CAUTION
Use the vacuum pump which vacuum level lower than 
-0.1MPa and the air discharge capacity above 40L/min.
The outdoor unit is not necessary to vacuum, don’t open the 
outdoor unit gas and liquid pipe shut-off valves.
Make sure the vacuum pump could result as -0.1MPa or 
below after 2 hrs or above operation. If the pump operated 3 
hrs or above could not achieve to -0.1MPa or below, please 
check whether water mix or gas leak inside of the pipe.

5.8  Remove dirt or water in the piping
Make  sure  there  is  no  any dirt  or  water before connecting 
the piping to the outdoor units.
Wash the piping with high pressure nitrogen, never use 
refrigerant of the outdoor unit.  
5.9 Gas tight test 
Upon set up the indoor unit pipeline, please connect the Hi-
pressure pipe with shut-off valve firstly.
Weld the pipe at the low pressure side to the meter connector.
Use the vacuum pump discharging air inside the liquid side 
shut-off valve and meter connecter, until to the -1kgf/
CM2
.
Close the vacuum pump, charge 40kgf/
CM2  
nitrogen gas from 
the piston of shut-off valve and from the meter connector. 
Pressure inside should be maintained at there no less than 
24 hrs.
Upon the airtightness test, do a good welding between float 
valve and pipe at the low pressure side.
Pressurized nitrogen˄3.9MPa˗40kgf/
CM2
˅is used for  
airtightness test.
It is not allow to bring pressure on the float valve directly. 
(See Fig. 5-5˅
It is not allow to use oxygen, combustible gas or toxic gas 
to conduct the airtightness test.
When welding, please use wet cloth insulating the low 
pressure valve for protection.
For avoid the equipment be damaged, the pressure 
maintainedtime should not last too long.
Connect with vacuum pump
Perform the pump (last for 2 hrs or above)
When get the vacuum level 
-0.1MPa, the pump should 
keep running for 20-60 mins
Shut down the 
vaccun pump
Place the vaccum state unused (1 hrs or above)
1. Close-off the valve of 
vacuum meter.
2. Cut off the connection 
between pressure meter 
and vacuum pump.
3. Close the vacuum 
pump.

5.11  Refrigerant amount to be added
Calculate the added refrigerant according  to the diameter  and  
the length of the liquid side pipe of the outdoor/indoor unit 
connection. The refrigerant is R410A.

Don’t mix up the different refrigerants or abuse the tools and 
measurements which directly contact with refrigerants.
Don’t adopt refrigerant gas for air vacuuming.
If vacuum level could not get to -0.1MPa, please check whether 
resulted by leakage and confirm the leakage site.If no leakage, 
please operate the vacuum pump again 1 or 2 hrs.
