When using conventional
fl

fl
are R410A pipes,
the dimension A should be approximately 0.5 mm more
than indicated in the table (for
fl
aring with R410A
fl
are tools)
to achieve the speci
fi
ed
fl
aring. Use a thickness gauge to
measure the dimension A.

4.3.2. Bending pipes
•
If pipes are shaped by hand, be careful not to collapse
them.
•
Do not bend the pipes in an angle more than 90°.
•
When pipes are repeatedly bend or stretched, the material
will harden, making it dif
fi
cult to bend or stretch them any
more.
•
Do not bend or stretch the pipes more than three times.
CAUTION
• To prevent breaking of the pipe, avoid sharp bends.
• If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it will break.
4.3.3. Pipe connection
CAUTION
• Be sure to apply the pipe against the port on the indoor unit
correctly. If the centering is improper, the
fl
are nut cannot be
tighten smoothly. If the
fl
are nut is forced to turn, the threads
will be damaged.
• Do not remove the
fl
are nut from the indoor unit pipe until
immediately before connecting the connection pipe.
• Hold the torque wrench at its grip, keeping it in the right
angle with the pipe, in order to tighten the
fl
are nut correctly.
• Tighten the flare nuts with a torque wrench using the
speci
fi
ed tightening method. Otherwise, the
fl
are nuts could
break after a prolonged period, causing refrigerant to leak
and generate a hazardous gas if the refrigerant comes into
contact with a
fl
ame.
When the
fl
are nut is tightened properly by your hand, hold
the body side coupling with a separate spanner, then tighten
with a torque wrench. (See the table below for the
fl
are nut
tightening torques.)

• In order to prevent water from leaking into the control box,
make sure that the piping is well insulated.
