Only mechanical joints (e.g. braze+flare connections) that arecompliant with the latest version of ISO14903 can be used.NOTICEThe piping and other pressure-containing parts shall be suitable for refrigerant. Usephosphoric acid deoxidised seamless copper for refrigerant.▪ Foreign materials inside pipes (including oils for fabrication) must be≤30 mg/10 m.Refrigerant piping diameterFor piping connections of the indoor unit, use the following piping diameters:Class Pipe outer diameter (mm)Liquid pipe Gas pipe50+71 Ø6.4 Ø12.7100 Ø9.5 Ø15.9Refrigerant piping material▪ Piping material: Phosphoric acid deoxidised seamless copper.▪ Flare connections: Only use annealed material.▪ Piping temper grade and thickness:
