Replacement operation
Test operation
Replacement operation is the operation by which impurities remaining in
the existing piping (chlorinated compounds) are captured by the activated
carbon filter (replacement filter) in the outdoor unit.
• This model will automatically begin the replacement operation after it has been
installed when it enters the initialization phase for normal heating or cooling. However , the unit will not automatically perf orm the replacement operation if it is moved
to a new location where it will be used with existing R22 refrigerant piping. Under
such conditions, always use the SW8-2 operations to perform the replacement
operation before beginning the test operation.
• Precautions when reusing existing R22 refrigerant pipes
(1) Flowchart
Connecting a new air conditioner to existing R22 refrigerant pipes
1 Flare the pipe for the use with R410A refrigerant.
Use the flare nut attached to indoor and outdoor unit of the new air conditioner only.
2 When reusing existing R22 refrigerant pipes of which gas pipe is [28.58mm and, in addition, when the outdoor unit is
installed to lower position than the indoor unit, be sure to change the setting of the DIP SW8-1 on the controller circuit
board of the outdoor unit to ON.
✽ This is to increase the speed of refrigerant passing in the gas pipe so that refrigerant oil can smoothly flow in the system.
• Use a different-diameter joint or brazing for the connection.
3 When reusing standard-size existing R22 refrigerant pipes.
The pipes can be reused with pipe length restriction described on TECHNICAL DATA BOOK (OCS01).

: Tools for other refrigerants can be used under certain conditions.
: Tools for other refrigerants can be used.
New refrigerant R410A is adopted for replacement inverter series. Although the refrigerant piping work for R410Ais same
as for R22, exclusive tools are necessary so as not to mix with different kind of refrigerant. Furthermore as the working
pressure of R410A is 1.6 time higher than that of R22, their sizes of flared sections and flare nuts are different.
1Thickness of pipes
Because the working pressure of R410A is higher compared to R22, be sure to use refrigerant piping with thickness
shown below. (Never use pipes of 0.7mm or below.)
2Dimensions of flare cutting and flare nut
The component molecules in HFC refrigerant are smaller compared to conventional refrigerants. In addition to that,
R410A is a refrigerant, which has higher risk of leakage because of its working pressure higher than that of other refrigerants. Therefore, to enhance airtightness and intensity, flare cutting dimension of copper pipe for R410A have been specified separately from the dimensions for other refrigerants as shown below. The dimension B of flare nut for R410A also
have partly been changed to increase intensity as shown below. Set copper pipe correctly referring to copper pipe flaring
dimensions for R410A below. For 1/2” and 5/8”, the dimension B changes.
Use torque wrench corresponding to each dimension.

CHARGELESS SYSTEM
PRE-CHARGED REFRIGERANT IS SUPPLIED FOR PIPING LENGTH AT SHIPMENT. (Max.30m)
The refrigerant circuit with LEV(Linear Expansion Valve) and accumulator always control the optimal refrigerant level regardless of the length (30m max. and 5m min.) of piping. The additional refrigerant charging work during installation often causes
problems. It is completely eliminated by chargeless system. This unique system improves the quality
and reliability of the work done.It also helps to speed up the installation time.

Good example 2 (Single spot grounding of shield wire)
(Points to notice)
(1) Outside the unit, transmission wires should stay away from electric wires in order to prevent electromagnetic noise from
making an influence on the signal communication. Place them at intervals of more than 5cm. Do not put them in the same
conduit tube.
(2) Terminal block (TB7) for transmission wires should never be connected to 220~240V power supply. If it is connected,
electronic parts on M-NET P.C. board may be burn out.
(3) Use 2-core x 1.25mm2shield wire (CVVS, CPEVS) for the transmission wire. Transmission signals may not be sent or
received normally if different types of transmission wires are put together in the same multi-conductor cable. Never do this
because this may cause a malfunction.
It would be ok if M-NET wire (non-polar, 2-cores) is arranged in addition to the wiring for A-control.
(4) Ground only one of any appliances through M-NET transmission wire (shield wire). Communication error may occur due to
the influence of electromagnetic noise.
If there are more than two grounding spots on the shield wire, noise may enter into the shield wire because the ground
wire and shield wire form one circuit and the electric potential difference occurs due to the impedance difference among
grounding spots. In case of single spot grounding, noise does not enter into the shield wire because the ground wire and
shield wire do not form one circuit.
To avoid communication errors caused by noise, make sure to observe the single spot grounding method described in the
installation manual.
“Ed” error will appear on the LED display of outdoor unit.
“0403” error will appear on the central-control remote controller.

10-3-1. M-NET address setting
In A-control models, M-NET address and refrigerant address should be set only for the outdoor unit. Similar to CITY MULTI
system, there is no need to set the address of outdoor unit and remote controller. To construct a central control system, the
setting of M-NET address should be conducted only upon the outdoor unit. The setting range should be 1 to 50 (the same as
that of the indoor unit in CITY MULTI system), and the address number should be consecutively set in a same group.
Address number can be set by using rotary switches
(SW11 for ones digit and SW12 for tens digit), which
is located on the M-NET P.C. board of outdoor unit.
(Factory setting: all addresses are set to “0”.)
10-3-2. Refrigerant address setting
In case of multiple grouping system (multiple refrigerant circuits in one group), indoor units should be connected by remote
controller wiring (TB5) and the refrigerant address needs to be set. Leave the refrigerant addresses to “00” if the group setting is not conducted. Set the refrigerant address by using DIP SW1-3 to -6 on the outdoor controller circuit board. [Factory
setting: all switches are OFF. (All refrigerant addresses are “00”.)]
10-3-3. Regulations in address settings
In case of multiple grouping system, M-NET and refrigerant address settings should be done as explained in the above
section. Set the lowest number in the group for the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00” as its M-NET address.
w Refrigerant addresses can be overlapped if they are in the different group.
w In group B, M-NET address of the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00” is not set to the minimum in the group. As
“3” is right for this situation, the setting is wrong. Taking group A as a good sample, set the minimum M-NET address in
the group for the outdoor unit whose refrigerant address is “00”.

