1 1 1 1 1 PRECAUTIONS FOR DEVICES THAT USE R407C REFRIGERANT Caution Do not use the existing refrigerant piping. Use a vacuum pump with a reverse flow check valve. • The vacuum pump oil may flow back into the refriger- •...
[1] Storage of Piping Material (1) Storage location Store the pipes to be used indoors. (Warehouse at site or owner’s warehouse) Storing them outdoors may cause dirt, waste, or water to infiltrate. (2) Pipe sealing before storage Both ends of the pipes should be sealed until immediately before brazing. Wrap elbows and T’s in plastic bags for storage.
[2] Piping Machining Use ester oil, ether oil or alkylbenzene (small amount) as the refrigerator oil to coat flares and flange connections. Use only the necessary minimum quantity of oil ! Reason: 1. The refrigerator oil used for the equipment is highly hygroscopic and may introduce water inside. Notes: •...
[3] Necessary Apparatus and Materials and Notes on Their Handling The following tools should be marked as dedicated tools for R407C. <<Comparison of apparatus and materials used for R407C and for R22>> Apparatus Used R407C Gauge manifold Evacuating, refrigerant filling Current product Charging hose Operation check...
[4] Brazing No changes from the conventional method, but special care is required so that foreign matter (ie. oxide scale, water, dirt, etc.) does not enter the refrigerant circuit. Example: Inner state of brazed section When non-oxide brazing was not used When non-oxide brazing was used Items to be strictly observed: 1.
[5] Airtightness Test No changes from the conventional method. Note that a refrigerant leakage detector for R22 cannot detect R407C leakage. Halide torch R22 leakage detector Items to be strictly observed: 1. Pressurize the equipment with nitrogen up to the design pressure and then judge the equipment’s airtightness, taking temperature variations into account.
[7] Charging of Refrigerant R407C must be in a liquid state when charging, because it is a non-azeotropic refrigerant.
