1.1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

(1) Specific features

The “Mitsubishi Daiya” room air-conditioner: SRK series are of split and wall mounted type and the unit consists of indoor unit and

outdoor unit with refrigerant precharged in factory. The indoor unit is composed of room air cooling or heating equipment with opera-

tion control switch and the outdoor unit is composed of condensing unit with compressor.

(a) Inverter (Frequency converter) for multi-steps power control

¡ Heating/Cooling

The rotational speed of a compressor is changed in step in relation to varying load, interlocked with the indoor and outdoor unit

fans controlled to change frequency, thus controlling the capacity.

¡ Allowing quick heating/cooling operation during start-up period. Constant room temperature by fine-tuned control after the

unit has stabilized.

(b) Fuzzy control

¡ Fuzzy control calculates the amount of variation in the difference between the return air temperature and the setting temperature

in compliance with the fuzzy rules in order to control the air capacity and the inverter frequency.

The flap can be automatically controlled by operating wireless remote control.

¡ Air scroll (AUTO): Flap operation is automatically control.

¡ Swing: This will swing the flap up and down.

¡ Memory flap: Once the flap position is set, the unit memorizes the position and continues to operate at the same position from

the next time.

(d) Self diagnosis function

¡ We are constantly trying to do better service to our customers by installing such judges that show abnormality of operation as

follows.

(4) Custom cord switching procedure

If two wireless remote controls are installed in one room, in order to prevent wrong

operation due to mixed signals, please modify the printed circuit board in the indoor

unit’s control box and the remote control using the following procedure. Be sure to modify

both boards. If only one board is modified, receiving (and operation) cannot be done.

(a) Modifying the indoor unit’s printed circuit board

Take out the printed circuit board from the control box and cut off jumper wire

(J2) using wire cutters.

After cutting of the jumper wire, take measures to prevent contact with the other

the lead wires, etc.

(b) Modifying the wireless remote control

i) Remove the battery.

ii) Cut the jumper wire shown in the figure at right.

(6) Comfortable timer setting

If the timer is set at ON when the operation select switch is set at the cooling or heating, or the cooling or heating in auto mode operation

is selected, the comfortable timer starts and determines the starting time of next operation based on the initial value of 15 minutes and the

relationship between the room temperature at the setting time (temperature of room temperature sensor) and the setting temperature.

(Max. 60 minutes)

Operation mode Operation start time correction value (Min.)

¡ Confirm after the foundation construction work that refrigerant does not leak.

If coming in contact with fire of a fan heater, a stove or movable cooking stove, etc., refrigerant leaking in the room could generate toxic gas.

¡ In joining pipes, do not use conventional (R22) pipng flare nuts, etc. The use of conventional pipng materials may

lead to the rapture of piping due to higher pressure used for the refrigerant cycle and possible personal injury. (Use only piping material designed specifically for R410A)

CAUTION

¡ Execute proper grounding. Do not connect the ground wire to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning rod or a telephone

ground wire. Improper placement of ground wires can result in electric shock.

¡ The installation of an earth leakage breaker is necessary depending on the established location of the unit.

Not installing an earth leakage breaker may result in electric shock.

¡ Do not install the unit where there is a concern about leakage of combustible gas.

The rare even of leaked gas collecting around the unit could result in an outbreak of fire.

¡ For the drain pipe, follow the installation manual to insure that it allows proper drainage and thermally insulate it

to prevent condensation. Inadequate plumbing can result in water leakage and water damage to interior items.

(– 76 cmHg). (iv) After completing vacuum operation, fully open service valve (Both gas and liquid sides) with hexagon headed wrench. (v) Check for possible leakage of gas in the connection parts of both indoor and outdoor.

¡ Since the system uses service ports differing in diameter from those found on the conventional models, a charge hose (for R22)

presently in use is not applicable. Please use one designed specifically for R410A

Please use an anti-reverse flow type vacuum pump adapter so as to prevent vacuum pump oil from running back into the system. Oil running back into an air-conditioning system may cause the refrigerant cycle to break down.

Additional refrigerant charge

When refrigerant piping exceeds 15m conduct additional refrigerant charge by weight after refrigerant piping completion. Additional charge amount per meter = 20g/m

[Example]

How much amount of additional charge for 25m piping? (25 – 15)m × 20g/m = 200g 200g for additional charge

(d) Insulation of connecting portion

(i) Cover the connecting portion of the refrigerant piping with the pipe cover and seal them.

If neglecting to do so, moisture occurs on the piping and water will drip out.

(ii) Finishing and fixing

1) Tie up the piping with wrapping tape, and shape it so that it conforms to which the pipe is attached.

2) Fix them with clamps as right figure.

Cover the exterior portion with covering tape and shape the piping so it will match the contours of the route that the piping to take. Also fix the wiring and pipings to the wall with clamps.

