Manifold Gauge Set (Refrigerant)
Remove charging hoses properly. A low system charge will result from charging hoses that are not removed correctly. In order to ensure accuracy of the refrigerant charge, the refrigerant should be removed from the charging hoses. Refer to the following steps in order to remove the refrigerant from the charging hoses:
1. Allow the compressor to continue operating. Close the valve on the high pressure side. The valve is located near the charging ports on the compressor. Disconnect the high pressure hose from the air conditioning system.
2. Open the high pressure valve and open the low pressure valve at the gauge set . The refrigerant that is in the hoses will be removed by the compressor through the low pressure hose.
3. Close the valve on the low pressure side. This valve is located near the charging ports on the compressor. Disconnect the low pressure hose from the air conditioning system. The system is now charged.
Note: After the manifold gauge set is removed, it is necessary to cap the charging valves.
