[1] General Precautions

General Precautions

Do not use refrigerant other than the type in­dicated in the manuals provided with the unit and on the nameplate. Doing so may cause the unit or pipes to burst, or result in explosion or fire during use, during repair, or at the time of disposal of the unit. It may also be in violation of applicable laws. MIT­SUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATION cannot be held responsible for malfunctions or ac­cidents resulting from the use of the wrong type of refrigerant.
Do not install the unit in a place where large amounts of oil, steam, organic solvents, or corrosive gases, such as sulfuric gas, are present or where acidic/alkaline solutions or sprays containing sulfur are used fre­quently. These substances can compro­mise the performance of the unit or cause certain components of the unit to corrode, which can result in refrigerant leakage, wa­ter leakage, injury, electric shock, malfunc­tions, smoke, or fire.
Do not try to defeat the safety features of the unit or make unauthorized setting changes. Forcing the unit to operate the unit by de­feating the safety features of the devices such as the pressure switch or the tempera­ture switch, making unauthorized changes to the switch settings, or using accessories other than the ones recommended by Mit­subishi Electric may result in smoke, fire, or explosion.
To reduce the risk of shorting, current leak­age, electric shock, malfunctions, smoke, or fire, do not splash water on electric parts.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, mal­functions, smoke or fire, do not operate the switches/buttons or touch other electrical parts with wet hands.
To reduce the risk of pipe burst and explo­sion, do not allow gas refrigerant and refrig­erant oil to be trapped in the refrigerant circuit.
To reduce the risk of burns or frost bites, do not touch the refrigerant pipes or refrigerant circuit components with bare hands during and immediately after operation.
To reduce the risk of burns, do not touch any electrical parts with bare hands during or immediately after stopping operation.
To reduce the risk of injury from falling tools, keep children away while installing, inspecting, or repairing the unit.
Keep the space well ventilated. Refrigerant can displace air and cause oxygen starva­tion. If leaked refrigerant comes in contact with a heat source, toxic gas may be gener­ated.

Always replace a fuse with one with the cor­rect current rating. The use of improperly rated fuses or a substitution of fuses with steel or copper wire may result in bursting, fire or explosion.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, smoke, and fire due to infiltration of dust and water, properly install all required covers and pan­els on the terminal box and control box.
To reduce the risk of injury from units falling or falling over, periodically check the instal­lation base for damage.
Consult an authorized agency for the proper disposal of the unit. Refrigerant oil and re­frigerant that may be left in the unit pose a risk of fire, explosion, or environmental pol­lution.
To reduce the risk of being caught in rotat­ing parts, electric shock, and burns, do not operate the unit without all required panels and guards being installed.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not sit, stand, or place objects on the unit.
To reduce the risk of water leakage and mal­functions, do not turn off the power immedi­ately after stopping operation. Leave the unit turned on for at least 5 minutes before turning off the power.
Do not install the unit over things that are vulnerable to water damage from condensa­tion dripping.
To reduce the risk of injury, electric shock, and malfunctions, do not touch or allow ca­bles to come in contact with the edges of components.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not touch the heat exchanger fins or sharp edges of com­ponents with bare hands.
[2] Transportation and Installation
Always wear protective gears when touch­ing electrical components on the unit. Sev­eral minutes after the power is switched off, residual voltage may still cause electric shock.
To reduce the risk of electric shock and burns, always wear protective gear when working on units.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not insert fin­gers or foreign objects into air inlet/outlet grills. If the unit is left on a damaged base, it may fall and cause injury.
To reduce the risk of injury, always wear protective gear when working on units.
Do not release refrigerant into the atmo­sphere. Collect and reuse the refrigerant, or have it properly disposed of by an autho­rized agency. Refrigerant poses environ­mental hazards if released into the air.

Transportation and Installation

Lift the unit by placing the slings at desig­nated locations. Support the outdoor unit securely at four points to keep it from slip­ping and sliding. If the unit is not properly supported, it may fall and cause personal injury.

[3] Installation

Installation

Do not install the unit where there is a risk of leaking flammable gas.
If flammable gas accumulates around the unit, it may ignite and cause a fire or explo­sion.
To reduce the risk of injury from coming in contact with units, install units where they are not accessible to people other than maintenance personnel.
To reduce the risk of injury, properly dis­pose of the packing materials so that chil­dren will not play with them.
Properly dispose of the packing materials. Plastic bags pose suffocation hazard to children.
All drainage work should be performed by the dealer or qualified personnel according to the instructions detailed in the Installa­tion Manual. Improper drainage work may cause water leakage and resultant damage to the furnishings.
Remove packing materials from the unit be­fore operating the unit. Note that some ac­cessories may be taped to the unit. Properly install all accessories that are required. Fail­ing to remove the packing materials or fail­ing to install required accessories may result in refrigerant leakage, oxygen depri­vation, smoke, or fire.
Consult your dealer and take appropriate measures to safeguard against refrigerant leakage and resultant oxygen starvation. An installation of a refrigerant gas detector is recommended.
Any additional parts must be installed by the dealer or qualified personnel. Only use the parts specified by Mitsubishi Electric. Installation by unauthorized personnel or use of unauthorized parts or accessories may result in water leakage, electric shock, or fire.
Take appropriate safety measures against wind gusts and earthquakes to prevent the unit from toppling over and causing injury.
Do not install the unit over things that are vulnerable to water damage. Provide an ad­equate collective drainage system for the drain water from unit as necessary.
To reduce the risk of damage to the unit and resultant electric leak and electric shock, keep small animals, snow, and rain water from entering the unit by closing the gap in the pipe and wire access holes.
[4] Piping Work

