8.4 Air purging of the piping and indoor unit
Required tools:
Hexagonal wrench; adjustable wrench; torque wrenches, wrench to hold the joints and gas leak
detector.
Note:
The air in the indoor unit and in the piping must be purged. If air remains in the refrigeration
piping, it will affect the compressor, reduce the cooling capacity, and could lead to a malfunction
of unit.
Be sure, using a torque wrench to tighten the service port cap (after using the service port), so
that it prevents the gas leakage from the refrigeration cycle.
Procedure:
1. Recheck the piping connections.
2. Open the valve stem of the 2-way valve counterclockwise approximately 90’, wait 10 seconds, and
then set it to closed position.
Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate the valve stem
3. Check for gas leakage.
Check the flare connection for gas leakage
4. Purge the air from the system.
5. Set the 2-way valve to the open position and remove the cap from the 3-way valve’s service port.
6. Using the hexagonal wrench to press the valve core pin, discharge for three seconds and then wait
for one minute.
7. Use torque wrench to tighten the service port cap to a torque of 1.8 kg.m. (18n.m)
8. Set the 3-way valve to the opened position.
9. Mounted the valve stem nuts to the 2-way and 3-way valves.
10. Check for gas leakage.
11. At this time, especially check for gas leakage from the 2-way and 3-way stem nuts, and from the
- 17 -
Service manual
service port.
Caution:
If gas leakage is discovered in step (3) above, take the following measures.
If the leaks stop when the piping connections are tightened further, continue working from step
(4).
If the gas leaks do not stop when the connections are retightened, repair the location of the
leak, discharge all of the gas through the service port, and then recharge with the specified
amount of gas from a gas cylinder.
8.5 Pumping down (Re-installation)
Procedure:
1. Confirm that both the 2-way and 3-way valves are set to the opened position.
Remove the valve stem caps and confirm that the valve stems are in the opened position.
Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate the valve stems.
2. Operate the unit for 10 to 15 minutes.
3. Stop operation and wait for 3 minutes, then connect the charge set to the service port of the 3-way
valve.
Connect the charge hose with the push pin to the gas service port.
4. Air purging of the charge hose.
Open the low-pressure valve on the charge set slightly to purge air from the charge hose.
5. Set the 2-way valve to the close position.
6. Operate the air conditioner at the cooling cycle and stop it when the gauge indicates 0.1MPa.
7. Immediately set the 3-way valve to the closed position.
- 18 -
Service manual
Do this quickly so that the gauge ends up indicating 0.3 to 0.5Mpa.
8. Disconnect the charge set, and amount the 2-way and 3-way valve’s stem nuts and service port
caps.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the service port cap to a torque of 1.8 kg.m.
Be sure to check for gas leakage.
8.6 Re-air purging (Re-installation)
Procedure:
1. Confirm that both the 2-way and 3-way valves are set to the closed position.
2. Connect the charge set and a charging cylinder to the service port of the 3-way valve.
3. Leave the valve on the charging cylinder closed.
4. Air purging.
5. Open the valves on the charging cylinder and the charge set. Purge the air by loosening the flare
nut on the 2-way valve approximately 45’ for 3 seconds then closing it for 1 minutes; repeat 3 times.
6. After purging the air, use a torque wrench to tighten the flare nut to on the 2-way valve.
7. Check the gas leakage.
8. Check the flare connections for gas leakage.
9. Discharge the refrigerant.
10. Close the valve on the charging cylinder and discharge the refrigerant until the gauge indicate 0.3
to 0.5 Mpa.
11. Disconnect the charge set and the charging cylinder, and set the 2-way and 3-way valves to the
open position.
12. Be sure to use a hexagonal wrench to operate the valve stems.
13. Mount the valve stems nuts and the service port cap.
Be sure to use a torque wrench to tighten the service port cap to a torque 18N.m.
Be sure to check the gas leakage.

8.7 Balance refrigerant of the 2-way, 3-way valves
Procedure:
1. Confirm that both the 2-way and 3-way valves are set to the open position.
2. Connect the charge set to the 3-way valve’s service port.
Leave the valve on the charge set closed.
Connect the charge hose with the push pin to the service port.
3. Open the valves (Low side) on the charge set and discharge the refrigerant until the gauge indicates
0.05 to 0.1 Mpa.
If there is no air in the refrigeration cycle [the pressure when the air conditioner is not running is higher than
0.1Mpa, discharge the refrigerant until the gauge indicates 0.05 to 0.1 Mpa. If this is the case, it will not be
necessary to apply a evacuation.
Discharge the refrigeration gradually; if it is discharged too suddenly, the refrigeration oil sill be discharged.
- 20 -
8.8 Evacuation
Service manual
Procedure:
1. Connect the vacuum pump to the charge set’s centre hose.
2. Evacuation for approximately one hour.
Confirm that the gauge needle has moved toward -0.1 Mpa (-76 cmHg) [vacuum of 4 mmHg or less].
3. Close the valve (Low side) on the charge set, turn off the vacuum pump, and confirm that the gauge
needle does not move (approximately 5 minutes after turning off the vacuum pump).
4. Disconnect the charge hose from the vacuum pump.
Vacuum pump oil, if the vacuum pump oil becomes dirty or depleted, replenish as needle.

cylinder.
2. Purge the air from the charge hose.
Open the valve at the bottom of the cylinder and press the check valve on the charge set to purge the air (be
careful of the liquid refrigerant).
3. Open the valves (Low side) on the charge set and charge the system with liquid refrigerant.
If the system cannot be charge with the specified amount of refrigerant, if can be charged with a little at a time
(approximately 150g each time0 while operating the air conditioner in the cooling cycle; however, one time is not
sufficient, wait approximately 1 minute and then repeat the procedure.(pumping down-pin).
4. Immediately disconnect the charge hose from the 3-way valve’s service port.
Stopping partway will allow the refrigerant to be discharged.
If the system has been charged with liquid refrigerant while operating the air conditioner, turn off the air
conditioner before disconnecting the hose.
