Installation and maintenance to be performed only by qualified of the equipment and all applicable national and local codes. personnel who are familiar with this type of equipment. 4. Avoid contact with sharp edges and coil surfaces. 2. Some units are pressurized with dry air or inert gas. They are a potential injury hazard. All units must be evacuated before charging the system with refrige

Refrigeration Oils* Oil Types With the changes that have taken place in our industry due to the CFC Table 2 below summarizes which oils/lubricants are approved for use in issue, we have reevaluated our lubricants to ensure compatibility with the Copeland compressors. new HFC refrigerants and HCFC interim blends offered by several chemical Mineral Oils producers. As a secondary criteria, it is also desirable that any new lubricant be compatible with the traditional refrigerants such as HCFC-2

Check Out and Start Up After the installation has been completed, the following points should be covered before the system is placed in operation: a) Check all electrical and refrigerant connections. Be sure they are all tight. b) Observe compressor oil level before start-up. The oil level should be at or slightly above the 1/4 level of the sight glass. Refer to Table 3 for proper compressor oil. c) Remove upper mounting nuts on the compressor feet. Remove the shipping spacer
