Caution: Describes precautions that must be observed to prevent damage to the unit.

Warning:

• The unit must not be installed by the user. Ask a dealer or an authorized

technician to install the unit. If the unit is installed incorrectly, water leakage, electric shock, or re may result.

• This appliance is intended to be used by expert or trained users in shops, in

light industry and on farms, or for commercial use by lay persons.

• For installation work, follow the instructions in the Installation Manual and

use tools and pipe components specically made for use with R410A refrigerant. The R410A refrigerant in the HFC system is pressurized 1.6 times the pressure of usual refrigerants. If pipe components not designed for R410A refrigerant are used and the unit is not installed correctly, the pipes may burst and cause damage or injuries. In addition, water leakage, electric shock, or re may result.

• The unit must be installed according to the instructions in order to minimize

the risk of damage from earthquakes, typhoons, or strong winds. An incorrectly installed unit may fall down and cause damage or injuries.

• The unit must be securely installed on a structure that can sustain its weight.

If the unit is mounted on an unstable structure, it may fall down and cause damage or injuries.

• If the air conditioner is installed in a small room, measures must be taken to

prevent the refrigerant concentration in the room from exceeding the safety limit in the event of refrigerant leakage. Consult a dealer regarding the appropriate measures to prevent the allowable concentration from being exceeded. Should the refrigerant leak and cause the concentration limit to be exceeded, hazards due to lack of oxygen in the room may result.

• Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during operation. If refrigerant comes

into contact with a ame, poisonous gases will be released.

• All electric work must be performed by a qualied technician according to

local regulations and the instructions given in this manual. The units must be powered by dedicated power lines and the correct voltage and circuit breakers must be used. Power lines with insufcient capacity or incorrect electrical work may result in electric shock or re.

• Use C1220 copper phosphorus, for copper and copper alloy seamless pipes,

to connect the refrigerant pipes. If the pipes are not connected correctly, the unit will not be properly grounded and electric shock may result.

• Use only specied cables for wiring. The wiring connections must be made securely with no tension applied on the terminal connections. Also, never splice the cables for wiring (unless otherwise indicated in this document).

Failure to observe these instructions may result in overheating or a re.

• The terminal block cover panel of the outdoor unit must be rmly attached. If the cover panel is mounted incorrectly and dust and moisture enter the unit, electric shock or re may result.

• The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring regulations.

• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualied persons in order to avoid a hazard.

• When installing or relocating, or servicing the air conditioner, use only the specied refrigerant (R410A) to charge the refrigerant lines. Do not mix it with any other refrigerant and do not allow air to remain in the lines.

If air is mixed with the refrigerant, then it can be the cause of abnormal high

pressure in the refrigerant line, and may result in an explosion and other hazards.

The use of any refrigerant other than that specied for the system will cause

mechanical failure or system malfunction or unit breakdown. In the worst case, this could lead to a serious impediment to securing product safety.

• Use only accessories authorized by Mitsubishi Electric and ask a dealer or an authorized technician to install them. If accessories are incorrectly installed, water leakage, electric shock, or re may result.

• Do not alter the unit. Consult a dealer for repairs. If alterations or repairs are not performed correctly, water leakage, electric shock, or re may result.

• The user should never attempt to repair the unit or transfer it to another location. If the unit is installed incorrectly, water leakage, electric shock, or re may result. If the air conditioner must be repaired or moved, ask a dealer or an authorized technician.

• After installation has been completed, check for refrigerant leaks. If refrigerant leaks into the room and comes into contact with the ame of a heater or portable cooking range, poisonous gases will be released.

1. Safety precautions

1.1. Before installation

Caution:

• Do not use the unit in an unusual environment. If the air conditioner is installed in areas exposed to steam, volatile oil (including machine oil), or sulfuric gas, areas exposed to high salt content such as the seaside, or areas where the unit will be covered by snow, the performance can be signicantly reduced and the internal parts can be damaged.

• Do not install the unit where combustible gases may leak, be produced, ow, or accumulate. If combustible gas accumulates around the unit, re or explosion may result.

• The outdoor unit produces condensation during the heating operation. Make sure to provide drainage around the outdoor unit if such condensation is likely to cause damage.

