Performing leak test & insulation
Leak test
 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 responsable of installer to pressurize the
whole system with nitrogen (using a cylinder with pressure reducer)
at a pressure above 30 bar (gauge).
 LEAK TEST WITH R-410A (after opening valves)
Before opening valves, discharge all the nitrogen into the system and
create vacuum. After opening valves check leaks using a leak detector for
refrigerant R-410A.
• Discharge all the nitrogen to create a vacuum and charge the system.
Insulation
Once you have checked that there are no leaks in the system, you can insulate the piping and hose.
1 To avoid condensation problems, place T13.0 or thicker Acrylonitrile Butadien Rubber separately around each refrigerant
pipe.
• Always make the seam of pipes face upwards.
• The insulation has to be produced in full compliance of European
regulation reg. EEC / EU 2037/ 2000 that
requires the use of sheaths insulation form without using CFC and
HCFC gases for health and the environment.
2 Wind insulating tape around the pipes and drain hose avoiding to compress
the insulation too much.
3 Finish wrapping insulating tape around the rest of the pipes leading to the outdoor
unit.
4 The pipes and electrical cables connecting the indoor unit with the outdoor
unit must be fixed to the wall with suitable ducts.
• All refrigerant connection must be accessible, in order to permit
either unit maintenance or removing it completely.
5 Select the insulation of the refrigerant pipe.
 Insulate the gas side and liquid side pipe referring to the thickness
according to the pipe size.
 Indoor temperature of 30°C and humidity of 85% is the stan dard condition.
If installing in a high humidity condition, use one grade thicker insulator by referring to the table below.
If installing in an unfavorable conditions, use thicker one.
 Insulator's heat-resistance temperature should be more than 120°C.
