I have a 4 doors Samsung refrigerator, and it’s not cold on the fridge side. I open the evaporator cover, and I found out that the evaporator has ice on it. I have replaced 2 sensors and a fan, but it still has the same problem. I decided to call Sears, 2 techs came out to check. They told me that its a 600 refrigerant, its very flammable. I asked them to see if they can fix it, they said they don’t have the equipment. I told them that I can order the compressor at Sears DIY website. 1 tech said the equipment is back order. I then asked them can you convert it into 134A or R12, they told me no. I wish you are closer to my place. I love your video. Thanks sir!
You also need an unopened filter-dryer. It needs to be removed, brazed in. Cooled. Vacuumed. Charged with (R600 was it?). The system is designed mathematically for a specific refigerant.... the length of the capillary tube and everything are by design. Flammable gas.
excellent work, Mr. Nel, I'm sure you've heard about the concept of restriction that causes by Capillary tube some HVAC engineers say: it's 300psi Max. for R600 and 240 PSI Max. for r12 I think that was the reason for the overheating of the motor and the filter.. Thank you
R12 gas is banned in my country due to its damage effect on the environment. It is totally unexceptable to flash and allow this gas into the atmosphere.
love your video's. I learn something every time I watch them. The condenser you added on, is it hooked into the original condenser . Also, does the r-12 and r-600 compressors have similar running amps. Thanks for the video
I link the 2 condensers together to make 1 large condenser. Any domestic fridge with a compressor less than 250 Watt, you wont notice a difference on running amperage
Using R12 is forbidden. Have you ever heard of ozone depletion and montreal protocol? In general: changing the refigerant requires the adaption of capillar tube, condenser and evaporator. You should evacuate the system and use dry nitrogen before brazing. Also the pressure test and the check of tightness are missing. Sorry, but your work is bad.
It's all about bussiness, chlorine is everywhere; it evaporates from the salts of the oceans and volcanos. Ozone is regenerated when and electric stom arrives, electrolisis process happens and turns O2 (oxigen) to O3 (ozone) end of montreal bussiness and this flammable refrigerants.
@@Berni0707 Lol, that is NOT how it works, chloride is a whole different kind of substance than chlorine gas. In almost all countries R12 is banned since the 2000s, since it is the worst gas for the ozone layer, it was even used as a propellant in spray cans. These substances really destroyed the ozone layer much faster than lightning, and that is not electrolysis but the crazy high temperature of lightning bolts that creates free radicals to convert oxygen molecules to ozone. There are so much things wrong in this video, the capillary tube and dryer should be changed so there is no moisture and the pressures are correct for R12/R134a, the oil and compressor must be compatible with R12, flushing with R12 is extremely dumb, heating it creates phosgene, you should use nitrogen and then pull a vacuum to remove all the moisture and air in the system.
I blew the system through with a little bit of R12 not Dry nitrogen purely because the pressure of dry nitrogen could rupture the internal evaporator. They rupture at about 150 psi.
JDNelRefrigeration You're obviously a smart guy, so please try and find something less damaging for your descendants than R12 for purging! GWP of 2400 and also Ozone depleting. In a lot of the world you'd face stiff fines for doing that...
You seem to be very knowledgeable. I am also a hvac tech. I had very little experience on capillarytube systems. I normally work with larger systems and eevs and txvs. But i recently diagnosed a capillary tube system. I noticed ice on the capillarytube like 1 feet or more from the end. Can low refrigerant cause this? could not find leak. My conlusion was a restriction by dirt or moisture. I took out the refrigerant, flushed with nitrogen, pulled a good vaccum, and recharged. After the procedure the machine worked great again( no ice on the outside of capillary anymore. Am i wrong if Ì say the if the capillarytube has ice far back. there is a restriction by moisture or dirt. Or could low refrigerant cause ice on the outside of capillary aswell?.
On a capillary system that is warm and you are just starting off, you do get ice forming on the outside of the capillary for the first few minutes, but as soon as the fridge is cold that ice should disappear. A restriction in your dryer will cause the capillary to form ice as well as you rightfully diagnosed.