1.1.6 MAINTENANCE DATA

(1) Troubleshooting procedures for electrical equipment

(a) Cautions

1 If you are disassembling and checking an air conditioner, be sure to turn off the power before beginning. When working on

indoor units, let the unit sit for about 1 minute after turning off the power before you begin work. When working on an outdoor

unit, there may be an electrical charge applied to the main circuit (electrolytic condenser), so begin work only after discharging

this electrical charge (to DC 10 V or lower).

2 When taking out printed circuit boards, be sure to do so without exerting force on the circuit boards or package components.

3 When disconnecting and connecting connectors, take hold of the connector housing and do not pull on the lead wires.

(b) Items to check before troubleshooting

1 Have you thoroughly investigated the details of the trouble which the customer is complaining about?

2 Is the air conditioner running? Is it displaying any self-diagnosis information?

3 Is a power supply with the correct voltage connected?

4 Are the control lines connecting the indoor and outdoor units wired correctly and connected securely?

5 Is the outdoor unit’s refrigerant service valve open?

If the air conditioner does not run at all, diagnose the trouble using the following troubleshooting procedure. If the air conditioner

is running but breaks down, proceed to troubleshooting step (d).

Important When all the following conditions are met, we say that the air conditioner will not run at all.

1 The Run light does not light up.

2 The flaps do not open.

3 The indoor unit fan motors do not run.

4 The self-diagnosis display does not function.

YES

Troubleshooting procedure (If the air conditioner does not run at all)

Is the correct voltage connected for the power supply?

With the power off, do the flaps open manually, then close again when the power is turned on?

Is there a reception sound emitted from the unit when it is operated by the remote control?

Replace the indoor unit’s circuit board and perform an operation check.

Make sure the correct voltage is connected, then perform an operation check.

Is the current fuse on the indoor unit’s board blown?

Proceed to the indoor unit circuit board check.

Proceed to the wireless remote control troubleshooting procedure.

If the package components are not damaged, replace the fuse and perform an operation check again.

* If the voltage is correct, it will be

within the following voltage range. 198 ~ 242 V

Page 36

(d) Troubleshooting procedure (If the air conditioner runs)

YES

Note (1) Even in cases where only intermittent stop data are generated, the air conditioning system is normal. However, if the same protective operation recurs

repeatedly (3 or more times), it will lead to customer complaints. Judge the conditions in comparison with the contents of the complaints.

Confirm the contents of the customer complaint.

Check the self-diagnosis display.

Eliminate the cause of the trouble and perform an operation check.

Replace the faulty component, then perform an operation check.

Identify the faulty component by using the check procedure corresponding to the content of the trouble.

The cause of the trouble can be specifically identified.

See page 35.

(2) Servicing

(a) Evacuation

The evacuation is an procedure to purge impurities......noncondensable gas, air, moisture from the refrigerant equipment by using

a vacuum pump. Since the refrigerant R410A is very insoluble in water, even a small amount of moisture left in the refrigerant

equipment will freeze, causing what is called water clogging.

¡ Evacuation procedure

(i) Check to ensure that there is no internal pressure in the unit. If there is an internal pressure, it

should be relieved through the check joint.

(ii) Connect the service hoses of the gauge manifold to the check joint of the gas & liquid piping.

(iii)

Connect a vacuum pump to the charge hose A . Repeat evacuation in the following sequence.

(b) Refrigerant charge

(i) Discharge refrigerant entirely from the unit and evacuate the unit.

Note: Addition of refrigerant without evacuation is unreasonable, because it will result in low charge or overcharge.

(ii) Keep the gauge manifold and connect a refrigerant cylinder to the unit.

(iii) Record the weight of the refrigerant cylinder on the balance. This is necessary for making sure of the charged refrigerant

amount.

(iv)

Purge air from the charge hose A

Firstly loose the connecting portion of the charge hose A at the gauge manihold side and open the valve 3 for a few seconds,

and then immediately retighten it after observing that gas is blow out from the loosened portion.

(v) Open the valve 1 and 3 after discharging air from the charge hose A , then the liquid refrigerant begins flowing from the

cylinder into the unit. Be sure to erect the refrigerant cylinder upright to let liquid refrigerant flow into the unit.

(vi) When refrigerant has been charged into the system to some extent, refrigerant flow becomes stagnant, when that happens,

start the compressor in cooling cycle until the unit is filled with refrigerant to the specified weight.

(vii) Making sure of the refrigerant amount, close the valve 3

(viii) Disconnect the charge hose from the unit. Cover the valve ports of the refrigerant piping with caps and tighten them securely.

(ix) Check for gas leakage applying a gas leak detector along the piping line.

(x) Start the air conditioner and make sure of its operating condition......high side and low side pressures and temperature difference

between suction air and outlet air.

Notes (1) Do not use the refrigerant pressure to expel air.

(2) Do not use the compressor for evacuation. (3) Do not operate the compressor in the vacuum condition.

