SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins
on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.
When Installing…
…In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent
“sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to
walls and floors.
…In Moist or Uneven Locations
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a
solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents
water damage and abnormal vibration.
…In an Area with High Winds
Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a
metal frame. Provide a suitable air baffle.
…In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)
Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher
than drifting snow. Provide snow vents.
When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
• Ventilate the room well, in the event that is refrigerant
gas leaks during the installation. Be careful not to allow
contact of the refrigerant gas with a flame as this will
cause the generation of poisonous gas.
• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
• Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
• Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of
the flare and union tubes before connecting them, then
tighten the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free connection.
• Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
WARNING
• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing
are completed or reconnected and checked.
• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these
instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inadequate grounding can cause accidental injury or death.
• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and a possible fire hazard.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE
SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED
ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO

When Transporting
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor
units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees when lifting to
When Servicing
• Turn the power OFF at the main power box (mains)
before opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts
and wiring.
• Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving
parts.
• Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check
that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been left
inside the unit being serviced.
CAUTION
• Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testing
the refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on
contact with fire or heat, can produce dangerously toxic
gas.
• Confirm after installation that no refrigerant gas is leaking. If the gas comes in contact with a burning stove, gas
water heater, electric room heater or other heat source,
it can cause the generation of poisonous gas.

Check of Density Limit
The room in which the air conditioner is to be installed
requires a design that in the event of refrigerant gas
leaking out, its density will not exceed a set limit.
The refrigerant (R410A), which is used in the air conditioner,
is safe, without the toxicity or combustibility of ammonia,
and is not restricted by laws imposed to protect the ozone
layer. However, since it contains more than air, it poses the
risk of suffocation if its density should rise excessively.
Suffocation from leakage of refrigerant is almost non-existent. With the recent increase in the number of high density
buildings, however, the installation of multi air conditioner
systems is on the increase because of the need for effective
use of floor space, individual control, energy conservation
by curtailing heat and carrying power, etc.
Most importantly, the multi air conditioner system is able to
replenish a large amount of refrigerant compared to
conventional individual air conditioners. If a single unit of
the multi air conditioner system is to be installed in a small
room, select a suitable model and installation procedure
so that if the refrigerant accidentally leaks out, its density
does not reach the limit (and in the event of an emergency,
measures can be made before injury can occur).
In a room where the density may exceed the limit, create
an opening with adjacent rooms, or install mechanical
ventilation combined with a gas leak detection device.
The density is as given below.
Total amount of refrigerant (oz)
Min. volume of the indoor unit installed room (ft.3)
<
Density limit (oz/ft.3)
The density limit of refrigerant which is used in multi air conditioners is 0.3 oz/ft.
NOTE
1. If there are 2 or more refrigerating systems in a single
refrigerating device, the amount of refrigerant should be
as charged in each independent device.
For the amount of charge in this example:
e.g., charged

and F is 529 oz.

2. The standards for minimum room volume are as follows.
(1) No partition (shaded portion)
(2) When there is an effective opening with the adjacent
room for ventilation of leaking refrigerant gas (opening
without a door, or an opening 0.15% or larger than the
respective floor spaces at the top or bottom of the
door).

(3) If an indoor unit is installed in each partitioned room
and the refrigerant tubing is interconnected, the
smallest room of course becomes the object. But when
mechanical ventilation is installed interlocked with a
gas leakage detector in the smallest room where the
density limit is exceeded, the volume of the next
smallest room becomes the object.

Precautions for Installation Using New Refrigerant
1. Care regarding tubing
1-1. Process tubing
Material: Use C1220 phosphorous deoxidized copper specified in JIS H3300 “Copper and Copper Alloy Seamless
Pipes and Tubes.”
Tubing size: Be sure to use the sizes indicated in the table below.
Use a tube cutter when cutting the tubing, and be sure to remove any flash. This also applies to distribution joints
(optional).
When bending tubing, use a bending radius that is 4 times the outer diameter of the tubing or larger.
Use sufficient care in handling the tubing. Seal the tubing ends with
1-2. Prevent impurities including water, dust and oxide from entering the tubing. Impurities can cause R410A
refrigerant deterioration and compressor defects. Due to the features of the refrigerant and refrigerating
machine oil, the prevention of water and other impurities becomes more important than ever.
caps or tape to prevent dirt, moisture, or other foreign substances
from entering. These substances can result in system malfunction.
Unit: in. (mm)
2. Be sure to recharge the refrigerant only in liquid form.
2-1. Since R410A is a non-azeotrope, recharging the refrigerant in gas form can lower performance and cause
defects of the unit.
2-2. Since refrigerant composition changes and performance decreases when gas leaks, collect the remaining
refrigerant and recharge the required total amount of new refrigerant after fixing the leak.
3. Different tools required
3-1. Tool specifications have been changed due to the characteristics of R410A.
Some tools for R22- and R407C-type refrigerant systems cannot be used.

