OCH512
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 clean the pipes and make sure that the insides
of the pipes are clean.
· 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 both ends of the piping sealed
until just before brazing. (Leave elbow joints, etc.
in their packaging.)
If dirt, dust or moisture enters into refrigerant cycle, that can
cause deterioration of refrigerant oil or malfunction of compressor.
Use 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.
The refrigerant oil applied to flare and flange
connections must be ester oil, ether oil or
alkylbenzene oil in a small amount.
If large amount of mineral oil enters, that can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Charge refrigerant from liquid phase of gas
cylinder.
If the refrigerant is charged from gas phase, composition
change may occur in refrigerant and the efficiency will be
lowered.
Do not use refrigerant other than R410A.
If other refrigerant (R22 etc.) is used, chlorine in refrigerant can cause deterioration of refrigerant oil etc.
Ventilate the room if refrigerant leaks during
operation. If refrigerant comes into contact with
a flame, poisonous gases will be released.
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
OCH512
(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.)

2-3. CAUTIONS FOR REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK
OCH512
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 [7/256 inch] 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 of its working pressure is higher than that of other
refrigerants. Therefore, to enhance air tightness 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.

8-4. M-NET WIRING METHOD
OCH512
(Points to note)
(1) Outside the unit, transmission wires should stay away from electric wires in order to prevent electromagnetic noise from
making an influence on the signal communication. Place them at intervals of more than 5 cm. Do not put them in the same
conduit tube.
(2) Terminal block (TB7) for transmission wires should never be connected to 208/230V power supply. If it is connected,
electronic parts on M-NET P.C. board may burn out.
(3) Use 2-core × 1.25mm² [AWG16] shield wire (CVVS, CPEVS) for the transmission wire. Transmission signals may not be
sent or received normally if different types of transmission wires are put together in the same multi-conductor cable. Never
do this because this may cause a malfunction.

It would be ok if M-NET wire (non-polar, 2-cores) is arranged in addition to the wiring for A-control.
(4) Ground only one of any appliances through M-NET transmission wire (shield wire). Communication error may occur due to
the influence of electromagnetic noise.
“Ed” error will appear on the LED display of outdoor unit.

If there are more than 2 grounding spots on the shield wire, noise may enter into the shield wire because the ground wire
and shield wire form one circuit and the electric potential difference occurs due to the impedance difference among ground-
ing spots. In case of single spot grounding, noise does not enter into the shield wire because the ground wire and shield
wire do not form one circuit.
To avoid communication errors caused by noise, make sure to observe the single spot grounding method described in the
installation manual.

8-4-1. M-NET address setting
In A-control models, M-NET address and refrigerant address should be set only for the outdoor unit. Similar to CITY MULTI
series, there is no need to set the address of outdoor unit and remote controller. To construct a central control system, the
setting of M-NET address should be conducted only upon the outdoor unit. The setting range should be 1 to 50 (the same as
that of the indoor unit in CITY MULTI system), and the address number should be consecutively set in a same group.
Address number can be set by using rotary switches
(SW11 for ones digit and SW12 for tens digit), which
is located on the M-NET board of outdoor unit.
(Initial setting: all addresses are set to “0”.)

1. Refrigerant collecting (pump down)
OCH512
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 “CENTRALLY
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.
2 After the liquid stop valve is closed, set SW1-1 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 SW1-1 to ON if the unit is stopped. However, even if the unit is stopped and SW1-1 is set to ON less than three minutes after
the compressor stops, the refrigerant collecting operation cannot be performed. Wait until compressor has been stopped for three minutes
and then set SW1-1 to ON again.
3 Because the unit automatically stops in about two to three 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 three 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.
Warning:
When pumping down the refrigerant, stop the compressor before disconnecting the refrigerant pipes. The compressor may burst if
air etc. get into it.
2. 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 D.
(2) Do not add pressure to the specified pressure all at once; add pressure little by little.
1 Pressurize to 0.5 MPa (5 kgf/cm²G), wait 5 minutes, and make sure the pressure does not decrease.
2 Pressurize to 1.5 MPa (15 kgf/cm
3 Pressurize to 4.15 MPa (41.5 kgf/cm²G) and measure the surrounding temperature and refrigerant pressure.
(3) If the specified 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 0.03 MPa (0.3 kgf/cm²G). Make the necessary corrections.
(4) If the pressure decreases in steps (2) or (3), there is a gas leak. Look for the source of the gas leak.

