18. REFRIGERANT PIPING &REFRIGERANT CHARGE

18.1 PIPING MATERIALS1 Prepare locally-supplied copper pipes.2 Select the piping size with the correct thickness and correct material which can have suffi cient pressure strength.3 Select clean copper pipes. Make sure there is no dust and moisture inside. Blow the inside of the pipes with oxygen free nitrogen to remove any dust and foreign materials before con- necting pipes.

N O T EA system with no moisture or oil contamination will give maximum performance and lifecycle compared

www.signamax.com MAX Air Data Center Technical Manual | 33

to that of a poorly prepared system. Take particular care to ensure all copper piping is clean and dry internally.There is no refrigerant in the cycle of the indoor unit.

C A U T I O NCap the end of the pipe when pipe is to be inserted through a hole

Do not put pipes on the ground directly without a cap or vinyl tape at the end of the pipe

If piping installation is not completed until next day or over a long- er period of time, braze off the ends of the piping and charge with oxygen free nitrogen through a Schrader valve type access fi tting to prevent moisture and particle contamination.Do not use insulation material that contains NH3 because it can damage cooper pipe material and can be a source of future leak- age.Completely insulate both refrigerant gas piping and liquid piping between the indoor unit(s) and the outdoor unit.If not insulated, dew will ocur on the piping surface

18.2 SUSPENSION OF REFRIGERANT PIPING

Suspend the refrigerant piping at certain points and prevent the refrigerant piping from touching the weak part of the building such as wall, ceiling, etc…(If touched, abnormal sound may occur due to the vibration of the piping. Pay special attention in case of short piping length).

Do not attempt to turn service valve rod beyond its stop.Do not loosen the stop ring. If the stop ring is loosened, it is dan- gerous since the spindle will hop out.An excess or a shortage of refrigerant is the main cause of trouble to the units. Charge the correct refrigerant quantity according to the description of label at the inside of service cover.Check for refrigerant leakage in detail. If a large refrigerant leakage occurs, it will cause diffi culty with breathing or harmful gases would occur if a fi re was being used in the room.

Evacuation and refrigerant charge- Connect the gauge manifold using charginghoses with a vacuum pump or a nitrogen cylinder tothe check joints of the liquid line and the gas line stopvalve.- Check for any gas leakage at the fl are nut connection, by using nitrogen gas to increase the pressure at4.15 MPa for outdoor units inside of the fi eld-suppliedpiping.- Operate the vacuum pump for 1 to 2 hours until thepres- sure decreases lower than a pressure of 756mmHg in vacuum.- For charging refrigerant, connect the gauge manifold us- ing charging hoses with a refrigerant chargingcylinder to the check joint of the liquid line stop valve.- Charge the proper quantity of refrigerant accordingto the piping length (Calculate the quantity of therefrigerant charge).- Fully open the gas line stop valve, and slightly openthe liquid line stop valve.- Charge refrigerant by opening the gauge manifoldvalve.- Charge the required refrigerant within the differencerange of ±0.5kg by operating the system in cooling.- Fully open the liquid line stop valve after completingrefrig- erant charge.- Continue cooling operation for more than 10 minutesto circulate the refrigerant.

18.4 Refrigerant chargeCAUTIONDo not charge OXYGEN, ACETYLENE, or other fl ammable and poisonous gases into the refrigerant because an explosion can occur. It is recommended that oxygen free nitrogen be charged for these types of tests cycle when performing a leakage test or an airtight test. These types of gases are extremely dangerous, Insulate the unions and fl are-nuts at the piping connection part completely.Insulate the liquid piping completely to avoid a decrease of performance;if not, it will cause sweating on the surface of the pipe.Charge refrigerant correctly. Overcharging or insuffi cient charging could cause a compressor failure. Check for refrigerant leakage in detail. If a large refrigerant leakage occurred, it would cause diffi culty with breathing or harmful gases would occur if a fi re were being used in the room.If the fl are nut is tigthened too hard, the fl are nut may crack after a long time and cause refrigerant leakage.

18.5 Caution of the pressure by check joint

When the pressure is measured, use the check joint of gas stop valve (A), and use the check joint of liquid piping (B) in the fi gure below.At that time, connect the pressure gauge according to the following table because of high pressure side and low pressure side changes by operation mode.

NOTEBe careful that refrigerant and oil do not splash to the electrical parts at removing the charge hoses.
