• Tightening torque of flare pipe
The pressure of R410A is higher than R22.
(Approx. 1.6 times)
Therefore securely tighten the flare pipes which
connect the outdoor unit and indoor unit with the
specified tightening torque using a torque wrench.
If any flare pipe is incorrectly connected, it may
cause not only a gas leakage but also trouble in
the refrigeration cycle.

10-4-7. Evacuating
After the piping has been connected to all indoor unit(s),
you can perform the air purge together at once.
AIR PURGE
Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and in the
indoor unit using vacuum pump.
Do not use the refrigerant in the outdoor unit.
For details, see the manual of vacuum pump.
u
Use a vacuum pump
Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow
prevention function so that inside oil of the pump
does not flow backward into pipes of the air
conditioner when the pump stops.
(If inside oil of the vacuum pump enters into the
air conditioner which adopts R410A, a trouble of
the refrigeration cycle may be caused.)
1. Connect the charge hose from the manifold valve
to the service port of the gas side packed valve.
2. Connect the charge hose to the port of vacuum
pump.
3. Open fully the low pressure side handle of the
gauge manifold valve.
4. Operate the vacuum pump to start for evacuating.
Perform evacuating for about 35 minutes if the
piping length is total 70 meters. (25 minutes for
total 50 meters) (assuming a pump capacity of
27 liters per minute.)
Then confirm that the compound pressure gauge
reading is –101 kPa ( –76 cmHg).
5. Close the low pressure side valve handle of
gauge manifold.
6. Open fully the valve stem of the packed valves
(both sides of Gas and Liquid).
7. Remove the charging hose from the service port.
8. Securely tighten the caps on the packed valves.
