Warning : Carefully read the labels affixed to the main unit.

Before installing the unit, be sure to carefully read all of the following safety precautions.

These precautions provide important information regarding safety. Be sure to follow them to ensure safety.

After reading this handbook, hand it over to those who will be using the unit. The user of the unit should keep this manual at hand and make it available to those who will be performing repairs or relocating the unit. Also, make it available to the new user when the user changes hands.

Be sure to carefully follow each step in this handbook when installing the unit.

• Improper installation may result in water leak,

electric shock, smoke or fire.

Securely attach the terminal cover (panel) on the unit.

• If installed improperly, dust and/or water may enter

the unit and present a risk of electric shock, smoke, or fire.

Only use Refrigerant R410A as indicated on the unit when installing or relocating the unit.

• The use of any other refrigerant or an introduction of

air into the unit circuit may cause the unit to run an abnormal cycle and cause the unit to burst.

Do not make any changes or modifications to the unit. In case of problems, consult the dealer.

• If repairs are not made properly, the unit may leak

water and present a risk of electric shock, or it may produce smoke or cause fire.

Have all electrical work performed by a licensed electrician according to the local regulations and the instructions given in this manual. Secure a circuit designated exclusively to the unit.

• Improper installation or a lack of circuit capacity may

cause the unit to malfunction or present a risk of electric shock, smoke, and fire.

Have the unit professionally installed.

• Improper installation by an unqualified person may

result in water leak, electric shock, or fire.

Only use specified cables for wiring. Securely connect each cable, and make sure that the cables are not straining the terminals.

• Cables not connected securely and properly may

generate heat and cause fire.

Place the unit on a stable, level surface that withstands the weight of the unit to prevent the unit from tipping over or falling causing injury as a result.

Take necessary safety measures against typhoons and earthquakes to prevent the unit from falling over.

- 1 -

When relocating the air conditioner, consult the dealer or a specialist.

• Improper installation may result in water leak,

electric shock, or fire.

• Consult the dealer for necessary measures to take.

After completing the service work, check for a refrigerant gas leak.

• If leaked gas refrigerant is exposed to a heart

source such as fan heater, stove, and electric grill, noxious gases may form.

In the event of a refrigerant gas leak, provide adequate ventilation to the room.

• If leaked refrigerant gas is exposed to a heat source,

noxious gases may form.

With All-Fresh type air conditioners, outdoor air may be directly blown into the room upon thermo off. Take this into consideration when installing the unit.

• Direct exposure to outdoor air may present a health

hazard, and it may also cause food items to deteriorate.

When installing the unit in a small room, safeguard against hypoxia that results from leaked refrigerant reaching the threshold level.

Precautions for Handling Units for Use with R410A

Caution

Warning : Carefully read the labels affixed to the main unit.

Do not try to defeat the safety features of the devices, and do not change the settings.

• Defeating the safety features on the unit such as the

pressure switch and temperature switch or using parts other than those specified by Mitsubishi Electric may result in fire or explosion.

Use refrigerant pipes made of C1220 phosphorus deoxidized copper categorized under H3000 (Copper and Copper Alloy Seamless Pipes and Tubes), a standard set by JIS. Keep the inner and outer surfaces of the pipes clean and free of contaminants such as sulfur, oxides, dust/dirt, shaving particles, oils, and moisture.

• Contaminants inside the refrigerant piping will cause

the refrigerant oil to deteriorate.

Do not use the following tools that have been used with the conventional refrigerants.Prepare tools that are for exclusive use with R410A. (Gauge manifold, charging hose, gas leak detector, reverse-flow check valve, refrigerant charge base, vacuum gauge, and refrigerant recovery equipment.)

• If refrigerant and /or refrigerant oil left on these tools

are mixed in with R410A, or if water is mixed with R410A, it will cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.

• Since R410A does not contain chlorine, gas-leak

detectors for conventional refrigerators will not work.

Only use specified parts.

• Have the unit professionally installed.

Improper installation may cause water leak, electric shock, smoke, or fire.

Use a vacuum pump with a reverse-flow-check valve.

• If other types of valves are used, the vacuum pump

oil will flow back into the refrigerant cycle and cause the refrigerator oil to deteriorate.

Do not use the existing refrigerant piping

• The old refrigerant and refrigerator oil in the existing

piping contain a large amount of chlorine, which will cause the refrigerator oil in the new unit to deteriorate.

• R410A is a high-pressure refrigerant, and the use of

the existing piping may result in bursting.

