Blowing Nitrogen gas should be done when brazing the pipe.
t
Make sure to use the provided flare nut.
t
Make sure that there are no cracks on the bent pipe.
t
Do not fasten the flare nut with excessive strength.
t
Use ester oil to coat the flare connection area to prevent refrigerant leak. R-410A is a high pressure refrigerant.
Therefore, there is a risk of refrigerant leakage if the flare connection is not coated with ester oil.
