2.1 Refrigerant R410A

Do not use unqualified refrigerant. Huawei will not be liable for any equipment damage caused by
unqualified refrigerant.
Refrigerant from name brands such as DuPont, Daikin, and Honeywell are recommended. You can verify
the refrigerant authenticity in the following ways:
1. Dial the refrigerant manufacturer's hotline to confirm the refrigerant manufacturer authenticity.
2. Place the refrigerant tank indoors for 24 hours. Use a point thermometer to measure the outer surface
temperature of the refrigerant tank (figure 1), and connect a pressure gauge to the tank to measure the
internal pressure (figure 2). Find the saturation pressure corresponding to the measured outer surface
temperature from the table on the next page. If the deviation between the saturation pressure and the
measured internal pressure is greater than 0.2 MPa, the refrigerant does not meet the requirements,
and needs to be replaced.

The figure shows how a Northbound RS485 network cable is prepared.

Northbound RS485 Monitoring

When the host monitors smart cooling products using the RS485 protocol, the time needed for
collecting all data from a single smart cooling product is 3 seconds. In the teamwork mode of
cascading using an RS485 bus for monitoring, it takes the host 3 seconds multiplied by N to collect
data from N smart cooling products in the group. If the host needs more time to collect data from all
smart cooling products than what the host performance requires, the smart cooling products can be
grouped for data collection. Assume that the host needs to collect the data from all smart cooling
products within 12 seconds you are advised to incorporate four smart cooling products in one group
and connect the COM port of the first smart cooling product for each group to an RS485 port on the
host. The following figure shows how 32 teamworked smart cooling products, four in each group, to
connect to the hosts.
23
 NOTE

Users can adjust the number of smart cooling products under one group based on the performance
requirements.

1. If 32 smart cooling products are teamworked, every four smart cooling products are included in
one group, which then connects to an independent RS485 port on the host.
2. Set toggle switch 1 for smart cooling products 1 and 32 to ON. Set toggle switches 2 and 3 for
the last smart cooling product of each group (namely, smart cooling product 4, smart cooling
product 8, …, smart cooling product 28) both to OFF, except the smart cooling product in the
end, that is, smart cooling product 32. Retain the default settings of other toggle switches.

11 Leak Checking, Vacuumizing, and Precharging Refrigerant

Ensure that no combustion-supporting materials (air or additives) enter the smart cooling product
system during commissioning. Huawei shall not be liable for any risks and losses thus incurred.

11.1 Leak Checking

Charge 3.0 MPa nitrogen and preserve the system for 24 hours. If the ambient temperatures
before and after the preservation are similar, the system pressure should not drop. If leaks occur
after the preservation, check them along the pipe, especially at the welding positions, needle valve,
and angle valve.

26
11.2 Vacuumizing
The vacuumizing time should be 80 minutes at least and the final pressure (absolute pressure)
should be 60 Pa at most. After the vacuumization, close all the vacuum pump and valves.
Preserve the system for another 10 minutes and the pressure (absolute pressure) should be 90 Pa
at most. If the pressure gauge cannot be precise at 60 Pa, ensure that the pressure is displayed at
the minimum scale. Extend the preservation time to one hour. Then check whether the pressure
displayed on the pressure gauge increases.

11.3 Precharging Refrigerant

1. Close the high-pressure valve and low-pressure valve of the pressure gauge.
2. Take off the vacuum pump from the vacuumizing equipment, and replace the vacuum pump
with a refrigerant steel vessel.
3. Partially open the refrigerant steel vessel valve and rubber tube nut. Tighten the nut when you
feel cold air coming out from the nut.
4. Put the refrigerant steel vessel upside down on an electric balance. Clear the reading on the
balance.
5. Open pressure gauge valves, and the refrigerant steel vessel valve to charge refrigerant.
6. Refrigerant to be partially charged should be no less than half of total calculated amount, and
no more than the total calculated amount. (When charging refrigerant for a cooling system
without a Low-Temperature component, charge less than 1 kg of refrigerant from the low
pressure side, and charge the rest from the discharge pipe needle valve.)
7. After refrigerant charging, close pressure gauge valves, and the refrigerant steel vessel valve.