1.2. Before installation (relocation)

Caution:

• Be extremely careful when transporting the units. Two or more persons are needed to handle the unit, as it weighs 20 kg or more. Do not grasp the packaging bands. Wear protective gloves to remove the unit from the packaging and to move it, as you can injure your hands on the ns or other parts.

• Be sure to safely dispose of the packaging materials. Packaging materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts may cause stabs or other injuries.

• The base and attachments of the outdoor unit must be periodically checked for looseness, cracks or other damage. If such defects are left uncorrected, the unit may fall down and cause damage or injuries.

1.3. Before electric work

Caution:

• Be sure to install circuit breakers. If not installed, electric shock may result.

• For the power lines, use standard cables of sufcient capacity. Otherwise, a short circuit, overheating, or re may result.

• When installing the power lines, do not apply tension to the cables. If the connections are loosened, the cables can snap or break and overheating or re may result.

• When installing the unit in a hospital or communications ofce, be prepared for noise and electronic interference. Inverters, home appliances, high-frequency medical equipment, and radio communications equipment can cause the air conditioner to malfunction or breakdown. The air conditioner may also affect medical equipment, disturbing medical care, and communications equipment, harming the screen display quality.

• Do not clean the air conditioner unit with water. Electric shock may result.

• Tighten all are nuts to specication using a torque wrench. If tightened too much, the are nut can break after an extended period and refrigerant can leak out.

• Be sure to ground the unit. Do not connect the ground wire to gas or water pipes, lightning rods, or telephone grounding lines. If the unit is not properly grounded, electric shock may result.

• Use circuit breakers (ground fault interrupter, isolating switch (+B fuse), and molded case circuit breaker) with the specied capacity. If the circuit breaker capacity is larger than the specied capacity, breakdown or re may result.

1.4. Before starting the test run

Caution:

• Turn on the main power switch more than 12 hours before starting operation. Starting operation just after turning on the power switch can severely damage the internal parts. Keep the main power switch turned on during the operation season.

• Before starting operation, check that all panels, guards and other protective parts are correctly installed. Rotating, hot, or high voltage parts can cause injuries.

• Do not touch any switch with wet hands. Electric shock may result.

1.5. Using R410A refrigerant air conditioners

Caution:

• Use C1220 copper phosphorus, for copper and copper alloy seamless pipes, to connect the refrigerant pipes. Make sure the insides of the pipes are clean and do not contain any harmful contaminants such as sulfuric compounds, oxidants, debris, or dust. Use pipes with the specied thickness. (Refer to

4.1.) Note the following if reusing existing pipes that carried R22 refrigerant.

- Replace the existing are nuts and are the ared sections again.

- Do not use thin pipes. (Refer to 4.1.)

• Store the pipes to be used during installation indoors and keep both ends of the pipes sealed until just before brazing. (Leave elbow joints, etc. in their packaging.) If dust, debris, or moisture enters the refrigerant lines, oil deterioration or compressor breakdown may result.

• Use ester oil, ether oil, alkylbenzene oil (small amount) as the refrigeration oil applied to the ared sections. If mineral oil is mixed in the refrigeration oil, oil deterioration may result.

• Do not touch the refrigerant pipes with bare hands during operation. The refrigerant pipes are hot or cold depending on the condition of the owing refrigerant. If you touch the pipes, burns or frostbite may result.

• After stopping operation, be sure to wait at least ve minutes before turning off the main power switch. Otherwise, water leakage or breakdown may result.

• Do not use refrigerant other than R410A refrigerant. If another refrigerant is used, the chlorine will cause the oil to deteriorate.

• Use the following tools specically designed for use with R410A refrigerant. The following tools are necessary to use R410A refrigerant. Contact your nearest dealer for any questions.

Tools (for R410A)

Gauge manifold Flare tool

Charge hose Size adjustment gauge

Gas leak detector Vacuum pump adapter

Torque wrench Electronic refrigerant charging scale

• Be sure to use the correct tools. If dust, debris, or moisture enters the refrigerant lines, refrigeration oil deterioration may result.

• Do not use a charging cylinder. If a charging cylinder is used, the composition of the refrigerant will change and the efciency will be lowered.

2.2. Choosing the outdoor unit installation location

• Avoid locations exposed to direct sunlight or other sources of heat.

• Select a location from which noise emitted by the unit will not inconvenience neighbors.

• Select a location permitting easy wiring and pipe access to the power source and indoor unit.

