1. Connect the charge hose from the manifold valve to the service port of
the packed valve at gas side.
2. Connect the charge hose to the port of the vacuum pump.
3. Open fully the low pressure side handle of the gauge manifold valve.
4. Operate the vacuum pump to start evacuating. Perform evacuating for
about 15 minutes if the piping length is 20 meters.
(15 minutes for 20
meters) (assuming a pump capacity of 27 liters per minute) Then confirm
that the compound pressure gauge reading is –101 kPa (–76 cmHg).
5. Close the low pressure side valve handle of the gauge manifold valve.
6.
Open fully the valve stem of the packed valves (both gas and liquid sides).
7. Remove the charging hose from the service port.
8. Securely tighten the caps on the packed valves.
Wiring Connection
1. Remove the valve cover, the electric parts cover and the cord clamp from
the outdoor unit.
2. Connect the connecting cable to the terminal as identified by the matching
numbers on the terminal block of indoor and outdoor unit.
3. Insert the power cord and the connecting cable carefully into the terminal
block and secure it tightly with screws.
4. Use vinyl tape, etc. to insulate the cords which are not going to be used.
Locate them so that they do not touch any electrical or metal parts.
5. Secure the power cord and the connecting cable with the cord clamp.
6. Attach the electric parts cover and the valve cover on the outdoor unit.

Refrigerant Piping Connection
Tightening connection
Align the centers of the connecting pipes and tighten the flare nut as far as
possible with your fingers. Then tighten the nut with a spanner and torque
wrench as shown in the figure.

Tightening torque for connection of flare pipe
The pressure of R410A is higher than R22.
(Approx. 1.6 times.) Therefore securely
tighten the flare pipes which connect the
outdoor unit and the indoor unit with the
specified tightening torque using a torque
wrench. If any flare pipe is incorrectly
connected, it may cause not only
a gas leakage but also trouble in the
refrigeration cycle.
Flaring
1. Cut the pipe with a pipe cutter.

CAUTION
Do not apply excess torque. Otherwise, the nut may crack depending on
the conditions.

After the piping has been connected to the indoor unit, you can perform
vacuuming together at once.
Using a vacuum pump
Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow prevention function so
that inside oil of the pump does not flow backward into pipes of the air
conditioner when the pump stops.
(If oil inside of the vacuum pump enters the air conditioner, which use
R410A, refrigeration cycle trouble may happen.)

CAUTION
•
KEEP IMPORTANT 5 POINTS FOR PIPING WORK.
(1) Take away dust and moisture (inside of the connecting pipes).
(2) Tighten the connections (between pipes and unit).
(3) Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes using a VACUUM PUMP.
(4) Check gas leak (connected points).
(5) Be sure to fully open the packed valves before operation.
AIR PURGE
Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and in the indoor unit using a
vacuum pump. Do not use the refrigerant in the outdoor unit. For details, see
the manual of the vacuum pump.

Packed valve handling precautions
•
Open the valve stem all the way out, but do not try to open it beyond the
stopper.
