Residue can clog pipes and break equipment.
(Improper installation could lead to malfunctioning or breakdown
of the outdoor unit.)
6-4 Connecting the refrigerant piping
<REFNET joint>
1. Direction to bring out the pipes Install the REFNET joint so it splits horizontally or vertically.
The local interunit piping can be connected either forward or to
the sides (taken out through the bottom) as shown in the figure 10. (Refer to figure 14)
When passing out through the bottom, use the knock hole in the 1. Horizontal

Precautions when knocking out knock holes
• Open knock hole in the base frame by drilling the 4 concave (Refer to figure 15)
around it with a 6mm bit. (Refer to figure 11) 1. Horizontal surface
2. B-arrow view
(Refer to figure 11)

2. Drill
3. Concave section (4 points)
• Be sure to avoid damaging the casing
• After knocking out the holes, we recommend you remove any
burrs and paint them using the repair paint to prevent rusting.
• When passing electrical wiring through the knock holes, protect the wir-
ing with a conduit or bushings, making sure not to damage the wiring.
2. Removing Pinch Piping
• When connecting refrigerant piping to an outdoor unit, remove
the pinch piping using the procedure in the figure 12.
(Refer to figure 12)
• About handling of shutoff valves, refer to [Shutoff valve opera-
tion procedure] in “11-1 Before working”.
Caution
After removing the gass, remove the pinch piping.
Any gas remaining inside may blow off the pinch piping when you dis-
solve the brazing, causing damage.

(Refer to figure 12)


1. Pich piping (4 pieces)
2. Do not remove the relay piping.
3. Pinch piping
4. Procedure 1 : Confirm the shutoff valve is closed.
5. Procedure 2 : Connect a charge hose to the service port
of shutoff valve and remove the gas in the pinch piping.
6. Procedure 3 : After removing the gas in the pinch piping,
dissolve the brazing using a burner and remove the
pinch piping.
3. Connecting refrigerant piping to outdoor units
• Figure 13 shows the example of connecting refrigerant piping to
outdoor units.
• The local interunit piping next accesorry pipes are field supplyed.
(Refer to figure 13)
1. When connected to the front
2. When connected at lateral side (bottom)
3. Remove the shutoff valve cover to connect.
4. Remove the knock hole on the bottom frame and route
the piping under the bottom frame.

• R410A is a mixed refrigerant, so charging it as a gas will cause
the refrigerant composition to change, which may prevent normal
operation.
[Shutoff valve operation procedure]
When operating the shutoff valve, follow the procedure instructed below.
Note
• Do not open the shutoff valve until “10. CHECKING OF DEVICE
AND INSTALLATION CONDITIONS” are completed. If the shutoff
valve is left open without turning on the power, it may cause refrig-
erant to buildup in the compressor, leading insulation degradation.
• Be sure to use the correct tools.
The shutoff valve is not a back-seat type. If forced it to open, it
might break the valve body.
• When using a service port, use the charge hose.
• After tightening the cap, make sure no refrigerant gas is leaking.

Procedure for checking maximum concentration NOTES


Check the maximum concentration level in accordance with steps 1
to 4 below and take whatever action is necessary to comply.
1. Calculate the amount of refrigerant (kg) charged to each system

Note
• Where a single refrigerant facility is divided into 2 entirely inde-
pendent refrigerant systems then use the amount of refrigerant
with which each separate system is charged.
2. Calculate the smallest room volume (m3 )
Incase like the following, calculate the volume of (A), (B) as a sin-
gle room or as the smallest room.
A.Where there are no smaller room divisions

B.Where there is a room division but there is an opening


between the rooms sufficiently large to permit a free flow of
air back and forth.

If the result of the above calculation exceeds the maximum con-

third smallest room and so until the result falls short of the maxi-
mum concentration.
4. Dealing with the situations where the result exceeds the maxi-
mum concentration level.
Where the installation of a facility results in a concentration in
excess of the maximum concentration level then it will be neces-
sary to revise the system. Please consult your Daikin supplier.
