REMKO ML...DC

3.1
The ML 263 DC-523 DC room air conditioners
have a REMKO ML...AT outdoor unit as well as an
ML...IT indoor unit.
In cooling mode, the outdoor unit serves to output
the heat extracted by the indoor unit from the room
being cooled. In heating mode, the heat taken up
by the outdoor unit can be discharged by the
indoor unit into the room to be heated. In both
operating modes, the output produced by the compressor precisely matches requirements, and
thereby regulates the nominal temperature with
minimal temperature deviations. This "inverter
technology" results in energy savings over conventional split systems and also reduces noise emissions to a particularly low level. The outdoor unit
can be installed in an outdoor area or, providing
that certain requirements are met, an indoor area.
The indoor unit is designed to be mounted high up
on the wall, in indoor areas. It is operated by an
infrared remote control.
The outdoor unit consists of a cooling cycle with
compressor, fin condenser, condenser fan,
reversing valve and throttle element. The outdoor
unit is controlled by the controller in the indoor unit.
The indoor unit consists of a fin evaporator, evaporator fan, controller and condensate tray.
Floor brackets, wall brackets, refrigerant piping and
condensate pumps are available as accessories.

The indoor unit is easily operated using the
standard infrared remote control. The indoor unit
beeps to acknowledge the correct transmission of
data. If it is not possible to program the indoor unit
with the remote control, then it can also be manually operated.
Manual mode
The indoor units can be put into operation manually. After the air inlet screen has been opened,
the inner recessed key can be pressed and automatic mode can be activated. In manual mode, the
following settings apply:
Cooling mode: last setting
Fan speed: AUTO
Heating mode: last setting
Fan: AUTO
Press a key on the infrared remote control to interrupt manual mode.
Operation
Alarms are indicated by a code (see chapter
Troubleshooting and customer service).
NOTICE!
Immediately replace flat batteries with a new
set, otherwise there is a risk of leakage. It is
recommended that the batteries are removed if
the equipment is shut down for longer periods.
Help save on energy consumption in stand-by
mode! If the device, system or component is
not in use, we recommend disconnecting the
power supply. Components with a safety function is excluded from our recommendation!
Infrared remote control
The infrared remote control sends the programmed
settings a distance of up to 6 m to the receiver of
the indoor unit. Data will only be received correctly
if the remote control is pointed at the receiver and
no objects are obstructing the transmission path.
Two AAA batteries must be inserted into the
remote control in preparation. To do so, remove
the flap from the battery compartment and insert
the batteries the correct way around (see markings). Removing the batteries causes all stored
data to be lost. The remote control will then access
the default settings, which you are free to customise at any time.
Display on indoor unit
The display illuminates according to the settings.

location
Indoor unit
The indoor unit is designed for horizontal wall
installation above doors. However, it can also be
used in the upper wall area (min. 1.75m above the
floor).
Outdoor unit
The outdoor unit is designed for horizontal installation on a base in outdoor areas. The installation
site must be level, flat and firm. The unit should
also be secured to prevent it from tipping over. The
outdoor unit can be set up outside as well as inside
a building. For external installation, please observe
the following notes to protect the unit from the
influence of the weather.
Rain
For floor or roof set-up, the unit should be installed
with at least 10cm ground clearance. A floor
bracket is available as an optional accessory.
Sun
The condenser on the outdoor unit emits heat.
Exposure to sunlight further increases the temperature of the fins and reduces the heat released by
the finned heat exchanger. The outdoor unit should
be installed on to the north side of the building
whenever possible. If necessary, take measures to
provide sufficient shade (responsibility of customer). One possible solution is to build a small
roofed area over the unit. 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 20cm
above the expected level of snow to prevent snow
from entering the outdoor unit. An optional wall
bracket is available as an accessory.