1.1.7 REFRIGERANT PIPING INSTALLATION/SERVICING MANUAL FOR AIR CONDITIONERS USING R410A

(These materials are extracted from document issued by The Japan Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry Association)

(1) Outline

(a) Refrigerant R410A

(i) Adoption of R410A in air conditioners

In 1974, it was pointed out that the ozone layer in the upper stratosphere (about 20 ~ 40 km above ground) might have been

damaged by the ozone depleting substances such as CFC (chlorofluorocarbon) and HCFC (hydrochlorofluorocarbon). Since that

time, many countries across the world have endeavored to take countermeasures against the ozone depletion.

As a refrigerant belonging to the HCFCs, the conventional refrigerant (R22) used in air conditioners also tends to deplete the ozone

layer. Therefore, complying with the provisions of the international regulations (i.e. Montreal Protocol concerning the Ozone

Depleting Substances) and national laws & Regulations concerned, it is necessary to replace R22 with other types of refrigerant

which do not deplete the ozone layer.

A refrigerant composed of hydrogen (H), fluorine (F) and carbon (C), is called an HFC and does not deplete the ozone layer. One

HFC’s is R410A whose pressure is about 1.6 times higher than R22 and whose energy efficiency is almost comparable to that of

R22 at the same refrigerant temperature.

(ii) Chemical characteristics of R410A

1) Chemical stability

Like R22, R410A is a chemically stable, less toxic and non-flammable refrigerant. However, as in the case of R22, the specific

gravity of its vapour is larger than that of air and should it leak in an airtight room it may stay at a low level and cause an oxygen

starvation accident. It may also, should it come in direct contact with fire, cause a poisonous gas to occur, so be sure to handle

it only in a well ventilated area.

2) Composition changes (Pseudo-azeotropic characteristics)

R410A is a pseudo-azeotropic mixed refrigerant composed of two constituents - R32 and R125. “Quasi-azeotropic” condition

refers to a state in which the dew-point curve and boiling-point curve - gas-liquid equilibrium curves (pressure constant) -

almost lie on top of each other, and a multi-constituent refrigerant having this chemical characteristic incurs less composition

changes even when evaporation (or condensation) as a phase change occurs. Consequently, even when refrigerant leaks from

the gas phase somewhere in the piping installation, the composition of circulated refrigerant incurs less changes.

Therefore, R410A can be treated in almost a same manner as a mono-constituent refrigerant like R22 is treated. When actually

charging R410A, however, do so from the liquid phase side by taking into account the phenomenon that, when put in a

cylinder, the composition changes a little between gas and liquid phases.

3) Pressure characteristics

As shown in Table 2, since R410A’s vapor pressure is about 1.6 times higher than that of R22 at the same temperature, perform

installation/service with special tools and materials which are exclusive for R410A and can withstand high pressure.

(iii) Lubricating oils for R410A

As the lubricating oils for R22, mineral oils, alkylbenze synthetic oils, etc. have so far been used. As R410A features less solubility

with these conventional lubricating oils such as mineral oils, the lubricating oils tend to stay within the refrigeration cycle. As the

lubricating oils highly soluble with R410A, ester, ethereal and other synthetic oils are available. However, as these synthetic oils

are very hygroscopic, they must be treated even more carefully than the conventional lubricating oils. Furthermore, if these syn-

thetic oils are mixed with mineral oils, alkylbenzene synthetic oils, etc., they may deteriorate, and block the capillary tubes, or

cause the compressor to fail. So, never mix these synthetic oils.

(b) Safety during installation/servicing

As R410A’s pressure is about 1.6 times higher than that of R22, improper installation/servicing may cause a serious trouble. By

using tools and materials exclusive for R410A, it is necessary to carry out installation/servicing safely while taking the following

precautions into consideration.

1) Never use refrigerant other than R410A in an air conditioner which is designed to operate with R410A.

2) If a refrigeration gas leakage occurs during installation/servicing, be sure to ventilate fully.

If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire, a poisonous gas may occur.

3) When installing or removing an air conditioner, do not allow air or moisture to remain in the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise,

pressure in the refrigeration cycle may become abnormally high so that a rupture or personal injury may be caused.

4) After completion of installation work, check to make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage.

If the refrigerant gas leaks into the room, coming into contact with fire in the fan driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous

gas may occur.

5) When an air conditioning system charged with a large volume of refrigerant (e.g.multi type air conditioner) is installed in a

small room, it is necessary to exercise care so that, even when refrigerant leaks, its concentration does not exceed the marginal

level.

If the refrigerant gas leakage occurs and its concentration exceeds the marginal level, an oxygen starvation accident may result.

6) Be sure to carry out installation or removal according to the installation manual.

Improper installation may cause refrigeration trouble, water leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.

7) Unauthorized modifications to the air conditioner may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualified air condi-

tioner technician or electrician.

Improper repair’s may result in water leakage, electric shock and fire, etc.

