 Excessive tightening may damage horn mouth and

lead to refrigerant leakage.

5.2 Air tightness leakage detection

 Conduct air tightness leakage detection

confirmation at the end of piping work.

 Leakage detection method:

(a) Fill dry compressed nitrogen into indoor unit and

piping system, and slowly boost the pressure to

4.3MPa;

(b) After maintaining pressure for 10min, coat soapy

water or other foaming agent at the connection

position such as weld and thread joint, and

observe whether there is leakage;

position after pressure relief.

(d) Fill into dry compressed nitrogen again and

slowly boost the pressure to 4.3MPa;

(e) Start to record the reading of pressure gauge after

maintaining pressure for 6h, and then record the

reading of pressure gauge again after 24h;

(f) If no pressure drop, then the air tightness is

qualified. If any pressure drop, find out the

leakage point and repair, and then repeat the

above d and e procedures until qualified.

 Pressure reading is related to temperature

variation, so the temperature variation factor shall

be considered when judging whether there is

pressure drop. The relation of pressure correction

value and temperature variation is:

 In air tightness test, do not connect indoor unit

and outdoor unit, otherwise, nitrogen may leak to

outdoor unit.

5.3 Thermal insulation

 If no leakage after inspection, respectively wrap

liquid pipe, gas pipe and each connecting position

with thick-enough heat-resistant polyethylene, and

conduct good thermal insulation.

 Field piping must be connected to the piping

connecting part all the time. If poor thermal

insulation for piping, there will be dew outside

and scald if any touch.

6. Installation of Drainage Piping

6.1 Drainage piping installation

 In delivery, the drainage outlet is PVC pipe; in

connecting water pipe, please use auxiliary

sealing material and sleeve.

 Conduct thermal insulation for drainage pipe of

indoor unit, otherwise, condensation may be

caused. The connecting part of indoor unit must

also be subjected to thermal insulation treatment.

 Before installation, please confirm whether the

connection condition of pump defrosting tray and

the surface thermal insulation are intact.

 For drainage pipe connection, use hard PVC

binding agent and confirm there is no leakage.

 The junction of drainage pipe and drainage outlet

of indoor unit must be free from bearing any force,

including water pipe gravity.

 The downward inclination of drainage pipe shall

be above (1/100) and the middle shall be free

from bending.

 The transverse pull-out of drainage pipe shall be

within 20m. If the drainage pipe is longer, please

arrange a support to prevent bending.

 Drainage system joints must be sealed against

water leakage.

 The height from drainage pipe end to ground or

drainage channel bottom shall be larger than

50mm, and the drainage pipe end shall not be put

into water. When directly discharging condensed

water into foul ditch, bend drainage pipe upward

to a U-shaped water seal in order to avoid odor

entering into room through drainage pipe.

 For concentrated construction of drainage pipe of

multiple indoor units during suspended ceiling

installation (with pump), arrange U-shaped bend

at the branch water pipe connecting each indoor

unit to prevent water return from main drainage

pipe.
