VALVES MUST 
REMAIN CLOSED AND 
BE PROTECTED FROM 
HEAT WHEN BRAZING 
(WRAP WITH WET 
RAG)
Step 3  Pressure Test and Evacuate Line Set 
and CVD Condensing Unit.
•  Shutoff valves for the line set must 
remain closed until pressure testing and 
evacuation are complete.
•  Valve core removal tools that allow for 
removal and installation of the valve 
cores without removing hoses for the 
manifold gauge set are recommended to 
decrease the evacuation time.
•  Pressure test at 150 psi (1000 kPa) for a 
minimum of 15 minutes.
•  Minimum evacuation level is 500 
microns. 
Pressure test the line sets and CVD 
Condensing Unit with 150 psi (1000 kPa) of 
dry nitrogen. Add nitrogen at the shutoff 
valves for the line set located at the back 
of the ice machine head section or from 
the access valves located in the CVD 
Condensing Unit. Complete the pressure 
test, verify no leaks are present and remove 
the nitrogen from the system before 
connecting the vacuum pump. Connect 
vacuum pump and evacuate system to 500 
microns.