Piping Work

To reduce the risk of injury, including frost bites, that may result from being blasted with refrigerant, use caution when operat­ing the refrigerant service valve. If refriger­ant leaks out and comes in contact with an open flame, toxic gases may be generated.
To reduce the risk of injury from units falling or falling over, install the unit on a surface that is strong enough to support its weight.
To reduce the risk of rain water or drain wa­ter from entering the room and damaging the interior, drainage work must be per­formed by your dealer or qualified person­nel according to the instructions detailed in the Installation Manual.
To reduce the risk of refrigerant catching fire and causing burns, remove the refriger­ant gas and the residual refrigerant oil in the pipes before heating them.
iii
Page 5
To reduce the risk of pipe damage, refriger­ant leakage, and oxygen deprivation, use pipes that meet the pipe thickness specifi­cations, which vary by the type of refriger­ant used, pipe diameter, and pipe material.
To reduce the risk of pipe burst or explo­sion, evacuate the refrigerant circuit using a vacuum pump, and do not purge the system with refrigerant.
To reduce the risk of explosion and deterio­ration of refrigerant oil caused by chloride, do not use oxygen, flammable gas, or refrig­erant that contains chloride as a pressuriz­ing gas.
To prevent explosion, do not heat the unit with refrigerant gas in the refrigerant circuit.
To reduce the risk of oxygen deprivation and gas poisoning, check for gas leakage and keep fire sources away.
Insulate pipe connections after completing the air tightness test. Performing an air tightness test with the pipe being insulated may lead to failure to detect refrigerant leak­age and cause oxygen deprivation.
To reduce the risk of pipe damage and re­sultant refrigerant leakage and oxygen de­privation, keep the field-installed pipes out of contact with the edges of components.
To reduce the risk of pipe bursting and ex­plosion due to abnormal pressure rise, do not allow any substances other than R410A (such as air) to enter the refrigerant circuit.
[5] Wiring Work

Wiring Work

To reduce the risk of wire breakage, over­heating, smoke, and fire, keep undue force from being applied to the wires.
To reduce the risk of wire breakage, over­heating, smoke, or fire, properly secure the cables in place and provide adequate slack in the cables so as not to stress the termi­nals.
All electric work must be performed by a qualified electrician according to the local regulations, standards, and the instructions detailed in the Installation Manual. Capacity shortage to the power supply circuit or im­proper installation may result in malfunc­tion, electric shock, smoke, or fire.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, smoke, or fire, install an inverter circuit breaker on the power supply to each unit.
To keep the ceiling and floor from getting wet due to condensation, properly insulate the pipes.
Use properly rated breakers and fuses (in­verter circuit breaker, local switch <switch + fuse>, no-fuse breaker). The use of a break­er with a breaking capacity greater than the specified capacity may cause electric shock, malfunctions, smoke, or fire.
To reduce the risk of current leakage, over­heating, smoke, or fire, use properly rated cables with adequate current carrying ca­pacity.
Proper grounding must be provided by a li­censed electrician.
Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning rod, or telephone wire. Improper grounding may result in electric shock, smoke, fire, or malfunction due to electrical noise interference.
To reduce the risk of current leakage, wire breakage, smoke, or fire, keep the wiring out of contact with the refrigerant pipes and other parts, especially sharp edges.

[6] Relocation and Repairs

Relocation and Repairs

To reduce the risk of refrigerant leakage, water leakage, injury, electric shock, and fire, units should only be moved or repaired by your dealer or qualified personnel.
To reduce the risk of wire shorting, electric shock, malfunctions, or fire, keep circuit boards dust free, and do not touch them with your hands or tools.
[7] Additional Precautions

