(2) Servicing (a) Evacuation The evacuation is an procedure to purge impurities..noncondensable gas, air, moisture from the refrigerant equipment by using a vacuum pump. Since the refrigerant R410A is very insoluble in water, even a small amount of moisture left in the refrigerant equipment will freeze, causing what is called water clogging.
1.7 REFRIGERANT PIPING INSTALLATION/SERVICING MANUAL FOR AIR CONDITIONERS USING R410A (These materials are extracted from document issued by The Japan Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry Association) (1) Outline (a) Refrigerant R410A Adoption of R410A in air conditioners In 1974, it was pointed out that the ozone layer in the upper stratosphere (about 20 ~ 40 km above ground) might have been damaged by the ozone depleting substances such as CFC (chlorofluorocarbon) and HCFC (hydrochlorofluorocarbon).
(iii) Lubricating oils for R410A As the lubricating oils for R22, mineral oils, alkylbenze synthetic oils, etc. have so far been used. As R410A features less solubility with these conventional lubricating oils such as mineral oils, the lubricating oils tend to stay within the refrigeration cycle. As the lubricating oils highly soluble with R410A, ester, ethereal and other synthetic oils are available.
Page 48
(ii) Joints For copper pipes, flare joints or socket joints are used. Prior to use, be sure to remove all contaminants. 1) Flare joints Flare joints used to connect the copper pipes cannot be used for pipings whose outer diameter exceeds 20 mm. In such a case, socket joints can be used.
Page 49
4) Flare processing øD Make certain that a clamp bar and copper pipe have been cleaned. By means of the clamp bar, perform the flare processing correctly. Use either a flare tool for R410A or conventional flare tool. Flare processing dimensions differ according to the type of flare tool. Be careful. When using a conventional flare tool, be sure to secure “dimension A”...

Flare and flare nut dimensions for R22 [unit: mm] Dimension (mm) Nominal Outer diameter Thickness Flare nut width diameter (mm) (mm) 6.35 9.52 13.0 13.5 12.70 16.2 16.0 12.9 15.88 19.4 19.0 16.0 (ii) Flare connecting procedures and precautions 1) Make sure that the flare and union portions do not have any scar or dust, etc.
Page 51
(ii) Identification 1) Piping set A copper pipe as piping set for R410A must have a thickness as stated in Table 3 (see on page 46), and, as shown in Tables 5 and 6 (see on page 48), it also differs from R22 in flare processing and flare nut dimensions. So, it is necessary to choose a piping set suitable for R410A.
Page 52
(iii) Flux 1) Reasons for the use of flux • 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. •...
Reducing valve Flow meter Stop valve From the nitrogen cylinder Piping Nitrogen gas Rubber plug for sealing Fig.5 Prevention of oxidation during brazing * Cautions during brazing 1 General cautions 1) The brazing strength should be high as required. 2) After operation, airtightness should be kept under a pressurized condition. 3) During brazing do not allow component materials to become damaged due to overheating.
Page 54
Tools exclusive for R410A 1) Gauge manifold • As R410A is characterized by high pressure, conventional tools cannot be used. Table 11. Differences between conventional high/low pressure gauges and those for R410A Conventional gauges Gauges exclusive for R410A High pressure -0.1~3.5MPa -0.1~5.3MPa gauge (red)
Page 55
5) Flare tool (clutch type) • A flare tool for R410A is provided with a large clamp bar receiving hole so that the projection of the copper pipe from the clamp bar can be set at 0~0.5 mm in flare processing, and also features higher spring strength for increased expansion pipe torque.

6) After charging liquid refrigerant into the air conditioner by closing the charging valve, stop operation by fully closing the gauge manifold’s valve Lo. 2 5 7) Quickly remove the charge hose from the service port. 6 When stopped halfway, refrigerant being cycled will be released. 8) After securing the caps on the service port and control valve, check the caps’...
Refrigerant recharging at servicing When it becomes necessary to recharge refrigerant, charge the specified amount of new refrigerant according to the following steps. (For details, see the instruction manual prepared by the equipment manufacturer) 1) Connect the charge hose to the outdoor unit’s service port. 2) Connect the charge hose to the vacuum pump adapter.
Page 59
(iv) Recovering procedures 1) According to the instructions for handling the refrigerant recovering equipment (described in the attached instruction manual), operate the equipment to recover refrigerant. 2) During the operation, take care of the following cautions. 1 Ascertain that the refrigerant recovering equipment is running as required and always monitor the state of operation so that adequate steps can be taken in an emergency.

(d) SUPER LINK ADAPTER (SC-AD-E) (i) Functions 1) Transmits the settings from the Super link option to the indoor units. 2) Returns the priority indoor unit data in response to a data request from the Super link option. 3) Inspects the error status of connected indoor units and transmits the inspection codes to the Super link option. 4) A maximum of 16 units can be controlled (if in the same operation mode).
2.6 MAINTENANCE DATA (1) Troubleshooting procedures for electrical equipment (a) Cautions 1 If you are disassembling and checking an air conditioner, be sure to turn off the power before beginning. When working on indoor units, let the unit sit for about 1 minute after turning off the power before you begin work. When working on an outdoor unit, there may be an electrical charge applied to the main circuit (electrolytic condenser), so begin work only after discharging this electrical charge (to DC 10 V or lower).

(d) Troubleshooting procedure (If the air conditioner runs) Confirm the contents of the customer complaint. The cause of the trouble can be specifically identified. Eliminate the cause of the trouble and perform an Check the self-diagnosis display. operation check. See pages 107. Is an error code displayed by Using the Service Mode, access the self-diagnosis the self-diagnosis function?

(e) Self-diagnosis table When this air conditioner performs an emergency stop, the reason why the emergency stop occurred is displayed by the flashing of display lights. If the air conditioner is operated using the remote control 3 minutes or more after the emergency stop, the trouble display stops and the air conditioner resumes operation.

Service mode (Trouble mode access function) This air conditioner is capable of recording error displays and protective stops (service data) which have occurred in the past. If self-diagnosis displays cannot be confirmed, it is possible to get a grasp of the conditions at the time trouble occurred by checking these service data.

◆ Power transistor inspection procedure [Use a tester with a needle indicator for the inspection. (Do not use a digital tester. Check in the AC 300 volt range.)] 1) If there is a self-diagnosis display, inspect the compressor system (burns, wiring mistakes, etc.). If no problems are found, check the output of the power transistor.
(2) Servicing (a) Evacuation The evacuation is an procedure to purge impurities..noncondensable gas, air, moisture from the refrigerant equipment by using a vacuum pump. Since the refrigerant R410A is very insoluble in water, even a small amount of moisture left in the refrigerant equipment will freeze, causing what is called water clogging.
