Safety Precautions
WARNING
•
All field piping must be completed by a
licensed technician and must comply with
the local and national regulations.
• When the air conditioner is installed in a
small room, measures must be taken to
prevent the refrigerant concentration in
the room from exceeding the safety limit
in the event of refrigerant leakage. If the
refrigerant leaks and its concentration
exceeds its proper limit, hazards due to
lack of oxygen may result.
• When installing the refrigeration system,
ensure that air, dust, moisture or foreign
substances do not enter the refrigerant
circuit. Contamination in the system may
cause poor operating capacity, high
pressure in the refrigeration cycle,
explosion or injury.
•
Ventilate the area immediately if there is
refrigerant leakage during the installation.
Leaked refrigerant gas is both toxic and
flammable. Ensure there is no refrigerant
leakage after completing the installation
work.
Refrigerant Piping Connection Instructions
Step1: Cut pipes
When preparing refrigerant pipes, take extra
care to cut and flare them properly. This will
ensure efficient operation and minimize the
need for future maintenance.
For R32/R290
refrigerantmodels, the pipe connection
points must be placed outside of room.
The connection pipes can not be reused.
1. Measure the distance between the indoor
and outdoor units.
2. Using a pipe cutter, cut the pipe a little
longer than the measured distance.
CAUTION
DO NOT deform pipe while cutting. Be extra
careful not to damage, dent, or deform the
pipe while cutting. This will drastically reduce
the heating efficiency of the unit.
1. Make sure that the pipe is cut at a perfect
90° angle. Refer to Fig. 7.1 for examples of
bad cuts

Step 2: Remove burrs.
Burrs can affect the air-tight seal of refrigerant
piping connection. They must be completely
removed.
1. Hold the pipe at a downward angle to
prevent burrs from falling into the pipe.
2. Using a reamer or deburring tool, remove
all burrs from the cut section of the pipe.
CAUTION
• The branching pipe must be installed
horizontally. An angle of more than 10° may
cause malfunction.
• DO NOT install the connecting pipe until
both indoor and outdoor units have been
installed.
• Insulate both the gas and liquid piping to
prevent water leakage.
