2.2.2.2 Purging process
• Before installing the piping to the flare nut, purging is necessary.

• Purging removes foreign particles from the inside of pipes by means of


gas pressure.

• It is advisable to purge the refrigerant piping with nitrogen gas.

Step 1 Step 2
(70psi)

Close the pipe end with the palm of the hand.


- When the pressure becomes high, move the hand quickly (1st purging).
- Close the pipe end with the palm of the hand again. (Conduct the 2nd purging).

2.2.2.2 Brazing process

Brazing: In the event if brazing is required between field piping;


N2 replacement method is to supply low pressure N2 gas continuously during brazing of
the copper pipes. This is to prevent formation of oxidation bubbles inside the copper pipe
during brazing. This is a standard work practice for all brazing work!

Nitrogen gas pressure is about 0.02MPa (0.2Kg/cm2 or 2.8psi)

Remark: Do not conduct brazing by supplying other gas such as oxygen and etc

The temperature is not


high enough. The

time, the more

After brazing the connection joint, purging is necessary for;


• Removal of leftover brazing residues formed inside the copper pipes when N2
replacement is insufficient during brazing works.
• Removal of extraneous material & moisture from pipes

• First, determine the equivalent piping length by taking into consideration


L joint and trap bend.

Example:
FTV25AXV14 & RV25AXV14 with 19.0m piping length, is installed with 4 L-joint and
1 trap bend.
Equivalent liquid piping length = 19.0m + (4 x 0.18)m + (1 x 1.3)m = 21.02 m

Note : FTV25AXV14 & RV25AXV14 has a gas pipe size of 9.52 mm

2.2.2.9 Charging
For charging R32, following equipment is required:

• Necessary caution marks

Flammable gas Gas under pressure No smoking Wear gloves Wear eye
protection

• Leak detector for R32

• Manifold for R32

• Weighing Scale

• Ventilation if working inside

Remark: Practice by other Daikin affiliates Page 90

2. Installation
 Leak detector must be permanently ON to indicate the presence of the gas and
alert when LFL (lowest flammable limit) is reached to give the installer the
chance to act.

Remark: Leak detector is not considered liable after some time. Also, leak detector should be placed
on the ground because this is were R32 will accumulate.

Under ASHRAE 34 and draft ISO 817, R32 is a slightly flammable gas

Page 91
TOP SECRET DAIKIN
SECRET
INTERNAL USE
PUBLIC
2. Installation
• Before starting the charging, the hoses from the manifold must be vacuumed to
prevent moisture or non-condensables from entering the unit.

• To make sure the correct amount of R32 is charged, a weighing scale is required.
F-gas regulation: for all
refrigerants, a logging should
be done. We need to indicate
how much refrigerant we
removed from the cylinder
and in which unit it was
charged.

• Provide sufficient space for ventilation purpose.


Page 92
TOP SECRET DAIKIN
SECRET
INTERNAL USE

2. Installation
• Additional charge is topped-up into the outdoor unit using the suction
valve via the service port.
• It is recommended to charge the refrigerant by weight.

• The refrigerant is pre-charge in the outdoor unit. If the piping length is


less than 7.5m, then additional charge after vacuuming is not necessary.
If the piping length is more than 7.5m then use the additional charge
value as indicated in the table.

Example: FTV25AXV14 & RV25AXV14 with 10.5m piping length, additional


piping length is 3.0m. Thus,

Additional charge = 3.0[m] x 17[g/m]


= 51 [g]

Step 1: Remove the service port cap.

Step 2: Connect low pressure side of charging gauge to the suction


service port and close the high pressure side of the gauge.

Step 3: Start the air conditioner unit.

Step 4: Open the gas cylinder and low pressure charging valve.

Step 5: When the required refrigerant quantity is pumped into the unit, close
the low pressure side and the gas cylinder valve.

Step 6: Disconnect the service hose from service port. Put back the service
port cap.

• As for R32, it can be charge either in gas form or liquid form as R32 comes
from one component property.

2.2.2.10 Piping Insulation

• Both gas and liquid pipe must be insulated.

• It will be necessary to increase the thickness of the insulation if the

2.2.2.11 Leak Test

Leak detection methods:

• Check by leak detector -------------Indication when there is a minor leak


• Check by listening ------------- Listen attentively for major leaks.
• Check by touching ------------- Touch pipe joints to check for major leaks.
• Check with soap water ------- Apply soap water on pipes. Leaks will cause
soap water to form bubbles.

• However, the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the


chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work.

• If a leak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/extinguished.


Ensure place is well ventilated.
• If a leakage of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerant
shall be recovered from the system, or isolated in a part of the system remote
from the leak.
