DESIGN INFORMATION
AS SUPPLIED the air curtain operates on a 1 phase electrical supply (1L+N+E) from a local
switched spur which provides power for fans and controls. There is an integral defrost cycle auxiliary heater located inside the air curtain but this is ‘disabled’ as supplied. If the defrost cycle auxiliary heater is required the air curtain will then need a 3 phase electrical supply (3L+N+E) from a local switched spur, instead of the 1 phase electrical supply, to provide power for the heater as well which will need to be ‘enabled’ on site during commissioning, see also notes on Page 6 and Section 'Installation - Electrical Supply and Wiring to the Air Curtain', Page 14. There is also a communications link with the Mr Slim outdoor unit via connections S2 and S3 (S1 is not used).
AS SUPPLIED the air curtain is set up for energy saving Weather Compensation Control
or Discharge Air Temperature Control and is used with a Mitsubishi Electric PAR-W21
MAA Remote Controller. The following functions are available:-
On/Off control of the Mitsubishi Electric heat pump system Mode change between Heating mode and Fan only mode (Cooling mode not
available)
Energy saving weather compensation control or discharge air temperature control via
a set target temperature.
Signal for when the outdoor unit is in defrost mode so the defrost cycle auxiliary heater
(if enabled) can provide partial heat back-up during the few minutes of defrost.
Error signal for if the Mitsubishi Electric heat pump system has a problem
Weather Compensation Control (HEATING ECO): This looks at the outside air
temperature using an air sensor on the Mitsubishi Electric outdoor unit and automatically adjusts the temperature of the air curtain discharge air in accordance with a heating curve. It will select a warmer discharge air stream if it is cold outside and a cooler discharge air stream if it is not so cold outside, as the discharge air does not need to be as warm. This achieves significant energy and carbon savings because the heat pump compressor only works at the capacity it needs to. Figure 1 shows a typical heating curve set up for weather compensation control, temperature points 1, 2, 3 and 4 are selected during commissioning.
Discharge Air Temperature Control (HEATING): The end user sets a target temperature
of, say 35°C, the air curtain then controls the temperature of the discharge air so it will stay at 35°C even if the inlet air temperature changes.

The air curtain can also be set up on site during commissioning to operate under Inlet Air Temperature Control or Room Air Temperature Control and is then used with a
Mitsubishi Electric PAR-30 MAA Remote Controller. The following functions are available:-
On/Off control of the Mitsubishi Electric heat pump system Mode change between Heating mode and Fan only mode, with Cooling mode also
available if enabled during commissioning and with a condensate disposal system
Capacity control of the Mitsubishi Electric heat pump system Temperature monitoring of the inlet air entering the heat pump air curtain, or the room
air temperature at the remote controller
Signal for when the outdoor unit is in defrost mode so the defrost cycle auxiliary heater
(if enabled) can provide partial heat back-up during the few minutes of defrost.
Error signal for if the Mitsubishi Electric heat pump system has a problem
Refer to a Mitsubishi Electric agent if the air curtain is to be controlled via a Building Management System (BMS) or Centralised Controller.
It should be noted that during heating mode, if the outdoor unit goes into its defrost cycle during cold weather, the air curtain fans will continue to operate to maintain the all­important air stream across the doorway. It is this air stream, particularly towards the top of the doorway, which is so effective at stopping buoyant warm air from inside the building escaping to outside and wasting energy and also in reducing airborne contamination.
The temperature of the discharge air can be low during the 6 to 7 minute defrost cycle period that may occur every few hours under particular outdoor weather conditions but this has rarely become an issue with the end user and is really only a perceived problem. There is a defrost cycle auxiliary heater fitted in the air curtain which is disabled when the air curtain is delivered. If there are concerns for a particular installation this defrost cycle auxiliary heater can be enabled during site commissioning and this will maintain the discharge air at a higher temperature during the defrost cycle. A 3-phase electrical supply is then required to power the air curtain.
Point of Information: If used, an auxiliary defrost heater may seem counter-productive for
a heat pump system. When put into context, however, the auxiliary heater fitted is of low output for the size of the air curtain, it will just temper the discharge air and is only used for a few minutes a day during a small period of the year. Tests at the Building Research Establishment (BRE) test house on the heat pump air curtain system showed that even with the auxiliary heater cutting in during defrost, as it has to during their EN14511 performance test, the annual seasonal COP was hardly affected.
