Well done Luke, glad to see you've got it finished .

I agree with 4Qman too, you must have been so annoyed with that leak!

And also, what was the final gas mix?

Final gases blend :

I stage -- R290/R22/R23 + small bit of CO2

Don't forget that good book, so you understand thermodynamics & refrigeration basic principles. I already gave away all the editions I didn't need. "modern refrigeration and air conditioning" can be found worldwide as just about every college uses it and the military uses it no matter if you a maintenance man or work as a tech-e on F-16's or any other jet.As you need to start with basic thermodynamics to work on just about any piece of modern equipment.

Ebay, used book stores ,college book store exchanges are good places to find used ones ,A new edition I,m guessing is about $80.00 . I would say get at least a 1980 or newer edition. the older editions cover all the basics but will not mention the newer gases & such.The basics of thermodynamics ,compressors ,gases, electrical & mechanics of refrigeration don't change.This is a good first book to cover what is done in this forum.

You can have all the newest ,best gauges ,meters & test equipment,BUT the information they give don't mean jack sh*t if you don't understand how to interrupt all the information correctly

just a few currently on ebay:

As it is awfully expensive you might consider ebay

$5 is much better than $72 :p

but I must find that book in polish language, because there is too many words that I won`t understand. I will search it.

From Danfoss A/S shop where I`m buying parts, they want to send me on educational program for employee, maybe this will be true

I,ve got the book to (on recommendation of walt), but although I,m dutch i really don,t have any problems reading it. Its so easy to understand and I already learned alot of new things. Also alot of information on this forum isn,t correct (compared to the book, but I guess the book is right). Also it might be even easy,er to understand the book in english then in your own language caus most technical hvac words I only know in english and not in dutch if there is a word for it at all.

It has become my new bible

[jinu117]

Go for it on danfoss one. They are quite good over all. Some nomenclature expects you to know the stuff already but I am sure you probably know most already :0

Hey, last update by me in this thread.


Quick decision, I with my gf went to Piotres, who lives 200km from my living place to charge unit with ethylene. We arrived at 22PM, quick vacuum, charging and calibrating. We were back at 3AM...and Martha at 6AM has gone to school and I packed unit.

Big thanks to my Marta, because only she wanted take me to Piotres, we risked a lot, because she passed practical driving exam few days ago, but waiting for driving license...so we go to piotres without it, but everything was OK ! Second big thanks must go to Piotres, because he helped me a lot, he borrow me ethylene whenever I want, for free. BIG THANKS :***
