Remove Dirt or Water in the Piping

Make sure there is no any dirt or water before
connecting the piping to the outdoor units.
Wash the piping with high pressure nitrogen, never
use refrigerant of the outdoor unit.

Airtight Test

1. Connect piping on hi-pressure side with hi-pressure
valve. (For multi-modules parallel connection, please
connect gas and oil balance valves.)
2. Weld the piping on low-pressure side with gauge joint.
3. Charge nitrogen from hi-pressure valve core and gauge
joint.
4. After airtight test, weld low-pressure ball valve and
piping on low--pressure side.
1. Pressured nitrogen [2.94MPa (30kg/cm ) should be used in the
airtight test.
2. Do not connect piping on low-pressure side and low-pressure ball
valve before charging nitrogen.
3. The airtight test should never use any oxygen, flammable gas
or poisonous gas.
4. Wrap low-pressure valve and balance valves with wet cloth while welding.

Vacuum with vacuum pump

Do vacuum with vacuum pump instead of refrigerant.
Vacuuming should be done from liquid and gas side
simultaneously. The pressure should be lower than
30Pa.
Open all valves
Refrigerant Amount to be Added
Calculate the added refrigerant according to the diameter
and the length of the liquid side pipe of the ou tdoor/indoor
unit connection. The refrigerant is R22.