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
mode (cooling/heating) can be set up.
1 Set the operation mode (cooling/heating) using SW4-2.
2 Turn on SW4-1 to start test run with the operation mode set by SW4-2.
3 Turn off SW4-1 to finish the test run.
• There may be a faint knocking sound around the machine room after power is supplied, but this is
not a problem with the product because the linear expansion valve 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 not a 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.)

“DEFROST” is displayed on
the screen. (No air comes out
of the unit.)
Check if power is supplied to air conditioner.
Nothing appears on the display unless power is
supplied.
Wait around 3 minutes to restart unit.
The air conditioner is in a state of being protected
by the microprocessor’s directive. Once the
compressor is stopped, the unit cannot be
restarted for 3 minutes. This control is also applied
when the unit is turned on and off by remote
controller or thermostat.
Error code will be displayed if any protection
devices of the air conditioner are actuated.
What is error code?
Wait around 2 minutes.
An automatic startup test will be conducted for
2 minutes when power is supplied to the air
conditioner. “PLEASE WAIT” will be kept being
displayed while that time.
This indicates that it is time to clean the air filters.
Clean the air filters. Press the FILTER button on
the remote controller twice to clear “FILTER” from
the display.
See the operation manual that came with the
product for how to clean the filters.
This is displayed when the unit starts HEAT
operation, when the thermostat puts the
compressor in operation mode, or when the
outdoor unit ends DEFROST operation and
returns to HEAT operation.
The display will automatically disappear around
10 minutes later.
While “STANDBY” is displayed on the remote
controller, the airflow amount will be restricted
because the indoor unit’s heat exchanger is not
fully heated up. In addition to that, the up/down
vane will be automatically set to horizontal blow
in order to prevent cold air from directly blowing
out to human body. The up/down vane will return
to the setting specified by the remote controller
when “STANDBY” is released.
The outdoor unit gets frosted when the outside
temperature is low and the humidity is high.
“DEFROST” indicates the DEFROST operation
is being performed to melt this frost. The
DEFROST operation ends in around 10 minutes
(at most 15 minutes).
During the DEFROST operation, the indoor unit’s
heat exchanger becomes cold, so the blower is
stopped. The up/down vane will be automatically
set to horizontal blow in order to prevent cold air
from directly blowing out to human body. The
display will turn into “STANDBY” when DEFROST
operation ends.
Refer to “SELF-DIAGNOSIS
ACTION TABLE”.
Check if servicing is
required for the error.
Display time of “FILTER”

2 Forced defrost will start by the above operation 1 if all these conditions written below are satisfied.
· Heat mode setting
· 10 minutes have passed since compressor started operating or previous forced defrost finished.
· Pipe temperature is less than or equal to 8°C [46°F].
Forced defrost will finish if certain conditions are satisfied.
Forced defrost can be done if above conditions are satisfied when DIP SW1-1 is changed from OFF to ON.
After DIP SW1-1 is changed from OFF to ON, there is no problem if DIP SW1-1 is left ON or changed to OFF again. This
depends on the service conditions.

(a) Low-level sound priority mode (Local wiring)
Unit enters into Low-level sound priority mode by external signal input setting.
Inputting external signals to the outdoor unit decreases the outdoor unit operation sound 3 to 4 dB lower than that of usual.
Adding a commercial timer or on-off switch contactor setting to the CNDM connector which is optional contactor for demand
input located on the outdoor controller board enables to control compressor operation frequency.
W The performance depends on the load of conditioned outdoor temperature.
