5. Welding the piping
• Check that the connection piping is securely inserted into the branch pipe before welding.
CAUTION
• During piping work, apply nitrogen gas while brazing the pipes. If pipes are brazed without ap-
plying nitrogen gas, it will create a large amount of oxidation film, which will cause a critical
malfunction.
• To prevent moisture or foreign matter from entering during work, do not leave the piping open.
• Refer to installation manual supplied with the outdoor unit for sealing test evacuation proce-
dures.
• Do not weld the rubber on the branch pipe. (UTP-SX372A only)
