Precautions for New Refrigerant (R-410A)
Precautions for New Refrigerant (R-410A)
241
1.3 Service Tools
R-410A is used under higher working pressure, compared to previous refrigerants
(R-22,R-407C). Furthermore, the refrigerating machine oil has been changed from Suniso oil to
Ether oil, and if oil mixing is occurred, sludge results in the refrigerants and causes other
problems. Therefore, gauge manifolds and charge hoses that are used with a previous
refrigerant (R-22,R-407C) can not be used for products that use new refrigerants.
Be sure to use dedicated tools and devices.
Tool compatibility
As for the charge mouthpiece and packing, 1/2UNF20 is necessary for mouthpiece size of
charge hose.

Thread specification differs for R-410A
and R-407C.

•
To use existing pump for HFCs,
vacuum pump adapter must be
installed.
