○ ○ —— Cutting Pipe Removing Burrs
Flaring Tool ○ ○■ * R410A requires high pressure resistance piping and
larger aring. In case of material 1/2H, aring is not
available.(The aring tools for R410A are applicable to
R407C)

Pipe Bender ○ ○
* In case of material 1/2H, bending is not available.
Use elbow for bend and braze.

Expanding Tool ○ ○
* In case of material 1/2H, expanding of tube is not
available. Use joint for connecting tube.
Expanding Tubes
Torque Wrench ○
■
* For Φ1/2in., Φ5/8in. of R410A, spanner size is up to
5/64in.
Connection of Flare Nut
○
* For Φ1/4in.

Φ3/8.
,
Φ3/4in., spanner size is the
same.
Brazing Tool ○ ○ * Perform brazing work properly Brazing for Tubes
Nitrogen Gas ○ ○
* Strict control against contamination (Blow nitrogen
during brazing.)
Prevention from Oxidation
during Brazing Air-tight test
Lubrication Oil (for
Flare Surface)
● ■
* Use a synthetic oil which is equivalent to the oil used
in the refrigerant cycle.
* Synthetic oil absorbs moisture quickly.

Vacuum Pump ○ ○
★
The current pumps are applicable. However, it is
required to mount a vacuum pump adapter which can
prevent reverse ow when a vacuum pump stops,
resulting in no reverse oil ow.

Control Valve ● ■ * No interchangeability is available due to higher
pressures when compared with R22. Connection
diameter is dierent: R410A: UNFl/2, R407C: UNF7/16
★
Do not use old ones to the dierent refrigerant.
Otherwise,
mineral oil will ow into the cycle and cause sludges,
resulting in clogging or compressor failure.
