3-2. PIPE CONNECTION

1)Applyathincoatofrefrigerationoil(G)tothearedendsofthepipesandthe

pipe connections of the outdoor unit.

2) Align the center of the pipe with that of the pipe connections of the outdoor unit,

thenhandtightenthearenut3to4turns.

3)Tightenthearenutwithatorquewrenchasspeciedinthetable.

• Over-tighteningmay causedamage to theare nut,resulting in refrigerant

leakage.

• Besuretowrapinsulationaroundthepiping.Directcontactwiththebarepiping

may result in burns or frostbite.

3-3. INSULATION AND TAPING

1)Coverpipingjointswithpipecover.

2)Foroutdoorunitside,surelyinsulateeverypipingincludingvalves.

3) Using piping tape (E), apply taping starting from the entry of outdoor unit.

• Stoptheendofpipingtape(E)withtape(withadhesiveagentattached).

• Whenpipinghavetobearrangedthroughaboveceiling,closetorwherethe

temperature and humidity are high, wind additional commercially sold insulation

topreventcondensation.

WARNING

When installing the unit, securely

connect the refrigerant pipes before

starting the compressor.

CAUTION

When there are the ports which are

not used, make sure their nuts are

tightened securely.

3-1. FLARING WORK

1) Cut the copper pipe correctly with pipe cutter. (Fig. 1, 2)

2)Completelyremoveallburrsfromthecutcrosssectionof

pipe. (Fig. 3)

• Aimthecopperpipedownwardwhileremovingburrsto

preventburrsfromdroppinginthepipe.

3)Removearenutsattachedtoindoorandoutdoorunits,

thenputthemonpipehaving completedburrremoval.

(Notpossibletoputthemonafteraringwork.)

4)Flaringwork (Fig.4,5).Firmly holdcopperpipe inthe

dimension shown in the table. Select A inch (mm) from

the table according to the tool selected.

5)Check

• ComparethearedworkwithFig.6.

• Ifareisnotedtobedefective,cutoffthearedsection

anddoaringworkagain.

4-1. PURGING PROCEDURES AND LEAK TEST

1)Removeserviceportcapofstopvalveonthesideoftheoutdoorunitgaspipe.(The

stopvalvesarefullyclosedandcoveredincapsintheirinitialstate.)

2)Connectgaugemanifoldvalveandvacuumpumptoserviceportofstopvalveon

the side of the outdoor unit gas pipe.

3)Runthevacuumpump.(Vacuumizeformorethan15minutes.)

4)Checkthevacuumwithgaugemanifoldvalve,thenclosegaugemanifoldvalve,

andstopthevacuumpump.

5)Leaveasitisforoneortwominutes.Makesurethepointerofgaugemanifoldvalve

remainsinthesameposition.Conrmthatpressuregaugeshows-14.7psi[Gauge]

(-0.101 MPa).

6)Removegaugemanifoldvalvequicklyfromserviceportofstopvalve.

7)Fullyopenallstopvalvesonthegaspipeandtheliquidpipe.Operatingwithout

fully opening lowers the performance and this causes trouble.

8)Referto1-2.,andchargetheprescribedamountofrefrigerantifneeded.Besure

to charge slowly with liquid refrigerant. Otherwise, composition of the refrigerant in

the system may be changed and affect performance of the air conditioner.

9)Tightencapofserviceporttoobtaintheinitialstatus.
