IMPORTANT! When Installing… Please Read Before Starting …In a Room Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating “sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to standards. As the installer or service person, it is an impor- walls and floors.
Check of Density Limit 2. The standards for minimum room volume are as follows. The room in which the air conditioner is to be (1) No partition (shaded portion) installed requires a design that in the event of refrigerant gas leaking out, its density will not exceed a set limit.
Precautions for Installation Using New Refrigerant 1. Care regarding tubing 1-1. Process tubing Material: Use C1220 phosphorous deoxidized copper specified in JIS H3300 “Copper and Copper Alloy Seam- less Pipes and Tubes.” Tubing size: Be sure to use the sizes indicated in the table below. Use a tube cutter when cutting the tubing, and be sure to remove any flash.

3-2. Use R410A exclusive cylinder only. Configuration and characteristics of cylinders When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, use an electronic scale for charging refrigerant. In this Valve case, if the volume of refrigerant in the cylinder becomes less than 20% of the fully-charged amount, the composition of the refrigerant starts to change.

Connecting the Refrigerant Tubing Use of the Flaring Method Many conventional split system air conditioners employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes which run between indoor and outdoor units.
Caution Before Connecting Tubes Tightly (1) Apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape to prevent dust or water from entering the tubes before they are used. Apply refrigerant (2) Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching lubricant here and here surfaces of the flare and union before connecting them together.
Packed valve Do not use a spanner to tighten the valve stem caps. Charging port Doing so may damage the valves. Depending on the installation conditions, applying Valve stem excessive torque may cause the nuts to crack. Precautions for Packed Valve Operation If the packed valve is left for a long time with the valve stem cap removed, refrigerant will leak from the valve.
9-4. Taping the Tubes (1) At this time, the refrigerant tubes (and electrical wiring if local codes permit) should be taped Inter-unit Gas tube together with armoring tape in 1 bundle. To control wiring Liquid tube prevent condensation from overflowing the drain pan, keep the drain hose separate from the refrigerant tubing.
10. LEAK TEST, EVACUATION AND Manifold gauge ADDITIONAL REFRIGERANT CHARGE Perform an air-tightness test for this package A/C. Check that there is no leakage from any of the connections. Air and moisture in the refrigerant system may have undesirable effects as indicated below. pressure in the system rises operating current rises Fig.
(3) Pressurize the system up to 4.15 MPa Manifold valve (42 kgf/cm G) with dry nitrogen gas and close the cylinder valve when the gauge reading reaches Pressure 4.15 MPa (42 kgf/cm G). Then, test for leaks with gauge liquid soap. To avoid nitrogen entering the CAUTION refrigerant system in a liquid...
Manifold valve 10-3. Charging Additional Refrigerant Charging additional refrigerant (calculated from the Pressure liquid tube length as shown on page 14, Amount of gauge additional refrigerant charge) using the liquid tube service valve. (Fig. 10-5) Valve Use a balance to measure the refrigerant accurately. If the additional refrigerant charge amount cannot be charged at once, charge the remaining refrigerant in liquid form by using the gas tube...
11. TEST RUN 11-1. Preparing for Test Run Before attempting to start the air conditioner, check the following: (Power must be turned ON (1) All loose matter is removed from the cabinet at least 5 hours before especially steel filings, bits of wire, and clips. attempting test run) (2) The control wiring is correctly connected and all electrical connections are tight.
I X, T, U, K Type 11-2. Caution This unit may be used in a single-type refrigerant system where 1 outdoor unit is connected to 1 indoor unit. The indoor and outdoor unit control PCBs utilize a semiconductor memory element (EEPROM). The set- tings required for operation were made at the time of shipment.
11-4. Items to Check Before the Test Run (1) Turn the breaker ON at least 12 hours in advance in order to energize the crank case heater. (2) Fully open the closed valves on the liquid tube and gas tube sides. 11-5.

11-8-5. Indicating (marking) the indoor and outdoor unit combination number Indicate (mark) the number after automatic address setting is completed. (1) So that the combination of each indoor unit can be easily checked when multiple units are installed, ensure that the indoor and outdoor unit numbers correspond to the system address number on the outdoor unit control PCB, and use a magic marker or similar means which cannot be easily erased to indicate the numbers in an easily visible location on the indoor units (near the indoor unit nameplates).
