Important Warnings for R410A

  • • POE oil is highly hygroscopic - keep sealed
  • • Never mix with mineral oil
  • • Use dedicated recovery equipment

Oil Return: High velocity in vertical risers required due to high operating pressure

General Oil Guidelines

! Never mix MO (Mineral) and POE oils - causes chemical breakdown
💧 POE absorbs moisture - keep container sealed, minimize air exposure
Check oil level through sight glass after 24 hours of operation

Installation Guidelines

1

Ensure the system is properly evacuated before charging with R410A refrigerant.

2

Use POE oil only. Oil charge: 1050 cc.

3

Breaker size recommendation: 17 A minimum (based on RLA × 1.25).

4

Wire size should be rated for 13 A continuous load at 220-240V/50Hz.
