Air Tightness

Use tools for R-410A to prevent the inow of foreign substances and resist against the internal pressure.

Do not remove the core of lling port.

Use Nitrogen gas for air tightness test as shown in the illustration.
Caution
Apply pressure to the liquid side pipe and gas side
pipe (when installing outdoor units in module) with
Nitrogen gas at 4.1MPa.
If you apply pressure at more than 4.1MPa, pipes may get
damaged. Apply pressure with pressure regulator and pay
attention to the pressure of the nitrogen.
Keep it for minimum 24 hours to check if pressure
drops.
After applying Nitrogen gas, check there's any change of
pressure, using a pressure regulator.
If the pressure drops, check for gas leakage.
If the pressure is changed, apply soap water to check for
leakage and check the pressure of the nitrogen gas again.
Maintain 1.0MPa of the pressure before performing
vacuum drying and check for further gas leakage.
After checking the first gas leakage, maintain 1.0MPa to
check for further gas leakage.
• Perform a Nitrogen gas leak test with the service valve of the outdoor unit closed.
• When charging the nitrogen gas, charge it from the both (high•low pressure) sides.
• If the pipe is lled in a short time with a highly excessive pressure of Nitrogen gas, the pipes may get damaged.
Make sure to use a regulator to prevent the high pressure Nitrogen gas, over 4.1MPa, from entering into the
pipe.
