IMPORTANT! Please Read Before Starting
This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating standards. As the installer or service person, it is an impor­tant part of your job to install or service the system so it oper­ates safely and efficiently.
For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you must:
Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.
Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown.
Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.
Pay close attention to all warning and caution notices given in this manual.
This symbol refers to a hazard or
WARNING
CAUTION
If Necessary, Get Help
These instructions are all you need for most installation sites and maintenance conditions. If you require help for a special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or your certified dealer for additional instructions.
In Case of Improper Installation
The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for improper installation or maintenance service, including fail­ure to follow the instructions in this document.
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
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.
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 reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers.
When Wiring
ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYS­TEM.
unsafe practice which can result in severe personal injury or death.
This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in personal injury or product or property damage.
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.
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.
2. The standards for minimum room volume are as follows.
(1) No partition (shaded portion)
(2) When there is an effective opening with the adja-
cent 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).
Outdoor unit
Refrigerant tubing
Indoor unit
(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.

(ISO 5149).
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:
Outdoor unit
e.g., charged amount (22 lbs.)
Indoor unit
Room A Room B Room C Room D Room E Room F
The possible amount of leaked refrigerant gas in rooms A, B and C is 22 lbs. The possible amount of leaked refrigerant gas in rooms D, E and F is 33 lbs.
e.g., charged amount (33 lbs.)

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 Seam-
less 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 ø5/8" or smaller, 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
CAUTION
Material O
Copper tube
Outer diameter 1/4 3/8 1/2 5/8
Wall thickness 1/32 1/32 1/32 5/128
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: inch
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.

3-2. Use R410A exclusive cylinder only.
When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, use an
electronic scale for charging refrigerant. In this case, if the volume of refrigerant in the cylinder becomes less than 20% of the fully-charged amount, the composition of the refrigerant starts to change. Thus, do not use the refrigerant if the amount in the charging cylinder is less than 20%.
Also, charge the minimum necessary amount to the charging cylinder before using it to charge the air conditioning unit.

Refrigerant tubing between the indoor and outdoor units
should be kept as short as possible.
The length of the refrigerant tubes between the indoor
and outdoor units are limited by the elevation difference between the 2 units. During tubing work, try to make both the tubing length (L) and the difference in elevation (H1) as short as possible. Refer to Table 1-10.

CAUTION
1. This unit requires no additional refrig­erant charge up to 100 ft. tubing length. In case of more than 100 ft., additional refrigerant charge is required. Refer to Tables 1-11 and 1-12.
2. In case of multi type installation, indoor units should be installed within the same room. If multi type indoor units are installed in different rooms, temperature control may develop prob­lems because thermostat operation must follow the thermostat condition of 1 indoor unit only (the main unit).
WARNING
Always check the gas density for the room in which the unit is installed.
Check of limit density
When installing an air conditioner in a room, it is neces­sary to ensure that even if the refrigerant gas acciden­tally escapes, its density does not exceed the limit level. If the density might exceed the limit level, it is neces­sary to set up an opening between it 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.
(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 at the field. (For the refriger­ant charge amount at shipment, refer to the unit’s nameplate.)

The PVC pipe must be purchased separately. The transparent part allows you to check drainage. (Fig. 3-6)
CAUTION
Tighten the hose clamps so their locking nuts face upward.
Packing (supplied)
Drain hose (supplied)
Fig. 3-6
Drain hose adapter (supplied)
(Fig. 3-6)
Drain insulator (supplied)
(2) After checking the drainage, wrap the supplied
packing and drain pipe insulator around the pipe. (Fig. 3-7)
NOTE
Ensure the drain pipe has a downward gradient (1/100 or more) and that there are no water traps.
CAUTION
Do not install an air bleeder tube, as this may cause water to spray from the drain tube outlet. (Fig. 3-8)
If it is necessary to increase the height of the drain pipe, the section directly after the connection port can be raised a maximum of 19-11/16 in. Do not raise it any higher than 19-11/16 in., as this could result in water leaks. (Fig. 3-9)
Do not install the pipe with an upward gradient from the connection port. This will cause drain water to flow backwards and leak when the unit is stopped. (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 drain pipe that is run indoors.

