Gas leak inspection
Use a leak detector manufactured specially for HFC refrigerant
(R32, R410A, R134a, etc.) to perform the R32 gas leak inspection.
* Leak detectors for conventional HCFC refrigerant (R22, etc.)
cannot be used, as the sensitivity drops to approximately 1/40
when used for HFC refrigerant.
• R32 has a high working pressure, so failure to perform the installation
work properly may result in gas leaks such as when the pressure rises
during operation. Be sure to perform leak tests on the piping
connections.
