ENGLISH
CAUTION
• The wall thickness of the piping should comply with the relevant local and national regula­tions for the designed pressure 3.8Mpa(551.1psi).
• Since R410A is a mixed refrigerant, the required additional refrigerant must be charged in its liquid state. If the refrigerant is charged in its gaseous state, its composition changes and the system will not work properly.
• Do not place the refrigerant container under the direct rays of the sun to prevent it from exploding.
• For high-pressure refrigerant, any unapproved pipe must not be used.
• Do not heat pipes more than necessary to prevent them from softening.
• Be careful not to install wrongly to minimize economic loss because it is expensive in comparison with R22.
The refrigerant R410A has the property of higher operating pressure in comparison with R22. Therefore, all materials have the characteristics of higher resisting pressure than R22 ones and this characteristic should be also considered during the installation. R410A is an azeotrope of R32 and R125 mixed at 50:50, so the ozone depletion potential (ODP) of R410A is 0.

INSTALLATION
ENGLISH
Main cause of gas leakage is defect in flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work in the following procedure.
Cut the pipes and the cable
- Use the accessory piping kit or the pipes pur­chased locally.
- Measure the distance between the indoor and the outdoor unit.
- Cut the pipes a little longer than measured distance.
- Cut the cable 1.5m(4.92ft) longer than the pipe length.
Burrs removal
- Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section of pipe/tube.
- Put the end of the copper tube/pipe to down­ward direction as you remove burrs in order to avoid to let burrs drop in the tubing.
Flaring work
- Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown below.
Firmly hold copper tube in a bar(or die) as in­dicated dimension in the table above.
Check
- Compare the flared work with figure below.
- If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared section and do flaring work again.

Precautions when connecting pipes
- See the following table for flare part machining dimensions.
- When connecting the flare nuts, apply refrigerant oil to the inside and outside of the flares and turn them three or four times at first. (Use ester oil or ether oil.)
-
See the following table for tightening torque.(Applying too much torque may cause the flares to crack.)
- After all the piping has been connected, use nitrogen to perform a gas leak check.
1 Remove the cap and turn the valve counter clockwise with the hexagon wrench.
2 Turn it until the shaft stops.
Do not apply excessive force to the shutoff valve. Doing so may break the valve body, as the valve is not a backseat type. Always use the special tool.
3 Make sure to tighten the cap securely.

CAUTION
• Always use a charge hose for service port connection.
• After tightening the cap, check that no refrigerant leaks are present.
• When loosening a flare nut, always use two wrenches in combination, When connecting the piping, always use a spanner and torque wrench in combination to tighten the flare nut.
• When connecting a flare nut, coat the flare(inner and outer faces) with oil for R410A(PVE) and hand tighten the nut 3 to 4 turns as the initial tightening.

Precautions in high humidity circumstance: This air conditioner has been tested according to the "ISO Conditions with Mist" and confirmed that there is not any default. However, if it is operated for a long time in high humid atmosphere (dew point temperature: more than 73.4°F), water drops are liable to fall. In this case, add heat insulation material according to the fol­lowing procedure:
- Heat insulation material to be prepared... EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Meth­ylene)-over 248°F the heat-resistance temperature.
- Add the insulation over 10mm(0.39 inch) thickness at high humidity environment.
Closing shutoff valve
1 Remove the cap and turn the valve clockwise with the hexagon wrench.
2 Securely tighten the valve until the shaft contacts the main body seal.

