5. REFRIGERANT TUBING

5-1. Use of the Flaring Method

The refrioerant tubing for every split type air conditioner must be connected by flaring. In this method, the cooper tubes are flared at each end and connected with flare nuts.

5-2. Flaring procedure with a Flaring Tool

  • a) Cut the cooper tube to proper length with a tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx, 12 ~ 20 in, longer than the estimated tubing length
  • b) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a reamer or a file. This process is important and should be done carefully to make a good flare. Fig. 22

NOTE : When rearning, hold the copper tube end downward and be sure that no copper scraps fall into the tube. Fig. 23

d) Make a flare at the end of copper tube with a flaring tool*. Fig.24 (*Use "RIGID" or equivalent.)

NOTA : Good flare should have following conditions:

  • Inside surface is glossy and smooth.
  • Edge is smooth.
  • Tapered sides are in uniform length.
5-3. Caution before connecting tubes tightly

  • a) Be sure to apply blind cap or water proof tape to prevent dust or water from getting into the copper tube, until it is used.
  • b) Be sure to apply refrigeration oil to the matching surfaces of flare and union before connecting them together. This is effective for reducing gas leaks. Fig. 25
  • c) For proper connection, hold the tube with union and the flared tube straight with each other, screw in the flare nut lightly at first to obtain smooth match. Fig. 26

Fia. 25

Fig. 26

c) Remove the flare nut from the unit and be sure to mount it on the copper tube.

Page 22
5-4. Connecting Tubes between Indoor and Outdoor Units

  • 1. Connect the indoor side refrigerant tubing extended from the wall with the outdoor side tubing tightly.
  • 2. Flare nut on large dia. tube should be torqued to 510 ~ 550 lb in. Flare nut small dia. tube should be torqued to 130 ~ 170 lb in. Fig. 27
  • 3. After performing a leak test on the connecting part, insulate it with INSUL. NIPPLE and finish with a vinyl masking tape over it. Fig. 28
  • CAUTION: Never connect up tubes by brazing them. If it is inevitable, be sure to blow nitrogen gas while brazing to avoid oxidation of inside copper tube.
5-5. Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing

Because the capillary tube is installed in the outdoor unit, both wide and narrow tubes of this air conditioner become cold. Therefore, to prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of condensation, both tubes must be well insulated with proper insulation material. Thickness of insulation material should be min. 5/16", Fig. 29

Insulation material

The material must of course have good insulation characteristics, be easy to use, age resistant, and must not easily absorb moisture. The following is recommended; foamed polyethylene or equivalent.

5-6. Taping the Tubes

  • a) At this time, the two refrigerant tubes (and electrical wire if code permits) should be taped together with armoring tape. The drain pipe may also be included and taped together as one bundle with the tubing.
  • b) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor unit to the top of the tubing, where it enters the wall. As you wrap the tubing cover half of each previous tape turn. Fig. 30
  • c) Clamp tubing bundle to wall, one clamp every 4' approx.
  • NOTE : Do not wind the armoring tape around too tightly since this will impair the heat insulation effect. Also be sure condensation drain hose splits away from bundle.
5-7. Finishing the Installation

After finishing insulation and taping over tubing, fill the void space with putty to prevent rain and draft from entering. Fig. 31

Fig. 27

Fig. 28

6 AIR PURCING

Air does not function as a refrigerant, because it cannot be liquefied in the condenser. Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system have undesirable effects as indicated at right. Therefore they must be purged completely.

TUBING DIAGRAM FOR AIR PURGING

  • The pressure in the system rises.
  • The operating current rises.
  • Cooling and heating efficiency drops
  • Water contained in the air may freeze and block the capillary tubing
  • Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant circuit.

Inadequate refrigerant charge may cause freeze-up problem of the evaporator. Follow the CANTION correct air purging procedures and be sure not to overbleed refrigerant.

6.1 Duick Air Purne System

New quick air purge system represents purging the air in the indoor unit and connection tub with the aid of refrigerant has precharged in the outdoor unit

In this system, air purging has become much simpler and installation time has become shorter than conventional methods.

  • * Interval required for air purging is only 20 records
  • NOIS: Outdoor unit is pre-charged at the factory. Don't open valves until tubing is

hooked up and you are ready to proceed with purging procedure.

