1. PREFACE

This

SERVICE MANUAL provides various service information, including the mechanical and electrical

parts etc. This room air conditioner was manufactured and assembled under a strict quality control system. The refrigerant is charged at the factory. Be sure to read the safety precautions prior to servicing the unit.

1.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. When servicing the unit, set the ROTARY SWITCH or POWER SWITCH to OFF and unplug the power cord.

2. Observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit.

3. After servicing the unit, make an insulation resistance test to protect the customer from being exposed to shock hazards.

1.2

INSULATION RESISTANCE TEST

1. Unplug the power cord and connect a jumper between 2 pins (black and white).

2. The grounding conductor (green) is to be open.

3. Measure the resistance value with an ohm meter between the jumpered lead and each exposed metallic part on the equipment at all the positions (except OFF) of the ROTARY SWITCH.

4. The value should be over 1MΩ.

2.4.2 EVAPORATOR

1. Remove the cabinet. (Refer to section 2.1.2)

2. Remove the 2 screws which fasten the evaporator.

3. Move the evaporator sideways carefully. (Refer to section 2.2.1)

4. After discharging the refrigerant completely, unbraze the interconnecting tube at the evaporator connections.

5. Remove the evaporator.

6. Re-install the component by referring to notes. (See Figure 17)

2.4.3 CAPILLARY TUBE

1. Remove the cabinet. (Refer to section 2.1.2)

2. After discharging the refrigerant completely, unbraze the interconnecting tube at the capillary tube.(See caution above)

NOTES

— Replacement of the refrigeration cycle.

1. When replacing the refrigeration cycle, be sure to Discharge the refrigerant system using a Freon recovery System. If there is no valve to attach the recovery system, install one (such as a WATCO A-1) before venting the FreonTM. Leave the valve in place after servicing the system.

2. After discharging the unit completely, remove the desired component, and unbraze the pinch-off tubes.

3. Solder service valves into the pinch-off tube ports, leaving the valves open.

4. Solder the pinch-off tubes with Service valves.

5. Evacuate as follows.

1) Connect the vacuum pump, as illustrated figure

18A.

2) Start the vacuum pump, slowly open manifold

valves A and B with two full turns counterclockwise and leave the valves open. The vacuum pump is now pulling through valves A and B up to valve C by means of the manifold

and entire system.

CAUTION

If high vacuum equipment is used, just crack valves A and B for a few minutes, then open slowly with the two full turns counterclockwise. This will keep oil from foaming and being drawn into the vacuum pump.

3) Operate the vacuum pump for 20 to 30 minutes,

until 600 microns of vaccum is obtained. Close valves A and B, and observe vacuum gauge for a few minutes. A rise in pressure would indicate a possible leak or moisture remaining in the system. With valves A and B closed, stop

the vacuum pump.

4) Remove the hose from the vacuum pump and

place it on the charging cylinder. See figure 18B. Open valve C. Discharge the line at the manifold connection.

5) The system is now ready for final charging.

TM

3. Remove the capillary tube.

4. Re-install the component by referring to notes.

6. Recharge as follows :

1) Refrigeration cycle systems are charged from the High-side. If the total charge cannot be put in the High-side, the balance will be put in the suction line through the access valve which you installed as the system was opened.

2) Connect the charging cylinder as shown in figure 18B. With valve C open, discharge the hose at the manifold connection.

3) Open valve A and allow the proper charge to enter the system. Valve B is still closed.

4) If more charge is required, the high-side will not take it. Close valve A.

5) With the unit running, open valve B and add the balance of the charge.

a. Do not add the liquid refrigerant to the Low-

side.

b. Watch the Low-side gauge; allow pressure to

rise to 30 lbs. c. Turn off valve B and allow pressure to drop. d. Repeat steps b. and c. until the balance of the

charge is in the system.

6) When satisfied the unit is operating correctly, use the pinch-off tool with the unit still running and clamp on to the pinch-off tube. Using a tube cutter, cut the pinch-off tube about 2 inches from the pinch-off tool. Use sil-fos solder and solder pinch-off tube closed. Turn off the unit, allow it to set for a while, and then test the leakage of the pinch-off connection.
