3-5. Caution Before Connecting Tubes Tightly

a)Be sure to apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape to

prevent dust or water from getting into the tubes before they are used.

b)Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the flare and union before connecting them together. This is effective for reducing gas leaks.

(Fig. 12)

c)For proper connection, align the union tube and flare tube straight with each other, then screw in the flare nut lightly at first to obtain a smooth match. (Fig. 13)

3-6. Tubing Connections

a)Temporary connection:

Screw in 3 – 5 rotations by hand. (Fig.14)

b)To fasten the flare nuts, apply specified torque as:

Table 4

Tube Dia.	Tightening Torque
6.35 mm	14 – 18 N·m (140 – 180 kgf · cm)
9.52 mm	34 – 42 N·m (340 – 420 kgf · cm)
12.70 mm	49 – 61 N·m (490 – 610 kgf · cm)
15.88 mm	68 – 82 N·m (680 – 820 kgf · cm)
