3. Remove the mounting clamp.
4. Remove the receiver tank.
Installation
1. Position the receiver tank in the unit and install the
mounting clamp.
2. Connect the refrigerant lines to the receiver tank.
3. Pressurize the refrigeration system and check for leaks.
4. If no leaks are found, evacuate the system.
5. Recharge the unit.
HIGH PRESSURE CUTOUT AND
CONDENSER FAN PRESSURE SWITCHES
Removal
1. Remove the refrigerant charge.
2. Disconnect the wires and remove the switch.
Installation
1. Apply a refrigerant locktite to the threads of the switch.
2. Install and tighten the switch and reconnect the wires.
3. Pressurize the refrigeration system and test for leaks.

HOT GAS SOLENOID VALVE
NOTE: Valves that have nylon seats must be disassembled
before soldering.
Removal
1. Remove the refrigerant charge.
2. Remove the coil and disassemble the valve.
3. Unsolder the hot gas lines from the valve, and remove
the valve from the unit.
CAUTION: Use a heat sink to prevent
damaging the valve.
Installation
1. Clean the tubes for soldering.
2. Remove the coil, disassemble the valve, and place the
valve in position.
3. Solder the inlet and outlet connections. After the valve
cools, assemble the valve and install the coil.
CAUTION: Use a heat sink to prevent
damaging the valve.
4. Pressurize the refrigeration system and test for leaks.
5. If no leaks are found, evacuate the system.
6. Recharge the unit with the proper refrigerant.
LIQUID INJECTION SOLENOID VALVE
Removal
1. Pump down the low side and equalize the pressure to
slightly positive.
2. Remove the coil from the solenoid valve.
3. Remove the solenoid valve from the receiver tank.
Installation
1. Remove the coil from the solenoid valve.
2. Install the solenoid valve on the receiver tank.
3. Connect the refrigerant line to the solenoid valve.
