DANGER
Never touch electrical components immediately after the power supply has been turned off. Electrical shock
may occur. After turning off the power, always wait 5 minutes or more before touching electrical components.
This air conditioner uses new refrigerant HFC (R410A).
The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant models.
However, pay careful attention to the following points:
Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant models, some of the
piping and installation and service tools are special. (See the table below.)
Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant model with a new refrigerant R410A model, always
replace the conventional piping and flare nuts with the R410A piping and flare nuts.
Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter to prevent erroneous
charging with conventional refrigerant and for safety. Therefore, check beforehand. [The charging port thread
diameter for R410A is 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch.]
Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with refrigerant models.
Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the openings by pinching, taping, etc.
When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition of the gas and liquid
phases, and always charge from the liquid phase side whose composition is stable.
Special tools for R410A
Copper pipes
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes and it is desirable that the amount
of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10m. Do not use copper pipes having a col-
lapsed, deformed or discolored portion (especially on the interior surface). Oth-
erwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube may become blocked with con-
taminants.
As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pressure higher than when using
conventional refrigerant, it is necessary to choose adequate materials.
Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in the table. Never
use copper pipes thinner than that in the table even when it is available on the
market.
DANGER
WARNING
CAUTION
Contents of change
Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a conventional gauge. To prevent erroneous mixing of
other refrigerants, the diameter of each port has been changed.
It is recommended the gauge with seals –0.1 to 5.3 MPa (–76 cmHg to 53 kgf/cm
2
) for high pressure.
–0.1 to 3.8 MPa (–76 cmHg to 38 kgf/cm
2
) for low pressure.
To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base size were changed.
A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a vacuum pump adapter.

While welding the pipes, be sure to blow dry ni-
trogen gas through them.
1. FLARING
(1) Cut the connection pipe to the necessary length with a pipe
cutter.
(2) Hold the pipe downward so that cuttings will not enter the pipe
and remove the burrs.
(3) Insert the flare nut (always use the flare nut attached to the
indoor and outdoor units respectively) onto the pipe and per-
form the flare processing with a flare tool.
Use the special R410A flare tool, or the conventional (for R22)
flare tool.
Check if [L] is flared uniformly
and is not cracked or scratched.

2. BENDING PIPES
The pipes are shaped by your hands. Be careful not to collapse
them.
Do not bend the pipes in an angle more than 90°.
When pipes are repeatedly bent or stretched, the material will
harden, making it difficult to bend or stretch them any more. Do not
bend or stretch the pipes more than three times.
CAUTION
To prevent breaking of the pipe, avoid sharp bends.
Bend the pipe with a radius of curvature of 150 mm
or over.
If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it
will break.
3. CONNECTION PIPES
Indoor unit
(1) Detach the caps and plugs from the pipes.
CAUTION
Be sure to apply the pipe against the port on the
indoor unit correctly. If the centering is improper,
the flare nut cannot be tightened smoothly. If the
flare nut is forced to turn, the threads will be dam-
aged.
Do not remove the flare nut from the indoor unit
pipe until immediately before connecting the con-
nection pipe.
(2) Centering the pipe against port on the indoor unit, turn the flare
nut with your hand.
