SAFETY PRECAUTION 3-1. ALWAYS OBSERVE FOR SAFETY Before obtaining access to terminal, all supply circuits must be disconnected. 3-2. CAUTIONS RELATED TO NEW REFRIGERANT Cautions for units utilizing refrigerant R407C Do not use the existing refrigerant piping. Use liquid refrigerant to seal the system. The old refrigerant and lubricant in the existing piping contains a large amount of chlorine which may cause the lubricant deterioration of the new unit.
[1] Cautions for service ·After recovering the all refrigerant in the unit, proceed to working. ·Do not release refrigerant in the air. ·After completing the repair service, recharge the cycle with the specified amount of liquid refrigerant. [2] Refrigerant recharging (1) Refrigerant recharging process 1Direct charging from the cylinder. ·R407C cylinder are available on the market has a syphon pipe. ·Leave the syphon pipe cylinder standing and recharge it.
CAUTIONS RELATED TO NEW REFRIGERANT Cautions for units utilizing refrigerant R410A Use new refrigerant pipes. Do not use refrigerant other than R410A. In case of using the existing pipes for R22, be careful with the followings. · Change flare nut to the one provided with this product. Use a newly flared pipe. · Avoid using thin pipes. If other refrigerant (R22 etc.) is used, chlorine in refrigerant can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Unit Gravimeter [3] Service tools Use the below service tools as exclusive tools for R410A refrigerant. No. Tool name Specifications ·Only for R410A 1 Gauge manifold ·Use the existing fitting specifications. (UNF1/2) ·Use high-tension side pressure of 5.3MPa·G or over. ·Only for R410A 2 Charge hose 3 Electronic scale 4 Gas leak detector ·Use the detector for R134a, R407C or R410A. 5 Adaptor for reverse flow check ·Attach on vacuum pump.
