2.5Piping Considerations
The Liebert
Two methods exist for installing the copper suction and liquid lines:
•Using optional
•Using optional Sweat Adapter Kit(s) and hard piping between units.

Risk of improper handling of refrigerant. Can cause environmental damage and violation of environmental regulations.
Refrigerant must handled in accordance with all national, regional and local codes.

NOTE
When installing field piping, care must be taken to protect all refrigerant lines from the atmosphere, especially when using refrigerants with POE oils. Do not allow the piping to stand open to air for more than 15 minutes. Units designed for
NOTE
Complete all piping and evacuate lines before connecting quick connects when using an optional sweat adapter kit and field installed hard piping.
Follow all proper brazing practices including a dry nitrogen purge to maintain system cleanliness.
2.5.1Piping for Elevation Differences between PFH and Evaporator
System sizes affect the maximum equivalent piping lengths and maximum relative elevation differ- ences between evaporator and condensing unit mounting locations. See Table 5 for requirements.
Traps in refrigerant piping are required when elevation differences exist between evaporator and con- densing unit mounting locations. See Figure 12 for requirements. Table 6 should be used when traps are required with