Cooling is possible if the air curtain is modified during commissioning to operate under
Inlet Air Temperature Control or Room Air Temperature Control. It will not operate in cooling if set-up to operate under Weather Compensation Control or Discharge Air Temperature Control, which is how the air curtain is supplied.
The air curtain is supplied with its cooling mode disabled, although an integral condensate drain tray is fitted inside the air curtain so it could be used in cooling mode during warm weather, if so desired. This should be decided at the design stage as a condensate drain system will need to be installed if cooling is required and extended to a suitable drain by the installer. The condensate can be drained by gravity by connecting suitable condensate hose onto the 15mm drain pipe on the condensate drain tray inside the air curtain. If a gravity condensate drain is not visually suitable it will be necessary to remove condensate using a condensate pump, supplied and fitted by the installer. The condensate pump can
Page 7
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 7 of 38
be located inside the right hand end of the air curtain or in a remote location outside of the unit if required. It must be of sufficient capacity, see Page 19, self priming and capable of providing the appropriate suction head so the pump will lift condensate out of the air curtain, particularly if it is in a remote location. There are two hole penetrations at the right hand end of the air curtain for condensate pipework to pass through, see Figure 2, Page
11. Suitable condensate pumps are Peristaltic or Rotary Diaphragm type. We recommend the Blue Diamond rotary diaphragm type with cooling signal sensor (drainStik) manufactured by Charles Austen Pumps Ltd. (www.miniblue.co.uk).
If using a condensate pump it is recommended that it has the facility so it only operates when the air curtain is in cooling mode by detection of water in the drain tray or by detecting a cooling differential in the airflow. It should also have a pump overrun feature to empty the drain tray as much as possible when the air curtain is switched off. It should have an alarm system with appropriate sensor fitted in the drain tray that will give a volt­free signal (closed circuit = alarm) and stop the air curtain cooling if the condensate drain tray is in danger of flooding (air curtain fans will continue to operate). There is a fixing bracket with 8mm diameter hole attached to the drain tray inside the air curtain so a condensate sensor can be fixed in the tray by the installer. The hole can be enlarged, if necessary, to suit the type of sensor used so it is located in the tray at the appropriate position, see the manufacturer’s instructions that come with the condensate pump for further information. A 230V AC, single phase electrical supply is provided inside the air curtain to power a condensate pump and a condensate alarm connection is provided for the condensate pump alarm circuit.
Warning: The air curtain condensate collection system is designed to remove condensate
with the air curtain operating in cooling mode during normal summer weather conditions in countries with a temperate climate. In case of extreme weather conditions, drain tray blockage or condensate pump failure, which can occur, it is vital that the design of the floor beneath the air curtain and its surface is such that it will not become slippery or damaged if it became wet. This is similar to the conditions that might be experienced with heavy rainfall in at an open doorway or wet pedestrian foot traffic, so careful consideration must be paid to the design of the floor and its surface finish.
If it is intended that the air curtain should not operate in cooling mode (which is how the air curtain is supplied) and a condensate drain system is not fitted, it is still recommended that the floor design and surface be as described above, in case cooling mode is used in the future and also to cope with heavy rainfall or wet pedestrian foot traffic.
The air curtain is designed only for use with a Mitsubishi Electric Mr Slim Outdoor Unit for use on R410A. The complete Thermoscreens air curtain / Mitsubishi Electric heat pump system, including refrigerant pipework, wiring, controls, etc. must be installed only by an approved Mitsubishi Electric refrigeration contractor.
Persons using the air curtain must be given adequate instruction and supervision concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. The air curtain is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities.
These instructions must be read in conjunction with the separate Mitsubishi Electric instructions that come with the Mr Slim Outdoor Unit. All instructions should be kept by the building facilities manager for future reference.

INSTALLATION OF THE AIR CURTAIN
The air curtain is designed to be surface mounted inside a building and located horizontally over a doorway. It must not be installed on the outside of the building, or built into a cabinet or recessed in anyway.
Location
The air curtain must be mounted so the discharge grille is located up to 3.2m maximum above floor level and as close to the doorway as possible. It must be installed level or condensate may leak out if used for cooling. It is recommended to leave a gap of 250mm minimum above the air curtain to allow for pipework brazing operations. Beware of doorway top edges, structural beams, door opening/closure devices, etc. which may interfere with the air stream and affect the location of the unit.