• Avoid locations where combustible gases may leak, be produced, ow, or accumulate.

• Note that water may drain from the unit during operation.

• Select a level location that can bear the weight and vibration of the unit.

• Avoid locations where the unit can be covered by snow. In areas where heavy snow fall is anticipated, special precautions such as raising the installation location or installing a hood on the air intake must be taken to prevent the snow from blocking the air intake or blowing directly against it. This can reduce the airow and a malfunction may result.

• Avoid locations exposed to oil, steam, or sulfuric gas.

• Use the transportation handles of the outdoor unit to transport the unit. If the unit is carried from the bottom, hands or ngers may be pinched.

4.2. Connecting pipes (Fig. 4-8)

Fig. 4-1, 4-2 is a sample of piping system.

• Conduct sufcient anti-condensation and insulation work to prevent water dripping from the refrigerant piping. (liquid pipe/gas pipe)

• Increase insulation depending on the environment where the refrigerant piping is installed, or condensation may occur on the surface of the insulation material. (Insulation material Heat-resistant temperature: 120 °C, Thickness: 15 mm or more)

* When the refrigerant piping is used in locations subject to high temperature and

humidity such as in the attic, further addition of insulation may be required.

• To insulate the refrigerant piping, apply heat-resistant polyethylene foam between the indoor unit and insulation material as well as to the net between the insulation material lling all gaps.

(Condensation forming on the piping may result in condensation in the room or

burns when contacting the piping.)

• Be sure to separate thermal insulation for gas and liquid refrigerant pipes.

• The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam insulation materials (specic gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm or more).

• Apply thin layer of refrigerant oil to pipe and joint seating surface before tightening are nut. A

• Use 2 wrenches to tighten piping connections. B

• Use leak detector or soapy water to check for gas leaks after connections are completed.

• Apply refrigerating machine oil over the entire are seat surface. C

• Use the are nuts for the following pipe size. D

Gas side Pipe size (mm) ø12.7 ø15.88 ø15.88

Liquid side Pipe size (mm) ø6.35*1 ø9.52 ø9.52

*1 If the farthest piping length after the rst joint exceeds 30 m, use a pipe size of ø9.52.

• When bending the pipes, be careful not to break them. Bend radius of 100 mm to 150 mm is sufcient.

• Make sure the pipes do not contact the compressor. Abnormal noise or vibration may result.

1 Pipes must be connected starting from the indoor unit. Flare nuts must be tightened with a torque wrench. 2 Flare the liquid pipes and gas pipes and apply a thin layer of refrigeration oil (Ap-

plied on site).

• When usual pipe sealing is used, refer to Table 3 for aring of R410A refrigerant pipes.

The size adjustment gauge can be used to conrm A measurements. * To connect the CONNECTION KIT (PAC-LV11M-J), refer to the installation

manual for the CONNECTION KIT.

4.3. Refrigerant piping (Fig. 4-10)

Remove the service panel D (three screws) and the front piping cover A (two screws) and rear piping cover B (ve screws). 1 Perform refrigerant piping connections for the indoor/outdoor unit when the outdoor

unit’s stop valve is completely closed.

2 Vacuum-purge air from the indoor unit and the connection piping. 3 After connecting the refrigerant pipes, check the connected pipes and the indoor

unit for gas leaks. (Refer to 4.4. Refrigerant pipe airtight testing method)

4 Vacuumize the refrigerant lines through the service port of the liquid and gas stop

valves. And then open the stop valves completely (for both the liquid and gas stop valves). This will completely connect the refrigerant lines of the indoor and outdoor units.

• If the stop valves are left closed and the unit is operated, the compressor and control valves will be damaged.

• Use a leak detector or soapy water to check for gas leaks at the pipe connection sections of the outdoor unit.

• Do not use the refrigerant from the unit to purge air from the refrigerant lines.

• After the valve work is completed, tighten the valve caps to the correct torque: 20 to 25 N·m (200 to 250 kgf·cm).

Failure to replace and tighten the caps may result in refrigerant leakage. In

addition, do not damage the insides of the valve caps as they act as a seal to prevent refrigerant leakage.

5 Use sealant to seal the ends of the thermal insulation around the pipe connection

sections to prevent water from entering the thermal insulation.

