14 - CONNECTING REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES
14-1 INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTIING REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES

Avoid excessive height difference between indoor and


outdoor units.

Avoid excessive length of refrigerant piping lines


between indoor and outdoor units

- All bends must be considered when connecting


indoor unit with outdoor unit by required length
of refrigerant piping lines.
- Do not remove the protective caps from the
couplings until the refrigerant piping lines are ready
for connection with both indoor and outdoor units.
This is to keep piping clean.
- The installer must carefully unroll the tubing and run
Not Recommended it between the indoor and outdoor units.
Recommended
● Do not bend the pipe more than three times at one
place.
● When extending the rolled pipe, straighten the pipe
by unwinding it.
When forming the pipe. Be careful not to crush it.

Avoid flattening or kinking of refrigerant piping

Copper When making a bend, the installer cuts insulation and


slides it away from the bend area. Using a tube bender
Insulation makes the bend and then the insulation is replaced
gluing it together.

18
CONNECTING REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES (Cont.)
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTIING REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES (Cont.)

Radius of Bending The minimum radius of bending must not be less than 100
mm to avoid damage of tubing.
Once the tubing is bent, the installer must not unbend at
the same point as this causes work hardening of copper
tubing and makes it more difficult to reshape
Excessive tubing
must be coiled When there is excessive tubing, it must be coiled
horizontally horizontally so that the flow of refrigerant is from the top to
bottom of the coil and towards the outdoor unit.
The excessive tubing must not be coiled vertically since
the vertical coil affects the oil return to the compressor.

For bends having a radius smaller than 300 mm, the use of
a tuber bender with a minimum wheel diameter of 120 mm
is a must.
The tube bender wheel grooves should have the same
diameters as the refrigerant pipes.

Avoid excessive number of bends in refrigerant piping lines


during connections with both the indoor and outdoor units.
This is to avoid reduction of cooling efficiency.

Bends with tube diameter bigger than ½” or a bending


radius than 300 mm should be made with a dime. Having
this radius.

Avoid disconnecting refrigerant connections after they


have been tightened to avoid refrigerant leaks.

CONNECTING REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES (Cont.)
15.2 USE OF REFRIGERANT PIPING LINES
The following data refers to the use of refrigerant piping lines of diameters equivalent to that use in
units where : L = Maximum length of refrigerant piping lines between outdoor and indoor unit.
M = Maximum vertical distance between outdoor and indoor units.
(A) OUTDOOR UNIT BELOW INDOOR UNIT :
a. Suction line should rise above height of Indoor unit to shape a liquid trap in an inverted
loop before descending to outdoor unit to prevent liquid refrigerant from draining into
compressor during shutdown.
b. Slop tubing towards the outdoor unit with a fall of at least (6mm) to (305mm).

17-1 The ductwork dimensions should be determined in accordance wit the available with the air circulating
through it and with the available static pressure of the unit.

Various suggestions are made here below, regarding the layout and design of the said ductwork:
a) Whatever type of duct is used, it should not be made of materials which are flammable, or which
give off toxic gases in the event of a fire. The internal surfaces should be smooth, and not
contaminate the air, which passes through.

b) At the points where the duct joins with the unit, it is advisable to use a flexible connection, which
absorbs vibration and prevents the transmission of noise inside the ductwork.

c) Bends should be avoidable, they should be as slight as possible, and internal deflectors should
be used when the duct is of large dimensions.
