  • Page 5: Before Installing The Unit

    Before installing the unit WARNING Do not install the unit where a gas leak may occur. When installing the unit in a hospital, take appropriate measures to reduce noise interference. If gaseous refrigerant leaks and piles up around the unit, it may be ignited.
  • Page 6 Before installing the unit (moving and reinstalling the unit) and performing electrical work CAUTION Properly ground the unit. Periodically check the installation base for damage. Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, water pipe, If the unit is left on a damaged platform, it may fall and lightning rod, or grounding wire from a telephone pole.
  • Page 7 Before the test run CAUTION Turn on the unit at least 12 hours before the test run. Do not operate the unit without panels and safety guards. Keep the unit turned on throughout the season. If the unit is turned off in the middle of a season, it may result in malfunc- Rotating, high-temperature, or high-voltage parts on the unit tions.

  • Page 13: Necessary Tools And Materials

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [2] Necessary Tools and Materials Prepare the following tools and materials necessary for installing and servicing the unit. Tools for use with R410A (Adaptability of tools that are for use with R22 or R407C) 1.
  • Page 14: Piping Materials

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [3] Piping Materials Do not use the existing piping! 1. Copper pipe materials O-material (Annealed) Soft copper pipes (annealed copper pipes). They can easily be bent with hands. 1/2H-material (Drawn) Hard copper pipes (straight pipes). They are stronger than the O-material (Annealed) at the same radial thickness.

Thickness and refrigerant type indicated on the piping materials Ask the pipe manufacturer for the symbols indicated on the piping material for new refrigerant. 5. Flare processing (O-material (Annealed) and OL-material only) The flare processing dimensions for the pipes that are used in the R410A system are larger than those in the R22 system. Flare processing dimensions (mm[in]) A dimension (mm) Pipe size (mm[in])
  • Page 16: Storage Of Piping

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [4] Storage of Piping 1. Storage location Store the pipes to be used indoors. (Warehouse at site or owner's warehouse) If they are left outdoors, dust, dirt, or moisture may infiltrate and contaminate the pipe. 2.
  • Page 17: Brazing

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [6] 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.
  • Page 18: Air Tightness Test

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [7] Air Tightness Test No changes have been made in the detection method. Note that a refrigerant leak detector for R22 will not detect an R410A leak. Halide torch R22 leakage detector 1. Items to be strictly observed Pressurize the equipment with nitrogen up to the design pressure (4.15MPa[601psi]), and then judge the equipment's air tight- ness, taking temperature variations into account.

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [9] Refrigerant Charging Cylinder with a siphon Cylinder without a siphon Cylin- Cylin- Cylinder color R410A is pink. Refrigerant charging in the liquid state Valve Valve liquid liquid 1. Reasons R410A is a pseudo-azeotropic HFC blend (boiling point R32=-52°C[-62°F], R125=-49°C[-52°F]) and can almost be handled the same way as a single refrigerant, such as R22.
  • Page 21: Characteristics Of The Conventional And The New Refrigerants

    [ I Read Before Servicing ] [11] Characteristics of the Conventional and the New Refrigerants 1. Chemical property As with R22, the new refrigerant (R410A) 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.
