R410A tools
Can R22 tools be used?
Gas leak detector
R410A has high pressures beyond the measurement range of existing
gauges. Port diameters have been changed to prevent any other refrigerant
from being charged into the unit.
Hose material and cap size have been changed to improve the pressure
resistance.
Dedicated for HFC refrigerant.
6.35 mm and 9.52 mm
Description
Clamp bar hole has been enlarged to reinforce the spring strength in the tool.
Provided for flaring work (to be used with R22 flare tool).
Provided to prevent the back flow of oil. This adapter enables you to use
vacuum pumps.
It is difficult to measure R410A with a charging cylinder because the
refrigerant bubbles due to high pressure and high-speed vaporization

1.Tools dedicated for the air conditioner with R410A refrigerant
The following tools are required for R410A refrigerant. Some R22 tools can be substituted for R410A tools.
The diameter of the service port on the stop valve in outdoor unit has been changed to prevent any other refrigerant being
charged into the unit. Cap size has been changed from 7/16 UNF with 20 threads to 1/2 UNF with 20 threads.
2.Refrigerant piping
1
Specifications
Use the refrigerant pipes that meet the following specifications.
• Use a copper pipe or a copper-alloy seamless pipe with a thickness of 0.8 mm (6.35, 9.52, 12.7), 1.0 mm (15.88).
Never use any pipe with a thickness less than 0.8 mm (6.35, 9.52, 12.7), 1.0 mm (15.88), as the pressure resistance is
insufficient.
