8. Precautions on refrigerant piping
r Do not allow anything other than the designated refrigerant to get

thoroughly right away.
r Use R410A only when adding refrigerant

animals may enter the machine).
Example: passing piping out through the front.

1 Close the areas marked with .
(When the piping is routed from the
front panel.)
r Use clean pipes only.
r
Hold the pipe end downwards when removing burrs.
r Cover the pipe end when inserting it through a wall so that no dust
or dirt enters the pipe.
NOTE
r After all the piping has been connected, make sure there is no gas
leak. Use Dry Nitrogen to perform a gas leak detection.
r After knocking out the holes, we recommend you remove burrs in
the knock holes and paint the edges and areas around the edges
using the repair paint.
8.1. Caution for brazing
r Make sure to blow through with Dry Nitrogen when brazing. Blowing
through with Dry Nitrogen prevents the creation of large quantities

versely affects valves and compressors in the refrigerating system
and prevents proper operation.
r The Dry Nitrogen pressure should be set to 2.9 psi (0.02 MPa (i.e.,
just enough so it can be felt on the skin)) with a pressure-reducing
valve.

NOTE
Precautions when knocking out knockout holes:
r Be sure to avoid damaging the casing.
r
After knocking out the knockout holes, we recommend you remove
the burrs and paint the edges and areas around the edges using
repair paint to prevent rusting.
r When passing electrical wiring through the knock holes, protect the wir-
ing with a conduit or bushings, making sure not to damage the wiring.
8.2.2. Remove the pinched pipes
WARNING
Any gas or oil remaining inside the stop valve may blow off the pinched
piping.
Failure to observe the instructions in procedure below properly may
result in property damage or personal injury, which may be serious
depending on the circumstances.
