Refrigerant piping

CAUTION
Install in rooms that are 5 m
a leak of refrigerant gas occurs inside the
room, an oxygen defi ciency may occur.
Detaching the Valve cover
Remove the 5 screws.
• Pull the valve cover in the direction of the arrow, and remove it.
Refrigerant Piping Connection

1. Cut the pipe with a pipe cutter.
90°
2. Remove the burr inside of the pipe.
When removing the burr, be careful so that chips do not fall into the pipe.
3. Remove the fl are nuts attached to the outdoor/indoor unit, then insert them
into each of the pipes.
4. Flare the pipes.

Pipe connection
1. Make wire and pipe connections for each indoor unit separately.
2. Align the centres of the connecting pipes and tighten the fl are nut as much
as possible with your fi ngers, then tighten the nut using a torque wrench.
Be sure to tighten the nut at the specifi ed torque value.
• If you use one outdoor unit for several indoor units of a different class,
connect the largest one fi rst A, then connect the rest in the order B to C.
• Do not remove the fl are nuts for any ports you are not going to use for
connection.
• Do not leave the fl are nut unattached for a long period of time.
• Use a different-diameter joint if the diameters of the connection port and
connection piping are different.
• Mount the different-diameter joint on the connection port of the outdoor
unit.
CAUTION
• KEEP IMPORTANT 6 POINTS FOR
PIPING WORK.
(1) Take away dust and moisture (inside
of the connecting pipes).
(2) Tighten the connections (between
pipes and unit).
(3) Evacuate the air in the connecting
pipes using a VACUUM PUMP.
(4) Check gas leak (connected points).
(5) Be sure to fully open the packed
valves before operation.
(6) Reusable mechanical connectors
and fl ared joints are not allowed
indoors. When mechanical
connectors are reused indoors,
sealing parts shall be renewed.
When fl ared joints are reused
indoors, the fl are part shall be
refabricated.
Air Purge
From the sake of environmental protection, use a vacuum pump to extract the
air during installation.
* Prepare a 4 mm hexagon wrench.

of R32 refrigerant can be avoided.
2. Open the Handle Low of the gauge manifold valve fully, then operate the
vacuum pump.
• Loosen the fl are nut of the at the gas end a little to make sure that air is
taken in, then tighten the nut.
• If you fi nd air is not taken in, make sure that the charge hose is
connected to the port(s) securely.
• Perform extraction for about 15 or more minutes and make sure that the
compound pressure gauge reading is –101 kPa (–76 cmHg).
• If the compound pressure gauge reading is not –101 kPa (–76 cmHg),
there is a possibility air is being taken in from the port(s).
• Make sure that the charge hose is connected to the port(s) securely.
