WARNING
Never remove the pinched piping by brazing.
Any gas or oil remaining inside the stop valve may blow off
the pinched piping.

Wait until all oil is dripped out before continuing with the
connection of the field piping in case the recovery was not
complete.

About checking the refrigerant piping
Refrigerant piping works are
finished?
The indoor units and/or
outdoor unit were already
powered ON?
Use procedure:
"Method 2: After power ON".
Finish piping work.
Use procedure:
"Method 1: Before power ON
(regular method)".

It is very important that all refrigerant piping work is done before the
units (outdoor or indoor) are powered on.
When the units are powered on, the expansion valves will initialise.
This means that they will close. Leak test and vacuum drying of field
piping and indoor units is impossible when this happens.
Therefore, there will be explained 2 methods for initial installation,
leak test and vacuum drying.
Method 1: Before power ON
If the system has not yet been powered on, no special action is
required to perform the leak test and the vacuum drying.
Method 2: After power ON
If the system has already been powered on, activate setting [2‑21]
(refer to
"6.1.4 To access mode 1 or 2" on page 26
). This setting
will open field expansion valves to guarantee a R410A piping
pathway and make it possible to perform the leak test and the
vacuum drying.
NOTICE
Make sure that all indoor units connected to the outdoor
unit are powered on.
NOTICE
Wait until the outdoor unit has finished the initialisation to
apply setting [2‑21].
Leak test and vacuum drying
Checking the refrigerant piping involves:
▪ Checking for any leakages in the refrigerant piping.
▪ Performing vacuum drying to remove all moisture, air or nitrogen
in the refrigerant piping.
If there is a possibility of moisture being present in the refrigerant
piping (for example, water may have entered the piping), first carry
out the vacuum drying procedure below until all moisture has been
removed.
All piping inside the unit has been factory tested for leaks.
Only field installed refrigerant piping needs to be checked.
Therefore, make sure that all the outdoor unit stop valves are firmly
closed before performing leak test or vacuum drying.
NOTICE
Make sure that all (field supplied) field piping valves are
OPEN (not outdoor unit stop valves!) before you start leak
test and vacuuming.
For more information on the state of the valves, refer to
"5.4.3 Checking refrigerant piping: Setup" on page 15
5.4.2
Checking refrigerant piping: General
guidelines
Connect the vacuum pump through a manifold to the service port of
all stop valves to increase efficiency (refer to
refrigerant piping: Setup" on page 15
NOTICE
Use a 2-stage vacuum pump with a non-return valve or a
solenoid valve that can evacuate to a gauge pressure of
–100.7 kPa (5 Torr absolute).
NOTICE
Make sure the pump oil does not flow oppositely into the
system while the pump is not working.
NOTICE
Do not purge the air with refrigerants. Use a vacuum pump
to evacuate the installation.
