Refrigerant Piping Work

Refrigerant piping
CAUTION
• Use the flare nut fixed to the main unit. (To prevent cracking of the flare nut by aged deterioration.)
• To prevent gas leakage, apply refrigeration oil only to the inner surface of the flare. (Use refrigeration oil for R410A.)
• Use torque wrenches when tightening the flare nuts to prevent damage to the flare nuts and gas leakage.
Align the centres of both flares and tighten the flare nuts 3 or 4 turns by hand. Then tighten them fully with the torque wrenches.

2-1. Caution on piping handling

1) Protect the open end of the pipe against dust and moisture.
2) All pipe bends should be as gentle as possible. Use a pipe bender
for bending.

2-2. Selection of copper and heat insulation materials

• When using commercial copper pipes and fittings, observe the following:
1) Insulation material: Polyethylene foam
Heat transfer rate: 0.041 to 0.052W/mK (0.035 to 0.045kcal/mh°C)
Refrigerant gas pipe's surface temperature reaches 110°C max.
Choose heat insulation materials that will withstand this temperature.
2) Be sure to insulate both the gas and liquid piping and to provide insulation
dimensions as below.

O.D. 9.5mm
3) Use separate thermal insulation for gas and liquid refrigerant pipes.

Do not apply refrigeration
oil to the outer surface.
Flare nut
Do not apply refrigeration oil to
the flare nut to avoid tightening
with excessive torque.
