IMPORTANT:
The Rheem approved/recommended method is a guide to securing
equipment for wind and seismic loads. Other methods might provide the same result,
but the Rheem method is the only one endorsed by Rheem for securing equipment
where wind or earthquake damage can occur. Additional information is available in
the PTS (Product Technical Support) section of the Rheem website Rheemote.net
and can be found as a listing under each outdoor model. If you do not have access
to this site, your Distributor can offer assistance.
4.2 Specifications of R-410A:
Application: R-410A is not a drop-in replacement for R-22;
equipment designs
must accommodate its higher pressures. It cannot be retrofitted into R-22 heat
pumps.
Physical Properties:
R-410A has an atmospheric boiling point of -62.9°F and its
saturation pressure at 77°F is 224.5 psig.
Composition:
R-410A is an azeotropic mixture of 50% by weight difluoromethane
(HFC-32) and 50% by weight pentafluoroethane (HFC-125).
Pressure: The pressure of R-410A is approximately 60% (1.6 times) greater
than R-22.
Recovery and recycle equipment, pumps, hoses and the like need to
have design pressure ratings appropriate for R-410A.
Manifold sets need to range
up to 800 psig high-side and 250 psig low-side with a 550 psig low-side retard.
Hoses need to have a service pressure rating of 800 psig. Recovery cylinders need
to have a 400 psig service pressure rating.
DOT 4BA400 or DOT BW400.
Combustibility:
At pressures above 1 atmosphere, mixture of R-410A and air can
become combustible.
R-410A and air should never be mixed in tanks or supply
lines, or be allowed to accumulate in storage tanks. Leak checking should
never be done with a mixture of R-410A and air.
Leak checking can be per-
formed safely with nitrogen or a mixture of R-410A and nitrogen.
4.3 Quick Reference Guide For R-410A
• R-410A refrigerant operates at approximately 60% higher pressure (1.6 times)
than R-22. Ensure that servicing equipment is designed to operate with R-410A.
• R-410A refrigerant cylinders are pink in color.
• R-410A, as with other HFC’s is only compatible with POE oils.
• Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from oil.
• R-410A systems are to be charged with liquid refrigerants. Prior to March 1999,
R-410A refrigerant cylinders had a dip tube. These cylinders should be kept
upright for equipment charging. Post March 1999 cylinders do not have a dip tube
and should be inverted to ensure liquid charging of the equipment.
• Do not install a suction line filter drier in the liquid line.
• A liquid line filter drier is standard on every unit. Only manufacturer approved liq-
uid line filter driers can be used. These are Sporlan (CW083S) and Alco
(80K083S) driers. These filter driers are rated for minimum working pressure of
600 psig.
• Desiccant (drying agent) must be compatible for POE oils and R-410A.
