Vaporizing the refrigerant
Vaporizing the 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.
if system is empty, u need to charge with correct amount of oil and refrigerant. the oil actually carries the refrigerant in the system if just recharging, buy the refrigerant that has oil already added, these are available at most auto stores
Liquid
It means charging the A/C system with the proper kind and amount of refrigerant + oil. Overcharging the system will damage the compressor.
To endure that the ONLY gas in the system is refrigerant.
When changing liquid refrigerant into a system
The King valve is closed, starving the low pressure side, creating more vacuum while charging with a liquid
Low
They are more difficult to use when charging refrigerant into a system and more calculations are necessary to determine the amount of refrigerant charged.
Bleed off some of the refrigerant to get the system pressure down, then wait a while until any liquid refrigerant in the compressor has time to leak into the refrigerant loop. It may take a few minutes; since the compressor valves seal imperfectly, pressures will eventually equalize and it should be possible to start up the compressor again.