Wall Fixing
Bolt all of the wall brackets supplied to the rear face of the unit as shown in the adjacent picture using the M10 bolts supplied. Suitable wall fixing bolts (not supplied) need to be used to fix the brackets to the wall, taking into account the type of wall and the weight of the unit*, see table:
Air Curtain Weight (kg)
HP1000 DXE 46
HP1500 DXE 67
HP2000 DXE 84
Step 1. Refer to Figure 2, Page 11 for mounting details
and drill the fixing points in the wall.
Step 2. Screw in the top wall bolts leaving a small gap between the head and the wall.
Lower the unit onto the bolts via the key-hole slots in the top of the wall brackets and then screw in the bottom wall bolts.
Step 3. Ensure all fixing bolts are tightened and the air curtain is safely secured to the
wall.
Ceiling Suspension
M10 threaded inserts are provided in the top face of the unit (see Figure 2, Page 11 for positions) so it can be suspended on M10 threaded hanging rods (not provided). All suspension points must be used. Ensure each of the hanging rods is secured onto a suitable structure that can
support the weight of the unit (see table above)*. Screw
the hanging rods into the inserts by a minimum or 20mm and fit locking nuts (not provided) to prevent the rod rotating and coming away from the casing. Do not screw the hanging rod too far in or it could interfere with internal components.
* It is the sole responsibility of the installer to ensure that the building fixing locations and suspension system
used are suitable for the air curtain being installed.

Outputs based on:- Indoor air temperature = 20ºC. Outdoor condition = 7/6 db/wb ºC for heating output, 35/27 db/wb ºC for cooling output. Performance figures derived from independent testing by UK test houses BRE and BSRIA in accordance with test standard EN14511. Noise testing carried out at Sound Research Laboratories to ISO3741 and BS4856-4. See Table on Page 23 for more details of air volume flow rates and noise levels.
* Alternative larger outdoor unit will give enhanced heat output for difficult doorway situations - not
recommended, however, for weather compensation control or discharge air temperature control.
Refrigerant Pipework
This must be carried out before connection of any electrical and controls cables and in accordance with the Instructions that come with the Mitsubishi Electric Outdoor Unit. This work must only be undertaken by a Mitsubishi Electric approved Contractor.
Contact Mitsubishi Electric for recommended pipework sizes, pipework lengths, numbers of fittings, etc.
The installation must be carried out in accordance with the Mitsubishi Electric Installation Manual that comes with the outdoor unit.
It is intended that refrigerant pipe connections to the air curtain are made using brazed joints and these must be carried out in a professional and safe manner. If installation pipe sizes for the discharge (gas) line and liquid line are different from the pipe connection sizes on the air curtain (see Figure 2, Page 11) suitable pipe reducers must be used for the connection. R410A refrigerant systems can operate at pressures up to 610 psi (c. 42 Bar). These brazed joints may well be located in a public area and a weakness leading to an explosion could be extremely dangerous.
The air curtain with its coil is manufactured in accordance with the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and the installation must be carried out to a good standard of workmanship. Remove the protective plastic film on top of the air curtain before starting work and protect the top surface of the air curtain. Use a heat sink on the copper pipes during brazing to reduce the transfer of heat to the inside of the air curtain where sensitive components are located.

access panel
screw
To gain access inside the Air Curtain
To gain access for connection of the electrical supply, controls wiring and to work on the unit during commissioning, remove the air inlet grilles and the bottom access panel.
First remove the plastic end caps at each end of the unit, if already fitted, by pulling off to the side (see picture).
Then remove each inlet grille in turn with its filter by unfastening the quarter-turn Philips Head fastener at the bottom corner of the grille. Use a Philips No.1 screwdriver to access the screw via the elongated hole at the bottom corner of each grille and turn anti­clockwise to remove (see picture).
To remove the bottom access panel unfasten the access panel securing screws, one at each end, plus two in the centre (HP1500 DXE and HP2000 DXE units) and slide the panel out forwards (see picture).
Please note: All the panels of the air curtain are covered in a protective plastic film which should now be removed.
Page 14
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 14 of 38
Electrical Supply and Wiring to the Air Curtain
This must be carried out AFTER the connection of the refrigerant pipework. All electrical wiring and connections MUST be carried out by a competent qualified electrician in accordance with the latest edition of the IEE wiring regulations and/or local statutory regulations. (see also Wiring Diagrams 1 & 2 on Page 16/17)
A local isolator having a contact separation of at least 3mm on all poles must be
fitted in the 1 phase electrical supply (1L + N + E) to the air curtain and located in an accessible position adjacent to the unit.
