Refrigerant Piping and Vacuuming
WARNING
•
Ventilate the room if a refrigerant gas is leaking during the installation work.
If the leaking refrigerant gas comes in contact with fire, a toxic gas is generated.
•
After installation, confirm that no refrigerant gas is leaking.
If the leaking refrigerant gas comes in contact with fire from a fan heater, a stove, or a gas range, a toxic gas is
generated.
NOTE
When the refrigerant pipe is long, provide support brackets at intervals of 2.5 - 3 m to clamp the refrigerant pipe.
Otherwise, abnormal sound may be generated.
Use the flare nut attached with the indoor unit or R410A flare nut.
Permissible piping length and height difference
They vary depending on the outdoor unit.
For details, refer to the Installation Manual attached to the outdoor unit.
About the pipe material and size
Refrigerant piping at the liquid / gas side
Flaring
1
Cut the pipe with a pipe cutter.
Remove burrs completely.
Remaining burrs may cause gas leakage.
2
Insert a flare nut into the pipe, and flare the pipe.
As the flaring sizes of R410A differ from those of refrigerant R22, the flare tools newly
manufactured for R410A are recommended.
However, the conventional tools can be used by adjusting projection margin of the copper pipe.
Projection margin in flaring: B (Unit: mm)
Rigid (Clutch type)
Pipe material
Seamless phosphorous-deoxidized copper pipe
