5.2 Refrigerant piping
¡
Use the copper pipe that has less than 40 mg/10 m of oil adhesion and 0.8 mm of wall thickness. Never use the thin walled pipe the
thickness of which is less than 0.8 mm.
¡
Use the flare nut attached to the air-conditioner.

Vacuuming
¡
The charge hose for R22 cannot be connected because the service port diameter is different from the conventional one. Use
the special charge hose for R410A.
¡
Use the vacuum pump adapter for reverse flow prevention to check the reverse flow of vacuum pump oil. If oil flows back to
the air-conditioner, it causes failure of refrigerant cycle.
