Refrigerant pipe size and allowable pipe length
Danger

Piping an other pressure containing parts
shall comply with the applicable legislation and shall be suitable for refrigerant. Use phosphoric acide
deoxidised seamless copper for refrigerant.

Installation shall be done by an installer, the choice of materials and installation shall comply with
applicable legislation.
Information
It is forbidden to discharge refrigerant into the atmosphere. Collect the refrigerant in accordance with the
freon collection and destruction law.
Notice
To persons in charge of piping work:
Be sure to open the stop valve after piping installing and vacuuming is complete. (Running the system with the
valve closed may break the compressor.)
Notice
Do not use flux when brazing the refrigerant piping.
For brazing, use phosphor copper brazing filler metal (BCuP) which does not require a flux.
(If a chlorine flux is used, the piping will corrode, and if the flux contains fluoride, if will cause the coolant oi to
deteriorate, adversely affecting the coolant piping system.)