- 2 -

Before Installing the Unit

Warning

Caution

Store the piping to be used during installation indoors, and keep both ends of the piping sealed until immediately before brazing. (Keep elbows and other joints wrapped in plastic.)

• If dust, dirt, or water enters the refrigerant cycle, it

may cause the oil in the unit to deteriorate or may cause the compressor to malfunction.

Use a small amount of ester oil, ether oil, or alkylbenzene to coat flares and flange connections.

• A large amount of mineral oil will cause the

refrigerating machine oil to deteriorate.

Do not use a charging cylinder.

• The use of charging cylinder will change the

composition of the refrigerant and lead to power loss.

Exercise special care when handling the tools.

• An introduction of foreign objects such as dust, dirt,

or water into the refrigerant cycle will cause the refrigerating machine oil to deteriorate.

Only use R410A refrigerant.

• The use of refrigerants containing chlorine (i.e. R22)

will cause the refrigerant to deteriorate.

Use liquid refrigerant to charge the system.

• Charging the unit with gas refrigerant will cause the

refrigerant in the cylinder to change its composition and will lead to a drop in performance.

Do not install the unit in a place where there is a possibility of flammable gas leak.

• Leaked gas accumulated around the unit may start a

fire.

Do not use the unit to preserve food, animals, plants, artifacts, or for other special purposes.

• The unit is not designed to provide adequate

conditions to preserve the quality of these items.

When installing the unit in a hospital, take necessary measures against noise.

• High-frequency medical equipment may interfere

with the normal operation of the air conditioning unit or the air conditioning unit may interfere with the normal operation of the medical equipment.

Do not use the unit in an unusual environment.

• The use of the unit in the presence of a large

amount of oil, steam, acid, alkaline solvents, or special types of sprays may lead to a remarkable drop in performance and/or malfunction and presents a risk of electric shock, smoke, or fire.

• The presence of organic solvents, corroded gas

(such as ammonia, sulfur compounds, and acid) may cause gas or water leak.

Do not place the unit on or over things that may not get wet.

• When humidity level exceeds 80% or when the

drainage system is clogged, indoor units may drip water.

• Installation of a centralized drainage system for the

outdoor unit may also need to be considered to prevent water drips from the outdoor units.

Before Installing (Relocating) the Unit or Performing Electric Work

Caution

Warning

Do not spray water on the air conditioners or immerse the air conditioners in water.

• Water on the unit presents a risk of electric shock.

Install a breaker for current leakage at the power source to avoid the risk of electric shock.

• Without a breaker for current leakage, there is a risk

of electric shock, smoke, or fire.

Use wires that are specified in the installation manual.

• The use of other types of wires presents a risk of

electrical current leak, electric shock, smoke, or fire.

Periodically check the platform on which the unit is placed for damage to prevent the unit from falling.

• If the unit is left on a damaged platform, it may

topple over, causing injury.

Ground the unit.

• Do not connect the grounding on the unit to gas

pipes, water pipes, lightning rods, or the grounding terminals of telephones. Improper grounding presents a risk of electric shock, smoke, fire, or the noise caused by improper grounding may cause the unit to malfunction.

Use breakers and fuses (electrical current breaker, remote switch <switch + Type-B fuse>, molded case circuit breaker) with a proper current capacity.

• The use of large-capacity fuses, steel wire, or

copper wire may damage the unit or cause smoke or fire.

When installing draining pipes, follow the instructions in the manual, and make sure that they properly drain water so as to avoid dew condensation.

• If not installed properly, they may cause water leaks

and damage the furnishings.

Make sure the wires are not subject to tension.

• If the wires are too taut, they may break or generate

heat and/or smoke and cause fire.

Exercise caution when transporting products.

• Do not try to move equipments over 20kg (approx. 44 lbs.) alone.

• Do not use the PP bands used on some packages for transportation.

• Wear protective gloves to avoid injury caused by touching the fins on the heat exchanger with bare hands.

• When using a suspension bolt to transport the heatsource unit, use a four-point suspension. A threepoint suspension does not provide adequate stability and presents a risk of accidents.

Properly dispose of the packing materials.

• Things such as nails and wood pieces may be included in the package. Dispose of them properly to prevent injury.

• Plastic bags present a choking hazard to children. Tear up the plastic bags before disposing of them to prevent accidents.

When installing or relocating the unit, make sure that no substance other than the specified refrigerant(R410A) enters the refrigerant circuit.