Watching from the US. You mean you converted R600A to R12? You're my HERO, I can't tell you how much I hate R600a units. However, the government here is phasing out R12 refrigerants, hard to find these days.
Using R12 as a drying gas?? Expensive, hazardous and not very green. Why not nitrogen instead? Also brazing with R12 in the system can generate phosgene gas. Just curious... how expensive is R12 there? Here that jug is worth like $600.
@@JDNelRefrigeration That's awesome... that stuff is probably worth more than the fridge your putting it in (In the US anyway... $600 to $700 US a jug....) Similar market in South Africa?
Sir, I need your opinii:Lately, when I repair a fridges with a hole in the coil(it is about R600a fridges), after a period from the repair, the compresors fail, too. Did You notice Something Like that in your practice?
Yes, I think when the fridge loses all its gas the compressor keeps on sucking air in through the puncture where the gas leak is, and builds up a tremendously high highside pressure, which damages the compressor. Especially on R600 systems where the compressor is designed to pump a very low pressure gas.
My goodness, R-600 systems are extremely flammable, that is the reason why you do not braze on any R-600 systems. You suppose to use lock rings technique to do all of the seal system joints! You will get someone killed by watching this video.
You don't need to change the oil but r600 capillary is much smaller than r134a so if you can change it, yes, also 134a needs a bigger condenser. If you can, add extra condenser. The bigger the fridge, the bigger the difference. On very small bar fridges you can use the same condenser and capillary.
I accidentally broke a 3/16 pipe from the compressor of my kegarator, the gas leaked out, Inleft it outside for about two weeks now. I am sure I can braze the pipe back into the compressor port (after removing the little piece that was left), my only concern is: do you think that all remaining r600a has been evacuated from the system? When full it has like 1.5 oz
Blow another type of gas through the system, That will flush all the R600 out. Yes, they do weld successfully I have done hundreds of them through the years. Clean all the paint off with a wire brush attached to your drill then use a silver solder with a high silver content and a very big flame.
@@JDNelRefrigeration thank you so much! If I am getting it right, even though the mini fridge has been outside with the broken and separated pipe for two weeks, there is still r600a in the system? That is why I need to blow it out with other type of gas
Sir i have a small domestic frezer size around 100L the compresor is dead it runs on R12 .I have a second hand good compresor but what refrigirant should i put in cause R12 is baned .I have R600a and R134 .On wich refrigerant schould i do the conversion .
What you did here was extremely dangerous.....R600 gas is highly flammable and why didn't you cut all the lines to ensure all the gas was drained from the system before you introduced your naked flame.....
I like most of your videos but this was not very good. Dont convert the fridges to any other refrigerant. There is no need to. Vacuum your system before disconnecting any pipes. Weigh in your charge its much easier.
If we cut a piece of the capillary off to replace the pencil dryer, the volume of the system will be smaller than before and if we put a measured amount of gas in it will have an over charge.
No, they do not use the same oil. R600 uses a mineral oil while R134a polyolester oil. Plus a machine compressor should never be changed from one type of refrigerant to another without also changing out the condenser too to the correct specs.
Removing r600 compressor and replace with r12 LOL. Not pulling vacuum to remove the 600 very dumb. This unit is not going to last long. R600 cap tube not the same as r12-134a cap tube. R600 runs in a vacuum psi. If his insurance company see this video lord help him. Do not replace r600 with r134 compressor.
3 years later and the fridge is still running beautifully. On a small bar fridge like that the difference in capillary size between 600 & 12 is minute but on a larger fridge it makes a huge difference.
@@JDNelRefrigeration with the added cond. not up on the captube size. But I know if you never try thing you never know what will work. Like using 404a for r22, I change a r12 2door freezer with r22 @ 125 head it still running been over 7 yrs now.
@tonymartin i have pulled a vacuum and have had r600 trapped in a restricted area, and blow up in my face… some times vacuums don’t work. And he is burning the gas… oil industry does this all the time.
