INFORMATION FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER WITH R407C REFRIGERANT
This room air conditioner adopts HFC refrigerant (R407C) which never destroy the ozone layer.
Pay attention to following points.
1
Take sufficient care not to allow water and other contaminations to enter the R407C refrigerant during storage and
installation, since it is more susceptible to contaminations than HCFC (R22) refrigerant.
2
Clean refrigerant piping should be used.
3
Composition change may occur in R407C since it is a mixed refrigerant. When charging, charge liquid refrigerant to
prevent composition change.
4
Be especially careful when managing the tools.
If dust, dirt, or water mixes in the refrigerant cycle, it may cause decrease of performance.
New Specification
Previous Specification
The incompatible lubricant easily separates from refrigerant
and makes the layer in the upper inside the suction muffler.
The higher position of the returning oil hole enables to return
the lubricant of the upper layer to the compressor.
Since refrigerant and lubricant are compatible each other,
lubricant returns to the compressor through the lower
position returning oil hole.
