8. Precautions on refrigerant piping
• Do not allow anything other than the designated refrigerant to get

refrigerant gas leaks while working on the unit, ventilate the room
thoroughly right away.
• Use R410A only when adding refrigerant.
• Installation tools:
Make sure to use installation tools (gauge manifold, charge hose,

• Vacuum pump:
- Use a 2-stage vacuum pump with a non-return valve.
-

while the pump is not working.
- Use a vacuum pump which can evacuate to 500 microns (66.5 Pa).
• In areas where compliance with the Chicago Mechanical Code is
required, install a relief valve connection kit (DPRK06). For installa-
tion of the relief valve connection kit, refer to the installation manual
delivered with the kit.

Example:

•
Close the areas marked with
.
( When the piping is routed from
the front panel.)
Use clean pipes only.
• Hold the pipe end downwards when removing burrs.
• Cover the pipe end when inserting it through a wall so that no dust
or dirt enters the pipe.
NOTE
• After all the piping has been connected, make sure there is no gas
leak. Use Dry Nitrogen to perform a gas leak detection.
• After cutting the slit holes, it is recommended to remove burrs in the
slit holes and paint the edges and areas around the edges using the
repair paint to prevent rusting.
8.1. Caution for brazing
• Make sure to blow through with Dry Nitrogen when brazing. Blowing
through with Dry Nitrogen prevents the creation of large quantities

versely affects valves and compressors in the refrigerating system
and prevents proper operation.
• The Dry Nitrogen pressure should be set to 2.9 psi (0.02 MPa (i.e.,
just enough so it can be felt on the skin)) with a gauge manifold.
