Refrigerant Oil: Service and Repair

A new compressor is supplied filled with a full charge of (X cubic cm) of refrigerant oil.

A new compressor is supplied with an oil fill (X cm) of 120 cubic cm.

A calculated quantity of oil must be drained from the new compressor before fitting. To calculate the quantity of oil to be drained:

1

Remove the drain plug from the old compressor.

2

Invert the compressor and gravity drain the oil into a calibrated measuring cylinder. Rotate the compressor clutch to ensure the compressor is
completely drained.

3

Note the quantity of oil drained (Y cubic cm).

4

Calculate the quantity of oil to be drained from the new compressor using the following formula:
X. cubic cm - (Y cubic cm + 20 cubic cm) Q cubic cm

5

Remove the drain plug from the new compressor and drain Q cubic cm of oil.

6

Fit and tighten the compressor drain plug.

System components

When renewing system components, add the following quantities of refrigerant oil:

-

Condenser

= 40 cubic cm

-

Evaporator

= 30 cubic cm

-

Receiver drier= 15 cubic cm

-

Pipe or hose =
