General notes before performing pipe work........................................................................................... 52 3.1.1. Piping Materials.......................................................................................................................................... 52 3.1.2. Three principles on refrigerant piping work..................................................................
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.1 General notes before performing pipe work 3.1.1 Piping Materials 1 In order to avoid supply problems in terms of local regulations and quality, prepare locally-supplied copper pipes. NOTE In case of using copper pipes for piping sections bigger than Ø19.05 mm (3/4 inches), flaring work cannot be performed. If necessary, use a joint adapter. 2 Select the piping size with the correct thickness and correct material able to withstand sufficient pressure.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge CAUTION • Cap the end of the pipe when pipe is to be inserted through a wall hole. • Do not put pipes on the ground directly without a cap or vinyl tape at the end of the pipe. • If piping installation is not completed until next day or over a longer period of time, braze off the ends of the piping and charge with oxygen free nitrogen through a Schrader valve type access fitting to prevent moisture and particle contamination.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.1.2 Three principles on refrigerant piping work In case of using refrigerant R410A in the refrigeration cycle, the refrigeration oil should be of a synthetic type one. In order to avoid oxidation, pay much careful attention to basic piping work control to avoid infiltration of moisture or dust during the refrigerant piping work.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.1.4 Brazing work The most important work in the refrigerant piping installation work is the brazing of the pipes. If it accidentally occurs a leakage due to a careless brazing process, it will cause clogged capillary pipes or serious compressor failure.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.2 Piping connection for outdoor unit 3.2.1 RAS-(2-2.5)HVNP / RAS-3HVNC 1 Take the piping cover away from the unit. Then fetch the pipes through the rear side and route piping according to the installation place as shown in the figure. Make holes by cutting along the guideline at the rear of the cover or punching with a driver. Remove the burr with a cutter, and place a insulation (field supplied) to protect cables and pipes.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.2.2 RAS-3HVNPE / RAS-(4-6)H(V)N(P/C)E / RAS-(8-10)HN(P/C)E / RAS-12HN(P/C) 1 The pipes can be connected from 4 directions. Make holes in the piping cover or cabinet for taking out pipes.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge For the front and side piping Select the correct knock-out size depending on whether it is for power wiring or transition wiring RAS-3HVNPE / RAS-(4-6)H(V)N(P/C)E / RAS-(8-10)HN(P/C)E RAS-12HN(P/C) Right-SIde Piping Hole Right side piping hole Front piping hole Front-SIde Piping Hole Front piping hole Rigth side piping hole B A A To use racking or conduit tubes, check the size and remove B part following the slit.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge For the rear side piping After removing the rear-side piping cover, punch out the “A” holes along the guide line. Rear Cover 3 NOTE Remove the rear pipe cover under the rear cover and remove part following the slit. 2 Mount the piping cover in order to avoid water entering into the unit. Seal the holes where pipes and wires are inserted, by using insulation (field-supplied).
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.2.3 Outdoor unit stop valve 1 Remove the stop valve cap before performing the air tight test after connecting the flare nut. Tighten the spindle valve in clockwise according to the following table “Tightening Torque of Stop Valves.” 2 Tighten the flare nut according the specified torque. If the tightening torque is excessive, it may cause refrigerant leakage from the spindle part. 3 Perform the air tight test after the tightening work.

If applied, leakage will occur. 4-6 HP Premium, 8-12HP Stop valve (Spindle type) Flare nut Use two spanners here for pipe connection Don not apply two spanners work here Do not work with two spanners here.
3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.3 Refrigerant piping range 3.3.1 Refrigerant piping length The refrigerant piping between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit should be designed using the following chart. Keep the design point within the area of the chart, which is showing the applicable height difference according to piping length. 3.3.2 Piping system for header branch 1 indoor unit system (O.U. from 2 to 10 HP) 2 indoor units system (O.U. from 2 to 12 HP) 3 indoor units system (O.U.

3. Piping work and refrigerant charge 3.3.5 Refrigerant piping size and multikit/distributor selection CAUTION • Do not use refrigerant pipe sizes other than those indicated in this Technical Catalogue. The diameter of the refrigerant pipes depends directly on the outdoor unit capacity. • If larger diameter gas refrigerant pipes are used, the circuit lubrication oil tends to separate from the gas carrying it. The compressor will be seriously damaged due to a lack of lubrication.
