INFORMATION FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER WITH R410A REFRIGERANT
• This room air conditioner adopts HFC refrigerant (R410A) which never destroys the ozone layer.
• Pay particular attention to the following points, though the basic installation procedure is same as that for R22 air
conditioners.
1
As R410A has working pressure approximate 1.6 times as high as that of R22, some special tools and piping parts/
materials are required. Refer to the table below.
2
Take sufficient care not to allow water and other contaminations to enter the R410A refrigerant during storage and
installation, since it is more susceptible to contaminations than R22.
3
For refrigerant piping, use clean, pressure-proof parts/materials specifically designed for R410A. (Refer to 2. Refrigerant
piping.)
4
Composition change may occur in R410A since it is a mixed refrigerant. When charging, charge liquid refrigerant to prevent
composition change.
