1 Liquid pipe
2 Gas pipe
3 Insulation for liquid pipe fitting
4 Insulation for gas pipe fitting
5 Clamps
 (use 2 clamps per insulation)
6 Indoor unit
For local insulation, be sure to insulate local piping 
all the way into the pipe connections inside the unit.
Exposed piping may cause condensation or may 
cause burns when touched. 
Make sure that no oil remains on plastic parts of the 
decoration panel (optional equipment).
Oil may cause degradation and damage to plastic 
parts.
3) Finally, insulate as shown in the figure below.

3.5 Additional refrigerant charge
CAUTION
Refrigerant may only be charged after performing the leak
test and the vacuum pumping.
Check the type of refrigerant to be used on the machine 
nameplate. Charging with an unsuitable refrigerant may
cause explosions and accidents, so always ensure that the
appropriate refrigerant is charged.
Refrigerant containers shall be opened slowly.
 The outdoor unit is factory charged with refrigerant. Calculate the 
 added refrigerant according to the diameter and the length of the 
 liquid pipe of the outdoor unit/indoor unit connection. 
3.6 Refrigerant pipig work
1) Caution on the pipe handling
 Protect the open end of the pipe against dust and moisture.
 All pipe bends should be as gentle as possible. Use a pipe
 bender for bending.
2) Be sure to insulate both the gas and liquid piping. Use 
 separate thermal insulation pipes for gas and liquid 
 refrigerant pipes. See the figure below.
Be sure to add the proper amount of additional refrigerant.
Failure to do so may result in reduced performance.
Pipe length Up to 49.2ft / 15m More than 49.2ft / 15m
Not less than 15minNot less than 10 minRun time
*2. If the compound pressure gauge pointer swings back,
 refrigerant may have water content or a loose pipe  joint may 
 exists. Check all pipe joints and retighten nuts as needed, 
 then repeat steps  2) through 4).
Be sure to 
place a cap.
If no flare cap is 
available, cover the 
flare mouth with 
tape to keep dirt or 
water out.
