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.
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).

(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
prevent dirt, moisture, or other foreign substances from entering. These substances
can result in system malfunction.

over 5/128 (1.0)
over 3/64 (1.15)
over
Unit: in. (mm)
3/64 (1.20)
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.
ItemcompatibleRemarkswith 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.

* Using tools for R22 and R407C and new tools for R410A together can cause defects.
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

(with siphon tube)
Liquid refrigerant should be recharged
with the cylinder standing on end as
shown.
Liquid
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.

limit for the room in which the
unit is installed.
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.
(Total refrigerant charged amount: oz)
(Min. indoor volume where the indoor unit is installed: 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.)
tubing to the malfunctioning unit will accumulate
and may damage the compressor.)
Minimum indoor volume & floor area as against the
amount of refrigerant is roughly as given in the following table.
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.
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

(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.

(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.

●
NOTE
CAUTION
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. 3-8)
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
0 – 45°

(2) Slowly pour approx. 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.
(1) Check that the ceiling hole is within this range:
33-55/64 × 33-55/64 to 35-53/64 × 35-53/64 in.
must be within the range of 15/32 – 43/64 in. (Fig. 3-13)

3-10. Placing the Unit Inside the Ceiling
(1) When placing the unit inside the ceiling, determine
the pitch of the suspension bolts using the supplied
full-scale installation diagram. (Fig. 3-31)
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" as shown in
the diagram. (Fig. 3-31)
(3) Thread the 3 hexagonal nuts and 2 washers (field
supply) onto each of the 4 suspension bolts as
shown in the diagram. 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. (Fig. 3-32)
(4) Adjust so that the distance between the unit and the
ceiling bottom is 33/64" to 45/64". Tighten the nuts
on the upper side and lower side of the suspension
lug. (Fig. 3-32)
(5) Remove the protective polyethylene used to protect
(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
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 2.78 ft. above the bottom surface of the
ceiling. Under no conditions attempt to raise it higher
than 2.78 ft. above the bottom surface of the ceiling.
Doing so will result in water leakage. (Fig. 3-34)
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. 3-35)
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. 3-36)
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.
Water drain
(1) Connect power to the power terminal board (R, S
terminals) inside the electrical component box.
(2) Slowly pour approx. 0.13 gal of water into the drain
pan to check drainage. (Fig. 3-37)
(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.
Be careful since the fan will start
CAUTION
when you short the pin on the
indoor control board.

Adjust the louver to the desired angle using the remote controller. The louver also has an automatic air-sweeping mechanism.
●
NOTE
Never attempt to move the louver by hand.
●
Proper air flow depends on the location of the air conditioner, the layout of the room and furniture, etc. If cooling or heating seems
●
inadequate, try changing the direction of the air flow.
It is important that you use extreme care in
supporting the indoor unit from 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.
(3) Calculate the suspension bolt pitch using the full-
size installation diagram (printed on the package).
The relationship between the positions of the
suspension lugs, unit, and ceiling panel is as
shown in Fig. 3-53.
(4) Cut the ceiling material, if necessary.
(Figs. 3-52 and 3-53)
If the system requires fresh air to be drawn into the unit,
cut and remove the insulation (both externally and
internally) at the location shown as
Be sure to use a level gauge
and confirm that the unit is
level. If it is not level, water
leakage may occur.
(1) Use the supplied M5 or 3/16" screws (4) to attach
the full-size installation diagram to the indoor unit
suspension lugs, in order to obtain the ceiling
opening dimensions for suspending the unit. (Fig.
3-56)
Caution: Piping and wiring work must be performed
inside the ceiling after the unit is suspended.
Therefore if the ceiling is already installed, the
wiring and piping work should be completed
up to the connection points prior to
suspending the unit.
(2) Attach the special washers (supplied) and nuts (field
supply) to the suspension bolts (4 locations).

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. 3-64)
●
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)

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.
This air conditioner is usually installed above the ceiling
so that the indoor unit and ducts are not visible. Only the
air intake and air outlet ports are visible from below.
●
The minimum space for installation and service is shown
in Fig. 3-100.

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.
Never allow traps to occur in the course of the piping.
●
Insulate any piping inside the room to prevent drip-
ping.
●
After the drain piping, pour water into the drain pan to
check that the water drains smoothly.
●
If the drain hose is to be raised, use the optional drain
up kit.
The drain hose can be raised 23-5/8" above the top of
the main unit. (For details, refer to the manual of the

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.

(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.

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.
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

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.

Never grasp the drain or refrigerant connecting outlets
when moving the unit.
(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)
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

use a stop valve for this purpose. The “Hi” knob of the
manifold valve must always
be kept closed.

(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:

Evacuation is not necessary for the balance tube if
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.

●
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.
Before attempting to start the air conditioner,
check the following.
(1) The control wiring is correctly connected and all
electrical connections are tight.
(2) The transportation pads for the indoor fan have
been removed. If not, remove them now.
(3) The power has been connected to the unit for at
least 5 hours before starting the compressor. The
bottom of the compressor should be warm to the
touch and the crankcase heater around the feet of
the compressor should be hot to the touch.
(Fig. 8-1)
(4) If only 1 outdoor unit is installed, close the service
valve on the balance tubes, and open the service
valve on the other 3 tubes (suction, discharge, and
liquid tubes). (Fig. 8-2)
If 2 or 3 outdoor units are installed, open the service
valves on all 4 tubes (suction, discharge, liquid, and
balance tubes). (Fig. 8-2)
(5) Request that the customer be present for the trial
run.
Explain the contents of the instruction manual, then
have the customer actually operate the system.
(6) Be sure to give the instruction manual and warranty
certificate to the customer.
(7) When replacing the control PCB, be sure to make all
the same settings on the new PCB as were in use
before replacement.
The existing EEP ROM is not changed, and is connected to the new control PCB.