Plumbing materials and storage methods
Pipe must be able to obtain the specified thickness and should be used with low impurities. Also when handling storage, pipe must be careful to prevent a fracture, deformity and wound. Should not be mixed with contaminations such as dust, moisture.
Refrigerant piping on three principles
Drying Cleanliness Airtight
Should be no moisture inside No dust inside.
There is no refrigerant leak-

Nitrogen substitution method
Welding, as when heating without nitrogen substitution a large amount of the oxide film is formed on the internal piping.
The oxide film is a caused by clogging EEV, Capillary, oil hole of accumulator and suction hole of oil pump in compressor.
It prevents normal operation of the compressor. In order to avoid this problem, Welding should be done after replacing air by nitrogen gas. When welding plumbing pipe, the work is required.
1 Always use the nitrogen.(not use oxygen, carbon dioxide, and a Chevron gas):
Please use the following nitrogen pressure 0.02Mpa(2.9psi) Oxygen – Promotes oxidative degradation of refrigerant oil. Because it is flammable, it is strictly prohibited to use Carbon dioxide – Degrade the drying characteristics of gas Chevron Gas – Toxic gas occurs when exposed to direct flame.
2 Always use a pressure reducing valve.
3. Please do not use commercially available antioxidant. The residual material seems to be the oxide scale is observed. In fact, due to the organic acids generated by oxidation of the alcohol contained in the anti­oxidants, ants nest corrosion occurs. (causes of organic acid  alcohol + copper + water + temperature)

Precautions on Pipe connection / Valve operation
Pipe connection is done by connecting from the end of the pipe to the branching pipes, and the refrigerant pipe coming out of the outdoor unit is divided at the end to connect to each indoor unit. Flare connection for the indoor unit, and welding connection for the outdoor pipe and the branching parts.
- Use hexagonal wrench to open/close the valve.
CAUTION
Please block the pipe knock outs of the front and side panels after installing the pipes. (Animals or foreign objects may be brought in to damage wires.)
!
WARNING
• Always careful not to leak the refrigerant during welding.
• The refrigerant generates poisonous gas harmful to human body if combusted.
• Do not perform welding in a closed space.
• Be sure to close the cap of the service port to prevent gas leakage after the work.

WARNING
• In case of pipe diameter B connected after first branch is bigger than the main pipe diame­ter A, B should be of the same size with A.
Ex)
In case indoor unit combination ratio ratio 130% is connected to 24HP(70kW) outdoor unit.
1) Outdoor unit main pipe diameter A : Ø34.9(1-3/8, gas pipe), Ø15.88(5/8, liquid pipe)
2) Pipe diameter B after first branch according to 130% indoor unit combination(91kW) : Ø34.9(1-3/8, gas pipe), Ø19.05(3/4, liquid pipe) Therefore, pipe diameter B connected after first branch would be Ø34.9(1-3/8, gas pipe) / Ø15.88(5/8, liquid pipe) which is same with main pipe diameter.
[Example] Instead of using indoor unit total capacity, use outdoor unit model name in order to choose main pipe diameter by downward. Do not let the connection pipe from branch to branch exceed the main pipe diameter chosen by outdoor unit model name. EX) Where connecting the indoor units to the 24HP(70kW) outdoor unit to 130% of its sys-
tem capacity (91kW) and branching 7k Btu/h(2.2kW) indoor unit at the 1st branch Main pipe diameter (24HP outdoor unit) outdoor unit): Ø28.58(1-1/8, Gas pipe) Ø15.88(5/8, Liquid pipe) Pipe diameter between 1st and 2nd branch (88.5kW indoor units) : Ø34.9(1-3/8, Gas pipe) Ø19.05(3/4, Liquid pipe) in conformity with downward indoor units. Since the main pipe diameter of 24HP(20Ton) outdoor unit is Ø28.58(1-1/8, Gas pipe) and Ø15.88(5/8, Liquid pipe), Ø28.58 (1-1/8, Gas pipe) and Ø15.88(5/8, Liquid pipe) is used as the main pipe and the connection pipe between 1st and 2nd branch.

Pipe Connection Method/Precautions for Series connections between Outdoor units
- Separate Y branch joints are needed for series connections between outdoor units.
- Please refer to the below connection examples to install pipe connections between outdoor units.
- If the distance between the outdoor units becomes more than 2m, apply Oil Traps between the gas pipes.
- If the outdoor unit is located lower than the main pipe, apply Oil Trap.
Pipe connection between outdoor units (General Case)
The maximum pipe length after the first branching between the outdoor units is 10m(33ft) or less
Pipes between outdoor units are 2m(6.6ft)
or less
Examples of Wrong Pipe Connections
2m(6.6ft) or less

If the main pipe is higher than the outdoor units, oil is accumulated in the outdoor unit.
If there are differences in the height between the outdoor units, oil is accumulated in the lower outdoor unit.