(2) Refrigerant piping installation

(a) Piping materials and joints used

For the refrigerant piping installation, copper pipes and joints are mainly used. Copper pipes and joints suitable for the refrigerant

must be chosen and installed. Furthermore, it is necessary to use clean copper pipes and joints whose interior surfaces are less

affected by contaminants.

(i) Copper pipes

It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes which are made of either copper or copper alloy and it is desirable that the amount of

residual oil is less than 40 mg/10m. Do not use copper pipes having a collapsed, deformed or discolored portion (especially on the

interior surface). Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube may become blocked with contaminants.

As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pressure higher than when using R22, it is necessary to choose adequate materials.

Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in Table 3. Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.8 mm even when it

is available on the market.

(ii) Joints

For copper pipes, flare joints or socket joints are used. Prior to use, be sure to remove all contaminants.

1) Flare joints Flare joints used to connect the copper pipes cannot be used for pipings whose outer diameter exceeds 20 mm. In such a case, socket joints can be used. Sizes of flare pipe ends, flare joint ends and flare nuts are as shown in Tables 5~8 (see on page 48, 49) below. Also, union, half union, Tee-type union and elbow-type union shapes are generally used (see Fig 1).

(b) Processing of piping materials

When performing the refrigerant piping installation, care should be taken to ensure that water or dust does not enter the pipe interior, that no other oil other than lubricating oils used in the installed air conditioner is used, and that refrigerant does not leak. When using lubricating oils in the piping processing, use such lubricating oils whose water content has been removed. When stored, be sure to seal the container with an airtight cap or any other cover. (i) Flare processing procedures and precautions

1) Cutting the pipe By means of a pipe cutter, slowly cut the pipe so that it is not deformed.

2) Removing burrs and chips If the flared section has chips or burrs, refrigerant leakage may occur. Carefully remove all burrs and clean the cut surface before installation.

4) Flare processing

Make certain that a clamp bar and copper pipe have been cleaned.

By means of the clamp bar, perform the flare processing correctly.

Use either a flare tool for R410A or conventional flare tool.

Flare processing dimensions differ according to the type of flare tool. Be careful. When

using a conventional flare tool, be sure to secure “dimension A” by using a gage for size

adjustment.

(ii) Flare connecting procedures and precautions

1) Make sure that the flare and union portions do not have any scar or dust, etc.

2) Correctly align the processed flare surface with the union axis.

3) Tighten the flare with designated torque by means of a torque wrench. The tightening torque for R410A is same as that for

conventional R22. Incidentally, when the torque is weak, the gas leakage may occur. When it is strong, the flare nut may crack

and may be made nonremovable. When choosing the tightening torque, comply with values designated by manufacturers.

Table 9 shows reference values.

Note : When applying oil to the flare surface, be sure to use oil designated by the manufacturer. If any other oil is used, the lubricating oils may deteriorate and

cause the compressor to burn out.

(i) Types and storage of piping materials

Refrigerant piping materials for air conditioners are broadly classified into the following types.

As R410A features pressure about 1.6 times higher than R22, it is necessary to use a copper pipe which has a thickness stated in

Table 3 (see on page 46) and which contains less contaminants. It is necessary to carefully treat/store copper pipes so that they are

not collapsed, deformed or damaged. Due care must also be exercised so that foreign matters such as dust and water do not enter

the pipe interior.

A piping set’s open end is sealed with a cap, etc. When storing it, make sure that it is sealed securely. When storing a cladded

copper pipe or bare copper pipe, securely seal the opening with pinching, taping, etc.

General name : (a) Piping set : (b) Copper pipe with insulation : (c) Bare copper pipe

Page 52

(ii) Identification

1) Piping set

A copper pipe as piping set for R410A must have a thickness as stated in Table 3 (see on page 46), and, as shown in Tables 5

and 6 (see on page 48), it also differs from R22 in flare processing and flare nut dimensions. So, it is necessary to choose a

piping set suitable for R410A.

2) Copper pipe with insulation

Before using a copper pipe with insulation, make sure that it has a thickness designated for R410A.

3) Bare copper pipe

It is necessary to use a bare copper pipe which has a thickness designated in Table 3 (see on page 46) and contains less

contaminants. As the bare copper pipe surface is naked, it is necessary to treat it with exceeding care and adopt a means for

identification to prevent improper usage by making it easily discriminable from other piping materials.

(iii) Precautions before installation

Observe the following precautions when performing the piping connection at the site.

1) Keep any open ends of pipes be sealed with a cap, etc. until connected with the equipment.

2) Exercise great care when performing piping installation on a rainy day.

When water enters into the piping, the lubricating oil may deteriorate and cause the equipment to fail.

3) Carry out the piping connection in as short a time as possible.

If the piping is left open for a long period, fully purge the interior with nitrogen gas or dry it with a vacuum pump.

