AIR CONDITIONER WITH R-410A–QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
• R-410A refrigerant operates at 50%-70% higher pressures than R-22. Be sure that servicing
equipment and replacement components are designed to operate with R-410A.
• R-410A refrigerant cylinders have a dip tube which allows liquid to flow out with the cylinder in a vertical
position with the valve at the top.
• R-410A systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device
in the manifold hose in order to vaporize the liquid refrigerant before it enters in the unit.
• The R-410A, as for other HFC, is only compatible with oils chosen by the compressor
manufacturer. For this reason, for the type of oil to be used, always refer to the plate on the
compressor and the unit.
• A vacuum pump is not enough to remove moisture from oil.
• Oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere.
• Never open system to atmosphere while it is under vacuum.
• When the system must be opened for service, break vacuum with dry nitrogen and replace filter
driers.
• Do not vent R-410A into the atmosphere.
• Use only Carrier matching indoor units (Table I).
