Unit description
The MD 261-351 room air conditioning units have a REMKO MD...AT outdoor component as well as an indoor unit MD...IT.
The outdoor component serves to output the heat extracted by the indoor unit from the room being cooled. In heater operation, the heat taken up by the outdoor component can be discharged by the indoor unit into the room to be heated. In both operating modes, the performance of the compressor is adjusted precisely to the requirement which thereby regulates the set temperature with minimal temperature variation. This "inverter-technology" enables power saving over a conventional split-system and also reduces noise emissions to a particularly low level. The outdoor component can be installed outside or in indoor areas, if certain requirements are met. The indoor unit is designed for the upper wall area in the interior. It is operated via an infrared remote control.
The outdoor component consists of a refrigerant circuit with compressor, fin liquefier, liquefier fan, reverse flow valve and flow regulator. The outdoor component is controlled via the regulation of the indoor unit.
The indoor unit consists of a fin evaporator, evaporator fan, regulation system and condensation pan.
Floor consoles, wall consoles, refrigerant pipes and condensation pumps are available as accessories.

In cooling mode, the air in the room is cooled down to the adjusted nominal temperature. The desired room temperature is set with the ▲/▼buttons in 1 °C increments. If the room temperature is 1 °C above the selected nominal temperature, then the indoor unit starts to cool down the air in the room. The inverter controller checks the difference between the adjusted nominal temperature and the actual room temperature. In the event of a greater difference, a higher cooling performance is created. In the event of a smaller difference, a lower cooling performance is created. This serves to maintain the air discharge temperature and the room temperature. If the adjusted room temperature is lower than approx. 2 °C, then the control system turns the cooling function off. To protect the compressor, the regulation only turns the cooling on again after a waiting period of 3 minutes.

HEATING Mode
In the heating mode, you can heat the room in spring or fall. The desired room temperature is set with the ▲/▼buttons in 1 °C increments. If the room temperature is 1 °C below the selected nominal temperature, then the indoor unit starts to warm up the air in the room. The inverter controller checks the difference between the adjusted nominal temperature and the actual room temperature. In the event of a greater difference, a higher cooling performance is created. In the event of a smaller difference, a lower cooling performance is created. This serves to maintain the air discharge temperature and the room temperature. If the adjusted room temperature is still exceeded by approx. 2 °C, then the control system turns the heating function off. To protect the compressor, the regulation only turns the heater on again after a waiting period of 3 minutes. In heating mode, the indoor unit fan motor is switched on after a delay, in order to prevent the discharge of cold air. The outdoor unit fins could crack at low external temperatures. The reversal of the cooling circuit undertakes defrosting in intervals. The display shows "H1" during the defrosting period.

Installation instructions for qualified personnel
Important points prior to installation
■
Locate the unit in original packaging as close as possible to the installation point to avoid transport damage.
■
Check the contents of the packaging for completeness and check the unit for visible transport damage. Report any damage immediately to your contracting party and the shipping company.
■
Lift the unit at the corners and not on the refrigerant or condensation connections
■
The refrigerant pipes (injection and suction pipe), valves and connections must be insulated impervious to vapour diffusion. If necessary, insulate the condensation pipe also
■
Select an installation location which allows air to freely flow through the inlet and outlet. (See section "Minimum clearances").
■
Do not install the unit in the immediate vicinity of devices with intensive thermal radiation. Installation near sources of thermal radiation reduces the unit output.
■
Open the blocking valves of the refrigerant pipes only after the installation is complete.
■
Seal off open refrigerant pipes with suitable caps or adhesive strips to avoid infiltration of moisture and never kink or compress the refrigerant pipes.
■
Avoid unnecessary bends . This minimises the pressure loss in the refrigerant pipes and ensures that the compressor oil can flow back without obstruction.
■
Make special preparations regarding the oil return if the outdoor unit is located above the indoor unit. (See section "Oil return flow measures").
■
Add refrigerant if the basic length of the refrigerant pipe exceeds 5 metres.
For the quantity of additional refrigerant, refer to chapter "Add refrigerant".
■
Only use the union nuts for the refrigerant pipes provided in the delivery scope, and remove them just shortly before connecting them with the refrigerant pipes.
■
Make all electrical connections according to valid DIN and DE regulations.
■
See electrical connection diagram. Always attach electrical cables properly in electrical clamps. Otherwise a fire could result.
Page 17
Wall openings
17
■
A wall opening of at least 70 mm diameter and 10 mm slope from the inside to the outside must be made for each indoor unit
■
We recommend that the inside of the hole is padded or lined, e.g. using a PVC tube, to prevent the pipes being damaged.
■
After installation, the wall opening should be closed off on the building side with a suitable sealant. Do not use substances containing cement or lime!

Selection of the installation location
Indoor unit
The indoor unit is designed for horizontal wall installation above doors. However, it can also be used on the upper wall area (min. 1.75 m from upper edge of floor).
Outdoor component
The outdoor component is designed for horizontal base installation outdoors. It should be placed on level, flat and firm ground. The unit should also be secured to prevent toppling. The outdoor component can be set up outside as well as inside a building. For external installation, please observe the following notes to protect the unit from weather conditions.
Wind
If the unit is being installed in windy areas, ensure that the warm outlet air discharges in the main wind direction. If this is not the case it may be necessary to install a windbreak (provided by the customer). Ensure that the windbreak does not adversely affect the air intake to the unit.

