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.
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
When Wiring
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.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYSTEM.
• 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 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
2. The standards for minimum room volume are as follows.
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.

The density limit of refrigerant which is used in multi air condi­tioners is 0.3 oz/ft.

(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 (353 oz)
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 353 oz. The possible amount of leaked refrigerant gas in rooms D, E and F is 529 oz.
e.g., charged amount (529 oz)
(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).
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.

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.” For tubes of ø7/8" (ø22.22 mm) or larger, use C1220 T-1/2H material or H material, and do not bend the 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 caps or tape to

1-2. Prevent impurities including water, dust and oxide from entering the tubing. Impurities can cause R410A refriger-
ant 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.
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
in the unit.
2-2. Since refrigerant composition changes and performance decreases when gas leaks, collect the remaining refriger-
ant 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.
Item compatible Remarks with R410A?
Manifold gauge Yes No Types of refrigerant, refrigerating machine oil, and pressure gauge are different.
Charge hose Yes No To resist higher pressure, material must be changed.
Vacuum pump Yes Yes Use a conventional vacuum pump if it is equipped with a check valve. If it has no check valve, purchase and attach a vacuum pump adapter.
Leak detector Yes No Leak detectors for CFC and HCFC that react to chlorine do not function because R410A contains no chlorine. Leak detector for HFC134a can be used for R410A.
Flaring oil Yes No For systems that use R22, apply mineral oil (Suniso oil) to the flare nuts on the tubing to prevent refrigerant leakage. For machines that use R407C or R410A, apply synthetic oil (ether oil) to the flare nuts.

3-2. Use R410A exclusive cylinder only.
New refrigerant R410A cannot be used for earlier models
1. Compressor specifications are different.
If recharging a R22 or R407C compressor with R410A, durability will significantly decrease since some of the materials used for compressor parts are different.
2. Existing tubing cannot be used (especially R22).
Completely cleaning out residual refrigerating
machine oil is impossible, even by flushing.
Valve
Single-outlet valve
(with siphon tube) Liquid refrigerant should be recharged with the cylinder standing on end as shown.

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.

1-11. 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 a leak detector.

The limit density of refrigerant which is used in this unit is

1-12. Installing Distribution Joint
Pay special attention to any
CAUTION
location, such as a basement, etc., where leaking refrigerant can accumulate, since refrig­erant gas is heavier than air.
(1) Refer to “HOW TO ATTACH DISTRIBUTION JOINT”
enclosed with the optional distribution joint kit (APR-CHRZP900BAB, RZP224BAB, RZP680BAB, RZP1350BAB).
(2) When creating a branch using a commercially available
T-joint (header joint system), orient the main tubing so that it is either horizontal (level) or vertical. 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.
[Header joint system]
Be sure to solidly weld shut the T-joint end (marked
by “X” in the figure). In addition, pay attention to the insertion depth of each connected tube so that the flow of refrigerant within the T-joint is not impeded.
When using the header joint system, do not make fur-
ther branches in the tubing.
Do not use the header joint system on the outdoor
unit side.
(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 15 - 3/4" of the distribution joint.)
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

NOTE
Notes on Installation
• Be sure to secure the valve body by using its structure with the suspension bolt, etc.
• Install the valve body within a distance of 98 ft. from the indoor unit. Some refrigerant noise will be produced. Therefore in hospitals, libraries, hotel guest rooms, and other quiet locations, it is recommended that the solenoid valve kit be installed on the ceiling reverse side of a hallway or another location separated from the room.
• When installing the valve body, install with the top surface facing up. Secure 7-7/8" or more of space to the front so that the front service panel can be removed.
• If the supplied suspension hook will not be used, and other fastening devices will be attached in the field, use the 4 screw holes on the top surface. DO NOT use any long screws other than the supplied screws. Use of other screws may puncture the internal tubing, resulting in refrigerant leakage.
• Do not block the air holes.

