Default AC Condenser replacement, oil amount?

So I need to replace my ac condenser, anyone know how much ac oil must be added to the replacement unit?

I'm doing the mechanical stuff myself then will take it to a near by shop to vacuum and charge the system.

You first have to know if the new condenser is factory oil prefilled. It should have about 25 ml or .833 fluid oz. (including the dryer)
Or, after you have drained everything, measure the amount of oil that came out and add in the same when refilling.
