Evacuating
After the piping has been connected to the indoor unit, you can perform the
air purge together at once.
AIR PURGE Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and in the indoor unit
using a vacuum pump. Do not use the refrigerant in the outdoor unit. For
details, see the manual of the vacuum pump.
Using a vacuum pump
Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow prevention function so that
inside oil of the pump does not flow backward into pipes of the air
conditioner when the pump stops. (If oil inside of the vacuum pump enters the
air conditioner, which use R32 or R410A, refrigeration cycle trouble may
result.) 1. Connect the charge hose from the manifold valve to the service
port of
the packed valve at gas side. 2. Connect the charge hose to the port of the
vacuum pump. 3. Open fully the low pressure side handle of the gauge manifold
valve. 4. Operate the vacuum pump to start evacuating. Perform evacuating for
about 15 minutes if the piping length is 20 meters. (15 minutes for 20 meters)
(assuming a pump capacity of 27 liters per minute) Then confirm that the
compound pressure gauge reading is 101 kPa (76 cmHg). 5. Close the low
pressure side valve handle of the gauge manifold valve. 6. Open fully the
valve stem of the packed valves (both gas and liquid sides). 7. Remove the
charging hose from the service port. 8. Securely tighten the caps on the
packed valves.

· KEEP IMPORTANT 7 POINTS FOR PIPING WORK. (1) Take away dust and moisture
(inside of the connecting pipes). (2) Tighten the connections (between pipes
and unit). (3) Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes using a VACUUM PUMP.
(4) Check gas leak (connected points). (5) Be sure to fully open the packed
valves before operation. (6) Reusable mechanical connectors and flared joints
are not allowed indoors. When mechanical connectors are reused indoors,
sealing parts shall be renewed. When flared joints are reused indoors, the
flare part shall be refabricated. (7) Don’t operate air conditioner in case no

APPENDIX
Work instructions The existing R22 and R410A piping can be reused for inverter R32 product installations.
WARNING
Confirming the existence of scratches or dents on the existing pipes and
confirming the reliability of the pipe strength are conventionally referred to
the local site. If the specified conditions can be cleared, it is possible to
update existing R22 and R410A pipes to those for R32 models.
Basic conditions needed to reuse existing
pipes
Check and observe the presence of three conditions in
the refrigerant piping works.
1. Dry (There is no moisture inside of the pipes.) 2. Clean (There is no dust
inside of the pipes.) 3. Tight (There are no refrigerant leaks.)
Restrictions for use of existing pipes In the following cases, the existing
pipes should not be reused as they are. Clean the existing pipes or exchange
them with new pipes. 1. When a scratch or dent is heavy, be sure to use new
pipes for the refrigerant piping works. 2. When the existing pipe thickness is
thinner than the
specified “Pipe diameter and thickness,” be sure to use new pipes for the
refrigerant piping works.
y The operating pressure of R32 or R410A is high (1.6 times that of R22). If
there is a scratch or dent on the pipe or a thinner pipe is used, the pressure
strength may be inadequate, which may cause the pipe to break in the worst
case.
- Pipe diameter and thickness (mm)
Pipe outer diameter
Thickness
R32, R410A R22
Ø6.4 0.8
Ø9.5 0.8
Ø12.7 0.8
3. When the outdoor unit was left with the pipes disconnected, or the gas
leaked from the pipes and the pipes were not repaired and refilled. y There is
the possibility of rain water or air, including moisture, entering the pipe.
4. When refrigerant cannot be recovered using a refrigerant recovery unit. y
There is the possibility that a large quantity of dirty oil or moisture
remains inside the pipes.
5. When a commercially available dryer is attached to the existing pipes. y
There is the possibility that copper green rust has been generated.
6. When the existing air conditioner is removed after refrigerant has been
recovered. Check if the oil is judged to be clearly different from normal oil.
y The refrigerator oil is copper rust green in color: There is the possibility
that moisture has mixed with the oil and rust has been generated inside the
pipe. y There is discolored oil, a large quantity of residue, or a bad smell.
y A large quantity of shiny metal dust or other wear residue can be seen in
the refrigerant oil.
7. When the air conditioner has a history of the compressor failing and being
replaced. y When discolored oil, a large quantity of residue, shiny metal
dust, or other wear residue or mixture of foreign matter is observed, trouble
will occur.
8. When temporary installation and removal of the air conditioner are
repeated such as when leased etc.
9. If the type of refrigerator oil of the existing air conditioner is other
than the following oil (Mineral oil), Suniso, Freol-S, MS (Synthetic oil),
alkyl benzene (HAB, Barrel-freeze), ester series, PVE only of ether series. y
The winding-insulation of the compressor may deteriorate.
NOTE
The above descriptions are results have been confirmed by our company and
represent our views on our air conditioners, but do not guarantee the use of
the existing pipes of air conditioners that have adopted R32 or R410A in other
companies.
Curing of pipes
When removing and opening the indoor or outdoor unit for
a long time, cure the pipes as follows: y Otherwise rust may be generated when
moisture or
foreign matter due to condensation enters the pipes. y The rust cannot be
removed by cleaning, and new
pipes are necessary.

Are there scratches or dents on the existing pipes?
NO
Is it possible to operate the existing air conditioner?
YES y After the existing air conditioner is operated in cooling
mode for approx. 30 minutes or longer, recover the refrigerant. y For
cleaning the pipes and recovering oil Refrigerant recovery: Pump down method
YES NO
Existing pipes: Cannot be used. y Use new pipes.
Nitrogen gas pressure 0.5 MPa
y Remove the existing air conditioner from the piping and carry out flushing
(nitrogen pressure 0.5 MPa) to remove any remains inside of the pipe.
Note: In case of twin pipes, also be sure to flush the branching pipe.
Was largely discolored oil or a large quantity of remains discharged? (When
the oil deteriorates,
the color of the oil changes to a muddy or black color.)
NO
Connect the indoor / outdoor units to the existing pipe. y Use a flare nut
attached to the main unit for the
indoor / outdoor units. (Do not use the flare nut of the existing pipe.) y Re-
machine the flare machining size to size for R32 or R410A.
y (Airtight test), Vacuum dry, Refrigerant charge, Gas leak check
