  • Page 99 V6R VRF 50/60Hz 5.5 Brazing Care must be taken to prevent oxide forming on the inside of copper piping during brazing. The presence of oxide in a refrigerant system adversely affects the operation of valves and compressors, potentially leading to low efficiency or even compressor failure.
  • Page 100 V6R VRF 50/60Hz … box continued from previous page Piping orientation during brazing Brazing should be conducted downwards or horizontally to avoid filler leakage. Figure 3-5.6: Piping orientation during brazing Piping overlap during brazing Table 3-5.3 specifies the minimum permissible piping overlap and the range of permissible gap sizes for brazed joints on piping of different diameters.
  • Page 101 V6R VRF 50/60Hz 5.6 Branch Joints  Notes for installers  Use U-shaped branch joints as specified on the Figure 3-5.8: Branch joint orientation construction drawings – do not replace U-shaped branch joints with tee joints.  To avoid accumulation of oil in the outdoor units, outdoor branch joints should be installed horizontally and must not be higher than the outdoor unit refrigerant outlets.
  • Page 102 V6R VRF 50/60Hz 5.7 Piping Connections between Outdoor Units The piping connecting the outdoor units should be horizontal and must not be higher than the refrigerant outlets. If necessary, to avoid obstacles the piping may be vertically offset below the outlets. When inserting a vertical offset to avoid an obstacle, the whole outdoor piping should be offset, rather than just the section adjacent to the obstacle.
  • Page 103 V6R VRF 50/60Hz 5.8.2 Procedure  Notes for installers Warning Only use nitrogen for flushing. Using carbon dioxide risks leaving condensation in the piping. Oxygen, air, refrigerant, flammable gases and toxic gases must not be used for flushing. Use of such gases may result in fire or explosion. Procedure 1.
  • Page 104 V6R VRF 50/60Hz … box continued from previous page  7. Flush the first opening: Using suitable material, such as a bag or cloth, press firmly against the opening at indoor unit A. When the pressure becomes too high to block with your hand, suddenly remove your hand allowing gas to rush out.

Oxygen, air, flammable gases and toxic gases must not be used for gastightness testing.
  • Page 106 V6R VRF 50/60Hz 5.9.3 Leak detection  Notes for installers The general methods for identifying the source of a leak are as follows: 1. Audio detection: relatively large leaks are audible. 2. Touch detection: place your hand at joints to feel for escaping gas. 3.
  • Page 107 V6R VRF 50/60Hz 5.10.2 Procedure  Notes for installers During vacuum drying, a vacuum pump is used to lower the pressure in the piping to the extent that any moisture present evaporates. At 5mmHg (755mmHg below typical atmospheric pressure) the boiling point of water is 0°C. Therefore a vacuum pump capable of maintaining a pressure of -756mmHg or lower should be used.
