Installation Procedure Step 8 Vacuum drying the refrigerant The time required to perform each evacuation will depend on the capacity (CFM) of the vacuum pump used. circuit 1 Use a micron gauge to measure the degree of vacuum during the evacuation step. The micron gauge should be placed as far as possible from the pump in order to HIGH PRESSURE LEAK TEST WITH DRY ensure an accurate reading.
12 Reconnect the common hose to the vacuum pump. Step 9 Adjusting refrigerant (R-410A) Repeat steps 6 through 11, alternating between breaking the vacuum with dry nitrogen and The outdoor unit comes with an optimized amount of evacuating, until system evacuation has occurred refrigerant for the outdoor unit combined with an indoor three times, to the following vacuum levels: unit registered in AHRI.

Installation Procedure Calculating the additional refrigerant charge When installing the outdoor unit with the AHRI listed combinations: When installing in a retrofit application Total refrigerant amount = Amount charged at factory + Amount of refrigerant addition/reduction by internal volume When installing in a retrofit application (and internal coil volume of indoor unit is not known) 1) See Table1.
Charging the system with liquid refrigerant Step 10 Draining the water naturally R-410A is a mixed type of refrigerant. It is necessary When using the air conditioner in the heating mode, ice for recharging under conditions of liquid. When may accumulate. During de-icing (defrost operation), the charging refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder to the defrosting water must be drained off safely.
Installation Procedure 2 Select the insulation of the refrigerant pipe. Step 12 Performing final check and • Insulate the gas side pipe referring to the trial operation thickness according to the pipe size. • 1 Check the power supply between the outdoor unit and humidity of 85% is the standard condition.