unit until the tubing and wiring to the outdoor unit are completed.
(1) Take off the tube cover and through the opening,
slowly pour about 43 oz. of water into the drain pan to check drainage.
(2) Do Test Run to check the drainage after complet-
ing installation. When performing Test Run, be sure to observe the Test Run procedure. Refer to page 104.
Be careful since the fan will

smoothly. For this, prepare a bucket and wiping cloth to catch and wipe up spilled water.
Support pieces
(1) Connect power to the power terminal board (L1, L2
terminal) inside the electrical component box.
(2) Remove the tube cover and through the opening,
slowly pour about 43 oz. of water into the drain pan to check drainage.
(3) Short the check pin (CN5 white) on the indoor control
board and operate the drain pump. Check the water flow and see if there is any leakage.
Be careful since the fan will start
CAUTION
when you short the pin on the indoor control board.
(4) When the check of drainage is complete, open the
check pin (CN5 white) and remount the insulator and drain cap onto the drain inspection port.
To mount the tube cover, use 5/16"
CAUTION
(4 ××8 mm) tapping screws. Do not use long screws as they may puncture the drain pan and cause water leak-age.

3-26. Increasing the Fan Speed
If external static pressure is too great (due to long extension of ducts, for example), the air flow volume may drop too low at each air outlet. This problem may be solved by increasing the fan speed using the following procedure:
(1) Remove 4 screws on the electrical component box
and remove the cover plate.
(2) Disconnect the fan motor sockets in the box.
(3) Take out the booster cable (sockets at both ends)
clamped in the box.
(4) Securely connect the booster cable sockets
between the disconnected fan motor sockets in step 2 as shown in the Fig. 3-104.
(5) Place the cable neatly in the box and reinstall the
cover plate.

How to read the diagram
The vertical axis is the external static pressure (Pa) while the horizontal axis represents the air flow (CFM). The characteristic curves for “HT”, “H”, “M” and “L” fan speed control are shown. The nameplate values are shown based on the “H” air flow. For the 26 type, the air flow is 636 CFM, while the external static pressure is 49 Pa at “H” position. If external static pressure is too great (due to long extension of duct, for example), the air flow volume may drop too low at each air outlet. This problem may be solved by increasing the fan speed as explained above.

4. HOW TO INSTALL THE OUTDOOR UNIT
4-1. Installing the Outdoor Unit
Use concrete or a similar material to create the base, and
ensure good drainage.
Ordinarily, ensure a base height of 2 in. or more. If a drain
pipe is used, or for use in cold-weather regions, ensure a height of 6 in. or more at the feet on both sides of the unit. (In this case, leave clearance below the unit for the drain pipe, and to prevent freezing of drainage water in cold­weather regions.)
Refer to the Fig. 4-1 for the anchor bolt dimensions.
Be sure to anchor the feet with the anchor bolts (M10). In
addition, use anchoring washers on the top side. (Use large square 32 × 32 SUS washers with diameters of 10.) (Field supply)
4-2. Drainage Work
Follow the procedure below to ensure adequate draining for the outdoor unit.
For the drain port dimensions, refer to the figure at right.
Ensure a base height of 6 in. or more at the feet on both
sides of the unit.
When using a drain pipe, install the drain socket (optional
part STK-DS25T) onto the drain port. Seal the other drain port with the rubber cap supplied with the drain socket.
For details, refer to the instruction manual of the drain
socket (optional part STK-DS25T).
4-3. Routing the Tubing and Wiring
The tubing and wiring can be extended out in 4 directions:
front, rear, right, and down.
The service valves are housed inside the unit. To access
them, remove the inspection panel. (To remove the inspec­tion panel, remove the 3 screws, then slide the panel downward and pull it toward you.)
(1) If the routing direction is through the front, rear, or right,
use a nipper or similar tool to cut out the knockout holes for the inter-unit control wiring outlet, power wiring outlet, and tubing outlet from the appropriate covers A and B.
(2) If the routing direction is down, use a nipper or similar tool
to cut out the lower flange from cover A.
Route the tubing so that it does
CAUTION
not contact the compressor, panel, or other parts inside the unit. Increased noise will result if the tubing contacts these parts.
When routing the tubing, use a
tube bender to bend the tubes.