1-15. Example of Tubing Size Selection and Refrigerant Charge Amount
Additional refrigerant charging
Based on the values in Tables 1-10, 11, 12, 15 and 16-2 use the liquid tubing size and length, and calculate the amount of additional
refrigerant charge using the formula below.
Required additional refrigerant charge (oz)
(a) : Liquid tubing Total length of ø7/8" (ft.) (d) : Liquid tubing Total length of ø1/2" (ft.)
(b) : Liquid tubing Total length of ø3/4" (ft.) (e) : Liquid tubing Total length of ø3/8" (ft.)
(c) : Liquid tubing Total length of ø5/8" (ft.) (f ) : Liquid tubing Total 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.
However if only one outdoor unit is installed, a balance tube is not used. Therefore, leave the valves fully closed.)
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.
CAUTION
Example:
Outdoor unit
09053 model
Necessary Amount of Refrigerant Charge Per Unit + 3.93 × (a) + 2.78 × (b) + 1.99 × (c) + 1.38 × (d) +
=
0.602 × (e) + 0.279 × (f)
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.
Balance tube
Use a flathead screwdriver and open by turning the part with the screw groove to the right, from " " to " "
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.
09053 model
Liquid tube
Use a hex wrench (width 5/32 inch) and turn to the left to open.

Obtain liquid tubing size from Tables 1-10, 11, 12 and 15.
Main tubing
LA = ø5/8 (ft.) (Total capacity of indoor unit is 179,400 BTU/h) The longest tubing length in this example
LB = ø1/2 (ft.) (Total capacity of indoor unit is 131,600 BTU/h) (LA = 131 ft.)
LC = ø3/8 (ft.) (Total capacity of indoor unit is 83,800 BTU/h)

1: ø3/8 (ft.) 2: ø3/8 (ft.) 3: ø3/8 (ft.) 4: ø3/8 (ft.) (from indoor unit connection tubing)
Note that the charge amounts per 1 meter are different for each liquid tubing size.
ø5/8 (ft.) → LA : 131 ft. × 1.99 oz/ft. = 261 oz
ø1/2 (ft.) → LB : 16 ft. × 1.38 oz/ft. = 22 oz
ø3/8 (ft.) → LC +
A – B + 1 – 4 : 225 ft. × 0.602 oz/ft. = 135 oz
Total 418 oz
Additional refrigerant charge amount is 418 oz.
Remark:
When operating only one model CHDZ (R) 14053 or jointing with one more model, be sure to include the values in Table 1-16-2
Necessary Amount of Refrigerant Charge Per Unit.
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

(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)

Do not install an air bleeder as this may cause water to spray from the drain pipe outlet. (Fig. 3-8)
Page 30
X
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 (as short as possible)
33-15/32 in. or less

3-11. Installing the Drain Piping
(1) Prepare standard hard PVC pipe (O.D. 1-1/32") for
the drain and use the supplied hose band to prevent water leaks. (Fig. 3-33) The PVC pipe must be purchased separately. The transparent drain part on the unit allows you to check drainage.
(2) Installing the drain hose
To install the drain hose, first place 1 of the 2 hose bands
over the unit drain port and the other hose band over the hard PVC pipe (not supplied). Then connect both ends of the supplied drain hose. (Fig. 3-33) On the unit drain side, grasp the hose band with pliers and
insert the drain hose all the way to the base. If other commercially available hose bands are used, the
drain hose may become pinched or wrinkled and there is danger of water leakage. Therefore be sure to use the sup­plied hose bands. When sliding the hose bands, be careful to avoid scratching the drain hose. Do not use adhesive when connecting the supplied drain
hose to the drain port (either on the main unit or the PVC pipe). Reasons: 1. It may cause water to leak from the connec-
tion. 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.
Wrap the hose with the supplied drain hose insulation and
use the 4 twist ties so that the hose is insulated with no gaps.
Do not bend the supplied drain hose 90° or more. The hose
may slip off.
NOTE
Make sure 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 as this may cause water to spray from the drain pipe outlet. (Fig. 3-64)
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. 3-65)
Do not use natural drainage.
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. 3-66)
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. 3-67)
Provide insulation for any pipes that are run indoors.

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.
(2) Slowly pour approx. 0.2 gal of water into the drain pan
using a siphon pump through the air outlet grille. (Fig. 3-68)
(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.
CAUTION
Be careful since the fan will start when you short the pin on the indoor control board.

3-21. Suspending the Indoor Unit
Depending on the ceiling type:
• Insert suspension bolts as shown in Fig. 3-86
or
• Use existing ceiling supports or construct a suitable support as shown in Fig. 3-87.
WARNING
It is important that you use extreme care in supporting the indoor unit inside the ceiling. Ensure that the ceiling is strong enough to support the weight of the unit. Before hanging the unit, test the strength of each attached suspension bolt.
(1) When placing the unit inside the ceiling, determine the pitch of
the suspension bolts referring to the dimensional data on the previous page. (Fig. 3-84 and Table 3-3) Tubing must be laid and connected inside the ceiling when suspending the unit. If the ceiling is already constructed, lay the tubing into position for connection to the unit before placing the unit inside the ceiling.
(2) Screw in the suspension bolts allowing them to protrude from
the ceiling as shown in Fig. 3-86. (Cut the ceiling material, if nec­essary.)

