- Preparation Check that each tube(both liquid and gas side tubes) between the indoor and outdoor units have been properly connected and all wiring for the test run has been completed. Remove the service valve caps from both the gas and the liquid side on the outdoor unit. Note that both the liquid and the gas side service valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at this stage.

- Leak test Connect the manifold valve(with pressure gauges) and dry nitrogen gas cylinder to this service port with charge hoses.

Leak testing with vacuum pump

CAUTION

Be sure to use a manifold valve for air purging. If it is not available, use a stop valve for this purpose. The knob of the 3-way valve must always be kept close.

- Pressurize the system to maximum 250 P.S.I.G. (17.6 kgf/cm

G) (R-22 model) or 400 P.S.I.G. (28.1 kgf/cm2G) (R-410A model) with dry nitrogen gas and close the cylinder valve when the gauge reading reaches 250 P.S.I.G. (17.6 kgf/cm2G) (R-22 model) or 400 P.S.I.G. (28.1 kgf/cm2G) (R-410A model). Next step is leak test with liquid soap.

CAUTION

To avoid nitrogen entering the refrigerant system in a liquid state, the top of the cylinder must be higher than its bottom when you pressurize the system. Usually, the cylinder is used in a vertical standing position.

WARNING

There is a risk of fire and explosion.

Inert gas (nitrogen) should be used when you check plumbing leaks, cleaning or repairs of pipes etc. If you are using combustible gases including oxygen, product may have the risk of fires and explosions.

In cases where the outdoor unit is installed above the Indoor unit perform the following.

1 Tape the piping and connecting cable from

down to up.

2 Secure the taped piping along the exterior

wall. Form a trap to prevent water entering the room.

3 Fix the piping onto the wall using saddle or

equivalent

Leak testing

The air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system have undesirable effects as indicated below.

- Pressure in the system rises.

- Operating current rises.

- Cooling(or heating) efficiency drops.

- Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and block capillary tubing.

- Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigeration system.

Therefore, after evacuating the system, take a leak test for the piping and tubing between the indoor and outdoor unit.

Seal a small opening around the pipings with gum type sealant.

Trap

ENGLISH

- Do a leak test of all joints of the tubing(both indoor and outdoor) and both gas and liquid side service valves. Bubbles indicate a leak. Be sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.

- After the system is found to be free of leaks, relieve the nitrogen pressure by loosening the charge hose connector at the nitrogen cylinder. When the system pressure is reduced to normal, disconnect the hose from the cylinder.

*The feature can be changed according a type

of model.

- Remove the caps from the 2-way and 3-way valves.

- Remove the service-port cap from the 3-way valve.

- Apply a soap water or a liquid neutral detergent on the indoor unit connection or outdoor unit connections by a soft brush to check for leakage of the connecting points of the piping.

- If bubbles come out, the pipes have leakage

Soap water method

- Connect the charge hose end described in the preceding steps to the vacuum pump to evacuate the tubing and indoor unit. Confirm the "Lo" knob of the pressure Gauge is open. Then, run the vacuum pump. The operation time for evacuation varies with tubing length and capacity of the pump. The following table shows the time required for Evacuation.

- When the desired vacuum is reached, close the knob of the 3-way valve and stop the vacuum pump.

This is performed when the unit is relocated or the refrigerant circuit is serviced. Pump Down means collecting all refrigerant into the outdoor unit without the loss of refrigerant.

- Connect a low-pressure gauge manifold hose to the charge port on the gas side service valve.

- Open the gas side service valve halfway and purge the air in the manifold hose using the refrigerant.

- Close the liquid side service valve(all the way).

- Turn on the unit's operating switch and start the cooling operation.

- When the low-pressure gauge reading becomes 1 to 0.5kg/cm

G(14.2 to 7.1 P.S.I.G.), fully close the gas side valve and then quickly turn off the unit. Now Pump Down procedure is completed, and all refrigerant is collected into the outdoor unit.

CAUTION

Be sure to perform Pump Down procedure in the cooling mode.

If they outdoor equipment must be installed on the coastal side of a building, direct exposure to coastal winds should be avoided.

If system is to be installed in coastal area, windbreak should be installed to protect against excess winds, sand and salt.

Select an area with adequate drainage.

- Material such as concrete should be considered to withstand strong coastal winds.

- The height and width should be more than 150% of the outdoor unit.

- More than 2ft of space should be kept between the windbreak and outdoor unit to ensure proper airflow.

Coastal installation guidelines

CAUTION

- Air conditioners should not be installed in areas where corrosive gases, such as acid or alkaline gas, are produced.

- Do not install the product where it could be exposed to sea wind (salty wind) directly. It can result corrosion on the product. Corrosion, particularly on the condenser and evaporator fins, could cause product malfunction or inefficient performance.

• Evitez un refroidissement excessif des unités intérieures. Une telle application pourrait représenter un danger pour votre santé et entraîner une plus grande consommation de courant.

• Evitez d'exposer le climatiseur aux rayons solaires à l’aide des rideaux ou des persiennes lorsqu’il est en marche.

• Maintenez les portes et les fenêtres complètement fermées lorsque vous utilisez le climatiseur.

• Ajustez le sens du débit d’air verticalement ou horizontalement pour permettre la circulation de l’air intérieur.

• Accélérez le ventilateur pour refroidir ou réchauffer rapidement l’air intérieur en peu de temps.

• Ouvrez régulièrement des fenêtres pour des besoins d’aération étant donné que la qualité de l'air intérieur peut se détériorer si vous utilisez le climatiseur pendant plusieurs heures.

• Nettoyez le filtre à air une fois toutes les 2 semaines. La poussière et la saleté qui se sont accumulées à l’intérieur du filtre à air peuvent empêcher la circulation de l’air ou réduire les fonctions de refroidissement / déshumidification.
