REFRIGERANT PIPING
Tightening connection
Align the centers of the connecting pipes and tighten
the flare nut as far as possible with your fingers. Then
tighten the nut with a spanner and torque wrench as
shown in the figure.
CAUTION
• Do not apply excess torque. Otherwise, the nut
may crack depending on the conditions.

• Tightening torque of flare pipe connections
Pressure of R410A becomes higher than that of R22.
(Approx. 1.6 times) Therefore, using a torque wrench,
tighten firmly the flare pipe connecting sections which
connect the indoor and outdoor units up to the
specified tightening torque.
Incorrect connections may cause not only a gas
leakage, but also a trouble of the refrigeration cycle or
compressor damage.
