Airtight Test Method
(1) Connect the manifold gauge to the access port of the liquid line and the gas line stop valves using
charging hoses with a vacuum pump or a nitrogen cylinder.
Perform the airtight test.
Do not open the stop valves. Apply nitrogen gas pressure of 601 psi (4.15MPa).
For checking gas leakage, use the leak detector or foaming agent. If there is any leakage, fix the
leaking part.
(2) Caution for checking gas leakage, do not use a foaming agent which generates ammonia.
Additionally, do NOT use any household detergent as foaming agent with potentially unknown or
harmful ingredients.
Use the recommended foaming agent to detect leaking refrigerant gas is shown below.
Be sure to use nitrogen gas for airtight test. If other gases such as oxygen gas, acetylene gas or
fluorocarbon gas are accidentally used, it may cause an explosion or gas intoxication.
Insulation Work
(1) Securely insulate the high/low pressure and low pressure gas piping side and liquid piping side
individually.
Make sure to insulate the union flare nut for the piping connection as well.
(2) Seal the gap between the bottom base or front piping cover and pipes with the insulation.
CAUTION:
If the gap is not sealed, damage can occur from rain, snow, animals, or insects that can gain entry.
CAUTION:
Nitrogen Gas should be sufficiently charged for each access port (high/low pressure gas line side, low
pressure gas line side (for heat recovery system only), and for liquid line side). If not performed in this
manner, the expansion valve for the outdoor unit, indoor unit, or change-over box can close up, making
any airtight test impossible.
