REFRIGERANT CONECTION FOR UNITS WITH COUPLINGS AND SERVICE VALVES
NOTE: THE REFRIGERANT LINES GAS AND LIQUID, MUST BE INSULATED
Make the refrigerant connections between the outdoor and indoor unit, as follows:
-With the valves closed on outdoor unit, unscrew the flare nuts, removing all the protective hoods.
-Unscrew the flare nuts and the coupling on indoor unit, removing the protecting hoods.
-Introduce the flare nuts in the corresponding union tubes, previously isolated.
-Make the thread union of the tubes in valves and coupling using the keys, as shown in the picture.
-To do vacuum, first close the valves on outdoor unit, second connect the plug of the vacuum pump to the
suction valves service port 1/4”, do vacuum to get an absolute pressure of 0.5 mm Hg. This way the vacuum will
be created in indoor unit and union pipes.
-Remove the plugs and open the valves of outdoor unit.
-Verify leakage in couplings.
-Insulate pipes and service ports.
