Installation Of Connecting Pipe - Giatsu GIA-CEN-10KOMP Manuel D'installation

4 Installation of Connecting Pipe

4.1 Refrigerant pipe
1) Flaring
Use a pipe cutter to cut the refrigerant pipe and a pipe expander to flare
Fig. 4-1 Cutting Pipe of Connecting Pipe
2) Fastening nut
Align the connecting pipe, tighten it by hand, and then by a wrench.

!
NOTE
· To prevent the copper pipe from internal oxidation upon welding, the copper pipe shall be filled with nitrogen. Otherwise, the oxide skin
will block the refrigeration system!
· When fastening the nut, too strong force will damage the flared socket, but too weak force will result in leakage. Please refer to the
tightening torque in the table above to fasten the nuts!
