Use the following tools specifically designed for use with the specified refrigerant: Gauge manifold, charge
hose, gas leak detector, check valve, refrigerant charge base, vacuum gauge, and refrigerant recovery
equipment.
- Gas leak detectors for conventional refrigerants will not react to a refrigerant that does not contain chlorine.
- If the specified refrigerant is mixed with water, refrigerant oil, or another refrigerant, the refrigerant oil will deteriorate
and the compressor will malfunction.
Use a vacuum pump with a check valve.
- If the vacuum pump oil flows back into the refrigerant lines, the refrigerant oil may deteriorate and the compressor
may malfunction.
Keep tools clean.
- If dust, dirt, or water accumulates on the charging hose or the flare processing tool, the refrigerant will deteriorate
and the compressor will malfunction.
Use refrigerant piping made of phosphorus deoxidized copper (copper and copper alloy seamless pipes) that
meets local requirements. Pipe joints should also meet local requirements. Keep the inner and outer surfaces
of the pipes clean and free of sulphur, oxides, dust/dirt, shaving particles, oils, moisture, or any other
contaminants.
- Contaminants on the inside of the refrigerant piping will cause the refrigerant oil to deteriorate and cause the
compressor to malfunction.
Store pipes indoors, and keep both ends of the pipes sealed until just before making a flare connection or
brazing. (Store elbows and other joints in plastic bags.)
- If dust, dirt, or water enters the refrigerant lines, the refrigerant oil will deteriorate and the compressor will
malfunction.
Braze the pipes with a nitrogen purge to avoid oxidation.
- Oxidized flux inside the refrigerant pipes will cause the refrigerant oil to deteriorate and cause the compressor to
malfunction.
Do not use existing refrigerant piping.
- The old refrigerant and refrigerant oil in the existing piping contain a large amount of chlorine, which will cause the
refrigerant oil in the new unit to deteriorate and cause the compressor to malfunction.
Charge refrigerant in a liquid state.
- Charging refrigerant in the gaseous state will change the composition of the refrigerant and lead to a performance
drop.
Do not use a charging cylinder when charging refrigerant.
- The use of a charging cylinder may change the composition of the refrigerant and lead to a performance drop.
If a large electric current flows due to a malfunction or faulty wiring, earth-leakage breakers on the unit side
and on the upstream side of the power supply system could both operate. Depending on the importance of
the system, separate the power supply system or take protective coordination of breakers.
This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in light industry and on farms, or
for commercial use by lay persons.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
