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.

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

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.

Placement location
Outdoors
Indoors

Term
1 month or more Less than 1 month

Curing manner Pinching
Pinching or taping

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

(If there is discharge of remains, it is judged that a large quantity of remains are present.)

YES

Clean the pipes or use new pipes.
