EDUS39-605 REFNET Pipe System REFNET Joints and Headers 3.3.1 REFNET Joints For gas and liquid branch pipes: Make sure that all branch pipes are fitted so that they branch either horizontally or vertically. When the size of the selected field piping is different from that of the branch pipe, the connecting section should be cut with a pipe cutter as shown in the figure below.
REFNET Pipe System EDUS39-605 Fit cap pipes to the surplus branches if the number of indoor units to be connected is less than the number of branch pipes available. When the size of the selected field piping is different from that of branch pipe cut the connecting section with a pipe cutter as shown in the following figure: When field piping is connected to the B section of the inlet/outlet pipe on the outdoor unit side of the liquid pipe header,cut the B section with a pipe cutter and connect it to the A section.