Additional Precautions

To avoid damage to the unit, use appropri­ate tools to install, inspect, or repair the unit.
To reduce the risk or malfunction, turn on the power at least 12 hours before starting operation, and leave the power turned on throughout the operating season.
Recover all refrigerant in the units, and dis­pose of it properly according to any applica­ble laws and regulations.
Provide a maintenance access to allow for the inspection of pipes above the ceiling or the buried pipes.
Take appropriate measures against electri­cal noise interference when installing the air conditioners in hospitals or facilities with radio communication capabilities. Inverter, high-frequency medical, or wireless com­munication equipment as well as power generators may cause the air conditioning system to malfunction. Air conditioning system may also adversely affect the opera­tion of these types of equipment by creating electrical noise.
To reduce the risk of damage to the unit, leave the valves on the unit closed until re­frigerant charging is completed.
Place a wet towel on the refrigerant service valve before brazing the pipes to keep its temperature from rising above 120ºC and damaging the surrounding equipment.
To reduce the risk of wire shorting, electric leak, electric shock, smoke, or fire, do not perform maintenance work in the rain.
To reduce the risk of injury, electric shock, and fire, properly reinstall all removed com­ponents after completing repair work.
To reduce the risk of refrigerant and water leakage, check the pipe supports and insu­lation for damage during inspection or re­pair, and replace or repair the ones that are found to be deteriorated.
Direct the blazing torch flame away from the adjacent cables and sheet metal to keep them from being overheated and damaged.
Prepare tools for exclusive use with R410A. Do not use the following tools if they have been used with the conventional refrigerant (R22): gauge manifold, charging hose, re­frigerant leak detector, check valve, refrig­erant charge spout, vacuum gauge, and refrigerant recovery equipment. R410A does not contain chloride, so leak detectors for use with older types of refrigerants will not detect an R410A leak. Infiltration of the residual refrigerant, refrigerant oil, or water on these tools may cause the refrigerant oil in the new system to deteriorate or damage the compressor.
To reduce the risk of the vacuum pump oil backflowing into the refrigerant cycle and causing the refrigerant oil to deteriorate, use a vacuum pump with a check valve.
Have a set of tools for exclusive use with R410A. Consult your nearest Mitsubishi Electric Dealer.
Keep dust, dirt, and water off charging hose and flare tool. Infiltration of dust, dirt, or wa­ter into the refrigerant circuit may cause the refrigerant oil to deteriorate or damage the compressor.
v
Page 7
Use refrigerant piping and couplings that meet the applicable standards. For refriger­ant pipes, use pipes made of phosphorus deoxidized copper. Keep the inner and out­er surfaces of pipes and couplings clean and free of such contaminants as sulfur, ox­ides, dust, dirt, shaving particles, oil, and moisture. Failure to follow these directions may result in the deterioration of refrigerant oil or compressor damage.
Store the piping materials indoors, and keep both ends of the pipes sealed until im­mediately before brazing. Keep elbows and other joints in plastic bags. Infiltration of dust, dirt, or water into the refrigerant cir­cuit may cause the refrigerant oil to deterio­rate or damage the compressor.
Apply ester oil, ether oil, or a small amount of alkyl benzene to flares and flanges. The use and accidental infiltration of mineral oil into the system may cause the refrigerant oil to deteriorate or damage the compres­sor.
To reduce the risk of both the breaker on the product side and the upstream breaker from tripping and causing problems, split the power supply system or provide protection coordination between the earth leakage breaker and no-fuse breaker.
Have a backup system, if failure of the unit has a potential for causing significant prob­lems or damages.
To reduce the risk of oxidized film from en­tering the refrigerant pipe and causing the refrigerant oil to deteriorate or damaging the compressor, braze pipes under nitrogen purge.
Do not use the existing refrigerant piping. A large amount of chloride that is contained in the residual refrigerant and refrigerant oil in the existing piping may cause the refriger­ant oil in the new unit to deteriorate or dam­age the compressor.
Charge refrigerant in the liquid state. If re­frigerant is charged in the gas phase, the composition of the refrigerant in the cylin­der will change, compromising the unit's performance.
Do not use a charging cylinder. The use of a charging cylinder will change the composi­tion of the refrigerant, compromising the unit's performance.
Charge the system with an appropriate amount of refrigerant in the liquid phase. Refer to the relevant sections in the manu­als to calculate the appropriate amount of refrigerant to be charged. Refrigerant over­charge or undercharge may result in perfor­mance drop or abnormal stop of operation.
To reduce the risk of power capacity short­age, always use a dedicated power supply circuit.

1-2-1 Piping Materials

Do not use the existing piping!
1. Copper pipe materials
O-material (Annealed) Soft copper pipes (annealed copper pipes). They can easily be bent with hands.
1/2H-material (Drawn) Hard copper pipes (straight pipes). They are stronger than the O-material (Annealed)
at the same radial thickness.
The distinction between O-materials (Annealed) and 1/2H-materials (Drawn) is made based on the strength of the pipes them-
selves.
O-materials (Annealed) can easily be bent with hands. 1/2H-materials (Drawn) are considerably stronger than O-material (Annealed) at the same thickness.
2. Types of copper pipes
Maximum working pressure Refrigerant type
3.45 MPa [500psi] R22, R407C etc.
4.30 MPa [624psi] R410A etc.
3. Piping materials/Radial thickness
Use refrigerant pipes made of phosphorus deoxidized copper. The operation pressure of the units that use R410A is higher than that of the units that use R22. Use pipes that have 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.)
Pipe size (mm[in]) Radial thickness (mm) Type
ø6.35 [1/4"] 0.8t
1 Piping Work
ø9.52 [3/8"] 0.8t
ø12.7 [1/2"] 0.8t

ø31.75 [1-1/4"] 1.1t
ø34.93 [1-3/8"] 1.1t
ø41.28 [1-5/8"] 1.2t
The pipes in the system that uses the refrigerant currently on the market are made with O-material (Annealed), even if the
pipe diameter is less than ø19.05 (3/4"). For a system that uses R410A, use pipes that are made with 1/2H-material (Drawn) unless the pipe diameter is at least ø19.05 (3/4") and the radial thickness is at least 1.2t.
The figures in the radial thickness column are based on the Japanese standards and provided only as a reference. Use pipes
that meet the local standards.

1-2-2 Storage of Piping Materials

1. Storage location
Store the pipes to be used indoors. (Warehouse at site or owner's warehouse) If they are left outdoors, dust, dirt, or moisture may infiltrate and contaminate the pipe.
1 Piping Work
2. Sealing the pipe ends
Both ends of the pipes should be sealed until just before brazing. Keep elbow pipes and T-joints in plastic bags.
The new refrigerator oil is 10 times as hygroscopic as the conventional refrigerating machine oil (such as Suniso) and, if not handled with care, could easily introduce moisture into the system. Keep moisture out of the pipes, for it will cause the oil to deteriorate and cause a compressor failure.

