4.3.8 Thermal Insulation and Wrapping for Pipeline
(1) For multi VRF system, every copper pipe should be labeled so as to avoid misconnection.
(2) At the branch inlet, leave at least 500mm straight pipe section.
(3) Thermal insulation for pipeline
1) To avoid condensate or water leakage on the connection pipe, the gas pipe and liquid pipe must
be wrapped with thermal insulating material and adhesive tape for insulation from the air.
2) Thermal insulating material shall be able to bear the pipe temperature. For heat pump unit, liquid
pipe should bear 70℃ or above and gas pipe should bear 120℃ or above. For cooling only unit,
both liquid pipe and gas pipe should bear 70℃ or above.
Example: Polyethylene foam (bear 120℃ or above); foaming polyethylene (bear 100℃ or
above)
3) Joints of indoor unit, outdoor unit and hydro box should be wrapped with insulating material and
contact directly with the wall of indoor unit, outdoor unit and hydro box. See Fig.18.
4) Thermal insulating material of branches should be the same as that of the pipeline. The
attached foam of branches cannot be taken as insulating material.
5) When wrapping the tape, the later circle should cover half of the former one. Don't wrap the
tape too tight, otherwise the insulation effect will be weakened.
6) After wrapping the pipe, apply sealing material to completely seal the hole on the wall.
4.3.9 Support and Protection of Pipeline
(1) Support should be made for hanging connection pipe. Distance between each support cannot be
over 1m.
(2) Protection against accidental damage should be made for outdoor pipeline. When pipeline exceeds
1m, a pinch board should be added for protection.
