3.2. INSTALLATION POSITION
1. Horizontal Installation
Locate the branch pipes on the same horizontal plane.
(Inclination within 30º)
Make the straight length a minimum of 0.5m after the vertical bend.
CORRECT
0.5m
Horizontally
2. Vertical Installation
Straight length of the pipe connection on the outdoor unit side is made as
follows:
a) The collective pipe connection part is installed upward, the straight
length must be min. 0.5m.
b) The collective pipe connection part is installed downward, the straight
length must be min. 0.3m.
3.3. CONNECTION PROCEDURE FOR PIPING JOINT
When connecting liquid piping for the unit with a capacity 2.0HP or smaller,
and with the length of piping is 15 meters or longer, apply the piping size of
Ø9.53mm.
Fix the connecting pipe as shown in the below figure.
Use the insulation attached to the indoor unit.
Expander for Liquid Line (Accessory)
Flare the pipe after inserting the flare nut
Use the flare nut of the indoor unit

3.4. PIPING CONNECTION
1. Use clean copper pipes without any moisture or foreign materials on inner
surface of pipes. When connecting refrigerant pipe, cut the copper pipes
with a pipe cutter as shown below.
Also blow the pipes with nitrogen or air to remain no dust inside the pipe.
Do NOT use a saw, a grindstone or others which causes a large amount
of cutting powder.

3. Make sure that the stop valves are closed completely.
4. Blow the inside of the pipes with nitrogen when brazing.
DANGER:
Check for the refrigerant leakage in detail. If a large refrigerant leakage
occurs, it will cause difficulty with breathing or harmful gases would
occur if a fire were being used in the room.
5. The airtight test pressure of this product is 4.15MPa.
6. Apply the insulation supplied with these multi-kits to each branch (liquid
side and gas side) with a tape. Also apply the field-supplied insulation to
the field-supplied pipes.
NOTE:
When polyethylene foam is applied, a thickness of 10mm for the liquid
piping and 15mm to 20mm for the gas piping is recommended. (Use
insulation for gas piping with a heat resistance of 100
Do NOT leave a gap
between the insulation
Fix the insulation with
tape (accessory) completely
after taping temporary
CAUTION:
- When the temperature of the piping decrease to room temperature,
perform insulation work. If insulation work is performed immediately
after brazing, insulation can melt.
- If the ends of piping system are open to the atmosphere for a while
after accomplishing piping work, securely put caps or vinyl bags to
the ends of the piping, avoiding the intrusion of moisture and dust.
- After installing work has been finished, it is recommended to keep
this manual by a customer.
