NOTICE
Make sure to use a recommended bubble test solution
from your wholesaler. Do not use soap water, which may
cause cracking of flare nuts (soap water may contain salt,
which absorbs moisture that will freeze when the piping
gets cold), and/or lead to corrosion of flared joints (soap
water may contain ammonia which causes a corrosive
effect between the brass flare nut and the copper flare).
1 Charge the system with nitrogen gas up to a gauge pressure of
at least 200 kPa (2 bar). It is recommended to pressurize to
3000 kPa (30 bar) in order to detect small leaks.
2 Check for leaks by applying the bubble test solution to all
connections.
3 Discharge all nitrogen gas.
INFORMATION
After opening the stop valve, it is possible that the pressure
in the refrigerant piping does NOT increase. This might be
caused by e.g. the closed state of the expansion valve in
the outdoor unit circuit, but does NOT present any problem
for correct operation of the unit.
7.6.4 To perform vacuum drying
Connect the vacuum pump and manifold as follows:

g h i
h
a Pressure meter
b Gauge manifold
c Low-pressure valve (Lo)
d High-pressure valve (Hi)
e Charging hoses
f Vacuum pump
g Service port
h Valve lids
i Gas stop valve
j Liquid stop valve
1 Vacuum the system until the pressure on the manifold indicates
−0.1 MPa (−1 bar).
2 Leave as is for 4-5 minutes and check the pressure:
If the pressure… Then…
Does not change There is no moisture in the
system. This procedure is
finished.
Increases There is moisture in the
system. Go to the next step.
3 Evacuate for at least 2 hours to a pressure on the manifold of
−0.1 MPa (−1 bar).
4 After turning OFF the pump, check the pressure for at least
1 hour.
5 If you do NOT reach the target vacuum or cannot maintain the
vacuum for 1 hour, do the following:
▪ Check for leaks again.
▪ Perform vacuum drying again.
NOTICE
Be sure to open the gas stop valve after piping installation
and vacuuming. Running the system with the valve closed,
the compressor may break down.
7.7 Charging refrigerant
7.7.1 About charging refrigerant
The outdoor unit is factory charged with refrigerant, but in some
cases the following might be necessary:
What When
Charging additional refrigerant When the total liquid piping
length is more than specified
(see later).
Completely recharging refrigerant Example:
▪ When relocating the system.
▪ After a leak.
Charging additional refrigerant
Before charging additional refrigerant, make sure the outdoor unit's
external refrigerant piping is checked (leak test, vacuum drying).
INFORMATION
Depending on the units and/or the installation conditions, it
might be necessary to connect electrical wiring before you
can charge refrigerant.
Typical workflow – Charging additional refrigerant typically consists
of the following stages:
1 Determining if and how much you have to charge additionally.
2 If necessary, charging additional refrigerant.
3 Filling in the fluorinated greenhouse gases label, and fixing it to
the inside of the outdoor unit.
Completely recharging refrigerant
Before completely recharging refrigerant, make sure the following is
done:
1 The system is pumped down.
2 The outdoor unit's external refrigerant piping is checked (leak
test, vacuum drying).
3 Vacuum drying on the outdoor unit's internal refrigerant piping is
performed.
NOTICE
Before completely recharging, perform vacuum drying on
the outdoor unit's
internal refrigerant piping as well.
Typical workflow – Completely recharging refrigerant typically
consists of the following stages:
1 Determining how much refrigerant to charge.
2 Charging refrigerant.
3 Filling in the fluorinated greenhouse gases label, and fixing it to
the inside of the outdoor unit.
