Turn on the power at least 6 hours before starting operation.

• Starting operation immediately after turning on the main power switch can result in severe damage to internal parts. Keep the power switch turned on during the operational season.

Be very careful about product transportation.

• Only one person should not carry the product if it weighs more than 20 kg.

• Some products use PP bands for packaging. Do not use any PP bands for a means of transportation. It is dangerous.

• Do not touch the heat exchanger fins. Doing so may cut your fingers.

• When transporting the outdoor unit, suspending it at the specified positions on the unit base. Also support the outdoor unit at four points so that it cannot slip sideways.

Do not touch any of the refrigerant piping during and after operation.

• It can cause a burn or frostbite.

Do not operate the air conditioner with the panels or guards removed.

• Rotating, hot, or high-voltage parts can cause injuries.

Do not directly turn off the main power switch after stopping operation.

• Wait at least 5 minutes before turning off the main power switch. Otherwise it may result in water leakage or other problems.

Auto-addressing should be done in condition of connecting the power of all indoor and outdoour units. Auto-addressing should also be done in case of changing the indoor unit PCB.

Use a firm stool or ladder when cleaning or maintaining the air conditioner.

• Be careful and avoid personal injury.

Do not insert hands or other objects through the air inlet or outlet while the air conditioner is plugged in.

• There are sharp and moving parts that could cause personal injury.

Installation Process

• The above list indicates the order in which the individual work operations are normally carried out but this order may be varied where local conditions warrants such change.

• The wall thickness of the piping should comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed pressure

3.8MPa.

• 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.)

Select the Best Location

Select space for installing outdoor unit, which will meet the following conditions:

• No direct thermal radiation from other heat sources

• No possibility of annoying neighbors by noise from unit

• No exposition to strong wind

• With strength which bears weight of unit

• Note that drain flows out of unit when heating

• With space for air passage and service work shown next

• Because of the possibility of fire, do not install unit to the space where generation, inflow, stagnation, and leakage of combustible gas is expected.

• Avoid unit installation in a place where acidic solution and spray (sulfur) are often used.

• Do not use unit under any special environment where oil, steam and sulfuric gas exist.

• It is recommended to fence round the outdoor unit in order to prevent any person or animal from accessing the outdoor unit.

• If installation site is area of heavy snowfall, then the following directions should be observed.

- Make the foundation as high as possible.

- Fit a snow protection hood.

• Select installation location considering following conditions to avoid bad condition when additionally performing defrost operation.

1. Install the outdoor unit at a place well ventilated and having a lot of sunshine in case of installing the

product at a place With a high humidity in winter (near beach, coast, lake, etc. ) (Ex : Rooftop where there is always sunshine.)

• 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. These days the developed countries have approved it as the environment-friendly refrigerant and encouraged to use it widely to prevent environment pollution.

Environment-friendly Alternative Refrigerant R410A

CAUTION:

• The wall thickness of the piping should comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed pressure 3.8MPa

• 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.

1. Use the following materials for refrigerant piping.

• Material: Seamless phosphorous deoxidized copper pipe

• Wall thickness : Comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed pressure

3.8MPa. We recommend the following table as the minimum wall thickness.

2. Commercially available piping often contains dust and other materials. Always blow it clean with a dry

inert gas.

3. Use care to prevent dust, water or other contaminants from entering the piping during installation.

4. Reduce the number of bending portions as much as possible, and make bending radius as big as

possible.

5. Always use the branch piping set shown below, which are sold separately.

6. If the diameters of the branch piping of the designated refrigerant piping differs, use a pipe cutter to cut the connecting section and then use an adapter for connecting different diameters to connect the piping.

7. Always observe the restrictions on the refrigerant piping (such as rated length, difference in height, and piping diameter). Failure to do so can result in equipment failure or a decline in heating/cooling performance.

8. A second branch cannot be made after a header. (These are shown by .)

9. The Multi V will stop due to an abnormality like excessive or insufficient refrigerant. At such a time, always properly charge the unit. When servicing, always check the notes concerning both the piping length and the amount of additional refrigerant.

10. Never perform a pump down. This will not only damage the compressor but also deteriorate the

performance.