(d) Brazing

(i) Processing the connected parts

As brazing is molten between the joined surfaces to yield high adhesive strength, it is necessary to secure a wide enough space to

be joined and also an adequate clearance between the joined surfaces. Copper pipe joints’ minimum insertion depths, outer pipe

diameters and clearances between outer and inner pipe diameters are as shown in Table 10. In the case of bronze brazing filler,

when the clearance is about 0.05~0.1mm, the pipes can be connected most strongly.

(ii) Brazing filler metal

1) Alloy brazing filler

An alloy mainly composed of silver and copper is used to join iron, copper or copper alloy. Although it excels in solderability,

it is relatively expensive.

2) Phosphor bronze brazing filler

Phosphor bronze brazing filler is generally used to join copper or copper alloy.

3) Low temperature solder

An alloy of tin and lead. An ordinary type of solder. Since it is weak in adhesive strength, it should not be used for refrigerant

pipe brazing.

* Cautions:

a) BCuP tends to react with sulphur and produce a fragile compound water solution, which may cause a gas leakage. So,

use any other type of brazing filler at a hot spring resort, etc., and coat the surface with a paint.

b) When performing brazing again at the time of servicing, use the same type of brazing filler.

* When joining the pipes, either the pipe ends are processed, or pipes are connected by brazing with a socket joint.

Page 53

(iii) Flux

1) Reasons for the use of flux

• By removing the oxide film and any foreign matter on the metal surface, it assists the flow of brazing filler.

• In the brazing process, it prevents the metal surface from being oxidized.

• By reducing the brazing filler’s surface tension, the brazing filler adheres better to the treated metal.

2) Properties required for flux

• Temperature at which flux is active coincides with the brazing temperature.

• Due to a wide effective temperature range, flux is hard to carbonize.

• It is easy to remove slag after brazing.

• The corrosive action to the treated metal and brazing filler is negligible.

• Excels in coating performance and is harmless to the human body.

As the flux works in a complicated manner as described above, it is necessary to choose an adequate type of flux according to

the type and shape of treated metal, type of brazing filler and brazing method, etc.

3) Types of flux

• Incorruptible flux

Generally, it is a compound of borax and boric acid.

Effective in cases where the brazing temperature is higher than 800°C.

• Activated flux

Most of fluxes generally used for silver brazing fall under this type.

It features an increased oxide film removing capability due to the addition of compounds such as potassium fluoride, potas-

sium chloride and sodium fluoride, to the borax-boric acid compound.

* Cautions:

1 Remove the flux after brazing.

2 When chlorine contained in the flux stays within the pipe, the lubricating oil deteriorates. So, use a flux which does not

contain chlorine.

3 When adding water to the flux, use water which does not contain chlorine (e.g. distilled water or ion-exchange water).

(iv) Brazing

As brazing requires sophisticated techniques and experiences, it must be performed by a qualified person.

In order to prevent the oxide film from occurring in the pipe interior during brazing, it is effective to proceed with brazing while

letting dry nitrogen gas (N

2) flow.

1) Attach a reducing valve to the nitrogen gas cylinder

2) Use a copper pipe to direct the nitrogen gas into the piping, and attach a flowmeter to the nitrogen gas cylinder.

3) Apply a seal onto the clearance between the piping and inserted pipe for the nitrogen gas in order to prevent the nitrogen gas

from flowing backward.

4) When the nitrogen gas is flowing, be sure to keep the piping end open.

5) Adjust the flow rate of nitrogen gas so that it is lower than 0.05m

/h, or 0.02MPa (0.2kgf/cm2) by means of the reducing valve.

6) After taking the steps above, keep the nitrogen gas flowing until the piping cools down to a certain extent (i.e. temperature at

which pipes are touchable with finger).

7) Completely remove the flux after brazing.

* Cautions during brazing

1 General cautions

1) The brazing strength should be high as required.

2) After operation, airtightness should be kept under a pressurized condition.

3) During brazing do not allow component materials to become damaged due to overheating.

4) The refrigerant pipe work should not be come blocked with scale or flux.

5) The brazed part should not restrict the flow in the refrigerant circuit.

6) No corrosion should occur from the brazed part.

2 Prevention of overheating

Due to heating, the interior and exterior surfaces of treated metal may oxidize. Especially, when the interior of the

refrigerant circuit oxidizes due to overheating, scale occurs and stays in the circuit as dust, thus exerting a fatally adverse

effect. So, make brazing at adequate brazing temperature and with a minimum of heating area.

3 Overheating protection

In order to prevent components near the brazed part from overheating damage or quality deterioration due to flame or

heat, take adequate steps for protection such as (1) by shielding with a metal plate, (2) by using a wet cloth, and (3) by

means of heat absorbent.

4 Movement during brazing

Eliminate all vibration during brazing to protect brazed joints from cracking and breakage.

