7.1.2 Preparation for pipework
The preparation of the pipework takes place in five steps. One
main cause of refrigerant leaks is incorrect flanging. Flanging
must be carried out carefully and according to the following
steps.
Step 1: Cutting pipes and cables
Use the installation kit for pipework or the pipes purchased

from your local dealer.
 Measure the distance between the indoor and outdoor
unit.
Cut the pipes slightly longer than the measured distance.

90q
Step 2: Removing burrs
 Remove all burrs from the interface of the pipework.
Hold the pipe end downwards so that no burrs can fall into

the pipe.
Hold facing
downwards
Step 3: Inserting screw nuts
Remove the screw nuts on the outdoor unit.

 Insert the screw nuts into the deburred pipe.
No nuts can be inserted into the pipe after flanging.

Copper pipe
Step 4: Flanging
 Flanging must be carried out as follows with a flanging tool
for R32 refrigerant as shown in the figure.

Step 5: Checks
Compare the flanging with the figure.

If the flanging is visibly damaged, cut the relevant section

off and repeat the flanging.

 Alternatively, use the soldering adapters included in the
scope of supply of the refrigerant pipe (Sangi soldering
adapters).

7.1.3 Pipe connections on the indoor unit
The pipe connection on the indoor unit takes place in two steps.
Step 1: Preparation
 Align the centre of the pipes so that they interlock.
Step 2: Fastening
Solder the pipes in place using nitrogen.

7.1.4 Pipe connections on the outdoor unit
The pipe connection on the outdoor unit takes place in steps.
Step 1: Determining the direction in which the pipes
are to run
 The pipes are to be aligned to the rear