• Any presence of foreign substance such as air can cause abnormal pressure rise or explosion.

[3] Piping Materials

NOOK

New Piping Existing Piping

Do not use the existing piping!

• The distinction between type-O and type-1/2H pipes is made based on the strength of the pipes themselves.

•Type-O pipes are soft and can easily be bent with hands.

•Type-1/2H pipes are considerably stronger than type-O pipes of the same radial thickness.

Use pipes made of phosphorus deoxidized copper. Since the operation pressure of the units that use R401A is higher than that of the units for use with R22, use pipes with at least the radial thickness specified in the chart below. (Pipes with a radial thickness of 0.7 mm or less may not be used.)

✻ The table shows the standards in Japan. Using this table as a reference, choose pipes that meet the local

standards.

Store the pipes to be used indoors. (Warehouse at site or owner’s warehouse) Storing them outdoors may cause dirt, waste, or water to infiltrate.

Both ends of the pipes should be sealed until immediately before brazing. Wrap elbows and T’s in plastic bags for storage.

✻

The new refrigerator oil is 10 times more hygroscopic than the conventional refrigerator oil (such as Suniso). Water infiltration in the refrigerant circuit may deteriorate the oil or cause a compressor failure. Piping materials must be stored with more care than with the conventional refrigerant pipes.

- 10 -

[4] Storage of Piping Material

1. Storage location

2. Pipe sealing before storage

Use ester oil, ether oil or alkylbenzene (small amount) as the refrigerator oil to coat flares and flange connections.

Reason :

1. The refrigerator oil used for the equipment is highly hygroscopic and may introduce water inside.

Notes :

• Introducing a great quantity of mineral oil into the refrigerant circuit may also cause a compressor failure.

• Do not use oils other than ester oil, ether oil or alkylbenzene.

- 11 -

[5] Piping Machining

No changes from the conventional method, but special care is required so that foreign matter (ie. oxide scale, water, dirt, etc.) does not enter the refrigerant circuit.

Example : Inner state of brazed section

When non-oxide brazing was not used When non-oxide brazing was used

Items to be strictly observed :

1. Do not conduct refrigerant piping work outdoors on a rainy day.

2. Apply non-oxide brazing.

3. Use a brazing material (BCuP-3) which requires no flux when brazing between copper pipes or between a copper pipe and copper coupling.

4. If installed refrigerant pipes are not immediately connected to the equipment, then braze and seal both ends of them.

Reasons :

1. The new refrigerant oil is 10 times more hygroscopic than the conventional oil. The probability of a machine failure if water infiltrates is higher than with conventional refrigerant oil.

2. A flux generally contains chlorine. A residual flux in the refrigerant circuit may generate sludge.

Note :

• Commercially available antioxidants may have adverse effects on the equipment due to its residue, etc. When applying non-oxide brazing, use nitrogen.

- 12 -

[6] Brazing

No changes from the conventional method. Note that a refrigerant leakage detector for R22 or R407C cannot detect R410A leakage.

Halide torch R22 or R407C leakage detector

Items to be strictly observed :

1. Pressurize the equipment with nitrogen up to the design pressure and then judge the equipment’s airtightness, taking temperature variations into account.

2. When investigating leakage locations using a refrigerant, be sure to use R410A.

3. Ensure that R410A is in a liquid state when charging.

Reasons :

1. Use of oxygen as the pressurized gas may cause an explosion.

2. Charging with R410A gas will lead the composition of the remaining refrigerant in the cylinder to change and this refrigerant can then not be used.

Note :

•A leakage detector for R410A is sold commercially and it should be purchased.

1. Vacuum pump with check valve A vacuum pump with a check valve is required to prevent the vacuum pump oil from flowing back into the refrigerant circuit when the vacuum pump power is turned off (power failure). It is also possible to attach a check valve to the actual vacuum pump afterwards.

2. Standard degree of vacuum for the vacuum pump Use a pump which reaches 65Pa or below after 5 minutes of operation. In addition, be sure to use a vacuum pump that has been properly maintained and oiled using the specified oil. If the vacuum pump is not properly maintained, the degree of vacuum may be too low.

3. Required accuracy of the vacuum gauge Use a vacuum gauge that can measure up to 650Pa. Do not use a general gauge manifold since it cannot measure a vacuum of 650Pa.

4. Evacuating time

•Evacuate the equipment for 1 hour after 650Pa has been reached.

• After envacuating, leave the equipment for 1 hour and make sure the that vacuum is not lost.

