3 SAFETY PRECAUTION

3-1. ALWAYS OBSERVE FOR SAFETY

Before obtaining access to terminals, all supply circuits must be disconnected.

3-2. CAUTIONS RELATED TO NEW REFRIGERANT

Cautions for units utilising refrigerant R410A

Use new refrigerant pipes.

Make sure that the inside and outside of refrigerant piping is clean and it has no contamination such as sulfur hazardous for use, oxides, dirt, shaving particles, etc.

In addition, use pipes with specified thickness.

Contamination inside refrigerant piping can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.

Store the piping to be used during installation indoors and keep both ends of the piping sealed until just before brazing. (Leave elbow joints, etc. in their packaging.)

If dirt, dust or moisture enters into refrigerant cycle, that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil or malfunction of compressor.

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

If large amount of mineral oil enters, that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.

Charge refrigerant from liquid phase of gas cylinder.

If the refrigerant is charged from gas phase, composition change may occur in refrigerant and the efficiency will be lowered.

Do not use refrigerant other than R410A.

If other refrigerant (R22 etc.) is used, chlorine in refrigerant can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.

Use a vacuum pump with a reverse flow check valve.

Vacuum pump oil may flow back into refrigerant cycle and that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.

Use the following tools specifically designed for use with R410A refrigerant.

The following tools are necessary to use R410A refrigerant.

 

Tools for R410A

Gauge manifold

 

Flare tool

Charge hose

 

Size adjustment gauge

Gas leak detector

 

Vacuum pump adaptor

Torque wrench

 

Electronic refrigerant

 

 

charging scale

 

 

 

Keep the tools with care.

If dirt, dust or moisture enters into refrigerant cycle, that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil or malfunction of compressor.

Do not use a charging cylinder.

If a charging cylinder is used, the composition of refrigerant will change and the efficiency will be lowered.

Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during operation. If refrigerant comes into contact with a flame, poisonous gases will be released.

[1]Cautions for service

(1)Perform service after collecting the refrigerant left in the unit completely.

(2)Do not release refrigerant in the air.

(3)After completing service, charge the cycle with specified amount of refrigerant.

(4)When performing service, install a filter drier simultaneously. Be sure to use a filter drier for new refrigerant.

3

[2] Additional refrigerant charge

When charging directly from cylinder

·Check that cylinder for R410A on the market is syphon type.

·Charging should be performed with the cylinder of syphon stood vertically. (Refrigerant is charged from liquid phase.)

TRANSMISSION WIRES DC12V

 

NOTES:

 

 

 

 

1. Symbols used in wiring diagram above are,

: Connector,

: Terminal (block).

 

2.Indoor and outdoor connecting wires have polarities, make sure to match terminal numbers (S1, S2, S3) for correct wirings.

3.Since the outdoor side electric wiring may change, be sure to check the outdoor unit electric wiring diagram for servicing.

4.This diagram shows the wiring of Indoor and Outdoor connecting wires (specification of 230V), adopting superimposed system of power and signal.

w1. Use copper supply wires.

[Self-diagnosis]

1.For details on how to operate self-diagnosis with the wireless remote control, refer to the technical manuals etc.

2.For the wired remote control : When you quickly press twice the CHECK switch on the remote control, the unit begins self-diagnosis, and Check Codes generated in the past appear on the display.

For check Codes and Symptoms refer to the table below.
