3.2.2.3 Pipe Bending
(1) The pipes are shaped by your hands. Be careful not to collapse them.
(2) Do not bend the pipes in an angle more than 90°.
(3) If the pipe is repeatedly bent or extended, it will become hard and difficult to
be bent or extended. So do not bend or extend the pipe for more than 3
times.
(4) When bending the pipe, do not bend it
excessively, otherwise it will get
broken. As shown beside, use a sharp
cutter to cut the heat insulating pipe
and bend it after the pipe is exposed.
After bending, place the heat
insulating pipe b
ack on the pipeline
and fix it with adhesive tape.
3.2.2.4 Connection Pipe Of The Units

3.2.3 Connection Pipe Vacuum Pumping and Leak Detection
3.2.3.1 Vacuum Pumping
①Make sure the outlet of vacuum pump is away from fire source and is
well-ventilated.
②Before vacuum pumping, make sure the unit cut-off valves are closed.
(1) Remove the caps of the liquid valve, gas valve and also the service port.
(2) Connect the hose at the low pressure side of the manifold valve assembly to
the service port of the unit’s gas valve, and meanwhile the gas and liquid
valves should be kept closed in case of refrigerant leak.
(3) Connect the hose used for evacuation to the vacuum pump.
(4) Open the switch at the lower pressure side of the manifold valve assembly
and start the vacuum pump. Meanwhile, the switch at the high pressure side
of the manifold valve assembly should be kept closed, otherwise evacuation
would fail.
(5) The evacuation duration depends on the unit’s capacity, generally.

And verify if the pressure gauge at the low pressure side of the manifold
valve assembly reads >750 Microns if not, it indicates there is leak somewhere.
Then, close the switch fully and then stop the vacuum pump.
(6) Wait for 10min to see if the system pressure can remain unchanged. During
this time, the reading of the pressure gauge at the low pressure side can not
be larger than 37 Microns.
(7) Slightly open the liquid valve and let some refrigerant go to the connection
pipe to balance the pressure inside and outside of the connection pipe, so
that airwill not come into the connection pipe when removing the hose.
Note that the gas and liquid valve can be opened fully only after the
manifold valve assembly isremoved.