Do not have a switch or isolator in the S2, S3 (Comms Link), use continuous wire.
If the defrost cycle auxiliary heater is to be used the air curtain then requires a 3
phase electrical supply (3L + N + E) to the air curtain instead of a 1 phase electrical supply. A local isolator having a contact separation of at least 3mm on all poles must be fitted in the 3 phase electrical supply and located in an accessible position adjacent to the unit. The defrost cycle auxiliary heater will need to be enabled during commissioning (see Section ‘Design Information’ – Page 5 and Section ‘Commissioning’ Page 20).
The appliance must be connected using cables having an appropriate temperature
rating (heat resistant).
Ensure that the supply cables, circuit breakers and other electrical installation
equipment are correctly sized for the air curtain being installed. See Table below.
A 25mm size cable gland or conduit connector should be used for the Electrical
Supply into the air curtain. See Figure 2, Page 11 showing where the electrical supply enters the unit.
This appliance must be Earthed.

Wiring of Air Curtain Fan Speed
As delivered the air curtain is link wired to operate on a single fan speed at its medium speed, see picture opposite. Current thinking for air curtain technology, however, is to have a Door-Switch wired to switch the unit between a Higher fan speed - Door Open and a Lower fan speed - Door Closed. This is both energy efficient and noise friendly. Alternatively a single fan speed, High, Medium or Low, can be set at commissioning to suit the general weather conditions of the site. Both methods prevent the end user switching fan speeds and maybe leaving the air curtain on an unsuitable setting.
If the end user does require remote fan speed switching, however, there is a wall mounted 3-speed fan switch supplied with the air curtain which can be fitted next to the Mitsubishi Electric PAR-W21MAA or PAR­30MAA Remote Controller. The end user
can then remotely select High, Medium or Low fan speeds if they choose to.
A door switch, wire link for single speed or the 3-speed fan switch is wired to terminals FAN, HIGH, MED and LOW in the Air Curtain using 230V mains rated double insulated cable of size 0.75mm2. See also Wiring Diagram 1 or 2 on Pages 16 and 17 and Section, Commissioning; ‘Selecting the fan speeds of the air curtain’ on page 22 which gives details as to how the available speeds of the six speed fan motor(s) can be set to suit outdoor environmental conditions and indoor noise levels.
Condensate Disposal System
Cooling is only possible if the air curtain is modified during commissioning to operate
under Inlet Air Temperature Control or Room Air Temperature Control. It will not operate in cooling if set-up to operate under Weather Compensation Control or Discharge Air Temperature Control, which is how the air curtain is supplied.
If it is intended to use the air curtain in cooling mode the plug must be removed from CNX5 on the PAC-IF010 Interface PCB (see Wiring Diagrams 1 & 2 on Pages 16 and 17) and a condensate disposal system must be installed.
The air curtain is fitted with a condensate drain tray with 15mm copper outlet pipe at the right hand side of the air curtain. Suitable condensate hose can be fitted to the pipe (see picture) and fed through a 20mm hole at the back of the unit, see Figure 2, Page 11, so condensate will gravity drain away. Means of condensate disposal must then be provided at the rear of the air curtain.
If it is not practical to gravity drain from the air curtain a suitable condensate pump (not supplied with the unit) can be supplied and fitted by the installer to remove condensate directly from the unit. The condensate pump must be of sufficient capacity (see Table below) and if located higher than the drain tray; self priming and capable of providing the appropriate suction head so the pump will lift condensate out from the top of the air curtain. Suitable condensate pumps with a suction head are Peristaltic or Rotary
Page 19
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 19 of 38
Diaphragm type. It is recommended that the condensate pump has the facility so it only operates when the air curtain is in cooling mode by detection of water in the drain tray or by detecting a cooling differential in the airflow. It should also have a pump overrun to empty the drain tray as much as possible when the air curtain is switched off. We recommend the Blue Diamond rotary diaphragm type with cooling signal sensor (drainStik) manufactured by Charles Austen Pumps Ltd. (www.miniblue.co.uk).

