To prevent people from touching the parts inside the unit, be sure to install grilles on
the inlet and outlet ports. The grilles must be designed in such a way that cannot be
removed without tools.
Set the external static pressure between 100 and 300 Pa.
If an intake duct is installed, take care not to damage the temperature sensor (the
temperature sensor is attached to the intake port fl ange).
Install the air inlet grille for air circulation. The correct temperature can not be
detected.

4. PIPE INSTALLATION
]
Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with
refrigerant R410A models. Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the openings
by pinching, taping, etc.
While welding the pipes, be sure to blow dry nitrogen gas through them.

4.1. Selecting the pipe material
Do not use existing pipes from another refrigeration system or refrigerant.
Use pipes that have clean external and internal sides without any contamination which
may cause trouble during use, such as sulfur, oxide, dust, cutting waste, oil, or water.
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes.
Material : Phosphor deoxidized seamless copper pipes
It is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10 m.
Do not use copper pipes that have a collapsed, deformed, or discolored portion
(especially on the interior surface). Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube
may become blocked with contaminants.
Improper pipe selection will degrade performance. As an air conditioner using R410A
incurs pressure higher than when using conventional (R22) refrigerant, it is necessary
to choose adequate materials.
• Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in the table.
• Never use copper pipes thinner than those indicated in the table even if they are
available on the market.

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 fl are nuts with a torque wrench using the specifi ed 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.
