Faulty Compression of Compressor
1. Symptoms seen in refrigerating cycle
- LO pressure side (1) pressure too high : 0.39 to 0.59 MPa (4 to
6 kgf/cm
2
, 56.9 to 85.3 psi)
- HI pressure side (2) pressure too low : 0.69 to 0.98 MPa (7 to
10 kgf/cm
2
, 99.6 to 142.2 psi)
2. Probable cause
- Leak in compressor.
3. Solution
- Replace compressor. (See page 10-S30.)

compressing by compressor.

[2] DISCHARGING EVACUATING AND CHARGING
• When discharging, evacuating or charging the refrigerating system, be sure to observe the “PRECAUTION
AT REPAIRING REFRIGERANT CYCLE”. (See page 10-S9.)
(1) Discharging the System
Prepare for the R134a refrigerant recovery and recycling
machine.
1. Connect low pressure side hose (blue) from the recovery and
recycling machine to LO pressure side charging valve (2) on the
compressor (3). Connect high pressure side hose (red) to HI
pressure side charging valve (1) on the compressor (3).
2. Follow the manufacturers instructions and discharge the system.
• Use only R134a refrigerant recovery and recycling machine.
Eliminate mixing R134a equipment, refrigerant, and
refrigerant oils with R12 systems to prevent compressor
damage.
CAUTION
• Protect fingers with cloth against frostbite by refrigerant
when disconnecting the hose to the charging valve.
