• Insulate all joints
adequately.
5-17. Insulation Work
Work procedure
Material

Example : Heat insulating polyethylene foam (Heat insulating 120°C or more)
Insulation guidelines
All insulation work for brazed joints, flared joints, etc., should be performed only after successfully passing the
leak test. Gas pipes and liquid pipes must be insulated separately in Super MMS air conditioning system.
