The pipe will be collapsed. In this case, cut

the heat insulating pipe with a sharp cutter as

shown in Fig. 1, and bend it after exposing

the pipe. After bending the pipe as you want,

be sure to put the heat insulating pipe back on the pipe, and secure it with tape.

Fig. 1

CAUTION!
. To prevent breaking of the pipe, avoid sharp bends. Bend the pipe with a radius of curvature of 150 mm or over.
. If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it will break.

..3 Connecting the Pipe at the Indoor Unit Side
Detach the caps and plugs from the pipes.
CAUTION! . Be sure to apply the pipe against the port on the indoor unit correctly. If the centering is
improper, the flare nut cannot be tightened smoothly. If the flare nut is forced to turn, the threads will be damaged. . Do not remove the flare nut until the connection pipe is to be connected so as to prevent dust and impurities from coming into the pipe system.
When connecting the pipe to the unit or removing it from the unit, please do use both the spanner and the torque wrench. (Fig. 1)
When connecting, smear both inside and outside of the flare nut with refrigeration oil, screw it hand tight and then tighten it with the spanner.
Refer to Table to check if the wrench has been tightened properly (too tight would mangle the nut and lead to leakage).
Examine the connection pipe to see if it leaks, then take the treatment of heat insulation, as shown in the Fig. 1.
Use the medium-sized sponge to insulate the coupler of the gas pipe.

.2.7 Liquid Pipe and Drain Pipe
(1). If the outdoor unit is installed lower than the indoor unit. (See Fig. 15)
1). A drain pipe should be above ground and the end of the pipe does not dip into water. All pipes must be restrained to the wall by saddles.
2). Taping pipes must be done from bottom to top.
3). All pipes are bound together by tape and restrained to wall by saddles.
(2). If the outdoor unit is installed higher than the indoor unit.
1). Taping should be done from lower to the upper part.
2). All pipes are bound and taped together and also should be trapped to prevent water from returning to the room (See Fig. 16)
3). Restraint all pipes to the wall with saddles.

.3 Vacuum and Gas Leakage Inspection
CAUTION! Do not purge the air with refrigerants but use a vacuum pump to vacuum the installation! There is no extra refrigerant in the outdoor unit for air purging!

)OH[0DWFK Unit
.3.1 Vacuum
(1). Remove the caps of the liquid valve, gas valve and also the service port. (2). Connect the hose at the low pressure side of the manifold valve assembly
to the service port of the unit’s gas valve, and meanwhile the gas and liquid valves should be kept closed in case of refrigerant leak. (3). Connect the hose used for evacuation to the vacuum pump. (4). Open the switch at the lower pressure side of the manifold valve assembly and start the vacuum pump. Meanwhile, the switch at the high pressure side of the manifold valve assembly should be kept closed, otherwise evacuation would fail. (5). The evacuation duration depends on the unit’s capacity, generally, 20 minutes for the 9k/12k/18k units, 30 minutes for the 24k units. And verify if the pressure gauge at the low pressure side of the manifold valve assembly reads -1.0Mp (-75cmHg), if not, it indicates there is leak somewhere. Then, close the switch fully and then stop the vacuum pump. (6). Wait for some time to see if the system pressure can remain unchanged, 5 minutes for the N12k/18k/24k units. During this time, the reading of the pressure gauge at the low pressure side can not be larger than 0.005Mp (0.38cmHg). (7). Slightly open the liquid valve and let some refrigerant go to the connection pipe to balance the pressure inside and outside of the connection pipe, so that air will not come into the connection pipe when removing the hose. Note that the gas and liquid valve can be opened fully only after the manifold valve assembly is removed. (8). Place back the caps of the liquid valve, gas valve and also the service port.

)OH[0DWFK Unit
Fig. 17 Note: For the large-sized unit, it has the service port for both the gas valve and the liquid valve. During evacuation, it is available to connect two hoses of the manifold valve assembly to two service ports to quicken the evacuating speed.
.4 Installation of the Drain Pipe
.4.1 Precautions When Doing the Piping Work
CAUTION! Install the drain hose in accordance with the instructions in this installation manual and keep the area warm enough to prevent condensation. Problems with the piping may lead to water leaks.

)OH[0DWFK Unit (1). Keep piping as short as possible and slope it downwards at a gradient of at
least 1/100 so that air may not remain trapped inside the pipe. (2). Keep pipe size equal to or greater than that of the connecting pipe. (3). Install the drain piping as shown and take measures against condensation.
Improperly rigged piping could lead to leaks and eventually wet furniture and belongings.
