INSTALLATION
—
bring line ends with flare connection close to their cou-
pling on the unit
—
manually rotate the flare nuts by 3 - 4 turns
—
tighten the connections using a spanner and a counter
spanner
9
Use a torque wrench to tighten so as to prevent damage to
flare nuts and gas leaks.
9
During the connection, keep the leak finder on and close to
the unit so that it signals any refrigerant leak.
9
Avoid using the refrigerant oil on the external part of the
flaring.
9
Models 475 - 485: if necessary use the adapter coupling 1/2"
at 3/8" supplied as a kit.
After connecting the cooling pipes:
—
create a vacuum inside the pipes
—
check for refrigerant leaks
—
apply thermal insulating material on the joints
Pipe insulation
Connection pipes must be thermally insulated to prevent dis-
persions of heat or formation of condensate.

—
insulate the liquid and gas pipes separately
—
use insulating material that is thicker than 15 mm
—
ensure that the insulating material adheres to the pipe
without gaps
—
fix using adhesive tape
9
Do not tighten the adhesive tape too much, so as to avoid
damaging the insulation.
9
Avoid partial insulation of the pipes.
9
In case of use with outdoor temperature above 30 °C and
relative humidity above 80%, increase wall thickness up to
20 mm.
For gas pipes:
—
ensure that the material used resists to temperatures up
to 120°C
For liquid pipes:
—
ensure that the material used resists to temperatures up
to 70°C
Stop valves
Cooling connections feature shut-off valves.
During operations on the cooling circuit, start-up and service, it
may be required to open and close the valves.

If required:
—
remove the valve covering plug
—
operate on the valve shaft with an hex wrench
—
open or close according to what is needed
—
immediately stop as soon as the valve shaft has reached
the stop point
—
use a torque wrench calibrated on the valve diameter

Do not force beyond the stop point to prevent damaging the
shaft and causing leakage as a consequence.
At the end of the operations:
—
refit the valve covering plug
