Triple Evacuation Procedure
On Multi F MAX systems, after the leak / pressure check is complete, the triple evacuation
procedure must be performed to the refrigerant piping and all connected indoor units /
branch distribution units.
Do not just perform the deep evacuation procedure on Multi F
MAX systems. The deep evacuation procedure is insufficient to fully evacuate the extensive
piping systems on Multi F MAX products. Triple evacuation must be performed through the Schrader ports on the outdoor unit service ports.
before operating the system.
• Evacuate through both the liquid and gas (vapor) suction Schrader ports on the outdoor unit service ports.
• The outdoor unit service valves must remain closed and the stem head access caps tight.
and release the factory refrigerant charge until trim charge is complete, and the system is ready to operate.
• Any field-installed ball valves in the refrigerant system (if used) must be open to ensure all piping is free and clear for evacuation on all
piping and connected indoor units / branch distribution units.
•
Do not apply power to the system before performing the evacuation procedure. There is a possibility that the EEV valve will close and
•
Never perform evacuation using refrigerant.
•
•
• Subsequent oil changes will be necessary after several hours of continuous operation; have extra oil on hand.
• Use a quality micron gauge in good operating order and install as far away from pump as possible.
