General Data Single Zone High Efficiency, Standard, Extended Pipe and Mega Wall Mount Installation Manual R410A Refrigerant R410A Refrigerant R410A refrigerant has a higher operating pressure in comparison to R22 refrigerant and, therefore, all piping system materials installed must have a higher resisting pressure than the materials traditionally used in R22 systems. R410A refrigerant is an azeotrope of R32 and R125, mixed at 50:50, so the ozone depletion potential (ODP) is 0.

Refrigerant Piping Connections Single Zone High Efficiency, Standard, Extended Pipe and Mega Wall Mount Installation Manual Air Purging Air Purging Best Practices Air purging is done to the piping system after all piping has been connected between the indoor and outdoor unit. This step is necessary to be sure that air refrigerant can flow through the system without danger of leakage or pressure issues.
Refrigerant Piping Connections Leak Test/Soap Method Check Leak Test Perform the leak test by pressurizing nitrogen gas to 400 psi on both the liquid and gas pipes. Test with the piping service valves closed. If the pressure does not drop for twenty-four (24) hours, the system passes the test. If the pressure drops, there is a nitrogen leak in the system. Find the leak, repair, and then test again. Figure 75: Leak Test Diagram.

TROUBLESHOOTING Single Zone High Efficiency, Standard, Extended Pipe and Mega Wall Mount Installation Manual Error Codes Single Zone Wall Mounted Outdoor Unit Error Codes The Single Zone Wall Mounted outdoor unit error codes are visible on the outdoor unit, as well as, from the indoor unit. However, the indoor unit error codes are only visible from the indoor unit and will not display at the outdoor unit.
Cautions for Refrigerant Leaks Refrigerant Leaks Cautions for Refrigerant Leaks / Introduction ASHRAE Standards 15-2010 and 34-2010 offer guidelines that address refrigerant safety and the maximum allowable concentration of refrigerant in an occupied space. Refrigerant will dissipate into the atmosphere, but a certain volume of air is required for this to occur safely. For R410A refrigerant, the maximum allowable concentration is 0.026 lbs./ft3 per 1,000 ft3 of air in an occupied space.