Perform the following procedures to collect the refrigerant when moving the indoor
unit or the outdoor unit.
1 Before collecting the refrigerant, first make sure that the all of the SW5 DIP switches
for function changes on the control board of the outdoor unit are set to OFF. If all of the
SW5 switches are not set to OFF, record the settings and then set all of the switches
to OFF. Start collecting the refrigerant. After moving the unit to a new location and
completing the test run, set the SW5 switches to the previously recorded settings.
2
Supply power (circuit breaker).
* When power is supplied, make sure that “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED” is not
displayed on the remote controller. If “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED” is displayed, the refrigerant collecting (pump down) cannot be completed normally.
3
After the liquid stop valve is closed, set the SWP switch on the control board of the
outdoor unit to ON. The compressor (outdoor unit) and ventilators (indoor and
outdoor units) start operating and refrigerant collecting operation begins. LED1
and LED2 on the control board of the outdoor unit are lit.
* Set the SWP switch (push-button type) to ON in order to perform refrigerant
collecting operation only when the unit is stopped.
However, refrigerant collecting operation cannot be performed until compressor stops even if the unit is stopped.
Wait 3 minutes until compressor is completely stopped and set the SWP
switch to ON again.
Unit replacement operation
· This model will automatically begin the replacement operation after it has been
installed when it enters the initialization phase for normal heating or cooling. Ho wever , the unit will not automatically perf orm the replacement operation if it is moved
to a new location where it will be used with existing R22 refrigerant piping. Under
such conditions, always use the SW8-2 operations to perform the replacement
operation before beginning the test operation.
Some models can perform the replacement operation only by SW8-2 operation.
Refer to the outdoor unit's Installation Manual for detail.
Replacement operation procedures (When moving the unit and connecting it
to existing R22 piping.)

4 As the unit automatically stops after two or three minutes of refrigerant
collecting operation (LED1 if not lit and LED2 is lit), be sure to quickly
close the gas stop valve.
If the unit stops while both LED1 and LED2 are lit, open the liquid valve
completely, wait three minutes, then repeat the step 3.
* If the refrigerant collecting operation has been completed normally
(LED1 and LED2 are lit), the unit will remain stopped until the power
supply is turned off.
5 Turn off the power supply (circuit breaker).
* Note that when the length of the extension piping is long, it may not be
possible to perform a pump-down operation.When performing the pumpdown operation, make sure that the low pressure is lowered to near
0 MPa (gauge).
(1)Set SW8-2 from ON to OFF. (When ending a replacement operation of less
than 2 hours.)
· Each time SW8-2 is set from OFF to ON, the replacement operation can be
started. Always perf orm the replacement operation for longer than the stipulated time.
Required replacement operation times

(2)The replacement operation will automatically stop after 2 hours. (It will end with
SW8-2 still in the ON position.)
· When the replacement operation has ended automatically after 2 hours of
operation, there is no need to set SW8-2 from ON to OFF; normal air conditioning operations can be started with the SW8-2 being set to ON. However, to repeat the replacement operation, SW8-2 will have to be returned
to OFF and then set to ON.
* If the indoor temperature is below 15:, the compressor will operate
intermittently but the unit is not faulty.

Operation Time
Start and finish of test run
• Operation from the indoor unit
Execute the test run using the installation manual for the indoor unit.
• Operation from the outdoor unit
By using the DIP switch SW4 on the control board of the outdoor unit, test run can be started and finished, and its operation
mode (cooling/heating) can be set up.
1Set the operation mode (cooling/heating) using SW4-2.
2Turn on SW4-1 to start test run with the operation mode set by SW4-2.
3Turn off SW4-1 to finish the test run.
• There may be a faint knocking sound around the machine room after power is supplied, but this is
no problem with product because the linear expansion pipe is just moving to adjust opening pulse.
• There may be a knocking sound around the machine room for several seconds after compressor
starts operating, but this is no problem with product because the check valve, itself, generates the
sound because pressure difference is small in the refrigerant circuit.
Note:
The operation mode cannot be changed by SW4-2 during test run. (To change test run mode, stop the unit by SW4-1,
change the operation mode and restart the test run by SW4-1.)

Actions to be taken for service, which depends on whether or not the inferior phenomenon is reoccurring at service, are summarized in the table below. Check the contents below before investigating details.
12-2. CHECK POINT UNDER TEST RUN
(1) Before test run
• After installation of indoor and outdoor units, piping work and electric wiring work, re-check that there is no refrigerant leak-
age, loosened connections and incorrect polarity.
• Measure impedance between the ground and the power supply terminal block(L, N) on the outdoor unit by 500V Megger and
check that it is 1.0M" or over.
wDon’t use 500V Megger to indoor/outdoor connecting wire terminal block(S1, S2, S3) and remote controller terminal block
(1, 2). This may cause malfunction.
• Make sure that test run switch (SW4) is set to OFF before turning on power supply.
• Turn on power supply 12 hours before test run in order to protect compressor.
• For specific models which requires higher ceiling settings or auto-recovery feature from power failure, make proper changes
of settings referring to the description of “Selection of Functions through Remote Controller”.
Make sure to read operation manual before test run. (Especially items to secure safety.)