11. Never use refrigerant to perform an air purge. Always evacuate air by using a vacuum pump.

Refrigerant piping installation

WARNING

When installing and moving the air conditioner to another site, be sure to make recharge refrigerant 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.

- After selecting diameter of the refrigerant pipe to suit total capacity of the indoor unit connected after branching, use an appropriate branch pipe set according to the pipe diameter of the indoor unit and the installation pipe drawing.

12. Always insulate the piping properly. Insufficient insulation will result in a decline in heating/cooling performance, drip of condensate and other such problems.

13. When connecting the refrigerant piping, make sure the service valves of the Outdoor Unit is completely closed (the factory setting) and do not operate it until the refrigerant piping for the Outdoor and Indoor Units has been connected, a refrigerant leakage test has been performed and the evacuation process has been completed.

14. Always use a non-oxidizing brazing material for brazing the parts and do not use flux. If not, oxidized film can cause clogging or damage to the compressor unit and flux can harm the copper piping or refrigerant oil.

Leak Test and Vacuum drying

(1) Leak test

Leak test should be m

ade by pressurizing nitrogen gas to 3.8 MPa(38.7kgf/cm2). If the pressure does 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 0.1 kg/cm

(0.01 MPa) for each 1°C 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 (3.8 MPa) is 27 °C

24 hour later: 3.73 MPa, 20°C In this case the pressure drop of 0.07 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.

(2) Vacuum

Vacuum drying should be made from the service port provided on the outdoor unitʼs 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 (5 Torr, -755mmHg).

1. Evacuate the system from the liquid and gas pipes with a vacuum pump for over 2 hrs and bring the system to -100.7kPa. After maintaining system under that condition for over 1 hr, confirm the vacuum gauge rises. The system may contain moisture or leak.

2. 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(vacuum break) with nitrogen gas and then evacuate it again with the vacuum pump for 1hr to -100.7kPa(vacuum drying). If the system cannot be evacuated to -100.7kPa 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.

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.

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.)

Caution

CAUTION

Be sure to correct the outdoor unit to earth. Do not connect earth line to any gas pipe, liquid pipe, lightening rod or telephone earth line. If earth is incomplete, it may cause an electric shock.

WARNING

Be sure to have authorized electrical engineers do the electric work using special circuits in accordance with regulations and this installation manual. If power supply circuit has a lack of capacity or electric work deficiency, it may cause an electric shock or fire.

1. Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related to electrical equipment, wiring regulations and guidance of each electric power company.

2. Install the Outdoor Unit transmission line 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.)

3. Be sure to provide designated grounding work to Outdoor Unit.

4. 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.

5. Never connect the main power source to terminal block of transmission line. If connected, electrical parts will be burnt out.

6. Use 2-core shield cable for transmission line.(O mark in the figure below) If transmission lines 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)

7. Only the transmission line specified should be connected to the terminal block for Outdoor Unit transmission.

• Types : shielding wire

• Cross section : 1.0~1.5mm

• Maximum allowable temperature: 60°C

• Maximum allowable line length: under 1000m

2) Remote control cable

• Types : 3-core cable

3) Central control cable

4) Separation of transmission and power lines

• If transmission and power lines 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 transmission and power lines where these are to be run side by side

Note:

1. The figures are based on assumed length of parallel cabling up to 100m. For length in excess of 100m

the figures will have to be recalculated in direct proportion to the additional length of line involved.

2. If the power supply waveform continues to exhibit some distortion the recommended spacing in the

table should be increased.

• If the lines are laid inside conduits then the following point must also be taken into account when grouping various lines together for introduction into the conduits

• Power lines(including power supply to air conditioner) and signal lines must not be laid inside the same

• In the same way, when grouping the lines power and signal lines should not be bunched together.

Electrical Wiring

1. Use a separate power supply for the Outdoor Unit and Indoor Unit.

2. Bear in mind ambient conditions (ambient temperature,direct sunlight, rain water,etc.) when proceeding with the wiring and connections.

3. The wire 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%.

4. Specific wiring requirements should adhere to the wiring regulations of the region.

5. Power supply cords of parts of appliances for outdoor use should not be lighter than polychloroprene sheathed flexible cord.

