Pipe material
Phosphorus deoxidized copper seamless pipe (TP2M) for air conditioner .
Allowable pipe length and drop
These parameters differ according to the outdoor unit . See the instruction manual attached with the outdoor unit
for details .
Supplementary refrigerant
The refrigerant supplementation shall be as specified in the installation instructions attached with the outdoor unit .
The adding procedure shall be aided with a measuring meter for a specified amount of supplemented refrigerant .
Note:
Overfilling or underfilling of refrigerant will cause compressor fault . The amount of the added refrigerant shall be as
specified in the instructions .
Connection of refrigerant pipe
Conduct flared connection work to connect all refrigerant pipes .
The connection of indoor unit pipes must use double spanners .
The installing torque shall be as given in the following table .

Creating vacuum
With a vacuum pump, create vacuum from the stop valve of the outdoor unit . Emptying with refrigerant sealed in
the outdoor unit is absolutely forbidden .
Open all valves
Open all the valves on the outdoor unit .
Gas leakage detection
Check with a leakage detector or soap water if there is gas leakage at the pipe connections and bonnets .
lnsulation treatment
Conduct insulation treatment on both the gas side and liquid side of pipes respectively .
During cooling operation, both the liquid and gas sides are cold and thus shall be insulated so
as to avoid dew generation .
The insulating material at gas side shall be resistant to a temperature above 120 C
The indoor unit pipe connection part shall be insulated .
