CAUTIONS RELATED TO NEW REFRIGERANT Cautions for units utilizing refrigerant R410A Use new refrigerant pipes. Do not use refrigerant other than R410A. In case of using the existing pipes for R22, be careful with the followings. · Be sure to clean the pipes and make sure that the insides of the pipes are clean.
OCH429--1.qxp 07.11.20 9:17 AM Page 4 [1] Cautions for service (1) Perform service after recovering the refrigerant left in unit completely. (2) Do not release refrigerant in the air. (3) After completing service, charge the cycle with specified amount of refrigerant. (4) When performing service, install a filter drier simultaneously. Be sure to use a filter drier for new refrigerant.
OCH429--1.qxp 07.11.20 9:17 AM Page 5 2-3. CAUTIONS FOR REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK New refrigerant R410A is adopted for replacement inverter series. Although the refrigerant piping work for R410A is same as for R22, exclusive tools are necessary so as not to mix with different kind of refrigerant. Furthermore as the working pressure of R410A is 1.6 time higher than that of R22, their sizes of flared sections and flare nuts are different.
