Refrigerant compaticilty is about suiting the refrigerant to your refrigerant system. Every cooling system has refrigerant in it which depends on the type of system you use. If the refrigerant not matches with your system, it wont work. This is refrigerant compatibility.
Have dye added to the a/c system run system for a couple of days then check all lines and fittings under a uv light.
To endure that the ONLY gas in the system is refrigerant.
Liquid refrigerant charging of a system is normally accomplished in the liquid line. For example, when a system is out of refrigerant, liquid refrigerant can be charged into the king valve on the liquid line or receiver.
A typical residential HVAC unit contains around 4-10 pounds of HFC-134a refrigerant, depending on the system size and capacity. Commercial HVAC units may contain more refrigerant.
Liquid
The two basic ways are: 1. charge the system with refrigerant containing a tracer dye, then use an ultraviolet lamp to find the dye at the leak point. 2. use an electronic leak detector, commonly called a 'sniffer' to find the leak. Pressures in an air conditioner can be dangerous. Working on the system requires specialized knowledge. Get some help from an experienced refrigeration tech.
There are 2 , common, ways to detect leaks. An electronic leak detector and dye. Sometimes both are needed. Of course the system has to be full of freon to for the dye to leak out or for an electronic detector to find a leak (just like finding an air leak in a tire). If the leak is at a connection, you may be able to just replace O rings, if a component (Like the compressor, condensor, evaporator) is leaking it will need replaced. If the system has freon in it, the law says to recover it with a recovery machine. There are 2 , common, ways to detect leaks. An electronic leak detector and dye. Sometimes both are needed.

Restricting liquid refrigerant when charging a refrigeration system means controlling the flow of refrigerant to ensure only vapor enters the system. This is important because introducing liquid refrigerant can lead to compressor damage or poor system performance. The proper method is to add refrigerant in vapor form to prevent liquid slugging and ensure efficient operation.
