4-1. PURGING PROCEDURES AND LEAK TEST
4-2. GAS CHARGE
Performgaschargetounit.
1)Connectgascylindertotheserviceportofstopvalve.
2)Performairpurgeofthepipe(orhose)comingfromrefrigerantgascylinder.
3)Replenishspeciedamountoftherefrigerant,whileoperatingtheairconditioner
forcooling.
Note:
Incaseofaddingrefrigerant,complywiththequantityspeciedfortherefrigerat-
ingcycle.
CAUTION:
Whenchargingtherefrigerantsystemwithadditionalrefrigerant,besuretouseliquid
refrigerant.Addinggasrefrigerantmaychangethecompositionoftherefrigerantin
thesystemandaffectnormaloperationoftheairconditioner.Also,chargetheliquid
refrigerantslowly,otherwisethecompressorwillbelocked.
Tomaintainthehighpressureofthegascylinder,warmthegascylinderwithwarm
water(under40°C)duringcoldseason.Butneverusenakedreorsteam.
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gaspipesideoftheoutdoorunit.
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-0.101MPa[Gauge](-760mmHg).
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.

3-2. PIPE CONNECTION
1)Applyathincoatofrefrigerationoil(G)tothearedendsofthepipesandthepipecon-
nectionsoftheoutdoorunit.Donotapplyrefrigerationoilonscrewthreads.Excessive
tighteningtorquewillresultindamageonthescrew.
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.
When installing the unit, securely
connect the refrigerant pipes before
starting the compressor.
When there are the ports which are
not used, make sure their nuts are
tightened securely.
