Check air conditioning system for leakage - AR83.30-P-1761LF

MODEL 217, 222 

DANGER Risk of explosion  when using a forming gas with incorrect mixing ratio. Risk of suffocation  due to inhalation of forming gas. Risk of injury due to bursting of high-pressure hoses. Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. No smoking or open flames. Work in well-ventilated rooms only. AS83.00-Z-0001-02A
NOTES Procedure for a damaged or leaky air conditioning system   AH83.30-N-0004-01A
INSPECT Check     
1 Evacuate air conditioning system   AR83.30-P-1760LF 
2 Preliminary test for pressure drop test Model 217
with code 1U6 (R744 refrigerant)
 
REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 00 588 19 21 00 Leak tester   WS83.00-P-0035B 
    IMPORTANT Pay attention to the leak tester operator's manual.
IMPORTANT Do not fill air conditioning system with forming gas unless engine is cold.
Preliminary test for pressure drop test
*BE83.30-P-1002-04A 
3 Fill air conditioning with forming gas and check pressure drop    
REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 000 588 19 21 00 Leak tester   WS83.00-P-0035B 
    IMPORTANT Pay attention to the leak tester operator's manual.
IMPORTANT Do not fill air conditioning system with forming gas unless engine is cold.
IMPORTANT Temperature changes during the pressure test (e.g. through change in weather or cooling down of the engine compartment overnight) can cause pressure surges.
Consistent ambient conditions must therefore be strictly ensured.

4 Check for leaks in air conditioning system using gas detection unit If no pressure drop was detected.  
REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 000 588 03 21 00 Gas detector IMPORTANT Pay attention to the operator's manual of the leak tester and the gas detection unit.
In the event of leakage

Replace damaged components of the air conditioning system.
