Select the Best Location
Precaution when selecting the installation location
• Select space for installation outside unit, which will meet the following conditions.
• With strength which bears weight of unit
• With space for air passage and service work
Don't install the unit at the space where generation, inflow, stagnation, and leak of combustible gas is expected.
• Avoid unit installation in a place where acidic solution and spray (sulfur) are often used.
• Location with no leakage of combustible gas
• Recommend the outside unit to be installed within 0~40°C.
• Location with installation or service work space (Refer to required space)
• Do not use the outside unit under any special environment where oil, steam and sulfuric gas exist.
• Install in a separate machine room not exposed to external air
- Establish an anti-freeze plan for the water supply when the product is stopped during the winter.
- Install the product so that the noise from the machine room is not transferred outsides
• The floor of the machine room must be water proof.
• Drainage must be installed in the machine room to process the water drainage.
• Install a floor slope to make the drainage smooth.
• Avoid installing the outside unit in the location with following conditions.
•
Location where corrosive gas such as acidic gas is generated. (It may cause the refrigerant leakage by corrosion of the pipe.)
• Location where electromagnetic waves happen. (It may cause the abnormal operation by control parts disorder.)
• Location to be able to leak the combustible gas
• Location with carbon fiber or combustible dust.
• Location with the combustible material like thinner or gasoline. (It may cause a fire by leaking the gas near the product.)
• 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
1. Do not install Multi V water outside. Always install indoor like machine room.
2. Inverter product may generate electric noise. Keep the body from computer, stereo etc. at enough distance. Specially leave space from indoor remote controller to shoes electric devices at the above 3m in weak electric wave
area. Insert the power cable and other wire into separate conduit.
• 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.

Water control
Water control
Water control
• Keep the water temperature between 10~45°C. Other it may cause the breakdown.
- Standard water supply temperature is 30°C for Cooling and 20°C for heating.
• Properly control the water velocity. Otherwise it may cause the noise, pipe vibration or pipe contraction, expansion
according to the temperature. Use the same water pipe size connected with the product or more.
• Refer to the water source pipe diameter and water velocity table below. As the water velocity is fast, air bubble will
increase.
• Be careful of the water purity control. Otherwise it may cause the breakdown due to water pipe corrosion.
(Refer to 'Standard Table for Water Purity Control')
• In case the water temperature is above 40°C, it is good to prevent the corrosion by adding the anticorrosive agent.
• Install the pipe, valve and gauge sensor in the space where it is easy to maintain. Install the water valve in the low
position for drain, if required.
• Be careful not to let air in. If so, the water velocity will be unstable in the circulation, pump efficiency will also decrease and may cause the piping vibration. Therefore, install the air purge where it may generate the air.
• Choose the following anti freezing methods. Otherwise, it will be dangerous for the pipe to break in the winter.
- Circulate the water with the pump before dropping the temperature.
- Keep the normal temperature by boiler.
- When the cooling tower is not operated for a long time, drain the water in the cooling tower.
- Use an anti-freeze. (For using an anti freeze, change the DIP switch on main PCB in outside unit.)
- Refer to the additive amount about freezing temperature as in the table given below.
• In addition to anti freeze, it may cause the change of the pressure in the water system and the low performance of
the product.
• It can use to both the open cooling type and closed cooling type tower.

Standard table for water purity control
The water may contain many foreign substances and hence may influence the performance and lifetime of the product due to the corrosion of the condenser and water pipe. (Use water source that complies with the below standard
table for water purity control.)
If you use water supply other than the tap water to supply the water for the cooling tower, you must do a water quality
inspection.
• If you use the closed cooling tower, the water quality must be controlled in accordance with the following standard
table.
If you do not control the water quality in accordance with the following standard water quality table, it can cause performance deterioration to the air conditioner and severe problem to the product
[Reference]
(1) The "O" mark for corrosion and scale means that there is possibility of occurrence.
(2) When the water temperature is 40°C or above or when uncoated iron is exposed to the water, it can result in corro-
sion. Therefore adding anti-corrosion agent or removing the air can be very effective.
(3) In case of using the closed type cooling tower, the cooling water and supplementing water must satisfy the water qual-
ity criteria of closed type system in the table.
(4) Supplementing water and supplied water must be supplied with tap water, industrial water and underground water ex-
cluding filtered water, neutral water, soft water etc.
(5) 15 items in the table are general causes of corrosion and scale.

Note 1) General location: When the pipe passes through indoors in which the indoor unit is operated
- Apartment, classroom, office, mall, hospital, office-tel etc.
Note 2) Special location
1. When the location is air conditioned but has severe temperature/humidity difference due to high ceiling
- Church, auditorium, theater, lobby etc.
2. When the location is air conditioned but the internal temperature/humidity of the ceiling finishing is high
- Bathroom/swimming pool locker room etc. (Building with roof ceiling of sandwich assembly type)
Note 3) General location: When the pipe passes indoors where the indoor unit is not operated
- Hall way etc. (Dormitory, school, office-tel)
Note 4) Negative condition: When below conditions 1 and 2 are met.
1. When the pipe passes indoors where the indoor unit is not operated
2. When the humidity is high, regionally, and there is no air flow in the pipe passing area
-
When installing the outside unit within the outside pipe tray or at a location where it is ok to have freezes, apply 13t.
- If you are not sure with the selection of heat insulation material, coordinate with the supervision or HQ.
- The thickness of the above heat insulation material is based on the heat conductivity of 0.088W/m°C.

After completing work, securely tighten both service ports and caps so that gas does not leak.
Refrigerant piping installation
Always use extreme care to prevent the refrigerant gas (R410A) from leakage while using fire or
flame. If the refrigerant gas comes in contact with the flame from any source, such as a gas stove, it
breaks down and generates a poisonous gas which can cause gas poisoning. Never perform brazing
in an unventilated room. Always conduct an inspection for gas leakage after installation of the refrigerant piping has been completed.