The amount of Refrigerant
The calculation of the additional charge should take into account the length of pipe and CF(correc­tion Factor) value of indoor unit.
Additional charge(kg) = Total liquid pipe : Ø25.4 mm (1.0 inch) x
0.480 kg/m (0.323 lbs/ft)
+ Total liquid pipe : Ø22.2 mm (7/8 inch) x
0.354 kg/m (0.238 lbs/ft)
+ Total liquid pipe : Ø19.05 mm (3/4 inch) x
0.266 kg/m (0.179 lbs/ft)
+ Total liquid pipe : Ø15.88 mm (5/8 inch) x
0.173 kg/m (0.116 lbs/ft)
+ Total liquid pipe : Ø12.7 mm (1/2inch) x
0.118 kg/m (0.079 lbs/ft)
+ Total liquid pipe : Ø9.52 mm (3/8inch) x
0.061 kg/m (0.041 lbs/ft)
+ Total liquid pipe : Ø6.35 mm (1/4 inch) x
0.022 kg/m (0.015 lbs/ft)
+ CF value of indoor unit
Amount refrigerant of Indoor units Example) 4Way Ceiling Cassette 14.5kW -1ea, Ceiling concealed Duct 7.3kW-2ea,

not drop for 24 hours, the system passes the test. If the pressure drops, check where the nitro­gen leaks. For the test method, refer to the following figure. (Make a test with the service valves closed. Be also sure to pressurize liquid pipe, gas pipe and high/low pressure common pipe)
The test result can be judged good if the pressure has not be reduced after leaving for about one day after completion of nitrogen gas pressurization.
NOTE
!
If the ambient temperature differs between the time when pressure is applied and when the pressure drop is checked, apply the following correction factor
There is a pressure change of approximately 0.01Mpa(1.5psi) for each 33.8°F of temperature difference. Correction = (Temp. at the time of pressurization – Temp. at the time of check) X 0.1
For example: Temperature at the time of pressurization 3.8MPa(551psi) is 80.6°F
24 hour later : 3.73MPa(541psi), 68°F In this case the pressure drop of 0.07MPa(10psi) is because of temperature drop And hence there is no leakage in pipe occurred.
CAUTION
To prevent the nitrogen from entering the refrigeration system in the liquid state, the top of the cylinder must be at higher position than the bottom when you pressurize the system.
Usually the cylinder is used in a vertical standing position.
!
WARNING
Use a vacuum pump or Inert(nitrogen) gas when doing leakage test or air purge. Do not com­press air or Oxygen and do not use Flammable gases. Otherwise, it may cause fire or explo­sion.
- There is the risk of death, injury, fire or explosion.