The following instructions describe the installation
of the cooling cycle and the assembly of the indoor
unit and the outdoor unit.
1.The required pipe diameters are given in the
table "Technical data".
2.Install the indoor unit and connect the refrigerant piping as described in the operating
manual for the indoor unit.
3.Use the wall or floor brackets to fit the outdoor unit against structural parts approved to
support the static load (refer to the installation instructions for the brackets).
4.Ensure that structure-borne sound is not
transferred to parts of the building. Use vibration dampers to reduce the effects of structure-borne sound!
5.Lay the refrigerant piping from the indoor unit
to the outdoor unit. Ensure that the fastenings are adequate and if necessary, take
appropriate oil return measures!
6.Remove the factory-fitted protective caps and
union nuts on the connections. These should
be used later in the installation process.
7.Before flanging the refrigerant piping, ensure
that the union nut is fitted on the pipe.
8.Prepare the laid refrigerant pipings as shown
below (Fig. 34 and Fig. 35
9.Verify that the shape of the flange is correct
(Fig. 36).
10.First connect and hand-tighten the refrigerant
piping to ensure it is correctly seated.
11.Then tighten the fittings with 2 appropriatelysized open-ended spanners. Use one
spanner to counter the force when tightening
the fitting (Fig. 37).
12.Use insulation hoses which are designed for
this temperature range and are diffusion
proof.
13.Observe the permitted bending radius for the
refrigerant piping during installation. Never
bend a pipe twice in the same place. Brittleness and cracking can result.
14.Apply appropriate heat insulation to the
installed refrigerant piping, including connector.
15.Take the same action at the shut-off valves
for all subsequent refrigerant piping.
).
Label the refrigerant piping (injection and suction pipes) as well as the associated electrical
control lines of each interior unit with a letter.
Only connect the lines to their associated connections.
NOTICE!
Always pay attention to the affiliation of the
electrical lines and refrigerant piping! The connections of the individual circuits must not be
mixed up. Mixing up the assignment of control
lines and refrigerant piping can have fatal consequences (compressor damage)!

the refrigerant piping
n When combining the outdoor unit with some
indoor units, the procedure for connecting the

Leak testing
Once all the connections have been made, the
pressure gauge station is attached to the Schrader
valve as follows (if fitted):
red = small valve = high pressure
blue = large valve = suction pressure
Once the connection has been made successfully,
the leak test is carried out with dry nitrogen.
Leak testing involves spraying a leak detection
spray onto the connections. If bubbles are visible,
the connections have not been made properly. In
that case, tighten the connection or, if necessary,
create a new flange.
After completing a successful leak test, the excess
pressure in the refrigerant piping is removed and a
vacuum pump with an absolute final partial pressure of min. 10 mbar is used to remove all of the
air and empty the pipes. Any moisture present in
the pipes will also be removed.
NOTICE!
A vacuum of at least 20 mbar must be produced!
6.5
Adding refrigerant
The units contain a basic quantity of refrigerant. In
addition, an additional amount of refrigerant must
be added for refrigerant piping lengths exceeding 5
metres per circuit. Refer to the following chart:
Up to and
incl. 5m
ML 263 DC
0 g/m30 g/mML 353 DC
ML 523 DC
CAUTION!
Wear protective clothing when handling refrigerant.
DANGER!
Only refrigerant in a liquid state may be used to
fill the cooling cycle!
From 5m to
max. length
The time required to generate the vacuum is
dependent on the final pressure pipe volume of the
indoor units and the length of the refrigerant piping.
However, the process will take at least 60minutes. 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 unit are
opened as described in the "Commissioning" section.
NOTICE!
Check the overheating to determine the refrigerant fill quantity.
NOTICE!
The escape of refrigerant contributes to climatic change. In the event of escape, refrigerant with a low greenhouse potential has a
lesser impact on global warming than those
with a high greenhouse potential. This device
contains refrigerant with a greenhouse potential of 1975. That means the escape of 1 kg of
this refrigerant has an effect on global warming
that is 1975 times greater than 1 kg CO2,
based on 100 years. Do not conduct any work
on the refrigerant circuit or dismantle the
device - always enlist the help of qualified
experts.

