CONNECTING REFRIGERANT PIPING (Cont.)
16-11 STEPS OF CONNECTING REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES TO INDOOR UNIT
Connecting gas and liquid piping lines
respectively with gas and liquid half
unions of indoor unit.
A. Lubricate flare nuts of gas and liquid piping
line end and the threads of the gas and liquid
half unions of indoor unit with anti – freeze
oil.
This is effective for reducing refrigerant
leaks.
B. For proper connection, align the centers of
gas union pipe and flare pipe straight with
each other, then finger tighten several turns
the flare nut tightly at first to obtain a smooth
match.
C. Then hold the union side with a double-ended
wrench and tighten the flare nut by applying
the tightening torque indicated in the table.
Be careful not to damage the flare nut
threads.
NOTES
1.
Insufficient tightening torque
will cause refrigerant leaks.
2.
Over tightening the torque
will damage the pipe flaring
and cause refrigerant leaks.
