1 Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged.

2 When using a cylinder equipped with a siphon, liquid can be charged without turning it upside down.

It is necessary for charging refrigerant under condition of liquid because R410A is mixed type of refrigerant. Accordingly, when charging refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder to the equipment, charge it turning the cylinder upside down if cylinder is not equipped with siphon.

R410A refrigerant is HFC mixed refrigerant. Therefore, if it is charged with gas, the composition of the charged refrigerant changes and the characteristics of the equipment varies.

2-5. Brazing of Pipes

2-5-1. Materials for brazing

(1)Silver brazing filler

Silver brazing filler is an alloy mainly composed of silver and copper. It is used to join iron, copper or copper alloy, and is relatively expensive though it excels in solderability.

(2)Phosphor bronze brazing filler

Phosphor bronze brazing filler is generally used to join copper or copper alloy.

(3)Low temperature brazing filler

Low temperature brazing filler is generally called solder, and is an alloy of tin and lead. Since it is weak in adhesive strength, do not use it for refrigerant pipes.

1 Phosphor bronze brazing filler tends to react with sulfur and produce a fragile compound water solution, which may cause a gas leakage. Therefore, use any other type of brazing filler at a hot spring resort, etc., and coat the surface with a paint.

2 When performing brazing again at time of servicing, use the same type of brazing filler.

2-5-2. Flux

(1)Reason why flux is necessary

•By removing the oxide film and any foreign matter on the metal surface, it assists the flow of brazing filler.

•In the brazing process, it prevents the metal surface from being oxidized.

•By reducing the brazing filler’s surface tension, the brazing filler adheres better to the treated metal.

RAS-13UAV-E2, RAS-13UKV-E2 specifications

The Toshiba RAS-13UKV-E2 and RAS-13UAV-E2 air conditioning units represent a significant step forward in both comfort and energy efficiency. Designed for residential and light commercial use, these models are packed with features that cater to diverse climate control needs while adhering to modern standards of sustainability.

One of the standout features of both models is the implementation of inverter technology. This advanced system allows for more precise temperature control by adjusting the compressor speed based on the ambient temperature requirements. This not only enhances energy efficiency but also ensures a quieter operation compared to traditional air conditioning systems. As a result, users benefit from consistent comfort without the disruptive sounds often associated with cooling units.

The RAS-13UKV-E2 and RAS-13UAV-E2 also feature a high energy efficiency rating, which is crucial for reducing electricity bills. The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) is a vital measure of energy efficiency over an entire cooling season. Both units excel in this regard, making them an environmentally friendly choice. This is further supported by Toshiba's commitment to incorporating R32 refrigerant, known for its lower environmental impact compared to older refrigerants.

User convenience is enhanced with integrated smart controls. Both models are compatible with wireless remote control features, allowing for easy adjustments from a distance. This is complemented by programmable settings that let users schedule operation times, ensuring that the units run only when needed, which further optimizes energy consumption.

Design-wise, these air conditioners boast a sleek and modern appearance, making them a visually appealing addition to any room. They are constructed with durable materials that ensure longevity and reliability. Moreover, the filters are designed for easy maintenance, ensuring cleaner indoor air quality and prolonging the lifespan of the unit.

The Toshiba RAS-13UKV-E2 and RAS-13UAV-E2 units also come equipped with advanced air purification technologies. These features help to reduce airborne pollutants and allergens, contributing to a healthier indoor environment. With exceptional cooling and heating capabilities, easy installation, and advanced features, these models are designed to meet the modern user's needs for comfort, efficiency, and health. Overall, they represent an excellent investment in both cooling technology and eco-friendly practices.
