Flaring Tool
■
■
* The flaring tools for R407C are applicable to R22.
* If using flaring tube, make dimension of tube
larger for R410A.
* In case of hard temper pipe, flaring is not
available.

Torque Wrench
●
■
* For 12.7mm D., 15.88mm D., wrench size is up
2mm.
Connection of Flare Nut

■
* For 6.35mm D., 9.52mm D., 19.05mm D., wrench
size is the same.
Brazing Tool
■
■
* Perform correct brazing work.

* Strict control against pollution (Blow nitrogen
during brazing.)

★
Use a synthetic oil which is equivalent to the oil
used in the refrigeration cycle.
Synthetic oil absorbs moisture quickly.

Vacuum Pump
■

○
It is required to mount a vacuum pump adapter
(check valve) to prevent oil of the vacuum pump
from being pulled when the vacuum pump stops.

○
Use manifold and charging hoses designed for
each refrigerant as design pressure is different. Do
not share manifold and charging hoses with other
refrigerant type to prevent mixing of different type of
refrigerant oil. (If use, it may cause cycle choking or
compressor failure.)
