Allowable pipe length and height difference
See the table below concerning lengths and heights. Refer to figures
2~4. Assume that the longest line in the figure corresponds with the
actual longest pipe, and the highest unit in the figure corresponds
with the actual highest unit.
The minimal piping length should be 5 m. If installation is performed
with less field piping, the system will be overcharged (abnormal HP,
etc.). If the distance between indoor and outdoor unit is less than
5 m, please make sure that the piping length is
≥
5 m by additional
bending of the pipes.

■
Do not allow anything other than the designated refrigerant to
get mixed into the freezing cycle, such as air, etc. If any
refrigerant gas leaks while working on the unit, ventilate the
room thoroughly right away.
■
Use R-407C only when adding refrigerant
Installation tools:
Make sure to use installation tools (gauge manifold charge hose,
etc.) that are exclusively used for R-407C installations to
withstand the pressure and to prevent foreign materials (e.g.
mineral oils and moisture) from mixing into the system.
Vacuum pump:
Use a 2-stage vacuum pump with a non-return valve
Make sure the pump oil does not flow oppositely into the system
while the pump is not working.
Use a vacuum pump which can evacuate to –100.7 kPa (5 Torr,
–755 mmHg).
■
In order to prevent dirt, liquid or dust from entering the piping,
cure the piping with a pinch or taping.
Great caution is needed when passing copper tubes through
walls.
■
In case of simultanious operating system
-
Upward and downward piping should be performed at the
main piping line.
-
Use branch piping kit (optional) for branching refrigerant
pipes.
Precautions to be taken. (For details, refer to the manual attached to
branch piping kit.)
-
Install the branch pipes horizontally. (Maximum inclination:
20° or less)
-
Length of branch pipe to the indoor unit should be as short as
possible.
-
Try to keep lengths of both branch pipes to the indoor unit
equal.
■
When using existing refrigerant piping
Pay attention to the following points when using existing
refrigerant piping
■
In the following situations, the existing piping should not be
re-used and new piping should be installed.
- If the previously used model had problems with its
compressor (this might cause oxidized coolant oil, scale
residue and other adverse effects).
- If the indoor or outdoor units were disconnected from the
piping for a long period of time (water or dirt might have
gotten into the piping).
- If copper piping is corroded.
■
Flares should not be re-used but rather new ones made in
order to prevent leaks.
■
Check welded connections for gas leaks, if the local piping
has welded connections.
■
Replace deteriorated insulation with new material.

Field pipes can be installed in four directions.
Figure - Field pipes in four directions
■
Cutting out the two slits makes it possible to install as shown in
the
figure "Field pipes in four directions"
.
(Use a metal saw to cut out the slits.)
■
To install the connecting pipe to the unit in a downward
direction, make a knockout hole by penetrating the center area
around the knockout hole using a
Ø
6 mm drill. (See
figure "Field
pipes in four directions"
.)
■
After knocking out the knock-out, it is recommended to apply
repair paint to the edge and the surrounding end surfaces to
prevent rusting.
