2 If cutting pipe, refer to the cutting instructions on the next page.
3 Braze the connector pipe (not provided) at the outdoor unit.
4 When connecting the outdoor unit's connector pipe and the EEV KIT pipe, be sure to use a
socket (not provided) that meets the necessary specifications.
5 As the size of the EEV KIT pipe and the outdoor unit's connector pipe could vary, check the
sizes beforehand and use a socket that meets the necessary specifications.
6 When brazing, make sure to follow safety precautions at all times.
7 Be sure to insulate pipe A after welding with insulation (15T or more).

Notes:
Be sure to pass nitrogen through when brazing. Failure to do so could cause the compressor
to not function properly or become damaged.
It is essential that the pipe is wrapped with a wet towel before and after brazing. Failure
to do so could result in equipment damage.
Use a protective panel or be especially cautious not to let welding sparks come in contact
with the AHU panel.
After brazing, be sure to test for leakage.
Failure to properly insulate the pipe after welding may result in leakage.