5. ELECTRICAL WIRING
5-1. General Precautions on Wiring
(1) Before wiring, confirm the rated voltage of the unit
as shown on its nameplate, then carry out the wiring closely following the wiring diagram.
(2) Provide a power outlet to be used exclusively for
each unit, and a power supply disconnect and circuit breaker for overcurrent protection should be provided in the exclusive line.
(3) To prevent possible hazards from insulation
failure, the unit must be grounded.
(4) Each wiring connection must be done in
accordance with the wiring system diagram. Wrong wiring may cause the unit to misoperate or become damaged.
(5) Do not allow wiring to touch the refrigerant tubing,
compressor, or any moving parts of the fan.
(6) Unauthorized changes in the internal wiring can be
very dangerous. The manufacturer will accept no responsibility for any damage or misoperation that occurs as a result of such unauthorized changes.
(7) Regulations on wire diameters differ from locality
to locality. For field wiring rules, must follow your LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES before beginning. You must ensure that installation complies with all relevant rules and regulations.
(8) To prevent malfunction of the air conditioner
caused by electrical noise, care must be taken when wiring as follows:
The remote control wiring and the inter-unit
control wiring should be wired apart from the inter-unit power wiring.
Use shielded wires for inter-unit control wiring
between units and ground the shield on both sides.
(9) If the power supply cord of this appliance is dam-
aged, it must be replaced by a repair shop appointed by the manufacturer, because special­purpose tools are required.
(10) All wiring used must be Class 1.

7. HOW TO INSTALL THE WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROLLER (OPTIONAL PART)
IMPORTANT
When using this air conditioner with the wireless remote controller it may sometimes be impossible to change the operation modes while other indoor unit is running.
When this happens, a double beep tone sounds,
the (operation lamp) lights up, and the (Timer
lamp) and (Standby lamp) blink alternately. Operation is the same even during (AUTO mode) automatic cooling or heating. A beep tone sounds 5 times and no changes can be made when any of the ON/OFF, MODE, Tem­perature setting buttons were pressed while set under central control by the system controller.
7-1. Wireless Remote Controller Installation
The remote controller can be operated from either a non-fixed position or a wall-mounted position.
RC
(WL)
To ensure that the air conditio
ner operates correctly,
do not install the remote controller in the following places:
In direct sunlight. Behind a curtain or other place where it is covered. More than 26 ft. away from the air conditioner. In the path of the air conditioner’s airstream. Where it may become extremely hot or cold. Where it may be subject to electrical or magnetic interference.
(1) If Wall-mounted Fixed Position
Install the remote controller at a convenient location on a nearby wall. However, before
attaching the remote controller mounting cradle, check that the remote controller can operate from the desired wall pos
ition. (Fig. 7-1)
How to Install Batteries

7-2. Room Temperature Sensor Setting
The room temperature sensors are built into the indoor unit and the wireless remote controller. Either of these
room temperature sensors can operate. The system is shipped from the factory set to the indoor unit sensor. To switch to the remote controller sensor, press the sensor switching button located inside the remote controller cover and check that A/C SENSOR on the LCD display panel goes out.
NOTE
If the sensor switch is set to the remote controller side, but no room temperature data is sent to the main unit for 10 minutes, the sensor is automatically switched to the indoor unit side. As much as possible, install the remote controller facing the unit.
7-3. Address Switches
If you are installing more than 1 indoor unit (up to 6) in the same room, it is necessary for you to assign each unit its own address so they each can be operated by their remote controller.
Up to 6 indoor units can be controlled separately through the address switches. The operating control has the reception address switch and the remote controller has the transmission address switch. This function is utilized by matching the transmission and reception address switches.

7-21-1. Changing the room temperature sensor
Room temperature sensors are installed inside the indoor unit and the wireless remote controller. Either room temperature sensor can be used.
When “Unit Sensor” is indicated on the wireless remote controller LCD, the indoor unit sensor is operating as the room temperature sensor. To change to the remote controller sensor, open the remote controller cover an
d press the SENSOR button once. The “Unit Sensor” display disappears, and the remote controller sensor becomes the room temperature sensor.
If the temperature data from the remote controller is not communicated to the indoor
CAUTION
unit for a period of 10 minutes when the remote controller sensor is selected, the unit automatically switches back to the indoor unit sensor. Install the remote controller in a location where the signal can reliably be received by the indoor unit.
7-21-2. Using the remote controller
Face the remote controller toward the receiver (indoor unit). The maximum distance where the remote controller signal can be received is approximately 8 m, however this
distance is only a guide. The actual distance may vary somewhat depending on battery capacity and other conditions.
Make sure there are no obstructions which can block the signal between the remote controller and the receiver. When the remote controller signal is received correctly, the indoor unit beeps.
(It beeps twice only when operation is started.)

