4.5 Laying suction and pressure lines

A rule of thumb: Always lay the first pipe section starting from the shut-off valve downwards
and parallel to the drive shaft.

ATTENTION Improperly installed pipes can cause cracks and tears, the result

being a loss of refrigerant.

INFO

Proper layout of the suction and discharge lines directly after
the compressor is integral to the system’s smooth running and
vibration behaviour.
