*1 Use a joint pipe if the connection of the indoor unit differs.
• Use tightening torque table above as a guideline for indoor unit side union
joint section, and tighten using two wrenches. Excessive tightening dam-
ages the flare section.
1) Do not apply refrigeration oil on screw threads. Excessive tightening torque
will result in damage on the screw.
2) For connection, first align the center, then tighten the first 3 to 4 turns of
flare nut by hand.
3) Tighten the flare nut with a torque wrench as specified in the table.
• Over-tightening may cause damage to the flare nut, resulting in refrigerant
leakage.
• Be sure to wrap insulation around the piping. Direct contact with the bare
piping may result in burns or frostbite.
4) If the length of the connection pipe is 10 m or less when connecting to a
floor-standing ATA indoor unit, it is recommended to install the optional
muffler (sold separately).
For the installation method, refer to the construction manual for the muffler.