8-5. How to Perform Zone Registration
To operate the system controller properly, zone registration is required after finishing the test run (and after setting all indoor unit addresses) using one of the following methods.
(a) Zone registration using the remote controller (RCS-SH80UG)
Refer to page 90.
(b) Zone registration using the system controller (SHA-KC64UG)
Refer to page 91.
(c) Automatic zone registration using the system controller (SHA-KC64UG)
Refer to page 92.
For methods (a) and (b), you should make a zone registration table manually before performing the registration as shown on the next page.
For method (c), zone registration is executed automatically, proceeding from the smallest indoor unit address and smallest central addresses to larger numbers in numerical order. For example:
Central address 123 456
ZONE–group 1-1 1-2 1-3 1-4 1-5 1-6
Indoor unit address 1-1 1-2 2-1 2-2 2-33-1
NOTE
An indoor unit address is assigned to each indoor unit during automatic address
1.
operation. Each indoor unit address combines an R.C. address and indoor unit number as follows:
: Indoor unit address (UNIT No.)1 – 1
Indoor unit No. Refrigerant circuit No. (R.C. address)
This address is displayed on the remote controller for UNIT No. when the UNIT
2.
button is pressed.
The central address represents the zone and group number. These addresses are assigned in ascending numerical order.
SC
89
Page 90
(a) Zone registration using the remote controller
(RCS-SH80UG)
(Determination of central address)
In this case, after confirming which indoor unit is connected to the remote controller and that the air conditioner in the OFF state, you set the central addresses one at a time.
If the system has no remote controller, connect a remote controller to the system temporarily. Then follow this procedure.
NOTE
The indoor unit address must already have been set before performing zone registration. If necessary, refer to the Installation Manual supplied with the outdoor unit.

9. HOW TO PROCESS TUBING
Deburring
The liquid tubing side is connected by a flare nut, and the gas tubing side is connected by brazing.
9-1. Connecting the Refrigerant Tubing
Use of the Flaring Method
Many conventional split system air conditioners employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes which run between indoor and outdoor units. In this method, the copper tubes are flared at each end and connected with flare nuts.
Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a
tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 12 – 20 in. longer than the tubing length you estimate.
(2) Remove burrs at each end of the copper tubing
with a tube reamer or file. This process is impor­tant and should be done carefully to make a good flare. Be sure to keep any contaminants (moisture, dirt, metal filings, etc.) from entering the tubing. (Figs. 9-1 and 9-2)

After
Fig. 9-1
Copper tubing
Reamer
Fig. 9-2
NOTE
When reaming, hold the tube end downward and be sure that no copper scraps fall into the tube. (Fig. 9-2)
(3) Remove the flare nut from the unit and be sure to
mount it on the copper tube.
(4) Make a flare at the end of the copper tube with a
flare tool.* (Fig. 9-3)
*Use “RIGID
®
” or equivalent.
NOTE
A good flare should have the following characteristics:
inside surface is glossy and smooth
edge is smooth
tapered sides are of uniform length

Caution Before Connecting Tubes Tightly
(1) Apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape to prevent dust
or water from entering the tubes before they are used.
(2) Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching
surfaces of the flare and union before connecting them together. This is effective for reducing gas leaks. (Fig. 9-4)
(3) For proper connection, align the union tube and flare
tube straight with each other, then screw on the flare nut lightly at first to obtain a smooth match. (Fig. 9-5)
Adjust the shape of the liquid tube using a tube bender at
the installation site and connect it to the liquid tubing side valve using a flare.
Apply refrigerant lubricant here and here

