R07 -- Control of Moisture and Other Contaminants in Refrigeration - (SI)

Moisture (water) is an important and universal contaminant in refrigeration systems. The amount of moisture in a refrigerant system must be kept below an allowable maximum for satisfactory operation, efficiency, and longevity. Moisture must be removed from components during manufacture, assembly, and service to minimize the amount of moisture in the completed system. Any moisture that enters during installation or servicing should be removed promptly.