Use a small amount of ester oil, ether oil, or alkylbenzene to coat flares and flanges.
Use a minimum amount of oil. Use only ester oil, ether oil, and alkylbenzene.

1-2-4 Characteristics of the New and Conventional Refrigerants

1. Chemical property
As with R22, the new refrigerant (R410A) is low in toxicity and chemically stable nonflammable refrigerant. However, because the specific gravity of vapor refrigerant is greater than that of air, leaked refrigerant in a closed room will accumulate at the bottom of the room and may cause hypoxia. If exposed to an open flame, refrigerant will generate poisonous gases. Do not perform installation or service work in a con­fined area.

2. Refrigerant composition
R410A is a pseudo-azeotropic HFC blend and can almost be handled the same way as a single refrigerant, such as R22. To be safe, however, draw out the refrigerant from the cylinder in the liquid phase. If the refrigerant in the gaseous phase is drawn out, the composition of the remaining refrigerant will change and become unsuitable for use. If the refrigerant leaks out, it may be replenished. The entire refrigerant does not need to be replaced.
3. Pressure characteristics
The pressure in the system using R410A is 1.6 times as great as that in the system using R22.

1-2-5 Refrigerant Oil

1. Refrigerating machine oil in the HFC refrigerant system
HFC type refrigerants use a refrigerating machine oil different from that used in the R22 system. Note that the ester oil used in the system has properties that are different from commercially available ester oil.

R22 Mineral oil
R407C Ester oil
R410A Ester oil
2. Effects of contaminants
*1
Refrigerating machine oil used in the HFC system must be handled with special care to keep contaminants out. The table below shows the effect of contaminants in the refrigerating machine oil on the refrigeration cycle.

1-3 Working with Refrigerant Piping

1-3-1 Pipe Brazing

No changes have been made in the brazing procedures. Perform brazing with special care to keep foreign objects (such as oxide scale, water, and dust) out of the refrigerant system.
Example: Inside the brazed connection
Use of oxidized solder for brazing Use of non-oxidized solder for brazing
1. Items to be strictly observed
Do not conduct refrigerant piping work outdoors if raining.Use non-oxidized solder.Use a brazing material (BCuP-3) that requires no flux when brazing between copper pipes or between a copper pipe and
copper coupling.
If installed refrigerant pipes are not immediately connected to the equipment, then braze and seal both ends.
2. Reasons
The new refrigerating machine oil is 10 times as hygroscopic as the conventional oil and is more likely to cause unit failure if
water infiltrates into the system.
Flux generally contains chloride. Residual flux in the refrigerant circuit will cause sludge to form.
3. Notes
Do not use commercially available antioxidants because they may cause the pipes to corrode or refrigerating machine oil to deteriorate.

[1-3 Working with Refrigerant Piping ]

1-3-2 Air Tightness Test

No changes have been made in the detection method. Note that a refrigerant leak detector for R22 will not detect an R410A leak.
1 Piping Work
Halide torch R22 leakage detector
1. Items to be strictly observed
Pressurize the equipment with nitrogen up to the design pressure (4.15MPa[601psi]), and then judge the equipment's air tight-
ness, taking temperature variations into account.
Refrigerant R410A must be charged in its liquid state (vs. gaseous state).
2. Reasons
Oxygen, if used for an air tightness test, poses a risk of explosion. (Only use nitrogen to check air tightness.)Refrigerant R410A must be charged in its liquid state. If gaseous refrigerant in the cylinder is drawn out first, the composition
of the remaining refrigerant in the cylinder will change and become unsuitable for use.
3. Notes
Procure a leak detector that is specifically designed to detect an HFC leak. A leak detector for R22 will not detect an HFC(R410A) leak.

1-3-3 Vacuum Drying

(Photo1) 15010H (Photo2) 14010
Recommended vacuum gauge: ROBINAIR 14010 Thermistor Vacuum Gauge
1. Vacuum pump with a reverse-flow check valve (Photo1)
To prevent the vacuum pump oil from flowing into the refrigerant circuit during power OFF or power failure, use a vacuum pump with a reverse-flow check valve. A reverse-flow check valve may also be added to the vacuum pump currently in use.
2. Standard of vacuum degree (Photo 2)
Use a vacuum pump that attains 0.5Torr(65Pa) or lower degree of vacuum after 5 minutes of operation, and connect it directly to the vacuum gauge. Use a pump well-maintained with an appropriate lubricant. A poorly maintained vacuum pump may not be able to attain the desired degree of vacuum.
3. Required precision of vacuum gauge
Use a vacuum gauge that registers a vacuum degree of 5Torr(650Pa) and measures at intervals of 1Torr(130Pa). (A recom­mended vacuum gauge is shown in Photo2.) Do not use a commonly used gauge manifold because it cannot register a vacuum degree of 5Torr(650Pa).
4. Evacuation time
After the degree of vacuum has reached 5Torr(650Pa), evacuate for an additional 1 hour. (A thorough vacuum drying re-
moves moisture in the pipes.)
Verify that the vacuum degree has not risen by more than 1Torr(130Pa) 1hour after evacuation. A rise by less than
1Torr(130Pa) is acceptable.
If the vacuum is lost by more than 1Torr(130Pa), conduct evacuation, following the instructions in section 6. Special vacuum
drying.
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 5Torr(650Pa) or lower degree of vacuum cannot be attained after 3 hours of evacuation, it is likely that water has pen-
etrated the system or that there is a leak.
If water infiltrates the system, break the vacuum with nitrogen. Pressurize the system with nitrogen gas to
0.5kgf/cm
2
G(0.05MPa) and evacuate again. Repeat this cycle of pressurizing and evacuation either until the degree of vac-
uum below 5Torr(650Pa) is attained or until the pressure stops rising.
Only use nitrogen gas for vacuum breaking. (The use of oxygen may result in an explosion.)

