The compressor installation is now done. Installation is successful and I have nice cold air coming out at 6 degrees C.

It might come pre-charged with desiccant but that doesn't help if I can't get the old condenser off to install the new one.

I have a new brainwave to research: If the desiccant adsorption process ...
