8.3 BRAZING WORK
!
C A U T I O N
• Use nitrogen gas for blowing during pipe brazing. If oxygen,
acetylene or fluorocarbon gas is used, it will cause an
explosion or poisonous gas.
• A lot of oxidation film will occur inside of tubes if no nitrogen
gas blowing is performed during brazing work. This film will
be flecked off after operation and will circulate in the cycle,
resulting in clogged expansion valves, etc. This will cause
bad influence to the compressor.

C A U T I O N
• At the test run, fully open the spindle and ball stop valve.
• If not fully opened, the devices will be damaged.
• Do not attempt to turn service valve rod beyond its stop.
• Do not loosen the stop ring. If the stop ring is loosened, it is dangerous
since the spindle will hop out.
• An excess or a shortage of refrigerant is the main cause of trouble
to the units. Charge the correct refrigerant quantity according to the
description of label at the inside of service cover.
• Check for refrigerant leakage in detail. If a large refrigerant leakage
occurs, it will cause difficulty with breathing or harmful gases would
occur if a fire was being used in the room.
• Use a reducer valve when nitrogen gas blowing is performed
during brazing. The gas pressure should be maintained
within 0.03 to 0.05MPa. If a excessively high pressure is
applied to a pipe, it will cause an explosion.