1. Reasons
R410A is a pseudo-azeotropic HFC blend (boiling point R32=-52°C[-62°F], R125=-49°C[-52°F]) and can almost be handled the same way as a single refrigerant, such as R22. To be safe, however, draw out the refrigerant from the cylinder in the liquid phase. If the refrigerant in the gaseous phase is drawn out, the composition of the remaining refrigerant will change and be­come unsuitable for use.
2. Notes
When using a cylinder with a siphon, refrigerant is charged in the liquid state without the need for turning it upside down. Check the type of the cylinder on the label before use.
If the refrigerant leaks out, it may be replenished. The entire refrigerant does not need to be replaced. (Charge refrigerant in the liquid state.) Refer to the following page(s).[8-11 Measures for Refrigerant Leakage](page 246)

2-2 Types and Maximum Allowable Length of Cables

1. Wiring work
(1) Notes
1) Have all electrical work performed by an authorized electrician according to the local regulations and instructions in this man­ual.
2) Install external transmission cables at least 5cm [1-31/32"] away from the power supply cable to avoid noise interference. (Do not put the control cable and power supply cable in the same conduit tube.)
3) Provide grounding for the outdoor unit as required.
4) Run the cable from the electric box of the indoor or outdoor unit in such way that the box is accessible for servicing.
5) Do not connect power supply wiring to the terminal block for transmission line. Doing so will damage the electronic compo­nents on the terminal block.
6) Use 2-core shielded cables as transmission cables. Use a separate 2-core control cable for each refrigerant system. Do not use a single multiple-core cable to connect indoor
units that belong to different refrigerant systems. The use of a multiple-core cable may result in signal transmission errors and malfunctions.
7) When extending the transmission cable, be sure to extend the shield wire.
(2) Control wiring
Different types of control wiring are used for different systems. Before performing wiring work, refer to the following page(s). [2-7 Example System with an MA Remote Controller](page 30) [2-8 Example System with an ME Remote Controller](page 40) [2-9 Example System with an MA and an ME Remote Controller](page 42)
Types and maximum allowable length of cables
Control lines are categorized into 2 types: transmission line and remote controller line. Use the appropriate type of cables and observe the maximum allowable length specified for a given system. If a given system
has a long transmission line or if a noise source is located near the unit, place the unit away from the noise source to reduce noise interference.

2-4-4 Room Temperature Detection Position Selection

To stop the fan during heating Thermo-OFF (SW1-7 and 1-8 on the indoor units to be set to ON), use the built-in thermistor on the remote controller or an optional thermistor.
1) To use the built-in sensor on the remote controller, set the SW1-1 to ON. (Factory setting: SW1-1 set to "OFF".)
Some models of remote controllers are not equipped with a built-in temperature sensor.
Use the built-in temperature sensor on the indoor unit instead.
When using the built-in sensor on the remote controller, install the remote controller where room temperature can be detected.
(Note) Factory setting for SW1-1 on the indoor unit of the All-Fresh Models is ON.

Automatic restoration after power failure
Operation of the indoor unit when the operation is resumed after the unit was
stopped
Indoor unit will go into operation regardless of its operation status before power off (power failure). (In approx. 5 minutes)
Indoor unit will go into operation if it was in operation when the power was turned off (or cut off due to power failure). (In approx. 5 minutes)
Indoor unit will remain stopped regardless of its operation status before power off (power failure).
*1. Do not cut off power to the outdoor unit. Cutting off the power supply to the outdoor 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. *2. Not applicable to units with a built-in drain pump or humidifier. *3. Models with a built-in drain pump cannot be turned on/off by the plug individually. All the units in the same refrigerant cir-
cuits will be turned on or off by the plug. *4. Requires that the dipswitch settings for all the units in the group be made. *5. To control the external input to and output from the air conditioners with the PLC software for general equipment via the
AG-150A, GB-50ADA, or G(B)-50A, set SW1-9 and SW1-10 to ON. With these settings made, the power start-stop func-
tion becomes disabled. To use the auto recovery function after power failure while these settings are made, set SW1-5 to
ON.

