Compressor Replacement
NOTE: Compressor failure can occur if the oil removed during refrigerant recovery is not replaced. The service compressor is shipped with 74 ml² (2.5 oz² ) or 40 ml² (1.4 oz² ) of PAG oil. Refer to the oil balance instructions for information regarding the specific service compressor oil charge.
Condenser Replacement	30 ml²	1.0 oz²
Evaporator Replacement	90 ml²	3.0 oz²
Any Line Set (Hose/Tube or Tube Assembly) Replacement	30 ml²	1.0 oz²
Total System PAG Oil Capacity	150.0 ml	5.1 oz
R-134a
Refrigerant Charge	0.68 kg	1.50 lb
¹ Abrupt refrigerant loss due to large leak, hose rupture, collision or pressure relief valve opening. Conditions that allow the refrigerant to seep or bleed off over time do not cause this oil loss. Upon replacement of a component that caused a large refrigerant loss, also add the required amount of oil for the particular component. ² If more than the specified amount of PAG oil was drained from a component, add the amount drained.
