Use a standard separation tube for pipe branching. Do not use a T tube as it does not
separate the refrigerant evenly.

* If the selected pipe diameter based on table "E" becomes larger than the pipe diameter
based on table "C", please select the pipe whose diameter is equal to the table "C".
Gas pipe of table "E" should be compared with suction gas pipe of table "C."
(If pipe diameter E > C, select pipe size from table C)
* "Total cooling capacity of indoor unit" is the total value for the cooling capacity of indoor

Protection of pipes
4. 3.
Protect the pipes to prevent the entry of moisture and dust.
•
Especially pay attention when passing the pipes through a hole or connecting the
•
end of a pipe to the outdoor unit.

Brazing
5. 1.
CAUTION
If air or different type of refrigerant enters
the refrigeration cycle, the internal pres-
sure in the refrigeration cycle will become
abnormally high and prevent the unit from
exerting its full performance.
Fig.
Pressure regulating valve
Brazing area
Nitrogen gas
Cap
Apply nitrogen gas while brazing the
pipes.
Nitrogen gas pressure: 0.02 MPa (= suf-
fi
cient pressure to be felt on the back of
your hand or more)
If a pipe is brazed without applying nitrogen gas, it will create an oxidation
fi
lm.
This can degrade performance or damage the parts in the unit (such as the com-
pressor or valves).
Do not use
fl
ux to braze pipes. If the
fl
ux is the chlorine type, it will cause the pipes
to corrode.
In addition, if the
fl
ux contains
fl
uoride, it will affect the refrigerant piping system due to
deterioration of refrigerant oil.
For brazing material, use phosphor copper that does not require
fl
ux.