3-22. Installing the Drain Piping
CAUTION
(1) Prepare standard hard PVC pipe (O.D. 1-1/4") for the drain
and use the supplied hose band to prevent water leaks. The PVC pipe must be purchased separately. The transparent drain part on the unit allows you to check drainage. (Fig. 3-91)
CAUTION
Align the hose band with end of the hose, and tighten so that it does not contact the bead.

(not supplied)
Do not use adhesive at the drain connection port on the indoor unit.
Insert the drain pipe until it contacts the socket, as shown in the figure at right, then secure it tightly with the hose band.
U
Do not use the supplied drain hose bent at a 90° angle. (The maximum permissible bend is 45°.)
Tighten the hose clamps so their locking nuts face upward. (Fig. 3-91)
(2) After connecting the drain piping securely, wrap the supplied
packing and drain pipe insulator around the pipe, then secure it with the supplied vinyl clamps. (Fig. 3-92)
NOTE
Make sure the drain pipe has a downward gradient (1/100 or more) and that there are no water traps.
Do not install an air bleeder as this may
cause water to spray from the drain pipe outlet. (Fig. 3-93)
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". Do not raise it any higher than 19-11/16", as this could result in water leaks. (Fig. 3-94)
Do not install the pipe with an upward gradient from the connec-
tion port. This will cause the drain water to flow backward and leak when the unit is not operating. (Fig. 3-95)
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. 3-96)

3-23. Checking the Drainage
After wiring and drain piping are completed, use the following proce-
Fig. 3-95
dure to check that the water will drain 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 (R, S terminals)
inside the electrical component box.
(2) Remove the tube cover and through the opening, slowly pour
approx. 0.3 gal of water into the drain pan to check drainage.
(3) Short the check pin (CHK) on the indoor control board and oper-
Fig. 3-96
ate the drain pump. Check the water flow through the transparent drain port and see if there is any leakage.

CAUTION
Be careful since the fan will start when you short the pin on the indoor control board.
(4) When the check of drainage is complete, open the check pin (CHK)
and remount the insulator and drain cap onto the drain inspection port.
3-24. 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.
Power supply outlet
Inter-unit control wiring
(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 Fig. 3-98.
(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 (in. WG) 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 24 type, the air flow is 635 CFM, while the external static pressure is
0.20 in. WG at “H” position. 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 as explained above.

3-27. Installing the Drain Piping
(1) Prepare standard hard PVC pipe (O.D. 1-1/4") for the
drain and use the supplied drain socket to prevent water leaks. The PVC pipe must be purchased separately. When doing this, apply adhesive for the PVC pipe at the connection point.
(2) If connecting a drain joint (supplied) to the threaded
drain port, first wrap the drain port threads with sealing tape, then connect the joint. (Fig. 3-105)
(3) After connecting the drain pipe securely, wrap insulator
(field supply) around the pipe.
(4) Ensure the drain pipe has a downward gradient (1/100
or more) and prepare traps as indicated in Fig. 3-106.
(5) Also, in another part of the pipe arrangement, prepare
traps with an inspection plug to clean dust or debris that may cause leaking of water. (Fig. 3-107)
(6) After connecting the drain piping, slowly pour water into
D
the drain pan to check that the water drains smoothly.
3-28. Caution for Ducting Work
This unit has high static pressure (applicable external stat­ic pressure Max. 0.68 – 0.88 in. WG. In the case of small pressure resistance (for instance, a short duct), install a damper for adjusting air flow volume as air flow volume / air flow noise increases.
If the air conditioner is to be installed in a room such as an office or meeting room which needs a low sound level, provide a supply and return noise absorption chamber with an acoustic liner.
Include an air filter (field supply) at the return duct.
3-29. Indoor Fan Performance
How to Read the Diagram
The vertical axis is the External Static Pressure (in. WG) while the horizontal axis represents the Air Flow (CFM). The characteristic curve for the “H,” “Med,” and “Lo” fan speed control. The nameplate values are shown based on the “H” air flow. Therefore in the case of 36 Type, the flow is 1059 CFM, while the External Static Pressure is 0.72 in. WG at “H” position. If the 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. (Fig. 3-108)