6. Don't install an individual switch or electrical outlet to disconnect each of indoor unit separately from

the power supply.

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 wires 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.

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.

Select function to be executed during the test run

Step 1 Refrigerant Automatic Recharge

If additional bottling of the refrigerant is needed, operate to perform this automatically.

Step 2. Automatic Refrigerant Decisions

Inspect if the bottled refrigerant in the system has adequate quantity.

Step 3. Integrated Test Run

Process to verify the normal operations of the parts attached to the system, and verify normal operation of the system.

❈ Gas pipes and Liquid pipes connections inspection

: Inspect whether the gas pipes and Liquid pipes are connected to each other.

Test Run

Check to see whether there is any refrigerant leakage, and slack of power or transmission cable.

Confirm that 500 V megger shows 2 MΩ or more between power supply terminal block and ground. Do not operate in the case of 2 MΩ or less.

NOTE: Never carry out megaohm check over terminal control board. Otherwise the control board

would be broken. Immediately after mounting the unit or after leaving it turned off for an extended length of time, the resistance of the insulation between the power supply terminal board and the ground may decrease to approx. 2 MΩ as a result of refrigerant accumulating in the internal compressor. If the insulation resistance is less than 2 MΩ, turning on the main power supply and energizing the crankcase heater for more than 6 hours will cause the refrigerant to evaporate, increasing the insulation resistance.

Check if high/low pressure common pipe, liquid pipe and gas pipe valves are fully opened.

NOTE: Be sure to tighten caps.

Check if there are any problems in automatic addressing or not: Check and confirm that there are no error messages in the display of indoor units or remote controls and LED in outdoor units.

Checks Before Test Run

CAUTION when cutting main power of the Multi V

• Always apply main power of the outdoor unit during use of product (cooling season/heating season).

• Always apply power 6 hours in advance to heat the crank case heater where performing test run after installation of product. It may result in burning out of the compressor if not preheating the crank case with the electrical heater for more than 6 hours.(In case of the outdoor temperatue below 10°C)

Caution For Refrigerant Leak

The installer and system specialist shall secure safety against leakage according to local regulations or standards. The following standards may be applicable if local regulations are not available.

n Limiting concentration

Though the R410A refrigerant is harmless and incombustible itself , the room to equip the air conditioner should be large to such an extent that the refrigerant gas will not exceed the limiting concentration even if the refrigerant gas leaks in the room.

Check limiting concentration along following steps and take appropriate measure depending on the situation.

Calculate amount of all the replenished refrigerant (kg) per each refrigerant system.

n Calculate minimum room capacity

Calculate room capacity by regarding a portion as one room or the smaller room. (1) Without partition

(2) With partition and with opening which serve as

passage of air to adjoining room

Caution For Refrigerant Leak

Introduction

Checking procedure of limiting concentration

Limiting concentration is the limit of Freon gas concentration where immediate measures can be taken without hurting human body when refrigerant leaks in the air. The limiting concentration shall be described in the unit of kg/m

(Freon gas weight per unit air volume) for facilitating calculation.

Amount of additional replenished refrigerant

Total amount of replenished refrigerant in refrigerant facility (kg)

Note : In case one refrigerant facility is

divided into 2 or more refrigerant systems and each system is independent, amount of replenished refrigerant of each system shall be adopted.

n Calculate refrigerant concentration

n In case the concentration exceeds the limit

When the concentration exceeds the limit, change original plan or take one of the countermeasures shown below:

• 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.

Pay a special attention to the place, such as a basement, etc. where refrigerant can stay, since refrigerant is heavier than air.

CAUTION

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

2. 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.

3. 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.

Selecting the location(Outdoor Unit)

1) 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.

2) In case, to install the outdoor unit on the seaside, set up a windbreak not to be exposed to the sea wind.

Windbreak

Sea wind

3) Select a well-drained place.

1. Periodic ( more than once/year ) cleaning of the dust or salt particles stuck on the heat exchanger by using water

• 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 of space between outdoor unit and the windbreak for easy air flow.