5. Operating procedure when the vacuum pump is stopped In order to prevent a backflow of the vacuum pump oil, open the relief valve on the vacuum pump side or loosen the charge hose to drawn in air before stopping operation. The same operating procedure should be used when using a vacuum pump with a check valve.

- 13 -

[7] Airtightness Test

[8] Vacuuming

Recommended vacuum gauge : ROBINAIR 14010 Thermistor Vacuum Gauge

1. Vacuum pump with reverse-flow check valve (Photo 1)

To prevent vacuum pump oil from flowing back into the refrigerant circuit upon turning off the vacuum pump’s power

source, use a vacuum pump equipped with a reverse flow check valve.

A check valve may also be added to the vacuum pump currently in use.

2. Standard of vacuum degree (Photos 1 and 2)

Use a vacuum pump that shows a vacuum degree of 65Pa or less after 5 minutes of operation. Use a pump well-

maintained with an appropriate lubricant.

3. Required precision of vacuum gauge

Use a vacuum gauge that registers a vacuum degree of 650Pa and measures at intervals of 130Pa. (A recommended

vacuum gauge is shown in Photo 2.)

Do not use a vacuum gauge that does not register a vacuum degree of 650Pa.

4. Evacuation time

• After the vacuum gauge has registered the vacuum degree of 650Pa, evacuate for 1 hour. (A thorough vacuum drying

removes moisture in the pipes.)

•Verify that the vacuum degree has not risen by more than 130Pa 1 hour after evacuation. A rise by less than 130Pa is

acceptable.

• If it has exceeded by more than 130Pa, conduct vacuuming following the instructions in the “6. Special vacuum drying”

section.

5. Procedures for stopping vacuum pump

To prevent the reverse flow of vacuum pump oil, open the relief valve on the vacuum pump side, or draw in air by

loosening the charge hose, and then stop the operation.

The same procedures should be followed when stopping a vacuum pump with a reverse-flow check valve.

6. Special vacuum drying

• When 650Pa or lower degree of vacuum cannot be attained after 3 hours of evacuation, it is likely that water has

penetrated the system or that there is a leak. When water infiltration is suspected, vacuum with nitrogen gas.

After breaking the vacuum, pressurize the system with nitrogen gas to a degree of 0.05MPa, and conduct an evacuation

again. Repeat it until 650Pa or lower degree of vacuum is attained or the vacuum pressure rise will be lost.

• Only use nitrogen gas for vacuum breaking. (Use of oxygen may cause an explosion.)

R410A is a pseudo-azeotropic refrigerant (boiling point R32 = -52˚C, R125 = -49˚C) and can roughly be handled in the same way as R22; however, be sure to fill the refrigerant from the liquid side, for doing so from the gas side will somewhat change the composition of the refrigerant in the cylinder.

When refrigerant leaks, additional refrigerant may be charged. (Add the refrigerant from the liquid side.) ✻Refer to 9-[5].

[12] Characteristics of the Conventional and the New Refrigerants

1. Chemical property

As with R22, the new refrigerant (R410A) is low in toxicity and a chemically stable non-flammable refrigerant. However, because the specific gravity of steam is greater than that of air, leaked refrigerant in a closed room will accumulate at the bottom of the room and may cause hypoxia. Also, leaked refrigerant exposed directly to an open flame will generate noxious gasses. Use the unit in a well-ventilated room.

3. Pressure Characteristics

The pressure in the units that use R410A is 1.6 times as great as that in the units that use R22.

2. Refrigerant Composition

Because R410A is a simulated azeotropic refrigerant, it can be handled in almost the same manner as a single refrigerant such as R22. However, if the refrigerant is removed in the vapor phase, the composition of the refriger ant in the cylinder will somewhat change. Remove the refrigerant in the liquid phase. Additional refrigerant may be added in case of a refrigerant leak.

2. Effects of the ✻Contaminants in the System

Refrigerating machine oil used in the HFC system must be handled more carefully than conventional mineral oils. The table below shows the effects of air, moisture, and contaminants in the refrigerating machine oil on the refrigeration cycle.

✻ “ Contaminants ” is defined as moisture, air, process oil, dust/dirt, the wrong types of refrigerant and refrigerat-

ing machine oil.

OK NO

➀ Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related to electrical equipment, wiring

regulations, and guidance of each electric power company.

➁ Wiring for control (hereinafter referred to as transmission line) shall be (5cm or more) apart from power source wiring so

that it is not influenced by electric noise from power source wiring. (Do not insert transmission line and power source wire in the same conduit.)

