Installation of Outdoor Units
•
Be sure to perform a nitrogen blow when brazing.
Brazing without performing nitrogen replacement or
releasing nitrogen into the piping will create large quan-
tities of oxidized film on the inside of the pipes, adversely
affecting valves and compressors in the refrigerating
system and preventing normal operation.
•
Do not use a flux when brazing the refrigerant pipe
joints.
Use phosphor copper brazing (B-Cu93P-710/795: ISO
3677) which does not require flux.
Flux has an extremely negative effect on refrigerant pip-
ing systems. For instance, if chlorine based flux is used,
it will cause pipe corrosion. If the flux contains fluorine, it
will damage the refrigerant oil.
DANGER
•
Use of oxygen could cause an explosion resulting in se-
vere injury or death. Only use nitrogen gas.
•
Refrigerant gas may produce toxic gas if it comes in con-
tact with fire such as from a fan heater, stove or cooking
device. Exposure to this gas could cause severe injury or
death.
•
The pressure regulator for the nitrogen released when
doing the brazing should be set to 2.9 psi or less.
Refer to figure 9.

Protection against contamination when installing pipes:
•
Take measures to prevent foreign materials like mois-
ture and contamination from mixing into the system.
•
Great caution is needed when passing copper tubes
through walls.
Precautions when selecting branch piping.
•
If the piping between the outdoor unit and the first refriger-
ant branching kit is 295 ft. or longer, be sure to enlarge the
main pipe in the liquid-side piping.
Do not enlarge the main pipe in the discharge-side and
suction-side piping.
Depending on the length of the refrigerant piping, the
power may drop but you still may enlarge the main pipe.
