CAUTION
• CAUTION TO BE TAKEN WHEN BRAZING REFRIGERANT PIPING
Do not use flux when brazing refrigerant piping. Use the phosphor copper brazing filter metal (BCuP) which does not
require flux.
Flux has an extremely negative effect on refrigerant piping systems. For example, if chlorine based flux is used, it will
cause pipe corrosion. If the flux contains fluorine, it will damage the refrigerant oil.
• When brazing the refrigerant piping, only begin brazing after having carried out nitrogen substitution (NOTE 1) or
while inserting nitrogen into the refrigerant piping (NOTE 2). Once this is done, connect the indoor unit with a flared or
a flanged connection.
DANGER
• Use of oxygen may cause an explosion resulting in serious injury or death. Only use nitrogen gas.
NOTE
1. Refer to the Manual for Multi Installation for Buildings for directions on how to carry out nitrogen substitution. Ask
your dealer.
2. Nitrogen should be set to 2.9 psi with a pressure-reducing valve if brazing while inserting nitrogen into the piping.
(Refer to Fig. 14)
• After checking for gas leaks, be sure to insulate the pipe connections using the supplementary piping insulation
tubing and insulating tape (4). The insulating tape (4) should be wrapped from the L-shaped bend all the way to the
end inside the unit. (Refer to Fig. 15)
CAUTION
• Be sure to insulate any field piping all the way to the piping connection inside the unit. Any exposed piping may cause
condensate or burns if touched.
