1 Check Before Servicing
1-1-2 Tool Preparation
Prepare the following tools and materials necessary for installing and servicing the unit.
Tools for use with R410A (Adaptability of tools that are for use with R22 or R407C)
1. To be used exclusively with R410A (not to be used if used with R22 or R407C)
2. Tools and materials that may be used with R410A with some restrictions
3. Tools and materials that are used with R22 or R407C that may also be used with R410A
4. Tools and materials that must not be used with R410A
Tools for R410A must be handled with special care to keep moisture and dust from infiltrating the cycle.
Tools/Materials Use Notes
Gauge Manifold Evacuation and refrigerant charging Higher than 5.09MPa[738psi] on the
high-pressure side
Charging Hose Evacuation and refrigerant charging The hose diameter is larger than the
conventional model.
Refrigerant Recovery Cylinder Refrigerant recovery
Refrigerant Cylinder Refrigerant charging The refrigerant type is indicated. The
cylinder is pink.
Charging Port on the Refrigerant Cylinder Refrigerant charging The charge port diameter is larger
than that of the current port.
Flare Nut Connection of the unit with the pipes Use Type-2 Flare nuts.
Tools/Materials Use Notes
Gas Leak Detector Gas leak detection The ones for use with HFC refrigerant
may be used.
Vacuum Pump Vacuum drying May be used if a check valve adapter
is attached.
Flare Tool Flare processing Flare processing dimensions for the
piping in the system using the new re-
frigerant differ from those of R22. Re-
fer to the following page(s). [1-2-1
Piping Materials]
Refrigerant Recovery Equipment Refrigerant recovery May be used if compatible with
R410A.
Tools/Materials Use Notes
Vacuum Pump with a Check Valve Vacuum drying
Bender Bending pipes
Torque Wrench Tightening flare nuts Only the flare processing dimensions
for pipes that have a diameter of
ø12.7 (1/2") and ø15.88 (5/8") have
been changed.
Pipe Cutter Cutting pipes
Welder and Nitrogen Cylinder Welding pipes
Refrigerant Charging Meter Refrigerant charging
Vacuum Gauge Vacuum level check
Tools/Materials Use Notes
Charging Cylinder Refrigerant charging Prohibited to use
