In Case of Reusing Existing Refrigerant Piping
Proper Pump Down Method
Check Items
Observe the followings to decide reusing the existing refrigerant piping.
Poor refrigerant piping could result in product failure.
• In the circumstances listed below, do not reuse any refrigerant piping. Instead, make sure to install a new piping.
O
Heat insulation is not provided for either liquid-side or gas-side piping or both.
O
The existing refrigerant pipe has been left in an open condition.
O
The diameter and thickness of the existing refrigerant piping does not meet the requirement.
O
The piping length and elevation does not meet the requirement.
Perform proper pump down before reuse piping.
• In the circumstances listed below, clean it thoroughly before reuse.
O
Pump down operation cannot be performed for the existing air-conditioner.
O
The compressor has a failure history.
O
Oil color is darken. ( ASTM 4.0 and above ).
O
The existing air-conditioner is gas/oil heat pump type.
• Do not reuse the flare to prevent gas leak. Make sure to install a new flare.
• If there is a welded part on the existing refrigerant piping, conduct a gas leak check on the welded part.
• Replace deteriorated heat insulating material with a new one.
Heat insulating material is required for both liquid-side and gas-side piping.
Most Important Process
Purpose: To make the oil
& refrigerant mix together.
They are in separated
condition when
air conditioner
is stopped.
Mixed refrigerant &
oil will be collected
into outdoor unit.
Only very small
amount of oil remain
inside piping, which
is acceptable.
Operate air
conditioner at
cooling mode for
10 ~ 15 minutes.
After 10 ~ 15 minutes of pre
operation, close 2 way valve.
After 3 minutes, close 3 way
valve.
Take out air
conditioner unit.
Install New
Refrigerant air
conditioner.
In case pump down cannot be done, please
e flush the piping using R32 refrigerant.
Must do re--flare of pipes before connecting to units.
Is there any gas leakage at
fl