[2-5 Demand Control Overview ]

2-5 Demand Control Overview

(1) General outline of control
Demand control is performed by using the external signal input to the 1-2 and 1-3 pins of CN3D on the outdoor units (OC,
OS1, and OS2).
Between 2 and 12 steps of demand control is possible by setting DIP SW6-8 on the outdoor units (OC, OS1, and OS2).
No Demand control switch
(a) 2 steps(0-100%) OFF OFF OFF OC
(b) 4 steps(0-50-75-100%) ON OFF OFF OC
(c) OFF ON OFF OS1
(d) OFF OFF ON OS2
(e) 8 steps(0-25-38-50-63-75-88-100%) ON ON OFF OC and OS1
(f) ON OFF ON OC and OS2
(g) OFF ON ON OS1 and OS2
(h) 12 steps(0-17-25-34-42-50-59-67-75-
84-92-100%)
*1. Available demand functions
EP200-EP450YKM models (single-outdoor-unit system): 2 and 4 steps shown in the rows (a) and (b) in the table above only. EP400-EP600YSKM models (two-outdoor-unit system OC+OS1): 2-8 steps shown in the rows (a), (b), (c), and (e) in the table above only. EP650-EP900YSKM models (three-outdoor-unit system OC+OS1+OS2): 2-12 steps shown in the rows (a)-(h) in the table above.
*2. External signal is input to CN3D on the outdoor unit whose SW6-8 is set to ON. When SW6-8 is set to OFF on all outdoor
units, the signal is input to the CN3D on the OC. Outdoor units whose SW6-8 is set to ON are selectable in a single refrigerant system.
*3. If wrong sequence of steps are taken, the units may go into the Thermo-OFF (compressor stop) mode.
Ex) When switching from 100% to 50%
(Incorrect) 100% to 0% to 50% : The units may go into the Thermo-OFF mode. (Correct) 100% to 75% to 50%
*4. The percentage of the demand listed in the table above is an approximate value based on the compressor volume and
does not necessarily correspond with the actual capacity.
*5. Notes on using demand control in combination with the low-noise mode
To enable the low-noise mode, it is necessary to short-circuit 1-2 pin of CN3D on the outdoor unit whose SW6-8 is set to OFF. When SW6-8 is set to ON on all outdoor units, the following operations cannot be performed.
Performing 4-step demand in combination with the low-noise operation in a single-outdoor-unit system.Performing 8-step demand in combination with the low-noise operation in a two-outdoor-unit system.Performing 12-step demand in combination with the low-noise operation in a three-outdoor-unit system.

(2) Cautions
1) ME remote controller and MA remote controller can not both be connected to the same group of indoor units.
2) No more than 2 MA remote controllers can be connected to a group of indoor units. It is not possible to connect a pair of PAR-31MAA.
3) Do not connect the terminal blocks (TB5) on the indoor units that are connected to different outdoor units with each other.
4) Replacement of male power jumper connector (CN41) must be performed only on one of the outdoor units.
5) Provide grounding to S terminal on the terminal block for transmission line for centralized control (TB7) on only one of the outdoor units.
6) A transmission booster is required in a system to which more than 32 indoor units (26 units if one or more indoor units of the 200 model or above is connected) are con­nected.
Refer to the DATABOOK for further information about
how many booster units are required for a given system.

(1) Sample control wiring
(2) Cautions
1) ME remote controller and MA remote controller cannot both be connected to the same group of indoor units.
2) No more than 3 ME remote controllers can be connected to a group of indoor units.
3) Do not connect the terminal blocks (TB5) on the indoor units that are connected to different outdoor units with each other.
4) Replacement of male power jumper connector (CN41) must be performed only on one of the outdoor units (not required if power to the transmission line for centralized control is supplied from a controller with a power supply function, such as GB-50ADA).
5) Provide an electrical path to ground for the S terminal on the ter­minal block for centralized control on only one of the outdoor units.
6) A transmission booster must be connected to a system in which the total number of connected indoor units exceeds 20.
7) A transmission booster is required in a system to which more than 16 indoor including one or more indoor units of the 200 model or above are connected.
Refer to the DATABOOK for further information about how
many booster units are required for a given system.
8) When a power supply unit is connected to the transmission line
for centralized control, leave the power jumper connector on CN41 as it is (factory setting).

4-1-1 Outdoor Unit Control Box

1) Exercise caution not to damage the bottom and the front panel of the control box. Damage to these parts affect the water­proof and dust proof properties of the control box and may result in damage to its internal components.
2) Faston terminals have a locking function. Make sure the cable heads are securely locked in place. Press the tab on the ter­minals to remove them.
3) Control box houses high temperature parts. Be well careful even after turning off the power source.
4) Perform the service after disconnecting the outdoor unit fan board connector (CNINV) and the inverter board con-
nector (CN1). To plug or unplug connectors, check that the outdoor unit fan is not rotating and that the voltage of capacitor in the main circuit is 20 VDC or below. The capacitor may collect a charge and cause an electric shock when the outdoor unit fan rotates in windy conditions. Refer to the wiring nameplate for details.
5) To connect wiring to TB7, check that the voltage is 20 VDC or below.
6) Reconnect the connector (CNINV) back to the fan board and reconnect the connector (CN1) back to the inverter board after servicing.
7) When opening or closing the front panel of the control box, do not let it come into contact with any of the internal components. Before inspecting the inside of the control box, turn off the power, keep the unit off for at least 10 minutes, and confirm that the capacitor voltage (inverter main circuit) has dropped to 20 V DC or less. It takes about 10 minutes to discharge electricity after the power supply is turned off.
8) When the power is turned on, the compressor is energized even while it is not operating. Before turning on the power, discon­nect all power supply wires from the compressor terminal block, and measure the insulation resistance of the compressor.

