[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 fe atures 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

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 an d
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 detaile d 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
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 de terioration 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.
iv
[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 t o 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 deter iorate o r 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
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 nitrog en
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 resu lt in perf ormance drop or abnormal stop of operation.
To reduce the risk of power capacity shortage, always use a dedicated power supply
circuit.

1. Storage location
1 Check Before Servicing
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.
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.
1-2-3 Pipe Processing
Use a small amount of ester oil, ether oil, or alkylbenzene to coat flares and flanges.
When processing the severed ends of the pipes, keep the shaving dust out of the pipes to prevent malfunction of the refrigerant
circuit.
Use a minimum amount of oil.
Use only ester oil, ether oil, and alkylbenzene.

[1-2 Handling and Characteristics of Piping Materials, Refrigerant, and Refrigerant Oil ]
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.

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 no inert gas during brazing Use of inert gas during brazing
1 Check Before Servicing
1. Items to be strictly observed
Do not conduct refrigerant piping work outdoors if raining.
Use inert gas during brazing.
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 Check Before Servicing
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
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.)
7. Triple Evacuation
The method below can also be used to evacuate the system.
Evacuate the system to 4,000 microns from both service valves. System manifold gauges must not be used to measure vac-
uum. A micron gauge must be used at all times. Break the vacuum with Nitrogen (N2) into the discharge service valve to 0
PSIG.
Evacuate the system to 1,500 microns from the suction service valve. Break the vacuum with Nitrogen (N2) into the discharge
service valve to 0 PSIG.
Evacuate the system to 500 microns. System must hold the vacuum at 500 microns for a minimum of 1 hour.
Conduct a rise test for a minimum of 30 minutes

liquid
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.)

[1-4 Precautions for Wiring ]
1-4 Precautions for Wiring
Control boxes house high-voltage and high-temperature electrical parts.
They may still remain energized or hot after the power is turned off.
When opening or closing the front cover of the control box, keep out of contact with the internal parts.
Before inspecting the inside of the control box, turn off the power, leave the unit turned off for at least 10 minutes, and check
that the voltage across pins 1 and 5 of connector RYPN has dropped to 20 VDC or less.
It will take approximately 10 minutes until the voltage is discharged after power off.
Disconnect the relay connectors (RYFAN 1 and RYFAN 2) on the outdoor unit fan before performing maintenance work.
On (E)P72, disconnect RYFAN1 only.
Before connecting or disconnecting the connector, check that the outdoor unit fan is stopped and that the voltage across pins
1 and 5 of connector RYPN has dropped to 20 VDC or less.
If the outdoor unit fan is rotated by external forces such as strong winds, the main circuit capacitor can be charged and cause
an electric shock.
Refer to the wiring nameplate for details.
Reconnect the relay connectors (RYFAN 1 and RYFAN 2) after completion of maintenance work.
Before turning on the power, make sure the power-supply wire is properly connected. Also, perform a voltage check at the
power-supply terminal block. (Refer to item (5) in section [6-1 Read before Test Run])
When the power is on, the compressor is energized even while the compressor is stopped.
It is energized to evaporate the liquid refrigerant that has accumulated in the compressor.
Before connecting wiring to TB7, check that the voltage has dropped below 20 VDC.
When a system controller is connected to the centralized control transmission cable to which power is supplied from the out-
door unit (power jumper on the outdoor unit is connected to CN40), be aware that power can be supplied to the centralized
control transmission and the system controller may detect an error and send an error notice if the outdoor unit fan is rotated
by external forces, such as strong winds, even when power to the outdoor unit is turned off.
When replacing the internal electrical components of the control box, tighten the screws to the recommended tightening
torque as specified below.
Recommended tightening torque for the internal electrical components of the control box

1 When replacing semiconductor modules (e.g., INV board, fan board), apply heatsink silicone evenly to the semiconductor
module on the back of the circuit board. Next, tighten the screws holding the semiconductor module to one-third of the
specified torque, and then tighten the screws to the specified torque.
2 Deviating from the recommended tightening torque may cause damage to the unit or its parts.
Take the following steps to ensure that the screws are properly tightened.
1) Ensure that the spring washers are parallel to the terminal block.
Even if the tightening torque is observed, if the washers are not parallel to the terminal block, then the semiconductor module
is not installed properly.
Loose screws
Proper installation
Spring washers are parallel to

[1-4 Precautions for Wiring ]
2) Check the wires are securely fastened to the screw terminals.
Screw the screws straight down so as not to damage the screw threads.
Hold the two round terminals back to back to ensure that the screw will screw down straight.
After tightening the screw, mark a line through the screw head, washer, and terminals with a permanent marker.
Example
Mark a line.

1-5 Cautionary notes on installation environment and
maintenance
Salt-resistant unit is resistant to salt corrosion, but not salt-proof. Please note the following when
installing and maintaining outdoor units in marine atmosphere.
1) Install the salt-resistant unit out of direct exposure to sea breeze, and minimize the exposure to salt water mist.
2) Avoid installing a sun shade over the outdoor unit, so that rain will wash away salt deposits off the unit.
3) Install the unit horizontally to ensure proper water drainage from the base of the unit. Accumulation of water in the base of the
outdoor unit will significantly accelerate corrosion.
4) Periodically wash salt deposits off the unit, especially when the unit is installed in a coastal area.
5) Repair all noticeable scratches after installation and during maintenance.
6) Periodically check the unit, and apply anti-rust agent and replace corroded parts as necessary.

(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 cable. Doing so will damage the electronic components on the terminal block.
6) Use 2-core shielded cables as transmission cables.
Do not use a single multiple-core cable to connect indoor units that belong to different refrigerant systems. Doing so may result
in signal transmission errors and malfunctions..
