Air-cooled refrigeration condensing unit
4P500362-1A – 2018.09
Item
Description
Piping diameter
Must comply with requirements. See
"5.3.2 Refrigerant piping requirements" on
page 12
Piping material
Piping length and
height difference
Piping insulation
If deteriorated, must be replaced.
Must comply with requirements. See
"6.6 To insulate the refrigerant piping" on
page 21
Welded connections
Must be checked for gas leaks.
Cleaning piping
If the old condensing unit did NOT use the
same refrigerant (R410A) and the same oil
(FVC68D) as the new one, you must clean
the piping to remove any residue.
5.3.2
Refrigerant piping requirements
INFORMATION
Also read the precautions and requirements in the
"General safety precautions" chapter.
NOTICE
The refrigerant R410A requires strict cautions for keeping
the system clean, dry and tight.
▪ Clean and dry: foreign materials (including mineral oils
or moisture) should be prevented from getting mixed
into the system.
▪ Tight: R410A does not contain any chlorine, does not
destroy the ozone layer, and does not reduce earth's
protection against harmful ultraviolet radiation. R410A
can contribute slightly to the greenhouse effect if it is
released. Therefore pay special attention to check the
tightness of the installation.
NOTICE
The piping and other pressure-containing parts shall be
suitable for refrigerant. Use phosphoric acid deoxidised
seamless copper for refrigerant.
▪ Foreign materials inside pipes (including oils for fabrication) must
be ≤30 mg/10 m.
5.3.3
Refrigerant piping material

Piping material:
Phosphoric acid deoxidised seamless copper.

Depending on the applicable legislation and the unit's
maximum working pressure (see "PS High" on the unit
name plate), larger piping thickness might be required.

Height difference outdoor-indoor
In case the required pipe sizes (inch sizes) are not available, it is
also allowed to use other diameters (mm sizes), taken the following
into account:
▪ Select the pipe size nearest to the required size.
▪ Use the suitable adapters for the change-over from inch to mm
pipes (field supply).
▪ The additional refrigerant calculation has to be adjusted as
mentioned in
"6.7.3 To determine the additional refrigerant
.

(b)
(a)
Same diameter as the connection on the outdoor unit.
(b)
Use the accessory piping to adapt the diameter of the
outdoor unit stop valve (Ø15.9 mm) to that of the field
piping (Ø19.1 mm).
B+C/b+c: Piping between piping branching
Use diameters depending on the total capacity of the indoor units
connected downstream.

For showcases, capacity is calculated at evaporating
temperature –10°C. For blower coils, capacity is calculated
at temperature difference (= evaporating temperature –
room temperature) of 10°C.
