Refrigerant repair proceduresOverview:3.1.1. Refrigerant piping handling• Make sure the applied pressure is never higher than the unit design pressure as indicated on the nameplate (PS).• Work according the F-gas regulation and/or local regulations.• Make sure the correct amount according the F-gas regulation label on the unit (factory + additional where required) ofrefrigerant is charged after repair.• Make sure to use the appropriate equipment and tools according to the refrigerant and unit type.• Charge non-azeotropic refrigerant (e.g. R-410A) always in a liquid state.• R32 can be charged in gas phase.• Make sure to use a digital scale (no charging cylinder).• Execute correct vacuum drying procedure after repair work:- -0,1 MPa / -760 mmHg / -750 Torr / -1 bar for at least 1 hour.- Connect the unit according the available service ports, refer to "Recovery procedure" on page 61.- Use related field setting where necessary to open expansion valve/solenoid valve.3.1.2. Recovery procedure3.1.2.1. Outdoor unit casing1. Switch off the Daikin unit via the user interface.2. Manually open the expansion valve (located on the outdoor unit).3.
