- Replaced single core drier.
- Re pressure tested.
- Once proved released OFN (oxygen free nitrogen) to atmosphere and evacuated system to a minimum of 2 Torr.
