Performing the gas leak tests

Make sure to check for gas leaks before completing the installation process (connecting the assembly pipe and hose between indoor unit and outdoor unit, insulating the cables, hose and pipe, and fixing the indoor unit to the installation plate).

Before inspecting the leakage, use a torque wrench to close the cap for the service valve. (Comply with a tightening torque for each size of the diameter,and tighten the cap firmly to prevent any leakage.).

To check for any possible leakage, insert inert gas into the pipes connected to indoor/outdoor units and check the connection part of the indoor/outdoor units with soap lather or liquid for leakage test.

To check for gas leaks on the outdoor unit,

( 1 N•m = 10 kgf•cm )

Check the valve A and B using a leak detector.

 

To check for gas leaks on the indoor unit,

 

Check the flare nut C and D using a leak detector.

 

Leak test with nitrogen (before opening valves)

In order to detect basic refrigerant leaks, before recreating the vacuum and recirculating the R-410A.

Leak test (after opening valves)

Before opening valves, discharge all the nitrogen from the system and create vacuum according to page 48~50. After opening valves, check leaks using a leak detector for refrigerant.

Pump down (before disconnecting the refrigerant connections for unit repair, removal or disposal) Pump-down is an operation intended to collect all the system refrigerant in the outdoor unit.

This operation must be carried out before disconnecting the refrigerant tubing in order to avoid refrigerant loss to the atmosphere.

Shut off the liquid valve with the Allen wrench.

Turn the system on in cooling with fan operating at high velocity.

(Compressor will immediately start, provided 3 minutes have elapsed since the last stop).

After 2 minutes of operation, shut the suction valve with the same wrench.

Turn the system off and switch mains supply off.

Disconnect tubing. After disconnection, protect valves and tubing ends from dust.

Compressor damage may occur if run at a negative suction pressure.

Samsung AR18JRFNEWKXMG Performing the gas leak tests, English-51, Outer Tightening torque, Leak test after opening valves

AR18JQFSBWK/MG, AR12JRFNBWK/MG, AR24JRFNCWKXMG, AR24JRFNCWKNMG, AR24JRFNCWK/MG specifications

Samsung has consistently been a pioneer in the field of air conditioning technology, and their latest models, including the AR18JRFNEWKXMG, AR18JQFNEWKXMG, AR18JRFNEWKNMG, AR18JQSDBWK/MG, and AR24JQFNCWK/MG, exemplify this commitment to innovation and performance. Each of these units is equipped with advanced features designed to enhance comfort and efficiency in any setting.

One of the prominent characteristics of these models is the Digital Inverter technology. By adjusting the compressor's speed based on the cooling demand, this feature significantly reduces energy consumption compared to traditional models, leading to lower electricity bills while maintaining optimal room temperature. This energy efficiency is further bolstered by the units’ high Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings, ensuring that they operate smoothly even in extreme temperature conditions.

In addition to energy efficiency, these Samsung air conditioners are designed for convenience and ease of use. They come with a Smart Wi-Fi feature, allowing users to control their AC units remotely via a smartphone app. This capability not only provides comfort but also adds to the user-friendly experience by enabling programmable schedules and real-time monitoring of energy consumption.

Another noteworthy feature is the Air Purification System. Equipped with a triple filter system, including a PM 1.0 filter, these units capture and eliminate dust, allergens, and harmful particles from the air, resulting in improved indoor air quality. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with allergies or respiratory conditions.

Noise reduction is another area where these models shine. With near-silent operation, users can enjoy a peaceful environment without the disturbing sounds often associated with traditional air conditioning units. This is complemented by the sleek and modern design, which seamlessly fits into various home décors.

All of these features come together to create air conditioning solutions that not only provide exceptional cooling performance but also contribute to a sustainable lifestyle. Samsung’s dedication to customer-centric design and cutting-edge technology makes these models an excellent choice for anyone seeking reliable and efficient climate control solutions in their homes or offices.
