'Fully' hermitic compressors: How to charge and recover?
'Fully' hermitic compressors: How to charge and recover?
(OP)
I have only used commericial compressors with valves attached to the suction and discharge lines, where the hoses of a manifold gauge can be attached and can therefore read the pressures in the system.
Problem: with a fully hermatic compressor there are no such valves, so I can not attach the gauges. Can some engineer let me know how to recover and charge from these compressors? What equipment to use to do this?

Generally there is a takeoff tube in the suction pipe to the compressor which is pinched after gascharging. You can cut open that and can provide a valve.
