Installation SiUS39-506
32 General Information
Heat Recovery
Series
Suction, Discharge Gas piping, liquid piping must be insulated.
Example of thermal insulation work.
If you think the humidity around the cooling piping might exceed 86°F and RH80%, reinforce the
insulation on the cooling piping (at least 13/16" thick). Condensation might from on the surface
of the insulation.
3.2.5 Air Tight Test
Operational steps
Essential Points
of Testing
(Maintaining
Pressure Over a
Period)
The key to successful testing is strict adherence to the following procedure:
a) The liquid and gas piping in each refrigerant system should be pressurized in turn in accordance
with the following steps. (Nitrogen gas must be used.)
Increasing the system pressure to 551psi does not guarantee the identification of minor leaks if
pressure is maintained for only a short time. It is therefore recommended that the system remain
pressurized in accordance with Step 3 above for at least 24 hours.
Note: The pressure must on no account be increased beyond 551psi.
b) Check for pressure drop
If there is no drop in pressure then the test is deemed a success.
If the pressure drops then the leak must be located. See following page.
However, if there is a change in the ambient temperature between the pressurizing stage and
the time when you check for a drop in pressure then you will have to adjust your calculations
accordingly since a change of 1°F can account for a pressure change of approximately 0.80psi.
Compensating adjustment value:
(temperature at time of pressurizing – temperature at time of checking) × 0.80
Example:
Time of pressurizing: 551psi 77°F
3 piping section (between outdoor unit and BS unit)
2 piping section (between BS unit and indoor unit)

(V0987)
Step 1: increase pressure to 13.05psi for 3
minutes or more
Indicates existence of major leaks
Step 2: increase pressure to 217psi for 5
minutes or more
Indicates existence of minor leaks
Step 3: increase pressure to 551psi for
approx. 24 hours
