Refrigerant piping

CAUTION
• Use the flare nut fixed to the main unit. (This is to prevent the flare nut from cracking as a result of deterioration over time.)
• To prevent gas leakage, apply refrigeration oil only to the inner surface of the flare. (Use refrigeration oil for R410A.)
• Use a torque wrench when tightening the flare nuts to prevent damage to the flare nuts and gas leakage.
• Align the centers of both flares and tighten the flare nuts 3 or 4 turns by hand, then tighten them fully with a spanner and a
torque wrench.
Do not apply refrigeration
oil to the outer surface.
Flare nut
Do not apply refrigeration oil to
the flare nut to avoid tightening
with excessive torque.

2-1. Caution on piping handling

• Protect the open end of the pipe against dust and moisture.
• All pipe bends should be as gentle as possible. Use a pipe bender for
bending.

2-2. Selection of copper and heat insulation materials

When using commercial copper pipes and fittings, observe the following:
• Insulation material: Polyethylene foam
Heat transfer rate: 0.041 to 0.052W/mK (0.024 to 0.030Btu/fth°F (0.035 to
0.045kcal/mh°C))
Be sure to use insulation that is designed for use with HVAC Systems.
• ACR Copper only.
• Be sure to insulate both the gas and liquid piping and observe the insulation dimensions as below.

Liquid side
• Use separate thermal insulation pipes for gas and liquid refrigerant pipes.