There is space inside the air curtain at the right hand end of the unit to mount a condensate pump. A permanent 230V AC, single phase electrical supply is provided inside the air curtain at the DIN-Rail terminals to power the pump. See Wiring Diagrams 1 & 2 on Pages 16 and 17. There are two 20mm condensate outlet holes in the casing, one at the top of the unit and a lower one at the rear, both fitted with rubber plugs (see Figure 2, Page 11). These can be used to feed a hose from the condensate pump to a remote condensate drain.
Condensate drain hose should be pushed through either of the two condensate outlet holes after removing the plug and connected to the condensate pump using the adapter supplied with the pump. It may be necessary to extend the hose if the pump is remotely located.
Whether a gravity drain system or a condensate pump is used to remove the condensate there should be an alarm system with appropriate sensor fitted in the drain tray that will give a volt-free signal (closed circuit = alarm). A 2-wire condensate alarm signal should be wired back to the condensate alarm connection provided at the Interface PCB inside the air curtain. This will stop the air curtain cooling if the condensate drain tray is in danger of flooding, bringing up an error code on the Mitsubishi Electric system (air curtain fans will continue to operate).
There is a fixing bracket with 8mm diameter hole attached to the drain tray inside the air curtain so a condensate alarm sensor can be fixed in the tray by the installer. Hinge the drain tray down to gain better access to the fixing bracket (see picture and Section, Servicing – Page 33). Enlarge the hole if necessary to suit the type of sensor being used so it is located in the tray at the appropriate position. If a condensate pump is being used see the manufacturers instructions that come with the pump for further information.
Page 20
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 20 of 38
COMMISSIONING THE AIR CURTAIN
Ensure that the electrical supply to the Mitsubishi Electric Outdoor Unit and, if applicable, the 3-phase local electrical supply to the Air Curtain, are switched off.
Air Curtain Checks
Check that the components inside the air curtain are as shown in the picture below. If the defrost cycle auxiliary heater has been enabled check that the thermal overheat cut­out switch(s) has not ‘tripped’. Press the reset button at the top of the unit (2 on a HP2000 DXE unit). If the cut-out switch has tripped it will click back on – see picture
There is a Mitsubishi Electric Interface PCB located within the left hand end of the Thermoscreens Air Curtain. This provides control and communication between the Mitsubishi Electric Outdoor Unit and the Air Curtain Indoor Unit. It is held in place by a fixing screw located in the left-hand end panel of the air curtain under the left-hand plastic end cap. Remove the screw and carefully slide the PCB partially out. For easier withdrawal of the PCB the filter indicator connection may be temporarily removed.

If the air curtain is going to be operated under Inlet Air Temperature Control the air temperature sensor (marked red) needs to be removed from its temperature pocket in the air discharge plenum of the unit and fitted in the inlet air to the fan on the bracket provided, see pictures showing this.
If the air curtain is going to be operated under Room Air Temperature Control it does not matter where the air temperature sensor (marked red) is located as air temperature sensing is now done at the PAR-30MAA Remote Controller. The PAR-30MAA Remote Controller will need to be set up via its Installer Menu so that temperature sensing is done at the controller. See instructions that come with the controller. Check that the dip switches on the Interface PCB are set as follows:

See also Section, Installation; ‘Wiring of Air Curtain Fan Speed’ on Page 18 giving details of how to wire in fan speeds.
Sound pressure levels dB(A) at 3m distance are for a single air curtain mounted at its maximum mounting height, operating in a room with average acoustic characteristics as defined in CIBSE Guide B5 (reverberation time 0.7s at 1kHz) and a room size equivalent to 8 air changes per hour (ac/h). Care needs to be taken when selecting air curtains for an installation as noise levels can be several dB higher if the mounting height is reduced, if the room is more ‘live’ (i.e. hard surfaces, no furnishings or absorbent materials), if the room is smaller than 8 ac/h equivalent or a combination of these factors. Noise levels will also increase if more than one air curtain is installed at the same doorway (e.g. +3dB(A) for 2 equal point sources: direct field).
Page 24
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 24 of 38
Starting the Heat Pump System
Carry out a final inspection to ensure that all wiring is in accordance with Wiring Diagram 1 on Page 16 or wiring Diagram 2 on Page 17 and that all connections have been properly made. Ensure that the refrigerant system is complete, there are no leaks and there is sufficient charge of refrigerant R410A. Switch on electrical power to the Mitsubishi Electric outdoor unit and the local electrical supply to the air curtain.
WARNING! The Interface PCB inside the air curtain will have 230 volts on it and there
will be 400V on some air curtain terminals if the defrost cycle auxiliary heater is enabled.
