ACTION REQUIRED
Examine and adjust the thermostatic expansion
valves in the evaporators.
Adjust thermostatic expansion valves.
Check if the bulb is in contact with the suction line
and replace if necessary
Drain oil from evaporators.
Examine and clean filters in liquid line.
Check suction filter.
Adjust thermostatic expansion valves.
De-ice thermostatic expansion valve using warm
rags. If no improvement, change the thermostatic
expansion valve.
Check wiring and coil – replace if necessary
Charge the installation with refrigerant.
Clean or defrost evaporator.
Wait for confirmation
Change compressor
Clean the condenser. Check motor fans
Adjust
Set pressure valve at maximum
Maximum Safe Pressure, but take into account the
compressor limit.
Drain liquid into reservoir
Let air out at highest point.
Adjust pressure switch
Adjust thermostatic expansion valves.
Check compressor
Check and adjust thermostatic expansion valves
Check pressures. If necessary, adjust valves and
gaskets.
Replace heater
Adjust thermostatic expansion valve
Replace, repair or re-set
Replace, repair or re-set.
Check thermostatic expansion valve.
Check bulb position
