Bitzer Refrigeration Liquid Receiver FS102

Verify the following components were tested in the factory as a single part

Test the tightness of the connections and pipe works after installation

Test the refrigerant circuit for tightness according to EN378-2 or equivalent standards

Enter the overpressure applied during the test (preferably using dry nitrogen)

Did the pressure applied during the test exceed the maximum permitted values?

Enter the test pressure (1.1-fold of the maximum allowable pressure) as per the name plate

4.7 Mounting included accessory

Fit the accessories best before commissioning.

Check connection positions for the included accessory in chapter Connections, page 38.

Check tightening torques of screws in chapter Mind when mounting or replacing, page 54 and following chapters.

After mounting, check pressure equipment for tightness.

Shut off all inlets and outlets of the pressure equipment into which something is to be installed.

Depressurise the pressure equipment.

Open all shut-off valves and solenoid valves

Evacuate the entire system using a vacuum pump

Check if 'standing vacuum' is lower than 1.5 mbar

Risk of damage to the motor and compressor

Ensure compressor is not started while in a vacuum

Ensure no voltage is applied to the compressor

Check for blocked components and pipes

Ensure sufficient volume above the liquids

Verify use of permitted refrigerants

Measure out precise quantities of refrigerant

Keep the oil temperature above 40°C

Charge the condenser or receiver directly with liquid refrigerant

Ensure blends are taken out of the charging cylinder as a bubble-free liquid

Add refrigerant on the suction side while the compressor is running

Check for abnormal vibrations in the system, particularly the pipelines and capillary tubes.

Were additional safety measures required due to vibrations?

Ensure pipes are connected to the pressure equipment without load and stress to avoid mechanical stress.
