    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [3] Brazing No changes have been made in the brazing procedures. Perform brazing with special care to keep foreign objects (such as oxide scale, water, and dust) out of the refrigerant system. Example: Inside the brazed connection Use of oxidized solder for brazing Use of non-oxidized solder for brazing 1.

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [4] Air Tightness Test No changes have been made in the detection method. Note that a refrigerant leak detector for R22 will not detect an R407C leak. Halide torch R22 leakage detector 1. Items to be strictly observed Pressurize the equipment with nitrogen up to the design pressure (3.85MPa), and then judge the equipment's air tightness, taking temperature variations into account.

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [8] Characteristics of the Conventional and the New Refrigerants 1. Chemical property As with R22, the new refrigerant (R407C) is low in toxicity and chemically stable nonflammable refrigerant. However, because the specific gravity of vapor refrigerant is greater than that of air, leaked refrigerant in a closed room will accumulate at the bottom of the room and may cause hypoxia.

If it is not, check that the temperature difference between the outlet and inlet temperatures is between 3 and 5 ºC. A temperature difference of 6ºC or more indicates not enough water flow. Check for air pockets in the pipe, and make sure that the pump has the appropriate capacity for the circuit.