1) To change the settings, set SW6-10 to ON, set SW4, and press and hold SWP01 for 2 seconds or longer (OFFON). LED3 will light up when the switch setting is ON, and lights off when OFF. Use the LED3 display to confirm that the settings are properly made. The settings will need to be set again when the control board is replaced. Write down the settings on the electrical wiring drawing label.
2) A: OC: Only the switch on OC needs to be set for the setting to be effective. B: OC: The switches on both the OC and OS need to be set to the same seeing for the setting to be effective. C: OC: The switches on both the OC and OS need to be set. D: OC: The switch on either the OC or OS needs to be set.
3) For details, refer to the following page(s).[5-2-7 Defrost Operation Control](page 86)

5) Unless otherwise specified, leave the switch to OFF where indicated by "-," which may be set to OFF for a reason.
6) The settings that are configured with SW4 (SW6-10: ON) will automatically be stored on the indoor units that support the new function*. The stored settings will automatically be restored when the outdoor unit control board is replaced.
If none of the connected indoor units supports the new function, no configuration information will be saved. If this is the case, manually record the settings configuration on the control box panel.
*The new function is supported on most units that are manufactured in December of 2012 and later. Depending on the model, this function may be
added on later date. Ask your dealer for further details.

5-2 Outdoor Unit Control

5-2-1 Overview

The outdoor units are designated as OC, OS1 and OS2 in the order of capacity from large to small (if two or more units have
the same capacity, in the order of address from small to large).
The setting of outdoor unit can be verified by using the self-diagnosis switch (SW4).
SW4 (SW6-10:OFF) Display
The unit is designated as the OC: "oc" appears on the display.The unit is designated as OS1: "oS-1" appears on the displayThe unit is designated as OS2: "oS-2" appears on the display.For how to read the SW settings, refer to the following page(s). [9-1-1 How
to Read the LED](page 253)
The OC determines the operation mode and the control mode, and it also communicates with the indoor units.The OS exercises autonomous distributed control (over defrost, error detection, and actuator control etc.) according to the
operation/control mode signals that are sent from the OC.

5-2-2 Rotation Control

At the initial startup, outdoor units start up in the order of "OC, OS1 and OS2." After two or more hours of operation, the startup
sequence changes to "OS1, OS2 and OC" or "OS2, OC and OS1".
Startup sequence rotation is performed while all the indoor units are stopped. (Even after two hours of operation, startup se-
quence rotation is not performed while the compressor is in operation.)
For information about rotation control at initial startup, refer to the following page(s). [5-2-12 Control at Initial Startup](page 89)Performing startup sequence rotation does not change the basic operation of OC and OS. Only startup sequence is changed.Startup sequence of the outdoor units can be checked with the self-diagnosis switch (SW4) on the OC.
SW4 (SW6-10:OFF) Display
OCOS1OS2: "oc" and the OC address appear alternately on the display.OS1OS2OC: "oS-1" and the OS1 address appear alternately on the display.OS2OCOS1: "oS-2" and the OS2 address appear alternately on the display.For how to read the SW settings, refer to the following page(s). [9-1-1 How to Read
the LED](page 253)

5-2-3 Initial Control

When the power is turned on, the initial processing of the microcomputer is given top priority.During the initial processing, control processing of the operation signal is suspended. (The control processing is resumed after
the initial processing is completed. Initial processing involves data processing in the microcomputer and initial setting of each of the LEV opening. This process will take up to 5 minutes.)
During the initial processing, the LED monitor on the outdoor unit's control board displays S/W version refrigerant type
Model and capacity and communication address in turn every second.
5 Control

5-2-4 Startup Control

The upper limit of frequency during the first 3 minutes of the operation is 50 Hz.When the power is turned on, normal operation will start after the initial start-up mode (to be described later) has been com-
pleted (with a restriction on the frequency).

5-2-6 Frequency Control

Depending on the capacity required, the frequency of the compressor is controlled to keep constant evaporation temperature
(0°C [32°F] = 0.71 MPa [103 psi]) during cooling operation, and condensing temperature (49°C [120°F] = 2.88 MPa [418 psi]) during heating operation.
The table below summarizes the operating frequency ranges of the inverter compressor during normal operation.The OS in the multiple-outdoor-unit system operates at the actual compressor frequency value that is calculated by the OS
based on the preliminary compressor frequency value that the OC determines.
Model
Frequency/cooling (Hz) Frequency/heating (Hz)
Max Min Max Min
200 model 52 10 57 10
250 model 65 10 80 10
300 model 74 16 83 16
350 model 95 16 104 16
400 model 97 16 108 16
450 model 111 16 120 16
The maximum frequency during heating operation is affected by the outdoor air temperature to a certain extent.
(1) Pressure limit
The upper limit of high pressure (63HS1) is preset, and when it exceeds the upper limit, the frequency is decreased every 15 seconds.
The actuation pressure is when the high-pressure reading on 63HS1 is 3.58MPa[519psi].
(2) Discharge temperature limit
Discharge temperature (TH4) of the compressor in operation is monitored, and when it exceeds the upper limit, the frequency is decreased every minute.
Operating temperature is 115°C [239°F].
(3) Periodic frequency control
Frequency control other than the ones performed at start-up, upon status change, and for protection is called periodic frequen­cy control (convergent control) and is performed in the following manner.
Periodic control cycle
Periodic control is performed after the following time has passed
30 seconds after either compressor start-up or the completion of defrost operation30 seconds after frequency control based on discharge temperature or pressure limit
The amount of frequency change
The amount of frequency change is controlled to approximate the target value based on the evaporation temperature (Te) and condensing temperature (Tc).

