CAUTION
Be sure to use the insulation of specified thickness. Excessi-
ve thickness may cause incorrect installation of indoor unit
and lack of thickness may cause dew drippage.
5-2 FLARING WORK
Main cause of gas leakage is defect in flaring work. Perform flaring
work correctly in the following procedure.
1.Pipe cutting
Cut the cooper pipe correctly with pipe cutter.
2.Burrs removal
Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section of the pipe.
Put the end of the copper pipe downward to prevent burrs from dropp-
ing in the pipe.
3.Putting nut on
Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and outdoor units, then put them
on pipe having completed burr removal.
(Not possible to put them on after flaring work).
Flare nut for R410A pipe may differ from R22 pipe depending on the di-
ameter of pipe.
4.Flaring work
Perform flaring work using flaring tool as shown below.