5 Oxidation preventive

In order to improve the brazing efficiency, various types of antioxidant are available on the market. However, the con-

stituents of these are widely varied, and some are anticipated to corrode the piping materials, or adversely affect HFC

refrigerant, lubricating oil, etc. Exercise care when using an oxidation preventive.

(3) Installation, removal and servicing

(a) Tools for R410A

In the case of an air conditioner using R410A, in order to prevent any other refrigerant from being charged accidentally, the service

port diameter of the outdoor unit control valve (3-way valve) has been changed. Also, to increase the pressure resisting strength,

flare processing dimensions and sizes of opposite sides of flare nuts (for copper pipes with nominal diameters 1/2 and 5/8) have

been changed. During installation/service, therefore, prepare tools exclusive for R410A shown in (i) on page 53 and general tools

shown in (ii) on page 54.

(i) Tools exclusive for R410A

1) Gauge manifold

• As R410A is characterized by high pressure, conventional tools cannot be used.

• In order to prevent any other refrigerant from being charged accidentally, each port of the manifold has been changed in

shape.

2) Charge hose

• As R410A is characterized by high pressure, the pressure resistance of the charge hose has been increased. The material has

also been changed to an HFC resistant type, and, as in the case of each port of the manifold, the hose cap size has been

changed. Furthermore, for prevention of gas pressure reaction, a charge hose with a valve placed near the cap is also avail-

able.

3) Electronic balance for refrigerant charging

• As R410A belonging to the HFCs features high pressure and high evaporating speed, when R410A is charged by using a

charging cylinder, R410A in the cylinder cannot be kept in a liquefied state and gasified refrigerant bubbles in the charging

cylinder, it becomes difficult to read values. Therefore, it is advisable to adequately use an electronic balance for refrigerant

charging.

• An electronic balance for refrigerant charging has higher strength due to its structure with four points of support for refrig-

erant cylinder weight detection. As the charge hose connecting part has two ports-one for R22 (7/16 UNF 20 threads per

inch) and the other for R410A (1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch) - it can also be used for charging the conventional refrigerant.

• Two types of electronic balance for refrigerant charging are available - one for 10kg cylinder and the other for 20kg cylinder.

Electronic balance for 10kg cylinder precision ± 2g

Electronic balance for 20kg cylinder precision ± 5g

• Refrigerant is charged manually by opening/closing the valve.

4) Torque wrench (for nominal diameters 1/2 and 5/8)

• Along with changes in flare nut sizes for enhanced pressure resisting strength, torque wrenches for R410A differ in opposite

side size.

5) Flare tool (clutch type)

• A flare tool for R410A is provided with a large clamp bar receiving hole so that the projection of the copper pipe from the

clamp bar can be set at 0~0.5 mm in flare processing, and also features higher spring strength for increased expansion pipe

torque. This flare tool can also be used for R22 copper pipe.

6) Gauge for projection adjustment (used when flare processing is made by using conventional flare tool [clutch type])

•

A gauge 1.0 mm in thickness which helps in easily setting the projection of the copper pipe from the clamp bar at 1.0~1.5 mm.

7) Vacuum pump adapter

• It is necessary to use an adapter for preventing vacuum pump oil from flowing back to the charge hose. The charge hose

connecting part has two ports - one for conventional refrigerant (7/16 UNF 20 threads per inch) and the other for R410A. If

the vacuum pump oil (mineral) mixes with R410A, a sludge may occur and damage the equipment.

8) Refrigerant cylinder

• A refrigerant cylinder exclusive for R410A comes identified with refrigerant name and is coated with pink paint as desig-

nated by the ARI, U.S.A.

9) Charge port and packing for refrigerant cylinder

• According to the charge hose’s cap size, a charge port with 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch and corresponding packing are

required.

10) Gas leakage detector

• A high sensitivity gas leakage detector exclusive for HFC refrigerant is used. In the case of R410A, the detection sensitivity

is about 23g per year.

(b) New installation work (when using new refrigerant piping)

(i) Air purge by vacuum pump and gas leakage inspection (see Fig. 6)

1) Connect the charge hose to the outdoor unit. 1

2) Connect the charge hose to the vacuum pump adapter. 2 At this time, keep the control valves in the fully closed position. 3 4

3) Place the handle Lo in the fully opened position 5, and turn on the vacuum pump’s power switch. During this step, perform evacuating (about 10 ~ 15 minutes); for the evacuating time, refer to the equipment manufacturer’s manual.

4) When the compound gauge’s pointer has indicated -0.1 MPa (-76 cmHg) 6, place the handle Lo in the fully closed position 5, and turn OFF the vacuum pump’s power switch Keep this state for 1~2 minutes, and ascertain that the compound gauge’s pointer does not return.

