Piping connections: Only flare and brazed connections are allowed. The indoor
and outdoor units have flare connections. Connect both ends without brazing. If
brazing should be needed, take the guidelines in the installer reference guide
into account.
▪
Flare connections: Only use annealed material.

Depending on the applicable legislation and the maximum working pressure of the unit
(see "PS High" on the unit name plate), larger piping thickness might be required.
▪
Use polyethylene foam as insulation material:
-
with a heat transfer rate between 0.041 and 0.052 W/mK (0.035 and
0.045 kcal/mh°C)
-
with a heat resistance of at least 120°C

If the temperature is higher than 30°C and the humidity is higher than RH 80%, the
thickness of the insulation materials should be at least 20 mm to prevent
condensation on the surface of the insulation.
NOTICE
Vibration. To prevent vibration of the refrigerant piping during operation, fixate the
piping between the outdoor and indoor unit.
Before connecting the refrigerant piping
Make sure the outdoor and indoor unit are mounted.
