4.2. Connecting pipes (Fig. 4-1)
• When commercially available copper pipes are used, wrap liquid and gas pipes
with commercially available insulation materials (heat-resistant to 100 °C or more,
thickness of 12 mm or more).
• The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam
insulation materials (specific gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm or more).
• Apply thin layer of refrigerant oil to pipe and joint seating surface before tightening
flare nut. A
• Use two wrenches to tighten piping connections. B
• Use leak detector or soapy water to check for gas leaks after connections are
completed.
• Apply refrigerating machine oil over the entire flare seat surface. C
• Use the flare nuts for the following pipe size. D
Gas side Pipe size (mm)
Liquid side Pipe size (mm)
• When bending the pipes, be careful not to break them. Bend radii of 100 mm to
150 mm are sufficient.
• Make sure the pipes do not contact the compressor. Abnormal noise or vibration
may result.
1 Pipes must be connected starting from the indoor unit.
Flare nuts must be tightened with a torque wrench.
2 Flare the liquid pipes and gas pipes and apply a thin layer of refrigeration oil (Ap-
plied on site).
• When usual pipe sealing is used, refer to Table 1 for flaring of R32 refrigerant
pipes.
The size adjustment gauge can be used to confirm A measurements.

3 Use the following procedure for connecting the gas-side piping. (Fig. 4-3)
1 Braze the E Joint pipe provided to the outdoor unit using locally procured brazing
materials and C Local piping without oxygen.
2 Connect the E Joint pipe to the gas-side Stop valve.
Use 2 wrenches to tighten the flare nut.
* If order is reversed, refrigerant leak occurs because of the part damaging by
brazing fire.
• For PEA-M200, 250
The method of pipe connection is brazing connection.

4.3. Refrigerant piping (Fig. 4-4)
Remove the service panel D (3 screws) and the cover panel front A (2 screws) and
cover panel rear B (4 screws).
1 Perform refrigerant piping connections for the indoor/outdoor unit when the out-
door unit's stop valve is completely closed.
2 Vacuum-purge air from the indoor unit and the connection piping.
3 After connecting the refrigerant pipes, check the connected pipes and the indoor
unit for gas leaks. (Refer to 4.4. Refrigerant pipe airtight testing method)
4 A high-performance vacuum pump is used at the stop valve service port to main-
tain a vacuum for an adequate time (at least one hour after reaching –101 kPa (5
Torr)) in order to vacuum dry the inside of the pipes. Always check the degree of
vacuum at the gauge manifold. If there is any moisture left in the pipe, the degree
C
of vacuum is sometimes not reached with short-time vacuum application.
After vacuum drying, completely open the stop valves (both liquid and gas) for the
outdoor unit. This completely links the indoor and outdoor refrigerant circuits.
• If the vacuum drying is inadequate, air and water vapor remain in the refrigerant
circuits and can cause abnormal rise of high pressure, abnormal drop of low
pressure, deterioration of the refrigerating machine oil due to moisture, etc.
• If the stop valves are left closed and the unit is operated, the compressor and
B control valves will be damaged.
• Use a leak detector or soapy water to check for gas leaks at the pipe connec-
tion sections of the outdoor unit.
• Do not use the refrigerant from the unit to purge air from the refrigerant lines.
• After the valve work is completed, tighten the valve caps to the correct torque:
20 to 25 N·m (200 to 250 kgf·cm).
Failure to replace and tighten the caps may result in refrigerant leakage. In
addition, do not damage the insides of the valve caps as they act as a seal to
prevent refrigerant leakage.
5 Use sealant to seal the ends of the thermal insulation around the pipe connection
sections to prevent water from entering the thermal insulation.
