Pressure test and evacuating system

WARNING
• Do not mix any substance other than the specified refrigerant (R410A) into the refrigeration cycle.
• If refrigerant gas leaks should occur, ventilate the room as soon and as much as possible.
• R410A, as well as other refrigerants, should always be recovered and never be released directly into the environment.
• Use a vacuum pump for R410A exclusively. Using the same vacuum pump for different refrigerants may damage the vacuum
pump or the unit.
• When piping work is complete, it is necessary to perform a pressure test
and evacuate system with a vacuum pump.
• If using additional refrigerant, perform air purging of the refrigerant pipes
and indoor unit using a vacuum pump, then charge additional refrigerant.
• Use a hexagonal wrench (3/16 inch (4mm)) to operate the stop valve rod.
• All refrigerant pipe joints should be tightened with a torque wrench to the
specified tightening torque.
1) Pressurize the liquid pipe and gas pipe from the service ports of each stop valve to 550psi (3.8MPa) (do not pressurize
more than 550psi (3.8MPa)) for 1 hour minimum, 24 hours recommended. If there is a pressure drop, check for leaks,
make repairs and perform the pressure test again.
2) Connect projection side of charging hose (which comes from gauge manifold) to gas stop valve's service port.
3) Fully open gauge manifold's low-pressure valve (Lo) and completely close its high-pressure valve (Hi).
(High-pressure valve subsequently requires no operation.)
4) Evacuate system using vacuum pump to below 500 microns for 1 hour minimum.
5) Close gauge manifold's low-pressure valve (Lo) and stop vacuum pump.
(Leave as is for 4-5 minutes and make sure the coupling meter needle does not go back.
If it does go back, this may indicate the presence of moisture or leaking from connecting parts. After inspecting all the
connection and loosening then retightening the nuts, repeat steps 3-5.)
6) Remove covers from liquid stop value and gas stop valve.
7) Turn the liquid stop valve's rod 90° counter-clockwise with a hexagonal wrench to open the valve.
Close it after 5 seconds, and check for gas leakage.
Using soapy water, check for gas leakage from indoor unit's flare and outdoor unit's flare and valve rods.
After the check is complete, wipe all soapy water off.
8) Disconnect charging hose from gas stop valve's service port, then fully open liquid and gas stop valves.
(Do not attempt to turn valve rod beyond its stop.)
9) Tighten valve caps and service port caps for the liquid and gas stop valves with a torque wrench to the specified torques.
Refer to "3. Refrigerant Piping" on page 8 for details.
