4. Installationsvejledning

Proper installation is critical for a leak-free repair. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Forberedelse: Identify the damaged section of the 5/8 inch aluminum A/C line. Ensure sufficient access and working space around the repair area.
2. Cut the Line: Using a close-quarters pipe cutter designed for the correct diameter (5/8 inch), carefully cut out the damaged section of the A/C line. Ensure the cuts are clean, straight, and free of burrs or sharp edges. Deburr and lightly sand the cut ends of the aluminum tubing to ensure a smooth surface for sealing.
3. Clean the Line: Thoroughly clean the interior and exterior of the cut line ends to remove any debris or contaminants.
4. Smør pakninger: Apply a small amount of mineral oil or PAG/refrigerant oil to the rubber seals (O-rings) within the splice assembly. This aids in proper seating and prevents damage during installation.
5. Assemble the Splice: Carefully insert the prepared ends of the A/C line into the Dorman 800-640 Line Splice. Ensure the lines are straight and perfectly aligned with the splice. One of the two tubes being spliced must have sufficient movement (at least 1-2 inches) to allow for proper assembly.
6. Spænd forbindelser: Use appropriate wrenches (e.g., 25mm or 1 inch) to securely tighten the splice connections. Apply firm, even pressure. Be cautious not to overtighten, as aluminum threads can be prone to cross-threading if not perfectly square. Ensure the rubber seals are properly seated and not pinched.
7. System Recharge: After installation, the A/C system must be properly evacuated and recharged with the correct refrigerant according to vehicle manufacturer specifications.
8. Lækagetest: Perform a thorough leak test using appropriate methods (e.g., vacuum test, leak detection dye, or electronic leak detector) to confirm the integrity of the repair before operating the A/C system.
