If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide of your application for more information.

NOTICE

Make sure refrigerant piping installation complies with applicable legislation. In Europe, EN378 is the applicable standard.

NOTICE

Make sure the field piping and connections are NOT subjected to stress.

WARNING

During tests, NEVER pressurize the product with a pressure higher than the maximum allowable pressure (as indicated on the nameplate of the unit).

2 | General safety precautions

WARNING

Take sufficient precautions in case of refrigerant leakage. If refrigerant gas leaks, ventilate the area immediately. Possible risks:

▪ Excessive refrigerant concentrations in a closed room can lead to oxygen

deficiency.

▪ Toxic gas might be produced if refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire.

DANGER: RISK OF EXPLOSION

Pump down – Refrigerant leakage. If you want to pump down the system, and there

is a leak in the refrigerant circuit:

▪ Do NOT use the unit's automatic pump down function, with which you can collect

all refrigerant from the system into the outdoor unit. Possible consequence: Selfcombustion and explosion of the compressor because of air going into the operating compressor.

▪ Use a separate recovery system so that the unit's compressor does NOT have to

operate.

WARNING

ALWAYS recover the refrigerant. Do NOT release them directly into the environment. Use a vacuum pump to evacuate the installation.

2MXM68+3(A)MXM+3(A)MXF+4MXM+5MXM R32 Split series 4P600463-1C – 2020.08

NOTICE

After all the piping has been connected, make sure there is no gas leak. Use nitrogen to perform a gas leak detection.

NOTICE

▪ To avoid compressor breakdown, do NOT charge more than the specified amount

of refrigerant.

▪ When the refrigerant system is to be opened, refrigerant MUST be treated

according to the applicable legislation.

Installer reference guide

2 | General safety precautions

▪ In case recharge is required, see the nameplate of the unit. It states the type of

refrigerant and necessary amount.

▪ The unit is factory charged with refrigerant and depending on pipe sizes and pipe

lengths some systems require additional charging of refrigerant.

▪ Only use tools exclusively for the refrigerant type used in the system, this to

ensure pressure resistance and prevent foreign materials from entering into the system.

CAUTION

▪ When connecting the power supply: connect the earth cable first, before making

the current-carrying connections.

▪ When disconnecting the power supply: disconnect the current-carrying cables

first, before separating the earth connection.

▪ The length of the conductors between the power supply stress relief and the

terminal block itself must be as such that the current-carrying wires are tautened before the earth wire is in case the power supply is pulled loose from the stress relief.

NOTICE

Precautions when laying power wiring:

▪ Do NOT connect wiring of different thicknesses to the power terminal block (slack

in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat).

▪ When connecting wiring which is the same thickness, do as shown in the figure

above.

▪ For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect firmly, then secure to

prevent outside pressure being exerted on the terminal board.

▪ Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the terminal screws. A screwdriver

with a small head will damage the head and make proper tightening impossible.

▪ Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.

7.3.3 To check for leaks

7 | Piping installation

NOTICE

Use this vacuum pump for R32 exclusively. Using the same pump for other refrigerants may damage the pump and the unit.

NOTICE

▪ Connect the vacuum pump to the service port of the gas stop valve. ▪ Make sure that the gas stop valve and liquid stop valve are firmly closed before

performing the leak test or vacuum drying.

NOTICE

Do NOT exceed the unit's maximum working pressure (see "PS High" on the unit name plate).

NOTICE

ALWAYS use a recommended bubble test solution from your wholesaler.

NEVER use soap water:

▪ Soap water may cause cracking of components, such as flare nuts or stop valve

caps.

▪ Soap water may contain salt, which absorbs moisture that will freeze when the

piping gets cold.

▪ Soap water contains ammonia which may lead to corrosion of flared joints

(between the brass flare nut and the copper flare).

1 Charge the system with nitrogen gas up to a gauge pressure of at least

200kPa (2bar). It is recommended to pressurize to 3000kPa (30bar) in order to detect small leaks.

2 Check for leaks by applying the bubble test solution to all connections.

3 Discharge all nitrogen gas.

1hour, do the following:

▪ Check for leaks again. ▪ Perform vacuum drying again.

NOTICE

Be sure to open the gas stop valve after piping installation and vacuuming. Running the system with the valve closed, the compressor may break down.

INFORMATION

After opening the stop valve, it is possible that the pressure in the refrigerant piping does NOT increase. This might be caused by e.g. the closed state of the expansion valve in the outdoor unit circuit, but does NOT present any problem for correct operation of the unit.

8.6 To charge additional refrigerant

WARNING

▪ Only use R32 as refrigerant. Other substances may cause explosions and

accidents.

▪ R32 contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. Its global warming potential (GWP)

value is 675. Do NOT vent these gases into the atmosphere.

▪ When charging refrigerant, ALWAYS use protective gloves and safety glasses.

CAUTION

To avoid compressor breakdown, do NOT charge more than the specified amount of refrigerant.

Prerequisite: Before charging refrigerant, make sure the refrigerant piping is connected and checked (leak test and vacuum drying).

1 Connect the refrigerant cylinder to the service port.

2 Charge the additional refrigerant amount.

3 Open the gas stop valve.

8.7 To fix the fluorinated greenhouse gases label

1 Fill in the label as follows:

a If a multilingual fluorinated greenhouse gases label is delivered with the unit (see accessories), peel off the

applicable language and stick it on top of a. b Factory refrigerant charge: see unit name plate c Additional refrigerant amount charged d Total refrigerant charge e Quantity of fluorinated greenhouse gases of the total refrigerant charge expressed as tonnes CO

equivalent.

f GWP = Global warming potential

NOTICE

Applicable legislation on fluorinated greenhouse gases requires that the refrigerant charge of the unit is indicated both in weight and CO2 equivalent.

Formula to calculate the quantity in CO2 equivalent tonnes: GWP value of the refrigerant × total refrigerant charge [in kg] / 1000

Use the GWP value mentioned on the refrigerant charge label.

2 Fix the label on the inside of the outdoor unit near the gas and liquid stop

valves.