Vacuum Vacuum drying should be made from the service port provided on the outdoor unit’s service valve to the
vacuum pump commonly used for liquid pipe, gas pipe and high/low pressure common pipe. (Make Vacuum from liquid pipe, gas pipe and high/low pressure common pipe with the service valve closed.) * Never perform air purging using refrigerant.
Vacuum drying: Use a vacuum pump that can evacuate to -100.7kPa (-14.6psi, 5Torr, -755mmHg).
- Evacuate the system from the liquid and gas pipes with a vacuum pump for over 2 hrs and bring
the system to -100.7kPa(-14.6psi). After maintaining system under that condition for over 1 hr, confirm the vacuum gauge rises. The system may contain moisture or leak.
- Following should be executed if there is a possibility of moisture remaining inside the pipe.
(Rainwater may enter the pipe during work in the rainy season or over a long period of time) After evacuating the system for 2 hrs, give pressure to the system to 0.05MPa(7.3psi)(vacuum break) with nitrogen gas and then evacuate it again with the vacuum pump for 1hr to -
100.7kPa(-14.6psi)(vacuum drying). If the system cannot be evacuated to -100.7kPa(-14.6psi) within 2 hrs, repeat the steps of vacuum break and its drying. Finally, check if the vacuum gauge does not rise or not, after maintaining the system in vacuum for 1 hr.
NOTE
!
Always add an appropriate amount of refrigerant. (For the refrigerant additional charge) Too much or too little refrigerant will cause trouble. To use the Vacuum Mode (If the Vacuum mode is set, all valves of Indoor units and Outdoor units will be opened.)
WARNING
Use a vacuum pump or Inert(nitrogen) gas when doing leakage test or air purge. Do not compress air or Oxygen and do not use Flammable gases. Otherwise, it may cause fire or explosion.
- There is the risk of death, injury, fire or explosion.
!
WARNING
When installing and moving the air conditioner to another site, recharge after perfect evacuation.
- If a different refrigerant or air is mixed with the original refrigerant, the refrigerant cycle may malfunction and the unit may be damaged.

Caution
- Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related to electrical equipment, wiring regulations and guidance of each electric power company.
-
Install the Outdoor Unit communication cable away from the power source wiring so that it is not af­fected by electric noise from the power source. (Do not run it through the same conduit.)
- Be sure to provide designated grounding work to Outdoor Unit.
- Give some allowance to wiring for electrical part box of Indoor and Outdoor Units, because the box is sometimes removed at the time of service work.
- Never connect the main power source to terminal block of communication cable. If connected, electrical parts will be burnt out.
- Use 2-core shield cable for communication cable.(O mark in the figure below) If communication cable of different systems are wired with the same multiplecore cable, the resultant poor trans­mitting and receiving will cause erroneous operations. ( mark in the figure below)
- Only the communication cable specified should be connected to the terminal block for Outdoor Unit communication.
CAUTION
Be sure to correct the outdoor unit to earth. Do not connect ground wire to any gas pipe, liquid pipe, lightening rod or telephone earth line. If earth is incomplete, it may cause an electric shock.

CAUTION
• Use the 2-core shield cables for communication cables. Never use them together with power
cables.
• The conductive shielding layer of cable should be grounded to the metal part of both units.
• Never use multi-core cable
• As this unit is equipped with an inverter, to install a phase leading capacitor not only will deteri-
orate power factor improvement effect, but also may cause capacitor abnormal heating. There­fore, never install a phase leading capacitor.
• Make sure that the power unbalance ratio is not greater than 2%. If it is greater the units lifes-
pan will be reduced.
Precautions when laying power and ground wiring
Use round pressure terminals for connections to the power terminal block. When laying ground wiring, you must use round pressure terminals.
Round pressure terminal
Power wire (Ground wire)
When none are available, follow the instructions below.
- Do not connect wiring of different thicknesses to the power terminal block. (Slack in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat.)
- When connecting cable which is the same thickness, do as shown in the figure below.
- For wiring, use the designated power cable and connect firmly, then secure to prevent outside pressure being exerted on the terminal block.
- Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the terinal screws. A screwdriver with a small head will strip the head and make proper tighterning impossible.
- Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.

Separation of communication and power cables
- If communication and power cables are run alongside each other then there is a strong likeli­hood of operational faults developing due to interference in the signal wiring caused by electro­static and electromagnetic coupling. The tables below indicates our recommendation as to appropriate spacing of communication and power cables where these are to be run side by side
NOTE
!
• The figures are based on assumed length of parallel cabling up to 100m(328ft). For length in excess of 100m(328ft) the figures will have to be recalculated in direct proportion to the additional length of cable involved.
• If the power supply waveform continues to exhibit some distortion the recommended spacing in the table should be increased.
- If the cable are laid inside conduits then the following point must also be taken into ac­count when grouping various cable together for introduction into the conduits
- Power cable(including power supply to air conditioner) and communication cables must not be laid inside the same
- In the same way, when grouping the power wires and communication cables should not be bunched together.

