  • Page 4 1-3. Cautions for refrigerant piping work New refrigerant R410A is adopted for replacement inverter series. Although the refrigerant piping work for R410A is the same as for R22, exclusive tools are necessary so as not to mix with different kind of refrigerant. Furthermore as the work- ing pressure of R410A is 1.6 times higher than that of R22, their sizes of flared sections and flare nuts are different.
