and feeder tube going into outdoor coil. At the end of the one of
the feeder tubes, there is a 3/8 in. O.D. stub tube approximately 2

Always break a vacuum with dry

Deep Vacuum Method
The deep vacuum
method requires a vacuum
pump capable of
pulling a vacuum of 500 nficrons and a vacuum gage capable of
accurately measuring this vacuum depth. The deep vacuum method
is the most positive way of assuring a system is free of air and

(R-410A)

QUICK

REFERENCE

GUIDE

• Puron refrigerant operates at 50-70 percent higher pressures than R-22. Be sure that servicing equipment and replacement
components are designed to operate with Puron
• Puron refrigerant cylinders are rose colored.
• Recovery cylinder service pressure rating must be 400 psig, DOT 4BA400 or DOT BW400.
• Puron systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device in the manifold hose when
charging into suction line with compressor operating
• Manifold sets should be 700 psig high side and 180 psig low side with 550 psig low-side retard.
• Use hoses with 700 psig service pressure rating.
• Leak detectors should be designed to detect HFC refrigerant.
• Puron, as with other HFCs, is only compatible with POE oils.
• Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from oil.
• Do not use liquid-line filter driers with rated working pressures less than 600 psig.
• Do not leave Puron suction line filter driers in line longer than 72 hours.
• Do not install a suction-line

filter drier in liquid line.

• POE oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere.
• POE oils may cause damage to certain plastics and roofing materials.
• Wrap all filter driers and service valves with wet cloth when brazing.
• A factory approved liquid-line filter drier is required on every unit.
• Do NOT use an R-22 TXV.
• If indoor unit is equipped with an R-22 TXV or piston metering device, it must be changed to a hard shutoff Puron TXV.
• Never open system to atmosphere while it is under a vacuum.
• When system must be opened for service, recover refrigerant, evacuate then break vacuum with dry nitrogen and replace filter
driers. Evacuate to 500 microns prior to recharging.
• Do not vent Puron into the atmosphere.
• Do not use capillary tube coils.
• Observe all warnings, cautions, and bold text.
• All indoor coils must be installed with a hard shutoff Puron TXV metering device.
