• Do not vent R410A into atmosphere.
R410A is a
greenhouse gas with a Global Warning Potential(GWP)=2088.
• Make sure that no air enters the refrigerant circuit when the unit is installed
and removed.
If air enters the refrigerant circuit, the pressure in the refrigerant circuit will become too high, which
can cause burst and personal injury.
• Be sure to use the prescribed pipes,
nuts and tools for R410A.
Using existing parts (for R22 or R407C) can cause refrigerant circuit burst resulting in unit failure and
personal injury.
• Be sure to connect both liquid and gas connecting pipes properly before op-
erating the compressor.
Do not open the liquid and gas service valves before completing piping
work, and evacuation.
If the compressor is operated when connecting pipes are not connected and service valves are
open, air can be sucked into the refrigerant circuit which can cause anomalous high pressure result-
ing in burst or personal injury.
• Be sure to tighten the
nuts to
torque using the torque wrench.
Tightening
nuts with excess torque can cause burst and refrigerant leakage after a long period.
• During pump down work, be sure to stop the compressor before closing ser-
vice valves and removing connecting pipes.
If the connecting pipes are removed when the compressor is in operation and service valves areopen,
air can be sucked into the refrigerant circuit which can cause anomalous high pressure resulting in
burst or personal injury.
• In the event of refrigerant leakage during installation, be sure to ventilate the
working area properly.
If the refrigerant comes into contact with naked
poisonous gases will be produced.
• Electrical work must be carried out by the
electrician, strictly in ac-
cordance with national or regional electricity regulations.
Incorrect installation can cause electric shock, or personal injury.
• Make sure that earth leakage breaker and circuit breaker of appropriate ca-
pacities are installed.
Circuit breaker should be able to disconnect all poles under over current. Absence of appropriate
breakers can cause electric shock, personal injury or property damage.