An open flame with r600(basically propane)? Sooooo dangerous. And not a good idea to switch refrigerants. You also want to scale in the new refrigerant...
@@JDNelRefrigeration You could probably make some serious cash selling those on Ebay. Nice work on the fridge. Don't listen to the haters. You got it running and that's what matters.

@@JDNelRefrigeration There is an underground market in the US for it. Which I don't know why because like he said you can just use propane. Some old cars still have original r12 compressors and people pay $200 to get them charged.
@@toddt6730 Not so. He had things under perfect control, as he had already removed the R600 gas, and all that was left was residue. He's performed this procedure many times, and knew exactly what he was doing! Thanks for the video sir.
Good thing you aren’t in America. That is $20,000 fine for the two types of refrigeration you just felt let out of the system. You are supposed to blow the system with nitrogen. Not R12 Freon. You have no idea what your doing.. I have years of certified training and certification.
JDNelRefrigeration it got released into the air and now the world is melting because of it... I’m not a “save the world” “global warming is going to kill us” nut job, but I know science. Refrigerants such as the one in the video destroy ozone. No way around it
@@AAAA-oe4ii The difference is that volcanoes release water soluble chlorine compounds released by volcanoes (Mostly Hydrocloric Acid) vs CFC's such as R12, R22. For example, HCL has a water solubility of around 720g/L at 20C... R12 has a water solubility of 0.286 g/L @ 20C. i.e. chlorine from Volcanoes gets absorbed by water vapor and falls to the earth as acid rain. chlorine from R12 doesn't. so R12 has a much higher probability of reaching the ozone layer than volcanic compounds.

By changing the refrigerant, you will not solve the problem of over icing on your evaporator coil.

The best idea is to purge the entire system with nitrogen before you bring your torch in there and blow things up
Yes, Good idea
'And blow things up' hahahah
Nothing blew up. It was all controlled. You're the stiff that's blowing up. Welcome to how actually gets done
R12 is still my favourite gas to work with in refrigerators but its now banned in my country.
You are supposed to blow the lines out with nitrogen multiple times before you attempt to add heat.
No nitrogen purge? What a mess.This guy is the biggest hack I have ever seen.🤣

@@toddt6730 Not so. He had things under perfect control, as he had already removed the R600 gas, and all that was left was residue. He's performed this procedure many times, and knew exactly what he was doing! Thanks for the video sir.
THERE IS A LOT OF WRONG GOING ON HERE.
Good thing you aren’t in America. That is $20,000 fine for the two types of refrigeration you just felt let out of the system. You are supposed to blow the system with nitrogen. Not R12 Freon. You have no idea what your doing.. I have years of certified training and certification.
What do you think happened to all the SO2 and Metal chloride before R12 was introduced?
JDNelRefrigeration it got released into the air and now the world is melting because of it... I’m not a “save the world” “global warming is going to kill us” nut job, but I know science. Refrigerants such as the one in the video destroy ozone. No way around it
Actually I they upped the fine to $44,539 per day per violation. And... There's a $10,000 reward for someone to turn you in.
What about chlorine released when volcanoes erupt, r-12 and r-22 are the gold standard in refrigeration.
@@AAAA-oe4ii The difference is that volcanoes release water soluble chlorine compounds released by volcanoes (Mostly Hydrocloric Acid) vs CFC's such as R12, R22. For example, HCL has a water solubility of around 720g/L at 20C... R12 has a water solubility of 0.286 g/L @ 20C. i.e. chlorine from Volcanoes gets absorbed by water vapor and falls to the earth as acid rain. chlorine from R12 doesn't. so R12 has a much higher probability of reaching the ozone layer than volcanic compounds.
I'm not sure what I've just watched 😂😂😂 someone's not evolved with the trade and modern standards and safe practices , literally a "how not to" video 😂😂
Bullshite! You modern pansy...he just shows you how it can be done!
Modern junk
Trying to tell this donut of the effects on the environment using Dichlorodifluoromethane is like talking to a brick wall.
