Line Set Routing and Brazing
Do not connect the refrigerant tubing until all
routing and forming of the tubing is complete.
Final connections requires brazing, steps must
be performed by an EPA certied type II or higher
technician.
The Lineset of tubing contains a 3/8” diameter liquid
line, and a 1/2” diameter discharge line.
Note: The openings in the building ceiling or wall,
listed in the next step, are the minimum sizes
recommended for passing the refrigerant lines
through.
2. Have the roong contractor cut a minimum hole
for the refrigerant lines of 1 3/4”. Check local codes,
a separate hole may be required for the electrical
power supply to the condenser.
Caution: Do NOT kink the refrigerant tubing while
routing it.
At Condenser:
1. Remove protective plugs from both connections
and vent the nitrogen from the condenser.
2. Remove the tubing access bracket to allow more
room for brazing.
3. Route the lineset tubes to there connection.
4. Clean tubing ends and position into stubs.
Note: Be sure tube and stubs are round, dress with
swage tool if needed.
At Head:
1. Remove the tubing access bracket to allow more
room for brazing.
1. Conrm connection ball valves are fully closed.
2. Remove protective plugs from both connections.
3. Remove caps from access valve connections.
4. Remove cores from access valves.
5. Connect refrigeration hoses to access valves.
6. Connect dry nitrogen source to liquid line
connection.
7. Shorten tubing to correct length, clean ends and
insert them into valve stubs.
Note: Be sure tube and stubs are round, dress with
swage tool if needed.
8. Add heat sink material to ball valve body.
9. Open nitrogen and ow 1 psi nitrogen into liquid
line tube and braze the liquid line and suction line
tubes to the valve stubs.
10. With nitrogen owing braze the liquid and suction
line connections.
At Condenser:
1. Braze the liquid and suction line connections.
At Head:
1. Remove nitrogen source.
2. Return valve cores to access valves.
3. Connect vacuum pump to both access valves
and evacuate the tubing and head to at least a
300 micron level.
4. Remove vacuum pump and add R-404A to both
tubes to provide a positive pressure.
5. Leak check the all braze connections and repair
any leaks.
6. Open both valves to full open.
Note: The full refrigerant charge is contained in the
receiver of the ice machine.
