Precautions for New Refrigerant (R-410A) 283
1.3 Service Tools
R-410A is used under higher working pressure, compared to previous refrigerants 
(R-22,R-407C). Furthermore, the refrigerating machine oil has been changed from Suniso oil to Ether oil,
and if oil mixing is occurred, sludge results in the refrigerants and causes other problems. Therefore,
gauge manifolds and charge hoses that are used with a previous refrigerant (R-22,R-407C) can not be
used for products that use new refrigerants.
Be sure to use dedicated tools and devices.
 Tool compatibility
As for the charge mouthpiece and packing, 1/2UNF20 is necessary for mouthpiece size of charge
hose.
 Copper tube material and thickness

Do not use the same tools for R-22 and R-
410A.
Thread specification differs for R-410A
and R-407C.
Charging cylinder    Weighting instrument used for HFCs.
Gas detector    The same tool can be used for HFCs.
Vacuum pump
(pump with reverse flow
preventive function)

 To use existing pump for HFCs, vacuum
pump adapter must be installed.
Weighting instrument 
Charge mouthpiece 
Seal material is different between R-22
and HFCs.
 Thread specification is different between
R-410A and others.
Flaring tool (Clutch type)   For R-410A, flare gauge is necessary.
Torque wrench   Torque-up for 1/2 and 5/8
Pipe cutter 
Pipe expander 
Pipe bender 
Pipe assembling oil 
 Due to refrigerating machine oil change.
(No Suniso oil can be used.)
Refrigerant recovery

Check your recovery device.
Refrigerant piping See the chart below.
 Only 19.1 is changed to 1/2H material
while the previous material is "O".
