12.1.4 Connecting the Refrigerant Piping
12.1.4.1 Connecting
The Piping to Indoor
For connection joint of all models
Please make flare after inserting flare nut (locate at
joint portion of tube assembly) onto the copper pipe.
(In case of using long piping)
Connect the piping
Align the center of piping and sufficiently tighten
the flare nut with fingers.
Further tighten the flare nut with torque wrench in
specified torque as stated in the table.
Additional Precautions For R32 Models when
connecting by flaring at indoor side
Seal sufficiently the flare nut (both gas and liquid sides)
with neutral cure (Alkoxy type) & ammonia-free
silicone sealant and insulation material to avoid the
gas leak caused by freezing.
Neutral cure (Alkoxy type) & ammonia-free silicone
sealant is only to be applied after pressure testing and
cleaning up by following instructions of sealant, only to
the outside of the connection. The aim is to prevent
moisture from entering the connection joint and
possible occurrence of freezing. Curing sealant will
take some time. Make sure sealant will not peel off
when wrapping the insulation.
12.1.4.2 Connecting The Piping to Outdoor
Decide piping length and then cut by using pipe cutter.
Remove burrs from cut edge.
Make flare after inserting the flare nut (locate at valve)
onto the copper pipe. Align center of piping to valve
and then tighten with torque wrench to the specified
torque as stated in the table.
Do not overtighten, overtightening may cause gas leakage.
