4.2. Pipe requirement
Refer to the Installation Manual of the outdoor unit for description of the length of
connecting pipe or for difference of its elevation.
• Use pipe with water-resistant heat insulation.
Install heat insulation around both the gas and liquid pipes. Failure to do so may cause
water leaks.
Use heat insulation with heat resistance above 120 °C. (Reverse cycle model only)
In addition, if the humidity level at the installation location of the refrigerant piping is
expected to exceed 70 %, install heat insulation around the refrigerant piping. If the
expected humidity level is 70 to 80 %, use heat insulation that is 15 mm or thicker and
if the expected humidity exceeds 80 %, use heat insulation that is 20 mm or thicker.
If heat insulation is used that is not as thick as specifi ed, condensation may form on
the surface of the insulation. In addition, use heat insulation with heat conductivity of
0.045 W/(m·K) or less (at 20 °C).
4.3. Flare connection (Pipe connection)
Tighten the flare nuts with a torque wrench using the specified tightening method.
Otherwise, the fl are nuts could break after a prolonged period, causing refrigerant to
leak and generate a hazardous gas if the refrigerant comes into contact with a fl ame.
4.3.1. Flaring
Use special fl are tool exclusive for R410A.
(1) Cut the connection pipe to the necessary length with a pipe cutter.
(2) Hold the pipe downward so that cuttings will not enter the pipe and remove any
burrs.
(3) Insert the fl are nut (always use the fl are nut attached to the indoor and outdoor
units (or RB unit) respectively) onto the pipe and perform the fl are processing with
a fl are tool. Use the special R410A fl are tool. Leakage of refrigerant may result if
other fl are nuts are used.
(4) Protect the pipes by pinching them or with tape to prevent dust, dirt, or water from
entering the pipes.

When using conventional (R22) fl are tools to fl are R410A pipes, the dimension A should
be approximately 0.5 mm more than indicated in the table (for fl aring with R410A fl are
tools) to achieve the specifi ed fl aring. Use a thickness gauge to measure the dimension A.
It is recommended that a R410A fl aring tool is used.

4.3.2. Bending pipes
• If pipes are shaped by hand, be careful not to collapse them.
• Do not bend the pipes in an angle more than 90°.
• When pipes are repeatedly bend or stretched, the material will harden, making it
diffi cult to bend or stretch them any more.
• Do not bend or stretch the pipes more than 3 times.
To prevent breaking of the pipe, avoid sharp bends.
If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it will break.
4.3.3. Pipe connection
Be sure to install the pipe against the port on the indoor unit correctly. If the centering
is improper, the fl are nut cannot tighten smoothly. If the fl are nut is forced to turn, the
threads will be damaged.
Do not remove the flare nut from the indoor unit pipe until immediately before
connecting the connection pipe.
Hold the torque wrench at its grip, keeping it at a right angle with the pipe, in order to
tighten the fl are nut correctly.
When the fl are nut is tightened properly by your hand, hold the body side coupling with
a separate spanner, then tighten with a torque wrench. (See the table below for the fl are
nut tightening torques.)

Connect the piping so that the control box cover can easily be removed for servicing
when necessary.
In order to prevent water from leaking into the control box, make sure that the piping is
well insulated.