2. Existing tubing cannot be used (especially R22).
Completely cleaning out residual refrigerating
machine oil is impossible, even by flushing.
3. Refrigerating machine oil differs (R22).
Since R22 refrigerating machine oil is mineral oil, it
does not dissolve in R410A. Therefore, refrigerating
machine oil discharged from the compressor can
cause compressor damage.

WARNING
Always check the gas density
limit for the room in which the
unit is installed.
Minimum indoor volume & floor area as against the
amount of refrigerant is roughly as given in the following
table.
1-10. Check of Limit Density
When installing an air conditioner in a room, it is necessary to ensure that even if the refrigerant gas accidentally
leaks out, its density does not exceed the limit level for
that room.
If the density could exceed the limit level, it is necessary to
provide an opening between the unit and the adjacent
room, or to install mechanical ventilation which is interlocked with the leak detector.

<
Limit density 0.3 (oz/ft.3)
The limit density of refrigerant which is used in this unit is
0.3 oz/ft.3(ISO 5149).
The shipped outdoor unit comes charged with the amount
of refrigerant fixed for each type, so add it to the amount
that is charged in the field. (For the refrigerant charge
amount at shipment, refer to the unit’s nameplate.)
CAUTION
Pay special attention to any
location, such as a basement,
etc., where leaking refrigerant
can accumulate, since refrigerant gas is heavier than air.
enclosed with the optional distribution joint kit
(APR-P160BA).
(2) In order to prevent accumulation of refrigerant oil in
stopped units, if the main tubing is horizontal then each
branch tubing length should be at an angle that is
greater than horizontal. If the main tubing is vertical,
provide a raised starting portion for each branch.
(3) If there are height differences between indoor units or if
branch tubing that follows a distribution joint is connected to only 1 unit, a trap or ball valve must be added to
that distribution joint. (When adding the ball valve,
locate it within 1.3 ft. of the distribution joint.)
(Consult with SANYO separately concerning the ball
valve.)
If a trap or ball valve is not added, do not operate
the system before repairs to a malfunctioning unit
are completed. (The refrigerant oil sent through the
tubing to the malfunctioning unit will accumulate
and may damage the compressor.)

(a): Liquid tubingTotal length of ø3/8" (ft.)(b): Liquid tubingTotal length of ø1/4" (ft.)
Charging procedure
Be sure to charge with R410A refrigerant in liquid form.
1. After performing a vacuum, charge with refrigerant from the liquid tubing side. At this time, all valves must be
in the “fully closed” position.
2. If it was not possible to charge the designated amount, operate the system in Cooling mode while charging
with refrigerant from the gas tubing side. (This is performed at the time of the test run. For this, all valves
must be in the “fully open” position.)
Charge with R410A refrigerant in liquid form.
With R410A refrigerant, charge while adjusting the amount being fed a little at a time in order to prevent
liquid refrigerant from backing up.
After charging is completed, turn all valves to the “fully open” position.
Replace the tubing covers as they were before.
Tightening torque for valve stem cap: 160 – 180 lbs · in.
Tightening torque: 300 – 360 lbs
CAUTION
1. R410A additional charging absolutely must be done through liquid charging.
2. The R410A refrigerant cylinder has a gray base color, and the top part is pink.
3. The R410A refrigerant cylinder includes a siphon tube. Check that the siphon
tube is present. (This is indicated on the label at the top of the cylinder.)
4. Due to differences in the refrigerant, pressure, and refrigerant oil involved in
installation, it is not possible in some cases to use the same tools for R22 and
for R410A.

CAUTION
Be sure to check the limit
density for the room in which
the indoor unit is installed.
Checking of limit density
Density limit is determined on the basis of the size of a
room using an indoor unit of minimum capacity. For
instance, when an indoor unit is used in a room (floor area
2
× ceiling height 8.8 ft. = room volume 704 ft.3), the
80 ft
graph at right shows that the minimum room volume
should be 497 ft.

(floor area 56 ft.2) for refrigerant of 147
oz. Accordingly, openings such as louvers are required for
this room.
<Determination by calculation>
Overall refrigerant charge amount for the air conditioner: oz
(Minimum room volume for indoor unit: ft.3)
147 (oz) + 123 (oz)
=
704 (ft.

)
= 0.38 (oz/ft.

) > 0.3 (oz/ft.3)
Therefore, openings such as louvers are required for this
room.

