NOTE
• Always use nitrogen gas for the air tightness test.
• Absolutely do not open the stop valve until the main power circuit
insulation measurement has been completed. (Measuring after the
stop valve is opened will cause the insulation value to drop.)

• The refrigerant charge port is connected to unit pipe. When
shipped, the unit contains the refrigerant, so use caution when at-
taching the charge hose.

drop within 24 hours, the system passes the test.
If there is a pressure drop, check for leaks, make repairs and perform
the air tight test again.
8CEWWOFT[KPI
Evacuate the system from the suction gas pipe, high/low pressure gas
pipe and liquid pipe stop valve service ports by using a vacuum pump
for more than 2 hours and bring the system to 500 microns (66.5 Pa)
or less. After keeping the system under that condition for more than
1 hour, check if the vacuum gauge rises or not. If it rises, the system
may either contain moisture inside or have leaks.
NOTE
During the rainy season, moisture might enter the piping. If
working during a rainy season and the work takes long enough
for condensation to form inside the pipes, take the following
precautions:
After evacuating the system for 2 hours, pressurize the system to
375,000 microns (0.05 MPa) (vacuum break) with nitrogen gas and
evacuate the system again using the vacuum pump for 1 hour to 500
microns (66.5 Pa) or less (vacuum drying).
