Refrigerant pipe welding and safety information
Important information for refrigerant pipe work
• Make sure there is no moisture inside the pipe .
• Make sure there are no foreign substances and impurities in the pipe .
• Make sure there is no leakage .
• Make sure to follow the instruction when welding or storing the pipe .
CAUTION
Nitrogen flushing welding
X f When welding the refrigerant pipes, flush them with nitrogen gas as shown in the picture .
X f If you do not perform nitrogen flushing when welding the pipes, oxide may form inside the pipe . It can cause the
damage of the important parts such as compressor and valves etc .
X f Adjust the flow rate of the nitrogen flushing with a pressure regulator to maintain 0 .05m

Direction of the pipe when welding
X f
Direction of the pipe should be headed downward or in a sideways when welding .
X f Avoid welding the pipe with pipe direction heading upward .
• When you test gas leakage after welding the pipes, use a designated solution for gas leakage detection . If
you use the detection solution that includes sulfuric ingredient, it may cause corrosion to the pipes .
