Oil traps
To ensure the permanent oil flow in the 16 mm line, it is necessary, in criti-
cal installation conditions, to provide oil traps in the suction line.
A vertical line running 16 mm requires:
at a cable length of 1.5 m, a centrally integrated oil trap
at a cable length of more than 1.5 m - Oil traps have to be installed cen-
trally every 1.5 m
If the 16 mm line running in the direction of flow with constant slope and a
length of more than 6 m, oil traps have to be installed every 6 m.
7.3
Insulation
For refrigerant line we recommend the use of pre-insulated original
WATERKOTTE double-copper tube rings 10 / 16 x 1.0 mm (Z16956) and
matching screw clamps (Z16957).
Recommendation:
Note:
To prevent
heat loss
it is recommended
to insulate
the refrigerant
pipes
separately.
Note the national technical regulations (Germany: EnEV
or
VDI