Cautions During Brazing
Replace air inside the tube with nitrogen gas to
prevent copper oxide film from forming during the brazing process. (Oxygen, carbon dioxide and Freon are not acceptable.)
Do not allow the tubing to get too hot during brazing.
The nitrogen gas inside the tubing may overheat, causing refrigerant system valves to become damaged. Therefore allow the tubing to cool when brazing.
Use a reducing valve for the nitrogen cylinder.
Do not use agents intended to prevent the formation
of oxide film. These agents adversely affect the refrigerant and refrigerant oil, and may cause damage or malfunctions.
9-2. Connecting Tubing between Indoor and
Outdoor Units
(1) Tightly connect the indoor-side refrigerant tubing extended
from the wall with the outdoor-side tubing.
(2) To fasten the flare nuts, apply specified torque as at right.
When removing the flare nuts from the tubing connec-
tions, or when tightening them after connecting the tubing, be sure to use 2 monkey wrenches or spanners as shown. (Fig. 9-6) If the flare nuts are over-tightened, the flare may be dam­aged, which could result in refrigerant leakage and cause injury or asphyxiation to room occupants.
When removing or tightening the gas tube flare nut, use 2
monkey wrenches together: one at the gas tube flare nut, and one at part A. (Fig. 9-7)
For the flare nuts at tubing connections, be sure to use
the flare nuts that were supplied with the unit, or else flare nuts for R410A (type 2). The refrigerant tubing that is used must be of the correct wall thickness as shown in the table at right.

Because the pressure is approximately 1.6 times higher than conventional refrigerant pressure, the use of ordinary flare nuts (type 1) or thin-walled tubes may result in tube rupture, injury, or asphyxiation caused by refrigerant leakage.
In order to prevent damage to the flare caused by
over-tightening of the flare nuts, use the table above as a guide when tightening.
When tightening the flare nut on the liquid tube, use a mon-
key wrench with a nominal handle length of 7-7/8 in.

Page 98
Do not use a spanner to tighten the valve stem caps.
Doing so may damage the valves.
Depending on the installation conditions, applying
excessive torque may cause the nuts to crack.
Precautions for Packed Valve Operation
If the packed valve is left for a long time with the valve
stem cap removed, refrigerant will leak from the valve. Therefore, do not leave the valve stem cap removed.
Use a torque wrench to securely tighten the valve stem
cap.

9-3. Insulating the Refrigerant Tubing
Tubing Insulation
Thermal insulation must be applied to all unit tubing,
including the distribution joint (purchased separately).
* For gas tubing, the insulation material must be heat
resistant to 248°F or above. For other tubing, it must be heat resistant to 176°F or above.
Insulation material thickness must be 13/32 in. or greater.
If the conditions inside the ceiling exceed DB 86°F and RH 70%, increase the thickness of the gas tubing insulation material by 1 step.
If the exterior of the outdoor unit
CAUTION
valves has been finished with a square duct covering, make sure you allow sufficient space to access the valves and to allow the panels to be attached and removed.
Taping the flare nuts
Wind the white insulation tape around the flare nuts at the gas tube connections. Then cover up the tubing connections with the flare insulator, and fill the gap at the union with the supplied black insulation tape. Finally, fasten the insulator at both ends with the supplied vinyl clamps. (Fig. 9-10)
Insulation material
The material used for insulation must have good insulation characteristics, be easy to use, be age resistant, and must not easily absorb moisture.
After a tube has been insulated,
CAUTION
never try to bend it into a nar­row curve because it can cause the tube to break or crack.

9-4. Taping the Tubes
(1) At this time, the refrigerant tubes (and electrical
wiring if local codes permit) should be taped together with armoring tape in 1 bundle. To prevent condensation from overflowing the drain pan, keep the drain hose separate from the refrigerant tubing.
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the
outdoor unit to the top of the tubing where it enters the wall. As you wrap the tubing, overlap half of each previous tape turn.
(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to the wall, using 1
clamp approx. each meter. (Fig. 9-12)

NOTE
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly since this will decrease the heat insulation effect. Also ensure that the condensation drain hose splits away from the bundle and drips clear of the unit and the tubing.
9-5. Finishing the Installation
After finishing insulating and taping over the tubing, use sealing putty to seal off the hole in the wall to prevent rain and draft from entering. (Fig. 9-13)
