10Performing leak test & insulation5 Select the insulation of the refrigerant pipe.f Insulate the gas side and liquid side pipe referring to the thickness according to the pipe size.f Indoor temperature of 30°C(86°F) and humidity of 85 % is the standard condition.If installing in a high humidity condition, use one grade thicker insulator by referring to the table below.If installing in an unfavorable conditions, use thicker one.f Insulator’s heat-resistance temperature should be more than 120 °C(248 °F).Pipe Pipe sizeInsulation Type (Heating/Cooling)RemarksGeneral[30°C(86°F), 85%]High humidity[30°C(86°F), over 85%]EPDM, NBRmm inch mm inch mm inchLiquidpipe6.35 ~ 9.52 1/4~3/8 9 3/8 9 3/8Heating resistingtemperature over120°C(248°F)12.7 ~ 19.05 1/2~3/4 13 1/2 13 1/2Gaspipe6.35 1/4 13 1/2 19 3/49.52 3/8 19 3/4 25 112.7 1/2 19 3/4 25 115.88 5/8 19 3/4 25 119.05 3/4 19 3/4 25 1f When installing insulation in places and conditions below, use the same insulation that is used for high humidityconditions.- High humidity places such as shoreline, hot spring, near lake or river, and ridge (when the part of the building iscovered by earth and sand.)- Restaurant ceiling, sauna, swimming pool etc.- The ceiling frequently exposed to moisture and cooling is not covered.e.g. The pipe installed at a corridor of a dormitory and studio or near an exit that opens and closes frequently.- The place where the pipe is installed is highly humid due to the lack of ventilation system.t Install the insulation not to get wider and use the adhesives on the connection part of it to prevent moisture fromentering.t Wind the refrigerant pipe with insulation tape if it is exposed to outside sunlight.t Install the refrigerant pipe respecting that the insulation does not get thinner on the bent part or hanger of pipe.t Add the additional insulation if the insulation plate gets thinner.Additional insulation HangerInsulated refrigerant pipea×3aCAUTION
