Align the centers of both flares and tighten the flare nuts 3 or 4 turns by hand. Then tighten them fullywith the torque wrenches.Refrigerant Piping Work2. Refrigerant piping.2-1. Caution on piping handling.1) Protect the open end of the pipe against dust and moisture.2) All pipe bends should be as gentle as possible. Use a pipe bender for bending.2-2. Selection of copper and heat insulation materials.• When using commercial copper pipes and fittings, observe the following:1) Insulation material: Polyethylene foamHeat transfer rate: 0.041 to 0.052W/mK (0.024-0.030Btu/fth˚F (0.035-0.045kcal/mh˚C))Refrigerant gas pipe’s surface temperature reaches 230˚F (110˚C) max.Choose heat insulation materials that will withstand this temperature.2) Be sure to insulate both the gas and liquid piping and to provideinsulation dimensions as below.3) Use separate thermal insulation pipes for gas and liquid refrigerant pipes.Flare nut tightening torqueGas side Liquid side45.6-55.6ft
