O-Ring Seals For Refrigerant Circuit
-
Always use O-rings only once, replace.
-
Coat O-ring seals with refrigerant oil before inserting.
-
Make sure O-rings are seated properly on pipe or in groove.

Perform work free of contamination (even the smallest deposit e.g. a hair, may lead to a leak).
NOTE:
-
Install only O-rings that are resistant to refrigerant R134a and corresponding refrigerant oil. These O-rings are color coded to avoid mistakes
(currently "red", "light purple" and "dark purple" ).

The O-ring dimensions - a - and - b - are different depending on installation location
-
In addition to the color-coded O-rings, black O-rings are also used in production for certain connections.
