before removing the connection pipe. If the refrigerant pipe is not properly connected and the compressor works
with the service valve open, the pipe inhales the air and it makes the pressure inside of the refrigerant cycle
abnormally high. It may cause explosion and injury.
Evacuating the connected pipes
1. Connect each assembly pipe to the appropriate valve on the outdoor unit
and tighten the are nut.
2. Tighten the are nut rst with your hands, and then with a torque wrench,
applying the following torque.

3. Connect the charging hose of the low-pressure side of manifold gauge to a
gas service port as seen in the picture.
4. Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge counterclockwise.
5. Evacuate the air in the connected pipes using the vacuum pump for about
15 minutes.
Make sure that pressure gauge shows -0.1MPa(-76cmHg) after about
10 minutes.
This procedure is very important to avoid a gas leak.
Close the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge clockwise.
Turn o the vacuum pump.
Check for 2 minutes if there is any pressure change.
Remove the hose of the low pressure side of manifold gauge.

Leak test with nitrogen (before opening valves)
In order to detect basic refrigerant leaks, before recreating the vacuum and recirculating the R-410A, it’s responsible of
installer to pressurize the whole system with nitrogen (using a cylinder with pressure reducer) at a pressure above 40 bar
(gauge).
Leak test with R-410A (after opening valves)
Before opening valves, discharge all the nitrogen from the system and create vacuum according to page 48~49.
After opening valves, check leaks using a leak detector for refrigerant.
Pump down (before disconnecting the refrigerant connections for unit repair, removal or disposal)
Pump-down is an operation intended to collect all the system refrigerant in the outdoor unit.
This operation must be carried out before disconnecting the refrigerant tubing in order to avoid refrigerant loss to the
atmosphere.
Shut o the liquid valve with the Allen wrench.
Turn the system on in cooling with fan operating at high velocity.
( Compressor will immediately start, provided 3 minutes have elapsed since the last stop).
After 2 minutes of operation, shut the suction valve with the same wrench.
Turn the system o and switch mains supply o.
Disconnect tubing. After disconnection, protect valves and tubing ends from dust.
Compressor damage may occur if run at a negative suction pressure.