3-34. Installing the Drain Piping
Prepare standard PVC pipe for the drain and connect it to the indoor unit drain pipe with the supplied hose clamps to prevent water leaks.
(1) Drain hose connection
The drain hose is connected below the refrigerant tubing.
(2) Installing the drain hose
To install the drain hose, first place 1 of the 2 hose bands over the
unit drain port and the other hose band over the hard PVC pipe (not supplied). Then connect both ends of the supplied drain hose.
On the unit drain side, grasp the hose band with pliers and insert
the drain hose all the way to the base.
If other commercially available hose bands are used, the drain
hose may become pinched or wrinkled and there is danger of water leakage. Therefore be sure to use the supplied hose bands. When sliding the hose bands, be careful to avoid scratching the drain hose.
Do not use adhesive when connecting the supplied drain hose to
the drain port (either on the main unit or the PVC pipe).
Wrap the hose with the supplied drain hose insulation and use the
4 twist ties so that the hose is insulated with no gaps.
Connect the drain piping so that it slopes downward from the unit
to the outside. (Fig. 3-129)
CAUTION
Attach so that the hose band fastener is
on the side of the drain port. (Fig. 3-130)
Attach the hose bands so that each is
approximately 13/64 – 63/64 in. from the end of the supplied drain hose.

Do not apply a monkey wrench to the hexagonal part.
Do not use two monkey wrenches when removing or installing the balance tube flare nut. In particular, do not apply a monkey wrench to the hexagonal part at the top of the valve. (If force is applied to this part, gas leakage will occur.)
Precautions for brazing
Use two monkey wrenches, as shown in the figure, when removing the liquid tube valve flare nut.
1. Do not apply a wrench to the valve cap when removing or installing the flare nuts. Doing so may damage the valve.
2. If the valve cap is left off for a long period of time, refrigerant leakage will occur. Therefore, do not leave the valve cap off.
3. Applying refrigerant oil to the flare surface can be effective in preventing gas leakage, however be sure to use a refrigerant oil which is suitable for the refrigerant that is used in the system. (This unit utilizes R410A refrigerant, and the refrigerant oil is ether oil (synthetic oil). However, hub oil (synthetic oil) can also be used.)
Be sure to replace the air inside the tube with nitrogen to prevent oxide film from forming during the brazing process. Be sure to use a damp cloth or other means to cool the valve unit during brazing.

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, please refer to 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 manufacture, because special purpose tools are required.

6. HOW TO PROCESS TUBING
The liquid tubing side is connected by a flare nut, and the gas
tubing side is connected by brazing.
6-1. Connecting the Refrigerant Tubing
Use of the Flaring Method
Many of 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.
Before
Deburring
After
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. 1 – 2 ft. longer
than the tubing length you estimate.
(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a tube
reamer or file. This process is important and should be
done carefully to make a good flare. (Fig. 6-1)
NOTE
When reaming, hold the tube end downward and be sure that
no copper scraps fall into the tube. (Fig. 6-2)
(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 copper tube with a flare tool.*
(Fig. 6-3)
®
(*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

Page 77
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 match-
ing surfaces of the flare and union before connecting them together. This is effective for reducing gas leaks. (Fig. 6-4)
(3) For proper connection, align the union tube and
flare tube straight with each other, then screw in the flare nut lightly at first to obtain a smooth match. (Fig. 6-5)
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.
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 for-
mation of oxide film. These agents adversely affect the refrigerant and refrigerant oil, and may cause damage or malfunctions.
6-2. 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
connections, or when tightening them after connect­ing the tubing, be sure to use 2 monkey wrenches or spanners as shown. (Fig. 6-6) If the flare nuts are over-tightened, the flare may be damaged, which could result refrigerant leakage and cause in injury or asphyxiation to room occupants.
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.

(1000 – 1200 kgf
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 monkey wrench with a nominal handle length of 7-7/8 in.

6-3. Insulating the Refrigerant Tubing
Tubing Insulation
Thermal insulation must be applied to all unit tubing,
including the distribution joint (purchased separately). (Fig. 6-7)
* 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 25/64 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 use
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. 6-8)
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.
CAUTION
After a tube has been insulated,
never try to bend it into a narrow
curve because it can cause the
tube to break or crack.

