Proper refrigerant charge is essential to proper unit operation.
Operating a unit with an improper refrigerant charge will

Accordingly, the use of proper charging methods during
servicing will insure that the unit is functioning as designed
and that its compressor will not be damaged.

(if not worse) than not enough refrigerant (undercharge). They
both can be the source of certain compressor failures if they
remain uncorrected for any period of time. Quite often, other

misdiagnosed as refrigerant charge problems. The refrigerant
circuit diagnosis chart will assist you in properly diagnosing
these systems.
An overcharged unit will at times return liquid refrigerant
(slugging) back to the suction side of the compressor eventually
causing a mechanical failure within the compressor. This
mechanical failure can manifest itself as valve failure, bearing

and the length of time the slugging continues.
Not enough refrigerant (undercharge) on the other hand,
will cause the temperature of the suction gas to increase to

compressor motor. When this occurs, the motor winding
temperature will increase causing the motor to overheat
and possibly cycle open the compressor overload protector.
Continued overheating of the motor windings and/or cycling
of the overload will eventually lead to compressor motor or
overload failure.
Sealed Refrigeration System contains refrigerant
and oil under high pressure.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be worn
when working with refrigerants.
Failure to follow these procedures could

2. Evacuation from both the high side and low side of the
system simultaneously.
3. Introducing refrigerant charge into high side of the

4. Accurately weighing the refrigerant charge introduced
into the system.
Refrigerant Charging
NOTE: Because the KuhlQ system is a sealed system,
service process tubes will have to be installed. First install a
line tap and remove refrigerant from system. Make necessary
sealed system repairs and vacuum system. Crimp process
tube line and solder end shut. Do not leave a service valve in
the sealed system.
