5.Refrigerant Piping
Use refrigerant R410A in the refrigerant cycle(refer to outdoor nameplate). Do not
charge oxygen, acetylene or other flammable and poisonous gases into the refrigerant cycle
when performing a leakage test or an air-tight test. These types of gases are extremely
dangerous and can cause an explosion. It is recommended that compressed air, nitrogen or
refrigerant be used for these types of tests.
5.1 The Piping Materials
(1) Prepare locally-supplied copper pipes.
(2) Select the piping size from the following table.
36/42K/48K/60K
(3) Select clean copper pipes. Make sure there is no dust and moisture inside. Blow the inside
of the pipes with nitrogen or dry air, to remove any dust or foreign materials before connecting
pipes.