6-4. Taping the Tubes
(1) At this time, the refrigerant tubes (and electrical wir-
ing if local codes permit) should be taped together with armoring tape in 1 bundle. To prevent the 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 out-
door 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 ft. (Fig. 6-10)
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.
6-5. 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. 6-11)

7. AIR PURGING
Air and moisture in the refrigerant system may have undesirable effects as indicated below.
pressure in the system rises
operating current rises
cooling (or heating) efficiency drops
moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and block capillary tubing
water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant system
Therefore, the indoor unit and tubing between the indoor and outdoor unit must be leak tested and evacu­ated to remove any noncondensables and moisture from the system.
Air Purging with a Vacuum Pump (for Test Run)
Preparation
Check that each tube between the indoor and outdoor units have been properly connected and all wiring for the test run has been completed. Remove the valve caps from all service ports on the outdoor unit. (Fig. 7-2) Note that all service valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at this stage. The balance tube leak test is not necessary if only 1 outdoor unit is installed.
Leak test
(1) Attach a manifold valve (with pressure gauges) and
dry nitrogen gas cylinder to all service ports with charge hoses.
The balance tube leak test is not necessary if only 1
outdoor unit is installed.
Use a manifold valve for air
CAUTION
(2) Pressurize the system to no more than 469 psig
(33 kgf/cm

(3) Do a leak test of all joints of the tubing (both indoor
and outdoor) and all service valves. Bubbles indicate a leak. Wipe off the soap with a clean cloth after a leak test.
(4) After the system is found to be free of leaks, relieve
the nitrogen pressure by loosening the charge hose connector at the nitrogen cylinder. When the system pressure is reduced to normal, disconnect the hose from the cylinder.
Evacuation
(1) Attach the charge hose end described in the preced-
ing steps to the vacuum pump to evacuate the tub­ing and indoor unit. Confirm that the “Lo” knob of the manifold valve is open. Then, run the vacuum pump. The operation time for evacuation varies with the tubing length and capacity of the pump. The follow­ing table shows the amount of time for evacuation:

NOTE
The required time in the above table is calculated based on the assumption that the ideal (or target) vacuum condition is less than –14.7 psig (–755 mm Hg, 5 Torr).
(2) When the desired vacuum is reached, close the “Lo”
knob of the manifold valve and turn off the vacuum pump. Please confirm that the gauge pressure is under –14.7 psig (–755 mm Hg, 5 Torr) after 4 to 5 minutes of vacuum pump operation.

liquid tube length as shown in Section 1-8 “Additional Refrigerant Charge”) using the liquid tube service valve. (Fig. 7-5)
Use a balance or scale to measure the refrigerant
accurately.
If the additional refrigerant charge amount cannot be
charged at once, charge the remaining refrigerant in liquid form by using the suction tube service valve with the system in Cooling mode at the time of test run. (Fig. 7-6)
Close the valve on the cylinder containing R410A.
Finishing the job
(1) With a flathead screwdriver, turn the liquid tube ser-
vice valve counter-clockwise to fully open the valve.
(2) Turn the all service valve counter-clockwise to fully
open the valve.
(3) Close all stop valves and loosen the “LO” knob of
the manifold valve.
(4) Loosen the charge hose connected to all service
port, then remove the hose.
(5) Replace all valve caps at all service ports and fasten
them securely.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump. The air conditioner is now ready for a test run.

2. Some metal edges and the fins are sharp and may cause injury if handled improperly; be especially careful when you clean these parts.
3. The internal coil and other components must be cleaned regularly. Consult your dealer or service center.
Air filter
The air filter collects dust and other particles from the air and should be cleaned at regular intervals as indicated in the table below or when the filter indication (
) on the display of the remote control unit (wired type) shows that the filter needs cleaning. If the filter gets blocked, the efficiency of the air conditioner drops greatly.
Type Period
X, XM 6 months
NOTE
The frequency with which the filter should be cleaned depends on the environment in which the unit is used.
<How to clean the filter>
1. Remove the air filter from the air intake grille.
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove light dust. If there is sticky dust on the filter, wash the
filter in lukewarm, soapy water, rinse it in clean water, and dry it.
<How to remove the filter>
1. Use a screwdriver to remove the bolt screw on each side for the two latches. (Be sure to
reattach the two bolt screws after cleaning.)
2. Press on the two latches of the air intake grille with your thumbs in the direction of the arrow to open the grille.
3. Open the air intake grille downward.
When cleaning the air filter, never remove the safety chain. If it is necessary to remove it
CAUTION
for servicing and maintenance inside, be sure to reinstall the safety chain securely (hook on the grille side) after the work.
When the filter has been removed, rotating parts (such as the fan), electrically charged
areas, etc. will be exposed in the unit’s opening. Bear in mind the dangers that these parts and areas pose, and proceed with the work carefully.
