1) Protection (covering)
Protection (covering) during storage and work involving refrigerant piping is the most important type of work
in order to prevent water/moisture, contaminants or dust from entering into the piping.
If water/moisture, contaminants or dust enter into refrigerant piping, not only will it
prevent AC from operating normally but it will cause malfunction and inconvenience
for customer. Your utmost effort is required in preventing this from occurring.
(2)Do not lay refrigerant pipes directly onto floor surface, but use table or the like when placing them.
During work
(1)Be sure to protect (cover) the ends even when leaving the pipes for a short period of time.
(2)Be sure to protect (cover) the ends when pushing a pipe through a through-hole.

Excessive feeding of the blade can disfigure the pipe so special care is required.

Make sure that burrs are completely removed, as not removing burrs sufficiently can
result in a refrigerant gas leak at the flare.

(1) Remove the burrs on the cut surface with a reamer or scraper.
Note that excessive deburring can thin the walls of the pipe
and cause vertical (lengthwise) cracking when expanding.

close the lever and expand the pipe.

If the nozzle is too large, it makes preheating and heating difficult. If too
small, brazing takes too long. Use a nozzle that suits the outer diameter
of the pipe to be brazed.

It is even more effective to open up a small hole in the tape to release the nitrogen
after covering the end of the pipe with tape or the like.
Use of the tapered nozzle results in efficient replacement.
If nitrogen pressure is too high, it may cause brazing filler metal not to reach completely
around pipe or pinholes to develop in it. Make sure that pressure is not excessively high.
Use of nitrogen with a purity of at least 99.99% is recommended. Be sure to note that use
of a lesser purity nitrogen may likely result in oxide film formation.

It is relatively easy to apply the brazing filler metal when the pipe is facing down or
sideways. But, if the pipe is facing up, it is relatively difficult to spread it and can
result in a refrigerant leak. Therefore, make efforts to enable brazing with the pipe
facing down or sideways.
Cool the brazed location with a moist cloth or the like to enable work afterward
and prevent burns.
Do not turn off the nitrogen until the pipe is completely cooled down.
If the nitrogen gas is stopped before the pipe has sufficiently been cooled down,
it will result in the development of an oxide film on the inner surface of the pipe.

(1) Apply refrigerant oil (ethereal oil, ester oil) to the inner surface of the flare.
(2) Turn the flare nut 3 or 4 times to the machine union side by hand.
Be sure to use the flare nuts that come with the unit.
If flare nut cannot be turned by hand, there may be a shaft misalignment of flare and union.
Please try again.
Tighten, using a technique that employs both torque wrench and spanner.
Be careful, as tightening excessively can cause gas leakage due to flare nut cracking.
When tightening flare nut with monkey wrench, there comes point where the tightening
torque increases rapidly.
From that point, tighten only with angle shown in table below.
Note that tightening the flare nut with a spanner longer than the recommended
tool length shown in the table below can result in excessive tightening.

Ensure a downward gradient of the drain piping of at least 1/100.
Keep the drain piping as short as possible and prevent air pockets.

Do not connect drain pipes to the building‘s sanitary sewer pipes or waste
pipes as it may cause an odor problem.
★The installation procedures for drain piping at the indoor unit side differ by the
model, so always check the installation manual before installing.
★Indoor units in which the drain piping connection becomes a negative pressure require
drain trap for each unit. In addition, the drain trap requires a cleanout for cleaning.

Be sure to use the drain hose that comes with the unit.
The flexible type prevents any undue stress on the drain pan.
Do not bend the drain hose in the middle so as to prevent any excessive force on it.
Bending can lead to a water leak.
(2) Tighten the indoor unit's drain connection and drain hose with the attached hose band.
Do not attach indoor unit's drain connection and drain hose with adhesive.
It complicates removal of drain hose from the machine during maintenance and the like.

If the main drain pipe has already been installed and the required gradient

Insulation work does not allow for checks/tests, so ensure that any maintenance
and repair on the insulation joints and the like is done properly.
[Materials]
For the insulation, use materials that can sufficiently withstand the temperature of the piping.

(2) Securely fasten both ends of the joint insulation material with the clamp material (accessory (4)).
(3) Wind sealer over the joint insulation material only for flares on the gas piping side.
Be sure to always conduct the above work after the air tightness test.
Insulation material shrinks with time, so it is recommended that insulation material cuts
be reinforced with tape with insulation material after applying a special adhesive.

Try to minimize the number of cuts in the insulation material (one cut is ideal).

If shielded wires are not properly grounded on one end, it can lead to communication
problems. Therefore, when using a shielded wire, be sure to ground one end.
Thin type
When wiring over an extended distance, transmission may become unstable due to the drop in
voltage.Moreover, it predisposes the wiring to noise effects.

Prevention of short-circuiting
Short-circuiting can occur if the outdoor unit is not installed in a location with good ventilation.
Inverter air conditioners may induce noise from other electronic equipment.
When selecting a location for installation, maintain sufficient distances from radios, PCs,
stereos and the like in consideration of the installation of air conditioner and power wiring.

It is rare to conduct an air tightness test on everything from O/U to I/U at the same time.
If a pressure drop has been detected, it takes a lot of time to check where the leak is.
An efficient method to check is on a block-by-block basis in accordance with work schedule.
After conducting the air tightness test, leaving the pressure between 0.2 and 0.3 MPaG in
the piping allows for the prevention of contamination in the piping.

Before conducting the vacuum drying work, be sure to check with a vacuum gauge that the
pressure reaches a level below 100.7 kPaG.
Use special tools for R410A (e.g., gauge manifold, charge hose).
Reasons: Refrigerant oils differ between R410A and R22. Using different tools will result in
refrigerant oils being mixed between the two, which will result in the development of impurities
and the clogging of the refrigerant circuit.

When the work has taken a long time and there is a risk of condensation within the piping