5) Fully open the control valves. 3 4

6) Detach the charge hoses. 1 2

7) Tightly secure the cap on the service port. 7

8) After securing the caps on the control valves, check the caps’ periphery if there is any gas leakage. 3 4 7

(ii) Additional refrigerant charging required for refrigerant piping length longer than standard length (The following steps should be

taken following the step 5) in (i) above. See Fig. 7)

1) Set the refrigerant cylinder to the electronic balance, and connect the connecting hoses on the cylinder and electronic balance’s connecting port. * Caution:

Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged. When using a cylinder equipped with a siphon, liquid can be charged without turning it upside down.

2) Connect the gauge manifold’s charge hose to the electronic balance’s connecting port. 3 2

3) Open the refrigerant cylinder’s valve, and, after opening the charging valve a little, close it. 1 2

4) After making zero (0) adjustment, open the charging valve and, by opening the gauge manifold’s valve Lo, charge the liquid refrigerant. 2 5 (Before handling the electronic balance, refer to its instruction manual).

5) When the designated amount of refrigerant could not be charged, make additional charging bit by bit by cooling operation (for the amount of each addition, follow the instruction manual prepared by the equipment manufacturer). If the first additional charging was not enough, make the second additional charging after about one minute in the same manner as the first additional charging. * Caution:

Be sure never to charge a large amount of liquid refrigerant at once to the unit in cooling mode, since liquid is charged from the gas side.

6) After charging liquid refrigerant into the air conditioner by closing the charging valve, stop operation by fully closing the gauge manifold’s valve Lo. 2 5

7) Quickly remove the charge hose from the service port. 6

When stopped halfway, refrigerant being cycled will be released.

8) After securing the caps on the service port and control valve, check the caps’ periphery to see if there is any gas leakage. 6 7

(i) Removing the unit

1) Recovery of refrigerant from the outdoor unit by pump down

• At the time of pump down, use a gauge manifold exclusive for R410A.

• Operating the unit in forced cooling mode, recover refrigerant from the outdoor unit.

(For details of reclaiming steps and precautions, see the instruction manual prepared by the equipment manufacturer)

* Caution:

In the case of an outdoor unit which is incapable of pump down, use a refrigerant recovery unit.

2) Removing the indoor/outdoor units

• Remove the piping and wiring between the indoor and outdoor units.

• Tighten the outdoor unit’s control valves and service port with the specified torque.

• Tighten the capped flare nuts at the indoor/outdoor units connecting part with the specified torque.

• Remove the indoor/outdoor units.

* Caution:

When storing the indoor unit piping in its original position, be careful not to break the piping.

(ii) Installing the unit

1) Proceed with the installation following the steps described in “ (b) New installation work”.

(d) Replacing the unit (Never use the existing refrigerant piping)

Use a brand-new refrigerant piping (1) when replacing the air conditioner using the conventional refrigerant (R22) with an air

conditioner using the alternative refrigerant (R410A) or (2) even when replacing the air conditioner using the alternative refrigerant

(R410A) with another air conditioner using R410A, as a problem may occur due to differences in pressure characteristics of refrig-

erant or differences in type of lubricating oil (air conditioners using R410A do not always use the same type of the lubricating oils).

(e) Retrofitting

Do not operate the air conditioner which has used the conventional refrigerant (R22) by charging the alternative refrigerant (R410A).

Otherwise, the equipment may cease to function normally and go wrong, or even cause serious problems such as rupture of the

refrigeration cycle.

operate the equipment to recover refrigerant.

2) During the operation, take care of the following cautions. 1 Ascertain that the refrigerant recovering equipment is running as required and always monitor the state of operation so that

adequate steps can be taken in an emergency.

2 During the operation, remain at work site to ensure safety. 3 If you have to leave your work site for any unavoidable reason, stop the operation after ascertaining that the recovering

cylinder is not overcharged.

3) During the operation, if the refrigerant recovering equipment’s overcharging prevention mechanism operates and the equip-

ment stops automatically, replace the recovering cylinder with an empty one.

4) If the pressure gauge’s reading increases after a short time from the accomplishment of recovery and automatic stoppage of the

refrigerant recovering equipment, restart the equipment and, if it stops again, finish the recovery.

(v) Procedures after recovery

1) Close the valves on the air conditioner subjected to refrigerant recovery, the refrigerant recovering equipment and the recover-

ing cylinder.

2) Detach the recovering cylinder charged with refrigerant and store it as required by law.

(b) Accessories/tools

In order to carry out R410A recovery, a variety of accessories/tools are required.

Shown below are standard accessories.

(i) Recovering cylinder

• Use a recovering cylinder designated by the equipment manufacturer.

• A detachable cylinder must be such that it complies with the laws and regulations concerned.

• Do not use an ordinary cylinder as a recovering cylinder.

Note 1: A cylinder available when R410A was purchased, is a borrowed one.

Note 2: As a cylinder available when R410A was purchased, is provided with a check valve, it cannot be used as a recovering

cylinder.

• Types (by function)

• Caution

It is prohibited by law to recover R410A into a throw-away service can or one-way cylinder.

