Brazing Connections
Connect vapor tube to fitting on outdoor unit vapor service valves (see
Table 2). Connect liquid tubing to adapter tube on liquid service valve.
Use refrigerant grade tubing.
Notes:
1.Do not apply capillary tube indoor coils to these units.
2.For Tubing Set lengths between 80 and 200 ft. (24 and 61 m) horizontal or
20 ft. (6.1 m) vertical differential, refer to the Residential Piping and Long Line
Guideline.
Apply heat absorbing paste or heat sink product between service valve
and joint. Wrap service valves with a heat sinking material such as a wet
cloth.
After wrapping service valve with a wet cloth, tubing set can be brazed
to service valve using either silver bearing or non–silver bearing brazing
material. Do not use soft solder (materials which melt below
800°F/427°C). Consult local code requirements.
NOTE: Some outdoor units contain a mechanical fitting at the liquid
distributor. This connection is not field serviceable and should not be
disturbed.
NOTE: For Liquid Service Valve - Braze lineset to adapter tube
BEFORE bolting adapter to valve. This helps prevent overheating and
damage to plastic washer or o-ring.
For Vapor Service Valve - remove valve core from schrader port on
Service Valve BEFORE brazing. This helps prevent overheating and
damage to valve seals (refer to Fig. 5). Replace valve core when brazing
is completed.

Clean line set tube ends with emery cloth or steel brush. Remove any grit
or debris.
Insert line set tube ends into service valve tube stubs.
Apply heat absorbing paste or heat sink product between service valve
and joint. Wrap service valves with a heat sinking material such as a wet
cloth.
Braze joints using a Sil-Fos or Phos-copper alloy.
