2-2. CAUTIONS RELATED TO NEW REFRIGERANT
Cautions for units utilizing refrigerant R410A
Use new refrigerant pipes.
In case of using the existing pipes for R22, be careful with
the followings.
· Be sure to perform replacement operation before test run.
· Change flare nut to the one provided with this product.
Use a newly flared pipe.
· Avoid using thin pipes.
Make sure that the inside and outside of refrigerant piping is clean and it has no contaminants
such as sulfur, oxides, dirt, shaving particles, etc,
which are hazard to refrigerant cycle.
In addition, use pipes with specified thickness.
Contamination inside refrigerant piping can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Store the piping to be used indoors during installation, 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.
The refrigerant oil applied to flare and flange
connections must be ester oil, ether oil or
alkylbezene oil in a small amount.
If large amount of mineral oil enters, that 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.
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.
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.
3
Use the specified refrigerant only.
Never use any refrigerant other than that specified.
Doing so may cause a burst, an explosion, or fire when the
unit is being used, serviced, or disposed of.
Correct refrigerant is specified in the manuals and on the
spec labels provided with our products.
We will not be held responsible for mechanical failure,
system malfunction, unit breakdown or accidents caused
by failure to follow the instructions.
[1] Cautions for service
OCH526
(1) Perform service after recovering the refrigerant left in 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.
[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.)

Existing pipes cannot be
reused. Use new pipes.
Connect a new air conditioner.
●The air conditioner automatically performs cooling operation through replace filter for about 2 hours.
Connecting a new air conditioner
Flaring work should be done so that flare meets the dimension for R410A.
Use flare nut provided with indoor and outdoor unit.
When using gas piping of :19.05mm for SHW112, 140.
Make sure that DIP SW8-1 on outdoor unit controller board is set to ON.
This is to keep the pressure on pipes within permissible range.
● Use different diameter joint or adjust the piping size by brazing.
When using pipes larger than specified size for SHW80.
Make sure that DIP SW8-1 on outdoor unit controller board is set to ON.
This is to prevent oil flow ratio from lowering due to the decrease in flowing refrigerant.
● Use different diameter joint or adjust the piping size by brazing.
When existing pipes are specified size.
The pipes can be reused.
● Use different diameter joint or adjust the piping size by brazing.

(2) Cautions for refrigerant piping work
OCH526
New refrigerant R410A is adopted for replacement inverter series. Although the refrigerant piping work for R410A is 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 times higher than that of R22, their sizes of flared sections and flare nuts are different.
1 Thickness 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 0.7 mm or below.)

2 Dimensions 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 its working pressure is higher than that of other refrigerants. Therefore, to enhance airtightness and intensity, flare cutting dimension of copper pipe for R410A has been
specified separately from the dimensions for other refrigerants as shown below. The dimension B of flare nut for R410A
also has 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 inch, the dimension B changes.
Use torque wrench corresponding to each dimension.

8-1. Refrigerant collecting (pump down)
OCH526
Perform the following procedures to collect the refrigerant when moving the indoor unit or the outdoor unit.
1 Supply power (circuit breaker).
* When power is supplied, make sure that “CENTRALLY CONTROLLED” is not displayed on the remote controller. If “CEN-
TRALLY CONTROLLED” is displayed, the refrigerant collecting (pump down) cannot be completed normally.
* Start-up of the indoor-outdoor communication takes about 3 minutes after the power (circuit breaker) is turned on. Start the
pump-down operation 3 to 4 minutes after the power (circuit breaker) is turned ON.
* In the case of multi-units control, before powering on, disconnect the wiring between the master indoor unit and the slave
indoor unit. For more details refer to the installation manual for the indoor unit.
2 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.
* Only set the SWP switch (push-button type) to ON if the unit is stopped. However, even if the unit is stopped and the
SWP switch is set to ON less than 3 minutes after the compressor stops, the refrigerant collecting operation cannot be performed. Wait until compressor has been stopped for 3 minutes and then set the SWP switch to ON again.
3 Because the unit automatically stops in about 2 to 3 minutes when the refrigerant collecting operation is completed (LED1
off, LED2 lit), be sure to quickly close the gas stop valve. If LED1 is lit and LED2 is off and the outdoor unit is stopped,
refrigerant collection is not properly performed. Open the liquid stop valve completely, and then repeat step 2 after 3 minutes have passed.
* If the refrigerant collecting operation has been completed normally (LED1 off, LED2 lit), the unit will remain stopped until the
power supply is turned off.
4 Turn off the power supply (circuit breaker).
* Note that when the extension piping is very long with large refrigerant amount, it may not be possible to perform a pump-
down operation. When performing the pump-down operation, make sure that the low pressure is lowered to near 0 MPa
(gauge).
Warning:
When pumping down the refrigerant, stop the compressor before disconnecting the refrigerant pipes. The compressor
may burst if air etc. get into it.
8-2. Unit replacement operation
When reusing the existing pipes that carried R22 refrigerant for the SW75/100/120 models, replacement operation
must be performed before performing a test run.
1 If new pipes are used, these procedures are not necessary.
2 If existing pipes that carried R22 refrigerant are used for the SW75/100/120 models, these procedures are not necessary.
(The replacement operation cannot be performed.)
3 During replacement operation, “C5” is displayed on “A-Control Service Tool (PAC-SK52ST)”. (This is applied to only
SW75/100/120 models.)
8-3. 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 outdoor unit, test run can be started and finished, and its operation

• 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.)

9-2. 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
leakage, 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.
Do not use 500V Megger to indoor/outdoor connecting wire terminal block (S1, S2, S3) and remote controller terminal block
w
(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 power failure automatic recovery, 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.)

Heating mode: Check if warm air blows. (It takes a little
while until warm air blows.)
Check for correct motion of auto-vanes.
The outdoor unit features automatic capacity control to
provide optimum fan speeds. Therefore, the fan keeps
running at a low speed to meet the current outside air
condition unless it exceeds its available maximum power.
Then, in actuality, the fan may stop or run in the reverse
direction depending on the outside air, but this does not
mean malfunction.
Check if cool air blows and water is drained.
• In case of test run, the OFF timer will be activated, and the test run will automatically stop after 2 hours.
• The room temperature display section shows the pipe temperature of indoor units during the test run.
• Check that all the indoor units are running properly in case of simultaneous twin operation. Malfunctions may not be
displayed regardless of incorrect wiring.
