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 conditioners.
1 As 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.
2 Take 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.
3 For refrigerant piping, use clean,
4 Composition change may occur in R410A since it is a mixed refrigerant. When charging, charge liquid refrigerant to prevent composition change.
