When a single straight pipe type copper pipe is subjected to axial compression by applying a physical force to the large diameter portion of the pipe, a portion where the double pipe is formed by pressurization is very weak as a notch.
In particular, immediately after the system air conditioner is installed, normal cooling is performed without any abnormality. However, since the refrigerant is circulated at a high pressure, a closed end of the pressure joint portion 2b of the
In addition, since the inlet connection pipe and the discharge connection pipe connected to the Y branch pipe are individually welded, there is a serious problem that not only the workability due to assembly is lowered but also normal cooling can not be performed due to leakage of water on the welding portion.