The system will ‘boot-up’ and when the screen on the PAR-W21MAA or PAR-30MAA Remote Controller becomes active it will repeat the message “PLEASE WAIT”. After several minutes when the PLEASE WAIT message has stopped the system is ready to start.
DANGER: Beware of Fans Starting!
Turn the air curtain on using the ON/OFF Button on the Remote Controller and the air curtain fans will start straight away. If a door switch has been installed to change fan speeds from High (door open) to Low (door closed) check this operates correctly. If the remote 3-Speed fan switch has been installed check that the fans run at HIGH speed, MEDIUM speed and LOW speed by operating the slider switch. If there is no door switch or remote 3-Speed fan switch a wire link will have been fitted to the fan speed terminals on the air curtain. Set the wire link to one of the three fan speeds (LOW, MED or HIGH) appropriate to the site conditions (see Page 18 and 22). Check there is no mechanical noise coming from the fans at any of the fan speeds and that all fans are working.
If the Air Curtain is set-up for :-
Weather Compensation Control (HEATING ECO mode)
or
Discharge Air Temperature Control (HEATING mode)
(this is how the air curtain is supplied)
with a PAR-W21MAA Remote Controller :-
Switch the Mode Button on the PAR-W21MAA to ‘HEATING’ mode (Discharge Air Temperature Control) and adjust the target temperature to 40°C using the ▲TEMP Button. Check that the air stream from the discharge grille warms up across the whole length of the air curtain after approximately 15 minutes of operation and that the air stream reaches right down across the doorway with the door open or closed.
NB. Cooling is not possible with Weather Compensation Control (HEATING ECO
mode) or with Discharge Air Temperature Control (HEATING mode).
Page 25
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 25 of 38

If the Air Curtain is set-up for :-
Inlet Air Temperature Control
or
Room Air Temperature Control
(air curtain has been modified during commissioning)
with a PAR-30MAA Remote Controller, BMS or Centralised Controller :-
Switch the Mode Button on the PAR-30MAA Remote Controller to ‘HEAT’ and adjust
the target temperature to 28°C maximum setting using the + Temp. Button. Check
that the air stream from the discharge grille warms up across the whole length of the air curtain after approximately 15 minutes of operation and that the air stream reaches right down across the doorway with the door open or closed.
If the end user is to operate the air curtain with a Remote Controller it can be set-up to monitor room air temperature at the controller instead of return air temperature at the air inlet of the air curtain. If this is required see the Mitsubishi Electric remote controller instructions for details.
If it is intended that the air curtain is to ever operate in cooling mode* switch the Mode Button on the PAR-30MAA remote controller to ‘COOL’ and adjust the target
temperature to 14°C minimum setting using the - Temp. Button. Wait for the air
curtain air stream to go cold. Check there is no debris in the outlet spout, there are no kinks in condensate hoses and the condensate pump (if used) will operate. It is unlikely that condensate will fill the drain tray straight away so it will be necessary to fill the tray manually with water to see if the condensate removal system is working satisfactorily. If an alarm sensor is fitted in the drain tray, check it operates to stop the air curtain cooling if the drain tray becomes too full. Test the air curtain for a time in cooling mode with all the panels and grilles fitted and if environmental conditions permit check that condensate is being collected and pumped away by the condensate pump. No condensate should leak out of the air curtain. At the end of the cooling test remove the inlet grilles and the bottom access panel and check that the inside of the air curtain has remained dry and that all condensate was collected by the removal system.
* For the air curtain to operate in cooling mode the plug must be removed from CNX5 on the PAC-IF010
Interface PCB (see Wiring Diagrams 1 & 2 on Pages 16 and 17). There must also be a condensate disposal system fitted.
To conserve energy and carbon resources it is recommended to set up the PAR­30MAA Remote Controller, BMS System or Centralised Controller so it operates in HEAT Mode at a target temperature of 24°C. This is the normal mode of operation for the heat pump air curtain and it should run in this set-up with no further adjustments, automatically heating as required. If the target temperature is reached the air curtain fans will still operate but the air stream is then not heated (ambient air curtain).
If the end user is to operate the air curtain with a PAR-30MAA Remote Controller, set up the No.1 locking function on the controller so they can only switch the air curtain ON or OFF, with no control of mode or target temperatures. See user instructions for the Mitsubishi Electric PAR-30MAA Remote Controller.
