Burr removal
1.Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section of
pipe/tube.
2.
Put the end of the copper tube/pipe in a downward direc-
tion as you remove burrs in order to avoid dropping burrs
into the tubing.
Putting nut on
Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and outdoor unit, then
put them on pipe/tube having completed burr removal.
(not possible to put them on after flaring work)
Flaring work
Firmly hold copper pipe in a die in the dimension shown in
the table above.
Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown below.
Check
1.Compare the flared work with figure below.
2.If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared section and re-
flare it.
• For walls containing metal frame or metal board, be sure to use
a wall embedded pipe and wall cover in the feed-through hole to
prevent possible heat, electrical shock, or fire.
• Be sure to caulk the gaps around the pipes with caulking mate-
rial to prevent water leakage.
1) Bore a feed-through hole of 65mm in the wall so it has a down
slope toward the outside.
2) Insert a wall pipe into the hole.
3) Insert a wall cover into wall pipe.
4) After completing refrigerant piping, wiring, and drain piping,
caulk pipe hole gap with putty.
3.1 Flaring work
Flaring work
Main cause for refrigerant leakage is due to defect in theflaring
work. Carry out correct flaring work using the follow-ing procedure.
Cut the pipes and the cable
1. Use the piping kit accessory or pipes purchased locally.
2. Measure the distance between the indoor and the outdoor unit.
3. Cut the pipes a little longer than the measured distance.
4. Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe length.
