Oil Reclaim Filters

The oil reclaim system has a strainer on the eductor suction line and a filter on the cooler

scavaging line. Replace these filters once per year, or more often if filter condition indicates a

need for more frequent replacement. Change these filters by transferring the refrigerant charge

to a storage vessel or the condenser.

Inspect Refrigerant Float System

Perform inspection every 5 years or when the condenser is opened for service. Transfer the

refrigerant into the cooler vessel or into a storage tank. Remove the float access cover. Clean

the chamber and valve assembly thoroughly. Be sure that the valve moves freely. Make sure

that all openings are free of obstructions. Examine the cover gasket and replace if necessary.

See

Figure 39

for views of both float valve designs. On the linear float valve design, inspect

orientation of the float slide pin. It must be pointed toward the bubbler tube for proper operation.

Inspect Relief Valves and Piping

The relief valves on this machine protect the system against the potentially dangerous

effects of overpressure. To ensure against damage to the equipment and possible injury to

personnel, these devices must be kept in peak operating condition.
