Gas leak inspection
* Leak detectors for conventional HCFC refrigerant (R22, etc.)
cannot be used, as the sensitivity drops to approximately 1/40
when used for HFC refrigerant.
• R32 has a high working pressure, so failure to perform the installation
work properly may result in gas leaks such as when the pressure
rises during operation. Be sure to perform leak tests on the piping
connections.
Insulating the Pipes
• The temperatures at both the liquid side and gas side
will be low during cooling so in order to prevent
condensation, be sure to insulate the pipes at both of
these sides.
• Insulate the pipes separately for the liquid side and
gas side.
• Insulate the branch pipes by following the instructions
in the installation manual provided with the branch
pipe kit.
REQUIREMENT
Be sure to use an insulating material which can
withstand temperatures above 120°C for the gas side
pipe since this pipe will become very hot during heating
operations.
Use a leak detector manufactured specially for HFC refrigerant
(R32, R410A, R134a, etc.) to perform the R32 gas leak inspection.