Page 28
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 28 of 38
If the air curtain is to be operated from a BMS System or Centralised Controller this should be configured so that the air curtain can only operate in HEAT or FAN mode if it is not fitted with a condensate disposal system. The air curtain should only be configured to operate in COOL mode if it is fitted with a condensate disposal system.
Switch off the electrical power to the Air Curtain and the Mitsubishi Electric Outdoor Unit. Carefully slide the Interface PCB back into place and re-plug the Filter Indication connection into CN105 if removed earlier. Ensure cables are not trapped inside and refit the retaining screw.

The air curtain is fitted with a Filter Dirty Indicator. It is located at the left-hand end of the outlet grille and signals when the air curtain inlet grille/filters should be vacuum cleaned or the air curtain requires servicing.
NB.The filter dirty interval feature on the Mitsubishi Electric remote
controller is not available.
The indicator states are outlined below:
Indicator State Indicator Light Action Required Reset Button
GREEN FLASH On 0.5s; Off 3s None N/A
RED ON On permanently Vacuum inlet Quick reset
RED FLASH On 0.5s; Off 0.5s Service filters Press for 5s
The filter indicator schedule is based on fan operating hours. For the default schedule, shown schematically below, the inlet grilles should be vacuum cleaned every 240hrs of fan operation (3 to 4 weeks depending on use) and a full service should take place every 960hrs of fan operation (4 to 6 months depending on use).

To access the Filter Indicator PCB to change jumper position:-
Switch off the electrical power to the Air Curtain. Remove the plastic end caps, inlet grilles and bottom access panel, see ‘To gain access inside the Air Curtain’, Page 13.
Unfasten the two screws as shown in the picture at the left hand end of the discharge grille.
Gently lower the left-hand end of the discharge grille, supporting it from below. The Filter Indicator PCB is now accessible to change the jumper position.
Once the filter indicator PCB ‘jumper’ has been re-positioned, push the discharge grille back up into place and re-fasten the screws. Replace bottom access panel, inlet grilles and plastic end caps in reverse order.
Final Check of the Unit
Replace the bottom access panel, air inlet grilles (with filters) and plastic end caps (see ‘To gain access inside the Air Curtain’, Page 13).
Power-up both the Outdoor Unit and the Air Curtain and re-check the operation of the unit.

Hand-over to End-User
Before leaving site it is important that there is a 'Hand-Over Meeting' to hand-over the heat pump system and air curtain installation to the end user or their representative. This should include a full and clear explanation of how the system operates and a demonstration showing the air curtain running. Be sure to explain the Filter Indicator Schedule, that the air inlet grilles and air filters must be regularly vacuum cleaned and the unit serviced at regular intervals. See “Servicing the Air Curtain”, Page 33.
If the air curtain is to be operated with Weather Compensation Control (HEATING ECO mode) or Discharge Air Temperature Control (HEATING mode) using a PAR-
W21MAA remote controller:-
Make sure the end user understands how to select HEATING ECO mode and HEATING mode and how the system will operate in each mode. Show the end user that by selecting HEATING mode with the lowest target temperature (20°C) the air curtain can operate in FAN only (Ambient) mode. Leave the system set to HEATING ECO to promote energy saving and lock all buttons on the PAR-W21MAA remote controller except the ON/OFF button before leaving site (Locking Function No.1).
If the air curtain is to be operated with Inlet Air Temperature Control or Room Air Temperature Control using a PAR-30MAA remote controller:-
Make sure the end user understands how the heat pump system works. That the air curtain operates in FAN (Ambient) mode or in HEAT mode with a fixed target temperature of, say, 24°C. If a condensate drain system has been installed and it is intended that the unit is to operate in cooling mode, show the end user how the COOL mode operates. Leave the system set to HEAT and lock all buttons on the PAR­30MAA remote controller except the ON/OFF button before leaving site (Locking Function No.1).
Explain how the fan speeds operate if there is a door operated fan speed switch, remote 3-speed fan switch or if the fan speed has been fixed.
If the air curtain is to be operated under the control of a BMS System or Centralised Controller, explain all the settings and demonstrate the operation of the system. That the air curtain should be operated in FAN (Ambient) mode or in HEAT mode with a fixed target temperature of, say, 24°C. It is vital they understand that the air curtain must not be run in COOL mode if a condensate drain system has not been installed.
