Mitsubishi Electric PURY-P350YJM-A [16/39] Refrigerant piping system

6 Use a ﬁ tting if a speciﬁ ed refrigerant pipe has a different diameter from that

of a branching pipe.

7 Always observe the restrictions on the refrigerant piping (such as rated

length, height difference, and piping diameter) to prevent equipment failure

or a decline in heating/cooling performance.

8 Either a lack or an excess of refrigerant causes the unit to make an

emergency stop. Charge the system with an appropriate amount of

refrigerant. When servicing, always check the notes concerning pipe

length and amount of additional refrigerant at both locations, the refrigerant

volume calculation table on the back of the service panel and the additional

refrigerant section on the labels for the combined number of indoor units

(Refer to item 9.2. for detailed information on refrigerant piping system).

9 Be sure to charge the system using liquid refrigerant.

0 Never use refrigerant to perform an air purge. Always evacuate using a

vacuum pump.

a Always insulate the piping properly. Insufﬁ cient insulation will result in a

decline in heating/cooling performance, water drops from condensation and

other such problems (Refer to item 10.4 for thermal insulation of refrigerant

piping).

b When connecting the refrigerant piping, make sure the valve of the outdoor

unit is completely closed (the factory setting) and do not operate it until

the refrigerant piping for the outdoor, indoor units and BC controller has

been connected, a refrigerant leakage test has been performed and the

evacuation process has been completed.

c Braze only with non-oxide brazing material for piping. Failure to do so

may damage the compressor. Be sure to perform the non-oxidation

brazing with a nitrogen purge.

Do not use any commercially available anti-oxidizing agent since it may

cause pipe corrosion and degrading of the refrigerant oil.

Please contact Mitsubishi Electric for more details.

(Refer to item 10.2. for details of the piping connection and valve operation)

d Never perform outdoor unit piping connection work when it is raining.

Warning:

When installing and moving the unit, do not charge the system with any

other refrigerant other than the refrigerant speciﬁ ed on the unit.

- Mixing of a different refrigerant, air, etc. may cause the refrigerant cycle to

malfunction and may result in severe damage.

Caution:

Use a vacuum pump with a reverse ﬂ ow check valve.

- If the vacuum pump does not have a reverse ﬂ ow check valve, the vacuum

pump oil may ﬂ ow back into the refrigerant cycle and cause deterioration of

the refrigerant oil.

Do not use the tools shown below used with conventional refrigerant.

(Gauge manifold, charge hose, gas leak detector, check valve,

refrigerant charge base, vacuum gauge, refrigerant recovery

equipment)

- Mixing of conventional refrigerant and refrigerant oil may cause the

refrigerant oil to deteriorate.

- Mixing of water will cause the refrigerant oil to deteriorate.

- R410A refrigerant does not contain any chlorine. Therefore, gas leak

detectors for conventional refrigerants will not react to it.

Manage the tools used for R410A more carefully than normal.

- If dust, dirt, or water gets in the refrigerant cycle, the refrigerant oil will

deteriorate.

Never use existing refrigerant piping.

- The large amount of chlorine in conventional refrigerant and refrigerant oil

in the existing piping will cause the new refrigerant to deteriorate.

Store the piping to be used during installation indoors and keep both

ends of the piping sealed until just before brazing.

- If dust, dirt, or water gets into the refrigerant cycle, the oil will deteriorate

and the compressor may fail.

Do not use a charging cylinder.

- Using a charging cylinder may cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.

Do not use special detergents for washing piping.

*1 The pipe sizes listed in columns A1 to A2 in this table correspond to the sizes

for the models listed in the unit 1 and 2 columns. When the order of unit 1 and

2 is changed, make sure to use the appropriate pipe size for the model.

Precautions for outdoor unit combinations

Refer to [Fig. 9.2.2] for the positioning of twinning pipes.

[Fig. 9.2.2] (P.6)

<A> The piping from the outdoor units to twinning pipe must be made to slope

downwards the twinning pipe. (high-pressure side only)

<B> Slope of twinning pipes (high-pressure side only)

Make sure the slope of the twinning pipes are at an angle within ±15° to the

ground.

If the slope exceeds the speciﬁ ed angle, the unit may be damaged.

<C> Pipe connection example

The distributor on the low-pressure side must be placed in the outdoor

unit that has a larger capacity index of the two, regardless of the relative

positions of the outdoor units or their addresses.

(If outdoor units that have the same capacity are used in combination, the

distributor can be placed in either outdoor unit.)

If the distributor is placed in the outdoor unit that has a smaller capacity,

refrigerant will not be properly distributed and compressor failure may result.

Caution:

Do not install traps other than the ones between outdoor units

described on a separate sheet to prevent oil backﬂ ow and compressor

start-up failure.

Do not install solenoid valves to prevent oil backﬂ ow and compressor

start-up failure.

Do not install a sight glass because it may show improper refrigerant

ﬂ ow.

If a sight glass is installed, inexperienced technicians that use the

glass may overcharge the refrigerant.