4.4. Refrigerant pipe airtight testing method

(1) Connect the testing tools.

• Make sure the stop valves A B are closed and do not open them.

• Add pressure to the refrigerant lines through the service port C of the liquid

stop valve A and the gas stop valve B.

(2) Do not add pressure to the specied pressure all at once; add pressure little by little.

1 Pressurize to 0.5 MPa (5 kgf/cm

pressure does not decrease.

2 Pressurize to 1.5 MPa (15 kgf/cm

pressure does not decrease.

3 Pressurize to 4.15 MPa (41.5 kgf/cm

perature and refrigerant pressure.

(3) If the specied pressure holds for about one day and does not decrease, the pipes

have passed the test and there are no leaks.

• If the surrounding temperature changes by 1°C, the pressure will change by

about 0.01 MPa (0.1 kgf/cm

(4) If the pressure decreases in steps (2) or (3), there is a gas leak. Look for the source

of the gas leak.

4.5. Stop valve opening method

The stop valve opening method varies according to the outdoor unit model. Use the appropriate method to open the stop valves. (1) Gas side (Fig. 4-12)

1 Remove the cap and turn the valve rod counterclockwise as far as it will go with

the use of a 5 mm hexagonal wrench. Stop turning when it hits the stopper. (ø15.88: Approximately 13 revolutions)

2 Make sure that the stop valve is open completely and rotate the cap back to its

original position.

(2) Liquid side (Fig. 4-13)

1 Remove the cap and turn the valve rod counterclockwise as far as it will go with

the use of a 4 mm hexagonal wrench. Stop turning when it hits the stopper.

(ø9.52: Approximately 10 revolutions)

2 Make sure that the stop valve is open completely, push in the handle and rotate

the cap back to its original position.

Refrigerant pipes are protectively wrapped

• The pipes can be protectively wrapped up to a diameter of ø90 before or after connecting the pipes. Cut out the knockout in the pipe cover following the groove and wrap the pipes.

Pipe inlet gap

• Use putty or sealant to seal the pipe inlet around the pipes so that no gaps remain. (If the gaps are not closed, noise may be emitted or water and dust will enter the unit and breakdown may result.)

Warning:

When installing the unit, securely connect the refrigerant pipes before starting the compressor.

Precautions when using the charge valve (Fig. 4-14)

Do not tighten the service port too much when installing it, otherwise, the valve core could be deformed and become loose, causing a gas leak. After positioning section B in the desired direction, turn section A only and tighten it. Do not further tighten sections A and B together after tightening section A.

Fig. 4-14

4.6. Additional refrigerant charge

Additional refrigerant charge

Refrigerant for the extended piping is not included in the outdoor unit when the unit is shipped from the factory. Therefore, charge each refrigerant piping system with additional refrigerant at the installation site. In addition, in order to carry out service, enter the size and length of each liquid pipe and additional refrigerant charge amounts in the spaces provided on the “Refrigerant amount” plate on the outdoor unit.

Calculation of additional refrigerant charge

• Calculate the additional charge using the liquid pipe size and length of the extended piping.

• Calculate the additional refrigerant charge using the procedure shown to the right, and charge with the additional refrigerant.

• For amounts less than 0.1 kg, round up the calculated additional refrigerant charge.

(For example, if the calculated charge is 32.92 kg, round up the charge to 33.0

kg.)

6. Electrical work

6.1. Caution

1 Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related

to electrical equipment, wiring regulations and guidance of each electric power company.

2 Wiring for control (hereinafter referred to as transmission line) shall be (5 cm or

more) apart from power source wiring so that it is not inuenced by electric noise from power source wiring. (Do not insert transmission line and power source wire in the same conduit.)

3 Be sure to provide designated grounding work to outdoor unit. 4 Give some allowance to wiring for electrical part box of indoor and outdoor units,

because the box is sometimes removed at the time of service work.

5 Never connect the main power source to terminal block of transmission line. If

connected, electrical parts will be burnt out.

6 Use 2-core shield cable for transmission line. If transmission lines of different

systems are wired with the same multiplecore cable, the resultant poor transmitting and receiving will cause erroneous operations.

7 Only the transmission line specied should be connected to the terminal block for

outdoor unit transmission.

(Transmission line to be connected with indoor unit : Terminal block TB3 for

transmission line, Other : Terminal block TB7 for centralized control)

Erroneous connection does not allow the system to operate.

