To braze the pipe end

The indoor unit and outdoor unit have flare connections. Connect
both ends without brazing. If brazing should be needed, take the
following into account:
▪ When brazing, blow through with nitrogen to prevent creation of
large quantities of oxidised film on the inside of the piping. This
film adversely affects valves and compressors in the refrigerating
system and prevents proper operation.
▪ Set the nitrogen pressure to 20 kPa (0.2 bar) (just enough so it
can be felt on the skin) with a pressure-reducing valve.

▪ Do NOT use anti-oxidants when brazing pipe joints.
Residue can clog pipes and break equipment.
▪ Do NOT use flux when brazing copper-to-copper refrigerant
piping. Use phosphor copper brazing filler alloy (BCuP), which
does not require flux.
Flux has an extremely harmful influence on refrigerant piping
systems. For instance, if chlorine based flux is used, it will cause
pipe corrosion or, in particular, if the flux contains fluorine, it will
deteriorate the refrigerant oil.
6.3.7 To connect the refrigerant piping to the
indoor unit
WARNING: FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The R32 refrigerant (if applicable) in this unit is mildly

flammable.
▪ Pipe length. Keep refrigerant piping as short as possible.
▪ Flare connections. Connect refrigerant piping to the unit using
flare connections.
▪ Insulation. Insulate the refrigerant piping on the indoor unit as
follows:

3 Tighten the cable ties on the insulation pieces.
4 Wrap the sealing pad from the base of the unit to the top of
the flare nut.
NOTICE
Make sure to insulate all refrigerant piping. Any exposed
piping might cause condensation.

6.4.1

About connecting the electrical wiring

Typical workflow
Connecting the electrical wiring typically consists of the following
stages:
1 Making sure the power supply system complies with the
electrical specifications of the units.
2 Connecting the electrical wiring to the outdoor unit.
3 Connecting the electrical wiring to the indoor unit.
4 Connecting the main power supply.
6.4.2 Precautions when connecting the
electrical wiring
INFORMATION
Also read the precautions and requirements in the
following chapters:
▪ General safety precautions
▪ Preparation
DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION
WARNING
ALWAYS use multicore cable for power supply cables.
WARNING
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
6.4.3 Guidelines when connecting the electrical
wiring
Keep the following in mind:
e f
▪ If stranded conductor wires are being used, install a round crimp-
style terminal on the tip. Place the round crimp-style terminal on
the wire up to the covered part and fasten the terminal with the
appropriate tool.
