Refrigerant Piping Thermostat Designations If the 4AC18LT unit is being installed with a new indoor coil and line set, the refrigerant connections should be made as outlined in this section. If an existing line set and/or indoor coil will be used to complete the system, refer to this section as well as the section that follows entitled - Flushing Existing Line Set and Indoor Coil. If this unit is being matched with an approved line set or indoor coil which was previously charged with R-22 refr

6. Braze the line set to the service valve. Quench the joints with water or a wet cloth to prevent heat damage to the CAUTION valve core and opening port. The tube end must stay bottomed in the fitting during final assembly to ensure When flushing existing line set and/or indoor coil, be sure to proper seating, sealing, and rigidity. empty all existing traps. Residual mineral oil can act as an insulator, preventing proper heat transfer. It can also clog 7. Install the thermal expansion v

3. Connect the external equalizer line to the equalizer port Suction Line (Ball Type) Service Valve on the suction line and tighten to 8 ft.lbs. Suction line (ball type) service valves function the same way as the other valves; the difference is in the construction (See 4. Strap the superheat sensing bulb to the suction header. Figure 12).

3. Open the high pressure side of the manifold to allow R410A into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in a trace amount of R410A. (A trace amount is a maximum of 2 oz. of refrigerant or 3 lbs. pressure.) Close the valve on the R410A cylinder and the valve on the high pressure side of the manifold gauge set. Disconnect the R410A cylinder. 4. Connect a cylinder of nitrogen with a pressure regulating valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set. When using high pressure gas such as ni

4. Open both manifold valves and start vacuum pump. 5. Evacuate the line set and indoor unit to a minimum of 500 microns or lower. During the early stages of evacuation, it is desirable to close the manifold gauge valve at least once to determine if there is a rapid rise in pressure. A rapid rise in pressure indicates a relatively large leak. If this occurs, the leak testing procedure must be repeated. 6. When 500 microns or lower is maintained, close the manifold gauge valves, turn off th

Units are factory charged with the amount of R410A START-UP refrigerant indicated on the unit rating plate. This charge is based on a matching indoor coil and outdoor coil with 15’ line set. For varying lengths of line set, refer to Table 5 for CAUTION refrigerant charge adjustment. A blank space is provided If unit is equipped with a crankcase heater, it should be on the unit rating plate to list the actual field charge. energized 24 hours before unit start-up to prevent compressor damage
