Performing the gas leak tests

Makesuretocheckforgasleaksbeforecompletingtheinstallationprocess(connectingtheassemblypipeandhosebetween

indoor unit and outdoor unit, insulating the cables, hose and pipe, and xing the indoor unit to the installation plate).

To check for gas leaks on the outdoor unit,

CheckthevalveAandBusingaleakdetector.

To check for gas leaks on the indoor unit,

Check the are nut C and D using a leak detector.

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 48~50.

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.



To check for any possible leakage, insert inert gas into

the pipes connected to indoor/outdoor units and

check the connection part of the indoor/outdoor units

with soap lather or liquid for leakage test.
