WARNING
During tests, NEVER pressurize the product with a pressure higher than the
maximum allowable pressure (as indicated on the nameplate of the unit).
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.
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.
WARNING
Make sure there is no oxygen in the system. Refrigerant may only be charged after
performing the leak test and the vacuum drying.
Possible consequence: Self-combustion and explosion of the compressor because of
oxygen going into the operating compressor.
▪ In case recharge is required, see the nameplate of the unit. It states the type of
refrigerant and necessary amount.
Installer and user reference guide

of the earth leakage protector.
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.

4P600330-1B – 2020.10
3.1.2 System layout requirements
The VRV 5-S uses R32 refrigerant which is rated as A2L and is mildly flammable.
To comply with the requirements of enhanced tightness refrigerating systems of
the IEC 60335-2-40, this system is equipped with shut-off valves in the outdoor
unit and an alarm in the remote controller. In case the requirements of this manual
are followed, no additional safety measures are needed.
A big range of charge and room area combinations is allowed thanks to the
countermeasures that are implemented in the unit by default.
Follow the installation requirements below to ensure that the complete system is
compliant to legislation.
Outdoor unit installation
The outdoor unit has to be installed outside. For indoor installation of the outdoor
unit, additional measures can be necessary to comply with the applicable
legislation.
A terminal for external output is available in the outdoor unit. This SVS output can
be used when additional countermeasures are needed. The SVS output is a contact
on terminal X2M that closes in case a leak is detected, failure or disconnection of
the R32 sensor (located in the indoor unit).
3 | Specific installer safety instructions
For more information about the SVS output, see "20.3 To connect the external
outputs"[4108].
Indoor unit installation
For installation of the indoor unit, refer to the installation and operation manual
delivered with the indoor unit. For compatibility of indoor units refer to the latest
version of the technical data book of this unit.
The total amount of refrigerant in the system shall be less than or equal to the
maximum allowed total refrigerant amount. The maximum allowed total
refrigerant amount depends on the area of the rooms being served by the system
and the rooms in the lowest underground floor.
See "To determine the charge limitations" [4 22] to check if your system meets
the requirement for charge limitation.
An optional output PCB for the indoor unit can be added to provide output for
external device. The output PCB will trigger in case a leak is detected, the R32
sensor fails or when the sensor is disconnected. For exact model name see option
list of the indoor unit. For more information about this option, refer to the
installation manual of the optional output PCB.
Piping requirements
Piping must be installed according to instructions given in "18 Piping
installation"[4 75]. Only mechanical joints (e.g. braze+flare connections) that are
compliant with the latest version of ISO14903 can be used.
RXYSA4~6A7V/Y1B

g iTM (optional)
h Option PCB (optional)
For installation of the remote controller, please refer to the installation and
operation manual delivered with the remote controller. Each indoor unit has to be
connected with a R32 safety system compatible remote controller (e.g.
BRC1H52/82* or later type). These remote controllers have implemented safety
measures that will warn the user visually and audibly in case of a leak.
For installation of the remote controller it is mandatory to follow the requirements.
1Only a safety system compatible remote controller can be used. See technical
data sheet for remote controller compatibility (e.g. BRC1H52/82*).
2Each indoor unit has to be connected to a separate remote controller.
3Even if multiple indoors are in the same room, they should all have a separate
remote controller.
4The remote controller put in the same room as the indoor unit has to be in
fully functional mode or alarm only mode. For details about the different
remote controller modes and how to set up, please check the note below or
refer to the installation and operation manual delivered with the remote
controller.
5Group control is not allowed.
6For buildings where sleeping facilities are offered (e.g. hotel), where persons
are restricted in their movements (e.g. hospitals), an uncontrolled number of
persons is present or buildings where people are not aware of the safety
precautions it is mandatory to install one of the following devices at a location
with 24-hour monitoring:
▪ a supervisor remote controller
▪ or an iTM with external alarm via WAGO module.
Note: The remote controller will generate a visible and audible warning. E.g. the
BRC1H52/82* remote controllers can generate an alarm of 65dB (sound pressure,
measured at 1m distance of the alarm). Sound data is available in the technical
data sheet of the remote controller. The alarm should always be 15dB louder than
the background noise of the room. In case of higher background noise in a certain
room, we recommend to use an external alarm (field supply) in that room. This
alarm can be connected to the SVS output channel of the outdoor unit or to the
optional output PCB of the indoor unit of that specific room.
For more information on the SVS output signal, see "20.2To connect the electrical
wiring to the outdoor unit"[4105].

Alarm onlyThe controller only acts as leak detection alarm (for a
single indoor unit). No functionality is available. The
remote controller should always be put in the same
room as the indoor unit. This controller can be master
or slave.
SupervisorThe controller only acts as leak detection alarm (for
the whole system, i.e. multiple indoor units and their
respective controllers). No other functionality is
available. The remote controller should be placed at a
supervised location. This remote controller can only
be the slave.
Note: In order to add a supervisor remote controller to
the system, a field setting should be set on both
remote controller and outdoor unit.
Note: Incorrect use of remote controllers can result in occurrence of error codes,
non-operating system or system that is not compliant to applicable legislation.
Note: iTM in combination with a WAGO module can also be used as supervisor
remote controller. For further details on installation, please refer to installation
manual of the iTM.

3.1.3 To determine the charge limitations
1Determine the area of the smallest room in order to derive the total
refrigerant charge limit in the system:
The room area can be determined by projecting the walls, doors and
partitions to the floor and calculate the enclosed area. The area of the
smallest room being served by the system is used in the next step to
determine the maximum allowable total charge of the system.
Spaces connected by only false ceilings, ductwork, or similar connections
shall not be considered a single space.
If the partition between 2 rooms on the same floor meets certain
requirements then the rooms are considered as one room and the areas of
the rooms may be added up. In this way it is possible to increase the A
value used to calculate the maximum allowed charge.
One of the following 2 requirements must be met in order to add up room
areas.
1 Rooms on the same floor that are connected with a permanent opening
that extends to the floor and is intended for people to walk through can
be considered as one room.