If a condensate pump and drain system has been fitted and the air curtain is to be operated in COOL mode explain that the target temperature should be adjusted to a comfortable level of cooling, not necessarily to the lowest target temperature possible as this uses a lot more energy and increases the carbon footprint.
Explain to the end user that the doorway should be closed whenever possible but that during times of high pedestrian use it will become effectively ‘open doorway’. The air curtain serves an essential purpose by saving energy and providing comfort to the occupants when compared to an open doorway with no air curtain fitted.
Ensure that all instructions and manuals are handed to the end user or their representative.

SERVICING THE AIR CURTAIN
Vacuum Clean the Air Inlet Grilles / Filters
(Fortnightly, or when the Filter Dirty Indicator shows PERMANENT RED)
With the air curtain switched OFF, a vacuum cleaner with an extension tube and brush attachment at its end should be used to clean the face of the air inlet grilles. This is important to minimise the build-up of dust and lint on the air filters inside the inlet grilles which will affect the performance of the air curtain. This is a simple service task that can be carried out by the Cleaner or Janitor on a weekly basis from floor level without having to access the air curtain at high level. This should be done weekly as a regular service task and/or when the Filter Dirty Indicator shows permanent red.
ONLY if the Filter Dirty Indicator shows PERMANENT RED
Reset the Filter Dirty Indicator after cleaning by a quick press of the Reset Button.
NB.The filter dirty interval feature on the Mitsubishi Electric
remote controller is not available.
Servicing the Air Curtain
(suggest every 6 Months, or if the Filter Dirty Indicator shows FLASHING RED)
Before servicing, maintaining or repairing the Air Curtain always isolate the local electrical supply to the Air Curtain and the electrical supply to the Mitsubishi Electric Outdoor Unit.
Note: All servicing, maintenance and repairs to the air curtain must be carried out by an
approved Service Agent. Keep any loose fixings for re-assembly.
Remove the plastic end caps at each end of the unit by pulling off to the side as shown in the picture.
Remove each air inlet grille with its air filter by unfastening the quarter-turn Philips Head fastener at the bottom corner of the grille. Use a Philips No.1 screwdriver to access the screw via the elongated hole at the bottom corner of each grille and turn anti-clockwise to remove (see picture).

access panel
screw
Remove the air filters from the air inlet grilles by gently prizing them free as shown. Gently vacuum clean and refit the filters into the curved air inlet grilles. The filters are durable but may need to be replaced after a number of service intervals.
To remove the bottom access panel unfasten the access panel securing screws, one at each end, plus two in the centre (HP1500 DXE and HP2000 DXE units) and slide the panel out forwards (see picture).
Vacuum clean and remove any build-up of dust, dirt and debris within the air-curtain, especially on the fans.
Note: Fan motors are permanently lubricated and require no additional lubrication.
If the Air Curtain has been used in Cooling:-
Remove two screws from each end of the air curtain that attach the air discharge grille assembly to the unit. Remove the discharge grille assembly from the unit.
On the HP1500DXE and HP2000DXE air curtains there is an additional screw at the middle of the grille that also needs to be removed.
Remove condensate hose from the drain tray outlet pipe, see picture.
Page 35
T9901085-1-3 UK Page 35 of 38
Using a 10mm spanner loosen the two bolts, one at each end of the air discharge opening, by 2 turns. Do not remove these two bolts completely.
Remove the row of fixing screws along the whole length of the drain tray (see picture).
The drain tray now hinges down along its front edge and the inside surface of the tray can be cleaned. Remove all debris and deposits from the coil face, drain tray, outlet pipe, condensate hoses and the condensate disposal system.
Check there are no kinks in condensate hoses. If the condensate pump is a peristaltic type change the rubber pump head tube. Refit drain tray opposite to removal
Once the air curtain has been cleaned, visually inspect the air curtain components. Ensure pipe temperature sensors are located in their pockets and any foam insulation covering these pockets is un-damaged. Check that the thermal overheat cut-out switch (two on a HP2000DXE unit) has not tripped (see Section – Commissioning, Page 20). Check all electrical connections and terminals within the unit are tight and that crimp connections have not become loose.
Refit the bottom access panel and air inlet grilles with filters. Switch on the electrical supplies and fully function test the air curtain to ensure correct operation (see Section – Commissioning, Page 20).
Reset the Filter Dirty Indicator after the service by pressing the Reset Button for at least 5 seconds (even if the indicator has not gone flashing red) and hand back the unit to the end user.