(ii) Drier

• A desiccant container for removing the water content of R410A.

• A drier should be prepared as expendables.

• Keep the drier sealed just before fitting it.

• Required to protect the R410A recovering equipment.

1.2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

(1) Specific features

The “Mitsubishi Daiya” room air-conditioner: SRK series are of split and wall mounted type and the unit consists of indoor unit and

outdoor unit with refrigerant precharged in factory. The indoor unit is composed of room air cooling or heating equipment with opera-

tion control switch and the outdoor unit is composed of condensing unit with compressor.

(a) Inverter (Frequency converter) for multi-steps power control

¡ Heating/Cooling

The rotational speed of a compressor is changed in step in relation to varying load, to interlock with the indoor and outdoor unit

fans controlled to changes in frequency, thus controlling the power.

¡ Allowing quick heating/cooling operation during start-up period. Constant room temperature by fine-tuned control after the

unit has stabilized.

(b) Fuzzy control

¡ Fuzzy control calculates the amount of variation in the difference between the return air temperature and the setting tempera-

ture in compliance with the fuzzy rules in order to control the air capacity and the inverter frequency.

The Flap & louver can be automatically controlled by operating wireless remote control.

¡Flap swing : The flaps swing up and down successively. ¡Louver swing : The louvers swing left and right successively. ¡Multi-directional Air Flow : Activating both up/down air swing and left/right air swing at the same time results in a multi-

directional air flow.

¡Memory flap : Once the Flap & louver position is set, the unit memorizes the position and continues to operate

at the same position from the next time.

(d) Self diagnosis function

(5) Selection chart

Correct the cooling and heating capacity in accordance with the conditions as follows. The net cooling and heating capacity can be

obtained in the following way.

Net capacity = Capacity shown on specification ✕ Correction factors as follows.

(a) Coefficient of cooling and heating capacity in relation to temperatures

(b) Correction of cooling and heating capacity in relation to one way length of refrigerant piping

It is necessary to correct the cooling and heating capacity in relation to the one way piping length between the indoor and outdoor units.

In additions to the foregoing corrections (a), (b) the heating capacity needs to be adjusted also with respect to the frosting on the outdoor heat exchanger.

How to obtain the cooling and heating capacity

Example : The net cooling capacity of the model SRK22ZEV-S with the piping length of 15m, indoor wet-bulb temperature at 19.0˚C

and outdoor dry-bulb temperature 35˚C is Net cooling capacity = 6300 ✕ 0.975 ✕ 1.0 = 6143W

(4) Custom cord switching procedure

If two wireless remote controls are installed in one room, in order to prevent wrong

operation due to mixed signals, please modify the printed circuit board in the indoor

unit’s control box and the remote control using the following procedure. Be sure to

modify both boards. If only one board is modified, receiving (and operation) cannot

be done.

(a) Modifying the indoor unit’s printed circuit board

Take out the printed circuit board from the control box and cut off jumper wire (J4)

using wire cutters.

After cutting of the jumper wire, take measures to prevent contact with the other the lead wires, etc.

(b) Modifying the wireless remote control

1) Remove the battery.

2) Cut the jumper wire shown in the figure at right.

(5) Flap and louver control

Control the flap and louver by AIRFLOW

 

(UP/DOWN) and



(LEFT/RIGHT) button on the wireless remote control.

(a) (i) Swing flap

Flap moves in upward and downward directions continuously.

(ii) Swing louver

Louver moves in left and right directions continuously.

(iii) When not operating

The flap returns to the position of air flow directly below, when operation has stopped.

(b) Multi-directional Air Flow (up/down air and left/right air scroll)

Activating both up/down air swing and left/right air swing at the same time results in a multi-directional air flow.

Up/down air scroll

Stops at this position for 5 seconds.

In COOL, DRY and FAN operation

When you press the AIRFLOW (UP/DOWN or LEFT/RIGHT) button once while the flap or louver is operating, it stops swinging

at an angle. Since this angle is memorized in the micro-computer, the flap or louver will automatically be set at this angle when the

next operation is started.

(6) Comfortable timer setting

If the timer is set at ON when the operation select switch is set at the cooling or heating, or the cooling or heating in auto mode operation

is selected, the comfortable timer starts and determines the starting time of next operation based on the initial value of 15 minutes and the

relationship between the room temperature at the setting time (temperature of room temperature sensor) and the setting temperature.

(Max. 60 minutes)

Operation mode Operation start time correction value (Min.)

Notes (1) At 5 minutes before the timer ON time, operation starts regardless of the temperature of the room temperature sensor (Th1).

(2) This function does not operate when in the Dry or Auto Dry and FAN mode.

However, the oper ation in item (1) does operate in the Auto Dry and FAN mode.

(3) During the comfortable timer operation, both the RUN light and TIMER light illuminate and the TIMER light goes off after expiration of the timer, ON setting
