Method to clean the refrigerant container

Hello everyone!

On this occasion I want to share with you, something that I learned recently in a mechanic workshop while repairing my car.

It consists of two methods to clean the refrigerant expansion container, that is, where we verph at the level of the same.

With the passing of time and with changes of refrigerant-water-refrigerant, it generates oxide and dirt residues that adhere throughout the refrigeration system and of course in the container, making it impossible in some extreme cases to verify the level of the liquid.

When this happens, it should be done as follows.

Removing the refrigeration system recups.
METHOD 1:
Using water-jabon water and sand or sand. Add the mixture in the container and shake it, perform the operation 3 times or until it is observed clean.

METHOD 2: If with method 1 it is not enough to clean the container, proceed as follows:
In a pot add water and creol in a concentration of 70 and 30% respectively, completely submerge the container and heat it for 15 to 20min. You can use your kitchen.

Stir shaking the container without taking it out while it "cooks". Thus it is guaranteed to remove all the dirt attached.

Then clean with dislewer to finish removing the recurrers who are left and finally clean it with soap and water.

This achieves uniform cleaning.
