Pipe forming/End positioning
Flaring
1. Cut the pipe with a pipe cutter.
2. Insert a flare nut into pipe, and flare the pipe.
As the flaring sizes of R410A differ from those of refrigerant R22, the flare tools newly manufactured for R410A
are recommended.
However, the conventional tools can be used by adjusting projection margin of copper pipe.

Connection of refrigerant pipe
Connect all the refrigerant pipes with flare connecting
work.
• Since the atmospheric pressure only is sealed as the
sealing gas, it is not abnormal that "Pushu..." sound
is not heard when the flare nut is removed.
• Be sure use a double spanner for pipe connecting
work of the indoor unit.

* In case of flaring for R410A with the
conventional flare tool, pull it out
approx. 0.5mm more than that for R22
to adjust to the specified flare size.
The copper pipe gauge is useful for
adjusting projection margin size.