Wiring of main power supply and equipment capacity
- Use a separate power supply for the Outdoor Unit and Indoor Unit.
- Bear in mind ambient conditions (ambient temperature,direct sunlight, rain water,etc.) when proceeding with the wiring and connections.
- The cable size is the minimum value for metal conduit wiring. The power cord size should be 1 rank thicker taking into account the line voltage drops. Make sure the power-supply voltage does not drop more than 10%.
- Specific wiring requirements should adhere to the wiring regulations of the region.
- Power supply cords of parts of appliances for outdoor use should not be lighter than polychloro­prene sheathed flexible cord.
- Don't install an individual switch or electrical outlet to disconnect each of indoor unit separately from the power supply.
CAUTION
• Some installation site may require attachment of an earth leakage breaker. If no earth leakage breaker is installed, it may cause an electric shock.
• Do not use anything other than breaker and fuse with correct capacity. Using fuse and wire or copper wire with too large capacity may cause a malfunction of unit or fire.
!
WARNING
• Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related to elec­trical equipment, wiring regulations and guidance of each electric power company.
• Make sure to use specified cables for connections so that no external force is imparted to terminal connections. If connections are not fixed firmly, it may cause heating or fire.
• Make sure to use the appropriate type of overcurrent protection switch. Note that gener­ated overcurrent may include some amount of direct current.

WARNING
• Indoor Unit ground Lines are required for preventing electrical shock accident during cur­rent leakage, Communication disorder by noise effect and motor current leakage (without connection to pipe).
• Don't install an individual switch or electrical outlet to disconnect each of indoor unit sepa­rately from the power supply.
• Install the main switch that can interrupt all the power sources in an integrated manner because this system consists of the equipment utilizing the multiple power sources.
• If there exists the possibility of reversed phase, lose phase, momentary blackout or the power goes on and off while the product is operating, attach a reversed phase protection circuit locally. Running the product in reversed phase may break the compressor and other parts.

• Countermeasure 1 Provide opening for ventilation. Provide 0.15% or more opening to floor space both above and below door, or provide opening without door.
• Countermeasure 2 Provide gas leak alarm linked with mechanical ventilator. Reducing the outdoor refrigerant qty.

Refrigerant concentration
[Kg/m3(lbs/ft3)]
Total amount of replenished refrigerant in refrigerant facility [kg(lbs)]
Capacity of smallest room where indoor unit is installed [m3(ft3)]
In case the result of calculation exceeds the limiting concentration, perform the same calculations by shifting to the second smallest, and the third smallest rooms until at last the result is below the limiting concentration.

Selecting the location(Outdoor Unit)
If the outdoor unit is to be installed close to the seaside, direct exposure to the sea wind should be avoided. Install the outdoor unit on the opposite side of the sea wind direction.
In case, to install the outdoor unit on the sea­side, set up a windbreak not to be exposed to the sea wind.
- It should be strong enough like concrete to prevent the sea wind from the sea.
- The height and width should be more than 150% of the outdoor unit.
- It should be keep more than 70 cm (2.3ft) of space between outdoor unit and the wind­break for easy air flow.
Select a well-drained place.
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.
• If outdoor unit is installed close to the seaside, it should avoid direct exposure to the sea wind. Otherwise it needs additional anticorrosion treatment on the heat exchanger.

OUTDOOR UNIT (ODU) INSTALLATION DETAILS FOR (3) FOAM SCREW PROTECTOR PADS
ENGLISH
Place (1) foam pad at the bottom of the unit between the casing and the coil in each of the fol­lowing locations:
• Right side (toward front side of ODU) and securely in place to protect the heat exchanger coil from the sharp screw points.
• Left side (toward front side of ODU) and securely in place to protect the heat exchanger coil from the sharp screw points.
• Back side (center of ODU) and securely in place to protect the heat exchanger coil from the sharp screw points. Note: take caution as screw locations are not easily visible.
Important:
The (3) pads must be securely in place to protect the heat exchanger coil from the sharp screw points during a seismic event.
