INFORMATION FOR THE AIR CONDITIONER WITH R410A REFRIGERANT
•This room air conditioner adopts HFC refrigerant (R410A) which never destroys the ozone layer.
•Pay particular attention to the following points, though the basic installation procedure is same as that for R22 air
conditioners.
1As R410A has working pressure approximate 1.6 times as high as that of R22, some special tools and piping parts/
materials are required. Refer to the table below.
2Take sufficient care not to allow water and other contaminations to enter the R410A refrigerant during storage and
installation, since it is more susceptible to contaminations than R22.
3For refrigerant piping, use clean, pressure-proof parts/materials specifically designed for R410A. (Refer to 2. Refrigerant
piping.)
4Composition change may occur in R410A since it is a mixed refrigerant. When charging, charge liquid refrigerant to prevent
composition change.
NOTE : The unit of pressure has been changed to MPa on the international system of units(SI unit system).
The conversion factor is: 1(MPa [Gauge]) =10.2(kgf/ff[Gauge])
New Specification Current Specification
The incompatible refrigeration oil easily separates from
refrigerant and is in the upper layer inside the suction muffler.
Raising position of the oil back hole enables to back the
refrigeration oil of the upper layer to flow back to the
compressor.
Since refrigerant and refrigeration oil are compatible,
refrigeration oil goes back to the compressor through the
lower position oil back hole.

R410A tools Can R22 tools be used?
Gas leak detector
R410A has high pressures beyond the measurement range of existing
gauges. Port diameters have been changed to prevent any other refrigerant
from being charged into the unit.
Hose material and cap size have been changed to improve the pressure
resistance.
Dedicated for HFC refrigerant.
6.35 mm and 9.52 mm
Description
Clamp bar hole has been enlarged to reinforce the spring strength in the tool.
Provided for flaring work (to be used with R22 flare tool).
Provided to prevent the back flow of oil. This adapter enables you to use
vacuum pumps.
It is difficult to measure R410Awith a charging cylinder because the
refrigerant bubbles due to high pressure and high-speed vaporization

1.Tools dedicated for the air conditioner with R410A refrigerant
The following tools are required for R410A refrigerant. Some R22 tools can be substituted for R410A tools.
The diameter of the service port on the stop valve in outdoor unit has been changed to prevent any other refrigerant being
charged into the unit. Cap size has been changed from 7/16 UNF with 20 threads to 1/2 UNF with 20 threads.
2.Refrigerant piping
1Specifications
Use the refrigerant pipes that meet the following specifications.
•Use a copper pipe or a copper-alloy seamless pipe with a thickness of 0.8 mm. Never use any pipe with a thickness less
than 0.8mm, as the pressure resistance is insufficient.

2Flaring work and flare nut
Flaring work for R410A pipe differs from that for R22 pipe.
For details of flaring work, refer to Installation manual “FLARING WORK”.
3.Refrigeration oil
Apply the special refrigeration oil (accessories: packed with indoor unit) to the flare and the union seat surfaces.
4.Air purge
•Do not discharge the refrigerant into the atmosphere.
Take care not to discharge refrigerant into the atmosphere during installation, reinstallation, or repairs to the refrigerant
circuit.
•Use the vacuum pump for air purging for the purpose of environmental protection.
5.Additional charge
For additional charging, charge the refrigerant from liquid phase of the gas cylinder.
If the refrigerant is charged from the gas phase, composition change may occur in the refrigerant inside the cylinder and the
outdoor unit. In this case, capacity of the refrigeration cycle decreases or normal operation can be impossible. However,
charging the liquid refrigerant all at once may cause the compressor to be locked. Thus, charge the refrigerant slowly.