8 In case to connect with the upper class controller or to conduct group operation in

different refrigerant systems, the control line for transmission is required between the outdoor units each other.

Connect this control line between the terminal blocks for centralized control. (2-

wire line with no polarity)

When conducting group operation in different refrigerant systems without connect-

ing to the upper class controller, replace the insertion of the short circuit connector

from CN41 of one outdoor unit to CN40. 9 Group is set by operating the remote controller. 0 When connecting the CONNECTION KIT (PAC-LV11M-J) and an M-series indoor

unit, refer to the installation manual for the CONNECTION KIT. 1 When connecting a branch box, be sure to turn on the indoor units and the branch

box before turning on the outdoor unit. 2 Use the strap on the unit to sufciently fasten the cables connected to the termi-

nal blocks. In addition, make sure that the fastened cables and the strap do not

interfere with the panels.

6.2. Control box and connecting position of wiring (Fig. 6-1)

1. Connect the indoor unit transmission line to transmission terminal block (TB3), or

connect the wiring between outdoor units or the wiring with the centralized control

system to the centralized control terminal block (TB7). When using shielded wiring, connect shield ground of the indoor unit transmission

line to the screw (F) and connect shield ground of the line between outdoor units

and the centralized control system transmission line to the shield (S) terminal of

the centralized control terminal block (TB7). In addition, in the case of outdoor

units whose power supply connector CN41 has been replaced by CN40, the shield

terminal (S) of terminal block (TB7) of the centralized control system should also

be connected to the screw (F) using attached lead wire.

2. Conduit mounting plates (ø27) are being provided. Pass the power supply and

transmission wires through the appropriate knock-out holes, then remove the

knock-out piece from the bottom of the terminal block and connect the wires.

3. Fix power source wiring to the terminal block by using buffer bushing for tensile

force (PG connection or the like).

4. The terminal block (TB1B) is for supplying power to the branch box (220

VAC. max 6 A).

Caution: Never connect the transmission line for the indoor unit or the centralized control system transmission line to this terminal block (TB1B). If the transmission lines are connected, the indoor unit or centralized control could be damaged.

Example of a group operation system with multiple outdoor units (Shielding wires and address setting are necessary.)

■ Refer to Fig. 6-6 from Fig. 6-2.

<Wiring Method and Address Settings> a. Always use shielded wire when making connections between the outdoor unit (OC) and the indoor unit (IC), as well for all OC-OC, and IC-IC wiring intervals. b. Use feed wiring to connect terminals M1 and M2 and the ground terminal on the transmission cable terminal block (TB3) of each outdoor unit (OC) to terminals M1, M2

and terminal S on the transmission cable block of the indoor unit (IC).

c. Connect terminals 1 (M1) and 2 (M2) on the transmission cable terminal block of the indoor unit (IC) that has the most recent address within the same group to the terminal

block on the remote controller (RC). d. Connect together terminals M1, M2 and terminal S on the terminal block for centralized control (TB7) for the outdoor unit (OC). e. The jumper connector CN41 on the control panel does not change.

Connect shield ground of the indoor units transmission line to the shield (S) terminal of (TB3) and also connect (S) terminal to the screw (E or F) using attached lead wire.

f. Connect shield ground of the line between outdoor units and the centralized control system transmission line to the shield (S) terminal of (TB7). g. Set the address setting switch as follows.

Unit Range Setting Method

M-IC (Main) 01 to 50 Use the most recent address within the same group of indoor units

M-IC (Sub) 01 to 50

Outdoor unit 51 to 100

M-NET RC (Main) *1 101 to 150 Set at an IC (Main) address within the same group plus 100

M-NET RC (Sub) *1 151 to 200 Set at an IC (Main) address within the same group plus 150

MA RC — Unnecessary address setting (Necessary main/sub setting)

*1 An ME remote controller cannot be connected to a system that contains a branch box.

Use an address, other than that of the IC (Main) from among the units within the same group of indoor units. This must be in sequence with the IC (Main)

Use the most recent address of all the indoor units plus 50 * The address automatically becomes “100” if it is set as “01 - 50”.

h. The group setting operations among the multiple indoor units is done by the remote controller (M-NET RC) after the electrical power has been turned on. <Permissible Lengths>