SW4 (915) ON -5ºC -5ºC -5ºC
The defrost cycle will not start if other outdoor units are in the defrost cycle or until a minimum of 10 minutes have passed
since the completion of the last defrost cycle.
If 10 minutes have passed since compressor startup or since the completion of a defrost cycle, a forced defrost cycle can be
started by setting DIP SW4(913) to ON.
Even if the defrost-prohibit timer is set to 90 minutes, the actual defrost-prohibit time for the next defrost cycle is 50 minutes
if the last defrost cycle took 12 minutes.
All units in the heating mode will simultaneously go into the defrost cycle in a system with multiple units. The units that are
not in operation may or may not go into the defrost cycle, depending on the cumulative operation time of their compressors.

5-2-8 Refrigerant Recovery Control

Recovery of refrigerant is performed during heating operation to prevent the refrigerant from accumulating inside the unit while it is stopped (unit in fan mode), or inside the indoor unit that is in cooling mode or in heating mode with thermo off. It is also performed during cooling operation to prevent an excessive amount of refrigerant from accumulating in the outdoor heat ex­changer. It is also performed during cooling operation to prevent an excessive amount of refrigerant from accumulating in the outdoor heat exchanger.
(1) During heating operation
Starting refrigerant recovery mode
The refrigerant recovery mode in heating starts when all of the following three conditions are met:
15 minutes have passed since the completion of previous refrigerant recovery.TH4 > 115°C [239°F]Frequencies below 50 Hz
Refrigerant recovery
1) Refrigerant is recovered with the LEV on the applicable indoor unit (unit under stopping mode, fan mode, cooling, heating with thermo off) being opened for 30 seconds.
2) Periodic capacity control of the outdoor units and periodic LEV control of the indoor units will be suspended during refrigerant recovery operation; they will be performed after the recovery has been completed.
(2) During cooling operation
Starting refrigerant recovery mode
The refrigerant recovery mode starts when all the following conditions are met:
30 minutes have passed since the completion of previous refrigerant recovery.When the unit keeps running for 3 minutes in a row or more with high discharge temperatureTH4 > 105°C [221°F] or 63HS1 > 3.43 MPa [497 psi] (35 kg/cm

5-2-9 Outdoor Unit Fan Control

(1) Control method
Depending on the capacity required, the rotation speed of the outdoor unit fan is controlled by the inverter, targeting a constant
evaporation temperature of (0°C [32°F]= 0.71 MPa [103 psi]) during cooling operation and constant condensing temperature of (49°C [120°F]= 2.88 MPa [418 psi]) during heating operation.
The OS in the multiple-outdoor-unit system operates at the actual outdoor unit fan control value that is calculated by the OS
based on the preliminary outdoor unit fan control value that the OC determines.
(2) Control
Outdoor unit fan stops while the compressor is stopped (except in the presence of input from snow sensor).The fan operates at full speed for 5 seconds after start-up.(Only when TH7<0°C [32°F])The outdoor unit fan stops during defrost operation.On the EP300-EP450 models of outdoor units, before the second fan goes into operation, the capacity of the first fan that
went into operation will be reduced to 50% of its maximum capacity.

5-2-10 Subcool Coil Control (Linear Expansion Valve 1)

The OC, OS1, and OS2 controls the subcool coil individually.The LEV is controlled every 30 seconds to maintain constant the subcool at the outdoor unit heat exchanger outlet that is
calculated from the values of high pressure (63HS1) and liquid piping temperature (TH3), or the superheat that is calculated from the values of low pressure (63LS) and the bypass outlet temperature (TH2) of the subcool coil.
LEV opening is controlled based on the values of the inlet (TH6) and the outlet (TH3) temperatures of the subcool coil, high
pressure (63HS1), and discharge temperature (TH4). In a single-outdoor-unit system, the LEV is closed (0) in the heating mode, while the compressor is stopped, and during cooling Thermo-OFF. In a multiple-outdoor-unit system, the LEV closes (0) during heating operation, while the compressor is stopped, or during cooling Thermo-OFF. The LEV opens to a specified position when 15 minutes have passed after Thermo-OFF. (65 pulses)
During the defrost cycle, normally, the valve initially operates at 0 pulses, although it may operate at higher pulses depending
on the 63LS and TH4 status.

5-2-11 Refrigerant Flow Control (Linear Expansion Valve 2)

Refrigerant flow is controlled by each unit in the combined models during heating. Refrigerant flow control is performed by the
OC, OS1, and OS2 individually. The valve opens to a specified angle during cooling (Opening: 2100 pulses)
Valve opening is controlled based on the values of high pressure (63HS1), discharge temperature (TH4), low pressure(
63LS), and piping temperature (TH5).
The valve moves to the predetermined position while the unit is stopped.The valve opening may increase to 3000 pulses during the defrost cycle or when the units are operated in unusual operating
conditions.

5-2-12 Control at Initial Startup

When started up for the first time before 12 hours have elapsed after power on, the unit goes into the initial startup mode.At the completion of the initial operation mode on the OC, OS1, and OS2, they will go into the normal control mode.