Condensation pipe
Injection pipe
Installation material
The indoor unit is fastened using a wall bracket and 4 threaded screws (provided by the customer).
The outdoor component is attached with 4 screws via a wall bracket on the wall or a floor bracket on the ground.
Rain
The unit should be at least 10 cm off the ground when mounted on the roof or ground. A floor bracket is optionally available.
Sun
The liquefier on the outdoor component radiates heat. Exposure to direct sunlight will further increase the temperature of the fins and reduce the heat output of the finned heat exchanger. The outdoor component should therefore be installed as near as possible to the north side of the building. If necessary, take measures to provide sufficient shade (responsibility of customer). One possible solution is to build a small roof. These measures should not affect the flow of warm outlet air.
Snow
The unit should be wall-mounted in areas of heavy snowfall.
Installation should be at least 20 cm above the expected level of snow to prevent snow from entering the outdoor component. An optional wall bracket is available as an accessory.

Connection of refrigerant pipes
The on site connection of the refrigerant pipes is made inside the unit.
It may be necessary to fit a reducer or flared adapter to the indoor unit. These fittings are included as standard. Once installed, the connections should be made tight against vapour diffusion.
CAUTION
The units are factory filled with dry nitrogen to check for leaks. The pressurised nitrogen is released when loosening the union nuts.
The following instructions describe the installation of the refrigerant circuit and the assembly of the indoor unit and the outdoor component.
1.
The required pipe diameters are
given in the table "Technical data".
5. Verify that the shape of the flange is correct(Figure 8).
6. First connect and hand-tighten the refrigerant connections to ensure they are correctly seated.
7. Now fully tighten the fittings using 2 suitably sized open­ended spanners. Use one spanner to counter the force when tightening the fitting (Figure 9).
8. Use insulation hoses which are designed for this temperature range and diffusion tight.
9. Lay the refrigerant pipes from the indoor unit to the outdoor component. In doing so, ensure
6 Deburring the refrigerant pipe
Refrigerant pipe
that they are sufficiently
attached and take measures for the oil return, if necessary!
10.
Observe the permitted bending radius for the refrigerant pipes during installation. Never bend a pipe twice in the same place. Brittle pipes and potential cracking are the consequences.
NOTE
Only employ tools and components suitable for refrigeration applications.
11.
Use the wall or floor brackets to fit the outdoor component against structural parts approved to support the static load (refer to the installation instructions for the brackets).
7 Flanging the refrigerant pipe

Ensure that structure-borne sound is not transferred to parts of the building. Use vibration dampers to reduce the effects of structure-borne sound!
13.
Prepare the refrigerant pipe for the outdoor component as described above.
Supplementary information for Installation
■
For the combination of the outdoor component with some indoor units, the connection of the refrigerant pipes may differ. In that case, install the provided reducer or expansion fittings to the indoor unit.
■
If the basic length of the refrigerant pipe exceeds 5 m, add refrigerant when commissioning the system for the first time. (See chapter "Add refrigerant").
Tightness check
Once all the connections have been established, the pressure gauge station is attached as follows to the Schrader valve (if fitted): red = small valve = injection pressure blue = large valve = suction pressure
Once connected, perform a tightness test using dried nitrogen. The tightness test involves spraying a leak detection spray onto the connections. If bubbles are visible, the connections have not been properly made. Re­tighten the connection or prepare a new flange.
If the tightness test is successfully completed, depressurise the refrigerant pipes and start a vacuum pump with an absolute final partial pressure of min. 10 mbar to remove the air in the pipe. Any humidity present in the pipes is also removed.
CAUTION
A vacuum of min. 20 mbar must be created!
The time required to generate the vacuum is dependent on the pipework volume of the indoor unit and the length of the refrigerant pipes. This always takes at least 60 minutes. Once any foreign gases and humidity have been completely extracted from the system, the valves on the pressure gauge station are closed and the valves on the outdoor component are opened as described in the chapter on "Commissioning".

Condensation connection
Due to the dew point shortfall, condensation forms on the evaporator during the cooling operation and on the liquefier during heating operation.
Below the evaporator is a catch pan, which must be connected with a drain. The lower part of the outdoor component housing is formed in the shape of a collection tray. The condensate connection included in the scope of delivery is to be attached here.
■
The condensation pipe should have a fall of min. 2 %. (Fig. 10). If necessary, fit vapour diffusion tight insulation.
■
The condensation pipe from the unit should run freely into the drainage pipe. If the condensation runs directly into a sewer pipe, fit a trap to prevent any unpleasant odours.
■
When operating the unit at ambient temperatures below 0 °C , make sure to route the condensation pipe freeze proof. The lower part of the housing is also to be kept frost free by the customer, in order to ensure permanent draining of the condensate. If necessary, fit supplementary pipe heating.
■
After completed routing, check for unobstructed condensation discharge and ensure that a permanent seal is provided.
10
Fall of condensation pipe
minimum 2% fall
The condensation hose is designed to be installed on the left side (view from front).
Electrical connection
Mains cable must be installed as voltage supply to the indoor unit and a control cable to the outdoor component, with appropriate safeguards.
CAUTION
All electrical installation work should be performed by spe­cialist contractors. Isolate the voltage supply when connect­ing the electrical terminals.
The device's scope of delivery includes a five metre long, four­core control cable for connecting the indoor unit to the outdoor component. The control cable to the outdoor component contains a data line which serves to realise communication between the indoor unit and the outdoor component. This is used for controlling the cooling and heating performance and for forwarding fault indications to the indoor unit.