6-2 Air Purging Procedure

  • a) Remove the valve caps from the service valves on the narrow and wide tubes.
  • b) Slacken off the flare nut at the charging port one full turn. Fig. 33
  • c) Open the service valve on the narrow tube by 90 degrees (1/4 turn).
  • (During this operation, air will be discharged from the charging port of the service valve on the wide tube.)
  • d) 30 seconds after opening the spindle, properly tighten up the flare nut of the charging port.

* Check port is provided for measuring system pressure with a pressure gauge or the like during service.

  • e) Shut the spindle of the service valve on the narrow tube. Fig. 34
  • f) Leak test the joints with liquid soap. Fig. 35 g) Fully open the spindles of the service valves on the wide tube and the narrow tube.
  • h) Next, install a valve cap in which coppe
  • gasket has been inserted. Fig. 36 Here, all air purge procedure has completed and the unit is ready for trial operation.

SERVICE VALVE CONSTRUCTION

• Valve Position -a-

The valve spindles of both wide & narrow tubes are turned all the way in. The unit is shipped from the factory in this position. Fig. 37-a

• Valve Position -b-

The valve spindles of both wide & narrow tubes are turned all the way out ("BACK SEAT" position). This is the normal operating position. Fig. 37-b

• Valve Position -c-

With the narrow tube valve kept at BACK SEAT, only the wide tube valve spindle is turned halfway-down position. This position is used for pressure measurement and gas charging. Fig. 37-c

Valve Position -d-

Like position -a-, but with the flare nut of wide tube open. This position is used for air purging. Fig. 37-d

PUMP DOWN

Pump down means collecting all refrigerant in the system back into the outdoor unit without losing refrigerant gas. Pump down is used when unit is moved or for servicing the refrigerant circuit.

  • 1) Close valve on wide tube halfway (2 turns).
  • 2) Close valve on narrow tube all the way (4 turns).
  • 3) Turn unit on (cooling) for approximately 3 minutes then shut off.
  • 4) Close valve on wide tube all the way (2 additional turns).
  • 5) Disconnect tubes slowly allowing pressure to equalize inside and out.
  • 6) When tubing is disconnected provide dust covers for both valves and tubes until unit is reconnected.
Page 25
7. PRECAUTIONS BEFORE STARTING

After insulation, be sure to bind up insulation material and refrigerant tubings with a water-proof tape so as rain should not creep into the insulation material and wiring.

  • Before attempting to start the air conditioner, check the following:
  • a) All loose matter is removed from the cabinet especially steel fillings and chips.
  • b) Contro! wirings are correctly connected and all electrical connections tight.
  • c) Check to see if compressor fixing bolts (3 pcs), which secure compressor during transportation, are screwed-in as in Fig. 39. If not, screw them in.
  • d) Be sure to confirm that all shut-off valves are open.
  • e) Power connected to unit for at least five hours before starting the compressor. The bottom of compressor should be warm to the touch and crankcase heater around the feet of the compressor should be hot to the touch.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

Before installing the new compressor, check for possible system contamination by the following procedure:

  • Place about 10 cc of the oil from the old compressor into a transparent container and visually check the degree of oil contamination. If the oil has a slight burnt odor but no color change or residue, and ordinary compressor replacement accoring to the instructions below may be carried out.
  • If the oil has a burnt pungent odor and shows contamination (dark color with tiny particles of metal) the system must be cleaned sufficiently with a suction filter or a drier-strainer and then replace the oil drier with a new one.
  • However, if just the compressor is replaced without sufficient system cleaning, contaminated oil may cause the buring of the compressor again,
  • If the oil compressor is to be scrapped, by pinching the terminal section with a pair of pliers, there should not be any chance of it being mistakenly used.
  • 2) 1) With an Oxγacetylene torch, unbraze the joint between the suction tube and the tip of the accumulator A) and pull free with pliers
    • 2) Unbraze the joints on the compressor discharge tube (B), then pull free with pliers.
    • 3) Unbraze the auxiliary tube (C) connected to the liquid injection tube. Fig. D-13.
CAUTION:

Plastic material in a check valve or a 4-way reversing valve is weak against direct heat.

When brazing or unbrazing across such parts, be sure to provide damp cloth over them and special care should be taken so as not to burn internal components.

3) 1) Take off the 2 screws (a) to remove the capillary tube from the compressor. Fig. D-14

  • 4) 1) Cut the portion (a) of the auxiliary tube connected to the capillary tube with a tube cutter. The auxiliary tube will be reused so should not be thrown away. Fig. D-15
    • 2) To remove the compressor raise it straight and disengage from the base unit.
    • Remove the cushion nubbers from the old compressor (3 sets) and save them.