AVOID:
areas where leakage of flammable gas may be
expected.
places where large amounts of oil mist exist.
direct sunlight.
locations near heat sources which may affect the
performance of the unit.
locations where external air may enter the room
directly. This may cause “sweating” on the air discharge ports, causing them to spray or drip.
locations where the remote controller will be splashed
with water or affected by dampness or humidity.
installing the remote controller behind curtains or
furniture.
locations where high-frequency emissions are
generated.
DO:
select an appropriate position from which every
corner of the room can be uniformly cooled.
select a location where the ceiling is strong enough
to support the weight of the unit.
select a location where tubing and drain pipe have
the shortest run to the outdoor unit.
allow room for operation and maintenance as well as
unrestricted air flow around the unit.
install the unit within the maximum elevation
difference above or below the outdoor unit and within
a total tubing length (L) from the outdoor unit as

3. HOW TO INSTALL THE INDOOR UNIT
4-Way Air Discharge Semi-Concealed Type (X Type)
3-1. Preparation for Suspending
This unit uses a drain pump. Use a carpenter’s level to check that the
unit is level.
3-2. Suspending the Indoor Unit
(1) Fix the suspension bolts securely in the ceiling using the method
shown in the diagrams (Figs. 3-1 and 3-2), by attaching them to the
ceiling support structure, or by any other method that ensures that
the unit will be securely and safely suspended.
(2) Follow Fig. 3-2 and Table 3-1 to make the holes in the ceiling.

(3) Determine the pitch of the suspension bolts using the supplied full-
scale installation diagram. The diagram and table (Fig. 3-3 and
Table 3-2) show the relationship between the positions of the suspension fitting, unit, and panel.
(1) When placing the unit inside the ceiling, determine
the pitch of the suspension bolts using the supplied
full-scale installation diagram. (Fig. 3-4)
Tubing and wiring must be laid inside the ceiling
when suspending the unit. If the ceiling is already
constructed, lay the tubing and wiring into position
for connection to the unit before placing the unit
inside the ceiling.

(2) The length of suspension bolts must be appropriate
for a distance between the bottom of the bolt and the
bottom of the unit of more than 19/32 in. as shown in
Fig. 3-5.

(3) Thread the 3 hexagonal nuts and 2 washers (field
supply) onto each of the 4 suspension bolts as shown
in Fig. 3-5. Use 1 nut and 1 washer for the upper side,
and 2 nuts and 1 washer for the lower side, so that the
unit will not fall off the suspension lugs.
(4) Adjust so that the distance between the unit and the
ceiling bottom is 15/32 to 43/64 in. Tighten the nuts on
the upper side and lower side of the suspension lug.
(5) Remove the protective polyethylene used to protect
the fan parts during transport.
3-4. Installing the Drain Piping
(1) Prepare a standard hard PVC pipe (O.D. 1-1/4 in.) for
the drain and use the supplied drain hose and hose
band to prevent water leaks.
The PVC pipe must be purchased separately. The
unit’s transparent drain port allows you to check
drainage. (Fig. 3-6)
CAUTION
Insert the drain pipe until it contacts the socket, as
shown in Fig. 3-6, then secure it tightly with the
hose band.
Do not use adhesive when connecting the supplied
hose.
Reasons: 1. It may cause water to leak from the
connection. Since the connection is
slippery just after the adhesive has been
applied, the pipe easily slips off.
2. The pipe cannot be removed when
maintenance is needed.
Do not bend the supplied drain hose 90° or more.
The hose may slip off.
Align the hose bands with the end of the hose.
Tighten the hose band firmly. Please make sure
that the bead is not covered by the hose band.

(Fig. 3-6)
(2) After checking the drainage, wrap the supplied packing
and drain pipe insulator around the pipe. (Fig. 3-7)
NOTE
Make sure the drain pipe has a downward gradient (1/100
or more) and that there are no water traps.
26
CAUTION
Fig. 3-8
Do not install an air bleeder
as this may cause water to
spray from the drain pipe
outlet. (Fig. 3-8)
CAUTION
In cases where it is necessary to raise the height
of the drain piping, the drain piping can be raised
to a maximum height of 33-15/32" above the
bottom surface of the ceiling. Under no
conditions attempt to raise it higher than
33-15/32" above the bottom surface of the ceiling.
Doing so will result in water leakage. (Fig. 3-9)
Do not install the pipe with an upward gradient
from the connection port. This will cause the
drain water to flow backward and leak when the
unit is not operating. (Fig. 3-10)
Do not apply force to the piping on the unit side
when connecting the drain pipe. The pipe should
not be allowed to hang unsupported from its
connection to the unit. Fasten the pipe to a wall,
frame, or other support as close to the unit as
possible. (Fig. 3-11)
Provide insulation for any pipes that are run
indoors.
3-5. Checking the Drainage
After wiring and drain piping are completed, use the
following procedure to check that the water will drain
smoothly. For this, prepare a bucket and wiping cloth to
catch and wipe up spilled water.
(1) Connect power to the power terminal board (R, S
terminals) inside the electrical component box.
11-3/16 in. or less (asshort as possible)

Drainage check
(2) Slowly pour about 0.3 gal of water into the drain pan
to check drainage. (Fig. 3-12)
(3) Short the check pin (CHK) on the indoor control
board and operate the drain pump. Check the water
flow through the transparent drain pipe and see if
there is any leakage.
(4) When the check of drainage is complete, open the
check pin (CHK) and remount the tube cover.
CAUTION
Be careful since the fan will
start when you short the pin
on the indoor control board.
