▪ In case of RXYSQ6: Connect the gas piping accessories (c,
c1, d, e), and cut them to the required length (e1). This is
necessary because the size of the gas stop valve is Ø15.9
while the piping between outdoor unit and first refrigerant
branch kit is Ø19.1.

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.