➂ Be sure to provide designated grounding work to heat source unit. ➃ Give some allowance to wiring for electrical part box of indoor and heat source unit, because the box is sometimes rem-

oved at the time of service work.

➄ Never connect 380~415V(220~240V) power source to terminal block of transmission line.If connected,electrical parts

will be burnt out

➅ Use 2-core shield cable for transmission line. If transmission lines of different systems are wired with the same multiple-

core cable, the resultant poor transmitting and receiving will cause erroneous operations.

Type and method of switch setting

Switch setting vary depending on the system configuration. Make sure to read “[3] Examples of system connection” before conducting electrical work. Turn off the power before setting the switch. Operating the switch while the unit is being powered will not change the setting, and the unit will not properly function.

1. Address setting is not required for a single refrigerant system (with a few exception).

2. When setting M-NET remote controller address to “200,” make it “00.”

3. When setting the heat source unit and outdoor auxiliary unit address to “100,” make it “50.”

4. When an address in a system overlapped with the heat source unit or BC controller (Main) address of other refrigerant system, choose an another address within the set range that is not in use (with a few exceptions).

5. When controlling the K-control units; (1) A K-transmission converter (Model name: PAC-SC25KA) is required. To set the address for the K-transmission converter,

set it to the lowest address of the K-control unit to be controlled + 200.

(2) Set the address of the system controller (G-50A) to “0.” The K-control unit can only be controlled by the system controller

with the address “0.”

(3) To control both K-control unit and M-NET model unit, make the address of the K-control unit larger than that of the indoor

unit of M-NET model. Group-register on the system controller so that the group No. and the lowest address of the K-controlled indoor units belonging to the group will be identical.

6. BC controller is found only in the R2 and WR2 systems.

Use the address that equals the sum of the smallest indoor unit address in the same refrigerant system and 50.

Use the address that equals the sum of the smallest address of the indoor unit out of all the indoor units that are connected to the BC controller and 50. When a sub BC controller is connected, the automatic start up function will not be available.

Auxiliary units

BC controller (Sub)

Use the address that equals the sum of the address of the heat source unit in the same refrigerant system and 1.

BC controller (Main)

Choose any number within the range of addresses shown left. However when using with the upper SC setting, or wishing to control the k-control units, set to “0.”

Assign the smallest address to the indoor unit to become the main unit within the same group, and then use sequential numbers to assign an address to all the indoor units in the group. (Note 5) If applicable, set the sub BC controllers in an R2 system in the following order:

(1)

Indoor unit to be connected to the main BC controller

(2)

Indoor unit to be connected to No.1 sub BC controller

(3)

Indoor unit to be connected to No.2 sub BC controller

Set the address so that (1) < (2) < (3)

Assign any unused address after setting all indoor units.

Set to the lowest address of the indoor main unit within the same group + 150.

Set to the lowest No. of the group to be controlled + “200.”

Set to the lowest No. of the group desired to be controlled + “200.”

Choose any number within the range of addresses shown left.

Choose any number within the range of ad-dresses shown left.

Choose any number within the range of addresses shown left.

Set to the lowest address of the indoor main unit within the same group + 100.

(Note 3) When connecting a system controller to the transmission line for centralized control or performing a group operation of units in

different refrigerant systems, the replacement of male power supply switch connector (CN41) must be performed only on one of the heat source units in the system.

(If a model between 34 and 50 HP is included in the system, replace the connector on that unit.)

(Note 1) Do not cut off power to the outdoor (Heat source) unit.

Cutting off the power supply to the outdoor (Heat source) unit will cut off the power supply to the crankcase heater and may

cause the compressor to malfunction when the unit is put back into operation. (Note 2) Not applicable to units with a built-in drain pump or humidifier (Note 3) Models with a built-in drain pump cannot be turned on/off by the plug individually. All the units in the same refrigerant circuits

will be turned on or off by the plug. (Note 4) Requires that the dipswitch settings for all the units in the group be made.

(Note 1) When only the LM adapter is connected, leave SW2-1 to OFF (as it is).

Disconnect the male connector from the female power supply switch connector (CN41) and connect it to the female power supply switch connector (CN40) on only one of the outdoor units. (Note 3) Connect the S (shielded) terminal on the terminal block (TB7) on the outdoor (Heat source) unit whose CN41 was replaced with CN40 to the earth terminal ( ) on the electric box.
