4.6. Addition of refrigerant
• Additional charging is not necessary if the pipe length does not exceed 30 m, 100 ft
• If the pipe length exceeds the specifi ed length above, charge the unit with addi-
tional R410A refrigerant according to the permitted pipe lengths in the chart below.
* When the unit is stopped, charge the unit with the additional refrigerant through
the liquid stop valve after the pipe extensions and indoor unit have been vacu-
umized.
When the unit is operating, add refrigerant to the gas check valve using a
safety charger. Do not add liquid refrigerant directly to the check valve.

Do not use a wrench here.
Refrigerant leakage may result.
Use two wrenches here.
* The fi gure to the left is an example only.
The stop valve shape, service port po-
sition, etc., may vary according to the
model.
* Turn section A only.
(Do not further tighten sections A and B
together.)

4.4. Refrigerant pipe airtight testing method
(1) Connect the testing tools.
• Make sure the stop valves A B are closed and do not open them.
• Add pressure to the refrigerant lines through the service port C of the liquid stop valve
D.
(2) Do not add pressure to the specifi ed pressure all at once; add pressure little by little.
1 Pressurize to 0.5 MPa (5 kgf/cm
does not decrease.
2 Pressurize to 1.5 MPa (15 kgf/cm
does not decrease.
3 Pressurize to 4.15 MPa (41.5 kgf/cm
and refrigerant pressure.
(3) If the specifi ed pressure holds for about one day and does not decrease, the pipes have
passed the test and there are no leaks.
• If the surrounding temperature changes by 1 °C, the pressure will change by about
0.01MPa (0.1 kgf/cm
(4) If the pressure decreases in steps (2) or (3), there is a gas leak. Look for the source of
the gas leak.
4.5. Stop valve opening method
(1) Gas side (Fig. 4-5)
1 Remove the cap, pull the handle toward you and rotate 1/4 turn in a counter-
clockwise direction to open.
2 Make sure that the stop valve is open completely, push in the handle and rotate
the cap back to its original position.
(2) Liquid side (Fig. 4-6)
1 Remove the cap and turn the valve rod counterclockwise as far as it will go with
the use of a 4 mm hexagonal wrench. Stop turning when it hits the stopper.
(ø6.35, 1/4 inch: Approximately 4.5 revolutions) (ø9.52, 3/8 inch: Approximately
10 revolutions)
2 Make sure that the stop valve is open completely, push in the handle and rotate
he cap back to its original position.

Refrigerant pipes are protectively wrapped
• The pipes can be protectively wrapped up to a diameter of ø90 mm, 3-35/64
inch before or after connecting the pipes. Cut out the knockout in the pipe cover
following the groove and wrap the pipes.
Pipe inlet gap
• Use putty or sealant to seal the pipe inlet around the pipes so that no gaps
remain.(If the gaps are not closed, noise may be emitted or water and dust will
enter the unit and breakdown may result.)
Precautions when using the charge valve (Fig.4-7)
Do not tighten the service port too much when installing it, otherwise, the valve
core could be deformed and become loose, causing a gas leak.
After positioning section B in the desired direction, turn section A only and tighten it.
Do not further tighten sections A and B together after tightening section A.
Warning:
When installing the unit, securely connect the refrigerant pipes before start-
ing the compressor.
* After charging the unit with refrigerant, note the added refrigerant amount on
the service label (attached to the unit).
Refer to the "1.5. Using R410A refrigerant air conditioners" for more information.
• Be careful when installing multiple units. Connecting to an incorrect indoor unit
can lead to abnormally high pressure and have a serious effect on operation per-
formance.

I Double spanner section
(Do not apply a spanner other than to this sec-
tion.Doing so would cause refrigerant leaks.)

(Seal the end of the heat insulation material at
the pipe connection section with whatever seal
material you have on hand so that water does
not infi ltrate the heat insulation material.)