If the temperature falls below the dew point, condensation will form on the finned condenser during
heating mode.
A condensate tray should be installed on the
underside of the unit to drain any condensate.
n The condensate drainage line should have an
incline of min. 2%. This is the responsibility of
the customer. If necessary, fit vapour-diffusionproof insulation.
n When operating the unit at outside tempera-
tures below 4 °C, ensure the condensate
drainage line is laid to protect it against frost.
The lower part of the housing and condensate
tray is also to be kept frost free in order to
ensure permanent draining of the condensate.
If necessary, fit a pipe heater.
n Following installation, check that the conden-
sate run off is unobstructed and ensure that the
line is durably leak tight.

After leak testing has been successfully completed, connect the vacuum pump via the pressure
gauge station to the valve connections on the outdoor unit (see chapter "Leak testing") and create a
vacuum.
Perform the following checks prior to putting the
unit into operation for the first time and after any
work on the cooling cycle. Record the results in the
commissioning report:
n Check all refrigerant piping and valves for leak-

Commissioning
n Check of the surface temperature of the suc-
tion pipe and that the vaporiser is not overheating. To measure the temperature, hold the
thermometer to the suction pipe and subtract
the boiling point temperature reading on the
pressure gauge from the measured temperature.
n Record the measured temperatures in the
commissioning report.
NOTICE!
Commissioning should only be performed by
specially trained personnel and documented
after the certificate has been issued. Observe
the operating manuals for the indoor unit and
outdoor unit when commissioning the entire
system.
Once all the components have been connected
and tested, the system can be put into operation. A
functional check should be performed to verify its
correct function and identify any unusual operating
behaviour prior to handing it over to the operator.
NOTICE!
Check that the shut-off valves and valve caps
are tight after carrying out any work on the
cooling cycle. Use appropriate sealant products as necessary.
Functional checks and test run
Check the following points:
n Leak-tightness of the refrigerant piping.
n Compressor and fan running smoothly.
n In cooling mode, cold air output by the indoor
unit, and warm air output by the outdoor unit.
n Function test of the indoor unit and all program
sequences.
42
Function test of the cooling and heating modes
1.Remove the protective caps from the valves.
2.Start the commissioning procedure by briefly
opening the shut-off valves on the outdoor
unit until the pressure gauge indicates a
pressure of approx. 2 bar.
3.Check all connections for leaks with leak
detection spray and suitable leak detectors.
4.If no leaks are found, fully open the shut-off
valves by turning them anti-clockwise using a
spanner. If leaks are found, remedy the faulty
connection. It is imperative that the vacuum
creation and drying steps are repeated.
5.Activate the main circuit breaker or fuse (to
be provided by the customer).
6.Press the test knob on the outdoor unit and
wait until a frequency of min. 50 Hz is established.
7.Use the remote control to switch on the unit
and select the cooling mode, maximum fan
speed and lowest target temperature.
8.Check the overheating, outside, inside, outlet
and vaporisation temperatures and record
the measured values in the commissioning
report. Check the correct function and settings of all regulation, control and safety
devices.
9.Check the unit control system using the func-
tions described in the chapter "Operation".
Timer, temperature setting, fan speeds and
switching to ventilation or dehumidification
mode.
10.Check the correct function of the condensate
drainage by pouring distilled water into the
condensate tray. A bottle with a spout is recommended for pouring the water into the
condensation tray.
11.Switch the indoor unit to heating mode.
12.During the test run, check the functionality of
all of the previously described safety devices.
13.Record the measured values into the com-
missioning report and familiarise the operator
with the system.
14.Remove the pressure gauge. Check that
seals have been fitted in the sealing caps.
15.Re-install all disassembled parts.
