MAINTENANCE OF OIL LEVEL

The compressor oil circulates in the system together with the refrigerant. It is necessary to add oil to the compressor when replacing A/C system components or when a large amount of refrigerant leaks from the system. It is important to always maintain oil level within the specified level. Otherwise, the following conditions may occur.

  1. Insufficient oil amount: Stuck compressor
  2. Excessive oil amount: Insufficient cooling (caused by insufficient heat exchange) Name A/C System Oil Type: DH-PR
