Before Installation
10 Outdoor Unit
Before Installation
• 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.
• When carrying the suspended, unit pass the ropes between legs of base panel under the unit.
• Always lift the unit with ropes attached at four points so that impact is not applied to the unit.
• Attach the ropes to the unit at an angle of 40° or less.
• Use only accessories and parts which are of the designated specification when installing.
* Product appearance may be different depending on model.
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 heat insulation material for the refrigerant piping which has an excellent heat-resistance (over 120°C).
2. Precautions in high humidity circumstance: This air conditioner has been tested according to the "KSStandard 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 23°C), water drops are liable to fall. In this case, add heat insulation material according to the following procedure:
• Heat insulation material to be prepared... Adiabatic glass wool with thickness 10 to 20mm.
• Stick glass wool on all air conditioners that are located in ceiling atmosphere.
• In addition to the normal heat insulation (thickness: more than 8mm) for refrigerant piping (gas piping: thick piping) and drain piping, add further 10mm to 30mm thickness material.

• The installation piping is connectable in four directions.(refer to figure 1)
• When connecting in a downward direction, knock out the knockout hole of the base pan. (refer to figure2, figure3)
n Preventing foreign objects from
entering (Figure 4)
• Plug the pipe through-holes with putty or insulation material(procured locally)to stop up all gaps,as shown in the figure 3.
• Insects or small animals entering the outdoor unit may cause a short circuit in the electrical box.
• Braze suitable field piping with service valve of gas pipe.

n After connecting the refrigerant pipe and checking the refrigerant leakage, cover it with heat insulator and roll
around it with vinyl tape. Tighten up the flare nut fitting on regulated torque. (Until “clatter” sounds is made at torque wrench part.)
n Do not bend the pipe more than twice and work on it
making it a big half circle. If it is folded over, cooling/heating capacity may decrease and it could be the reason of malfunction. Do not remove the cap on flare side until the connection. Dust and sand inside pipes can be the reason of malfunction.

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 use refrigerant to perform an air purge. Always evacuate using a vacuum pump.
11. Always insulate the piping properly. Insufficient insulation will result in a decline in heating/cooling
performance, drip of condensate and other such problems.
12. 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.
13. Always blow nitrogen into pipe which is brazed. 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.

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.
WARNING
Do not use anti-oxidants when brazing the pipe joints. Residue can clog pipes and break equipment.

Refrigerant Piping
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.
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. During this test, set DIP switch as Vacuum Mode.
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
2
(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.

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. Vaccum of the pipe and the indoor units should be made from the port of the outdoor unit's service valve 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
• If the primary charging is not performed after vacuum, wet air may go into the outdoor unit. If air is mixed with the refrigerant, the refrigerant cycle may malfunction and the unit may be damaged.
• Charging of refrigerant while the compressor is working is prohibited. Otherwise, liquid may go into the compressor. It may cause faults of the compressor.
• Use a gravimeter accurate to 0.1kg.
• If other refrigerants are mixed in the original refrigerant, a refrigerant cycle may cause malfunction or damage.
• Add accurate refrigerant quantity via calculation. Too much or too little refrigerant may cause problems
• Repeated on and off of the indoor units without charging refrigerant may cause faults of EEV.
• 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.

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.
Though the R410A refrigerant is harmless and incombustible itself , the room to equip the air conditioner should be large enough to such an extent that the refrigerant gas will not exceed the limiting concentration even if the refrigerant gas leaks in the room
.
n Limiting concentration
Check limiting concentration along following steps and take appropriate measure depending on the situation.
n 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/m3(Freon gas weight per unit air volume) for facilitating calculation.
Limiting concentration: 0.44kg/m
