a Flare's inner surface MUST be flawless.
b The pipe end MUST be evenly flared in a perfect circle.
c Make sure the flare nut is fitted.
The indoor unit and outdoor unit have flare connections. Connect both ends
without brazing. If brazing should be needed, take the following into account:
▪
When brazing, blow through with nitrogen to prevent creation of large quantities
of oxidised film on the inside of the piping. This film adversely affects valves and
compressors in the refrigerating system and prevents proper operation.
▪
Set the nitrogen pressure to 20 kPa (0.2 bar) (just enough so it can be felt on the
skin) with a pressure-reducing valve.

▪
Do NOT use anti-oxidants when brazing pipe joints.
Residue can clog pipes and break equipment.
▪
Do NOT use flux when brazing copper-to-copper refrigerant piping. Use phosphor
copper brazing filler alloy (BCuP), which does NOT require flux.
Flux has an extremely harmful influence on refrigerant piping systems. For
instance, if chlorine based flux is used, it will cause pipe corrosion or, in
particular, if the flux contains fluorine, it will deteriorate the refrigerant oil.
▪
ALWAYS protect the surrounding surfaces (e.g. insulation foam) from heat when
brazing.
1 Remove the stop valve cover.
