6 Charging refrigerant
5.3.2
To perform vacuum drying
DANGER: RISK OF EXPLOSION
Do NOT open the stop valves before the vacuum drying is
finished.
1 Vacuum the system until the pressure on the manifold indicates
−0.1 MPa (−1 bar).
2 Leave as is for 4-5 minutes and check the pressure:
If the pressure...
Does not change
Increases
3 Vacuum the system for at least 2 hours to a manifold pressure
of −0.1 MPa (−1 bar).
4 After turning the pump OFF, check the pressure for at least
1 hour.
5 If you do NOT reach the target vacuum or CANNOT maintain
the vacuum for 1 hour, do the following:
▪ Check for leaks again.
▪ Perform vacuum drying again.
NOTICE
Make sure to open the stop valves after installing the
refrigerant piping and performing vacuum drying. Running
the system with the stop valves closed may break the
compressor.

About the refrigerant
This product contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Do NOT vent
gases into the atmosphere.
Refrigerant type: R32
Global warming potential (GWP) value: 675
Periodical inspections for refrigerant leaks may be required
depending on the applicable legislation. Contact your installer for
more information.
WARNING: MILDLY FLAMMABLE MATERIAL
The refrigerant inside this unit is mildly flammable.
WARNING
▪ The refrigerant inside the unit is mildly flammable, but
normally does NOT leak. If the refrigerant leaks in the
room and comes in contact with fire from a burner, a
heater, or a cooker, this may result in fire, or the
formation of a harmful gas.
▪ Turn OFF any combustible heating devices, ventilate
the room, and contact the dealer where you purchased
the unit.
▪ Do NOT use the unit until a service person confirms
that the part from which the refrigerant leaked has been
repaired.

Then...
There is no moisture in the
system. This procedure is
finished.
There is moisture in the
system. Go to the next step.
WARNING
The appliance shall be stored so as to prevent mechanical
damage and in a well-ventilated room without continuously
operating ignition sources (e.g. open flames, an operating
gas appliance, or an operating electric heater). The room
size shall be as specified in the General safety precaution.
WARNING
▪ Do NOT pierce or burn refrigerant cycle parts.
▪ Do NOT use cleaning materials or means to accelerate
the defrosting process other than those recommended
by the manufacturer.
▪ Be aware that the refrigerant inside the system is
odourless.
WARNING
NEVER directly touch any accidental leaking refrigerant.
This could result in severe wounds caused by frostbite.
6.2
To determine the additional
refrigerant amount
If the total liquid
piping length is...
≤10 m
Do NOT add additional refrigerant.
>10 m
R=(total length (m) of liquid
piping – 1 0 m)×0.020
R=Additional charge (kg) (rounded in units
of 0.01 kg)
INFORMATION
Piping length is the one-way length of liquid piping.
6.3
To determine the complete
recharge amount
INFORMATION
If a complete recharge is necessary, the total refrigerant
charge is: the factory refrigerant charge (see unit name
plate) + the determined additional amount.
6.4
To charge additional refrigerant
WARNING
▪ Only use R32 as refrigerant. Other substances may
cause explosions and accidents.
▪ R32 contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Its global
warming potential (GWP) value is 675. Do NOT vent
these gases into the atmosphere.
▪ When charging refrigerant, ALWAYS use protective
gloves and safety glasses.
Prerequisite: Before charging refrigerant, make sure the refrigerant
piping is connected and checked (leak test and vacuum drying).
1 Connect the refrigerant cylinder to the service port.
2 Charge the additional refrigerant amount.
3 Open the gas stop valve.
6.5
To check refrigerant piping joints
for leaks after charging refrigerant
1 Perform the leak tests see
piping" [ 4 11].
