- Connect the duct according to the air inside of the outlet-side
flange.
- Wrap the outlet-side flange and the duct connection area with
aluminum tape or something similar to prevent air escaping.
- Be sure to insulate the duct to prevent condensation
from forming. (Material: glass wool or polyethylene
foam, 25 mm thick)
- Use electric insulation between the duct and the wall
when using metal ducts to pass metal laths of the net or
fence shape or metal plating into wooden buildings.
- Be sure to explain about the way of maintaining and
cleaning local procurements (air filter, grille (both air
outlet and suction grille), etc.) to your customer.

Refrigerant piping work

For refrigerant piping of outdoor unit, refer to the installation manual
supplied with the outdoor unit.
Before rigging tubes, check which type of refrigerant is used.
Installation shall be done by a licensed refrigeration
technician, the choice of materials and installation shall
comply with the applicable national and international
codes. In Europe, EN378 is the applicable standard that
shall be used.
 Use a pipe cutter and flare suitable for the used refrigerant.
To prevent dust, moisture or other foreign matter from infiltrating

the tube, either pinch the end, or cover it with tape.
Use copper alloy seamless pipes (ISO 1337).

The outdoor unit is charged with refrigerant.

 To prevent water leakage, execute heat insulation work
completely on both sides of the gas and liquid piping. When
using a heat pump, the temperature of the gas piping can reach
up to approximately 120°C, use insulation which is sufficiently
heat resistant.
Be sure to use both a spanner and torque wrench together when

connecting or disconnecting pipes to/from the unit.
1 Torque wrench
2 Spanner
3 Piping union
4 Flare nut
 Do not mix anything other than the specified refrigerant, such as
air, etc..., inside the refrigerant circuit.
Use annealed material only for flare connections.

Refer to Table 1 for the dimensions of flare nut spaces and the

appropriate tightening torque. (Overtightening may damage the
flare and cause leaks.)

When connecting the flare nut, coat the flare inner surface with

ether oil or ester oil and initially tighten 3 or 4 turns by hand
before tightening firmly.
If the refrigerant gas leaks during the work, ventilate the area. A

toxic gas is emitted by the refrigerant gas being exposed to a fire.
 Make sure there is no refrigerant gas leak. A toxic gas may be
released by the refrigerant gas leaking indoor and being
exposed to flames from an area heater, cooking stove, etc.
Finally, insulate as shown in the figures below.

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.

Cautions for brazing

Be sure to carry out a nitrogen blow when brazing.

Brazing without carrying out nitrogen replacement or releasing
nitrogen into the piping will create large quantities of oxidized
film on the inside of the pipes, adversely affecting valves and
compressors in the refrigerating system and preventing normal
operation.
When brazing while inserting nitrogen into the piping, nitrogen

must be set to 0.02 MPa with a pressure-reducing valve (=just
enough so that it can be felt on the skin).
