Flaring work
Main cause for refrigerant leakage is due to defect in the
flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work using the follow-
ing procedure.
Cut the pipes and the cable.
• Use the piping kit accessory or pipes purchased locally.
• Measure the distance between the indoor and the outdoor unit.
• Cut the pipes a little longer than the measured distance.
• Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe length.
Check
• Compare the flared work with figure below.
• If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared sec-
tion and re-flare it.
• Preparing the indoor unit's piping and drain hose for instal-
lation through the wall.
• Remove the plastic tubing retainer(see illustration below)
and pull the tubing and drain hose away from chassis.
• Replace the plastic tubing holder in the original
position.(Optional)
• Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown below.
Burr removal
• Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section of
pipe/tube.
• Put the end of the copper tube/pipe in a downward direc-
tion as you remove burrs in order to avoid dropping burrs
into the tubing.
Putting nut on
• Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and outdoor unit,
then put them on pipe/tube having completed burr removal.
(not possible to put them on after flaring work)
Flaring work
• Firmly hold copper pipe in a die in the dimension shown in
the table above.
