NOTE
•
Be sure to use the supplied accessory pipes when carrying out pip-
ing work in the field.
• Be sure that the field installed piping does not touch other pipes,
the bottom panel or side panel. Especially for the bottom and side
connection, be sure to protect the piping with suitable insulation, to
prevent it from coming into contact with the casing generated.
Connection from the stop valves to the field piping can be done by us
-
ing accessory pipes supplied as accessory.
NOTE
Make sure that the onsite piping does not come in contact with other
piping, the bottom frame or side panels of the unit.
The connections to the branch kits are the responsibility of the installer
(field piping).

BHFP26P151U/BHFP26P151UA are always required. When install-
ing the piping, follow the instructions in the installation manual that
comes with the kit.
