Introduction
Precautions
Please read these instructions carefully before starting the installation.
This equipment should only be installed by suitably trained operatives.
In all cases ensure safe working practice: Observe precautions for persons in the vicinity of the works.
Ensure that all local, national and international regulations are satisfied.
Check that the electrical specifications of the unit meet the requirements of the site.
Carefully unpack the equipment, check for damage or shortages. Please report any damage immediately.
Model MAR-F105HTM8-PE complies with the following EU Directives:
73/23/EEC (Low Voltage Directive), 89/336/EEC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) and 97/23/EC (Pressure
Equipment Directive). Accordingly, they are designated for use in commercial and industrial environments.

Accumulator, category IHigh pressure switch, category II, Module A1
Notified body for inspection and quality assurance systems: BSI, Maylands Avenue, Hemel Hempstead,
WP2 4SQ, UK.
Avoid installation in the following locations:
Where there is danger of flammable gas leakages.
Where there are high concentrations of oil.
Where the atmosphere contains an excess of salt (as in coastal areas). The air conditioner is prone to
failure when used under this condition unless special maintenance is provided.
Where the airflow from the outdoor unit may cause annoyance.
Where the operating noise of the outdoor unit may cause annoyance.
Where the foundation is not strong enough to fully withstand the weight of the outdoor unit.
Where the water drainage may cause a nuisance or a hazard when frozen.
Where strong winds may blow against the air outlet of the outdoor unit.
Precautions for R407C outdoor units
R407C outdoor units use synthetic oils which are extremely hygroscopic. Therefore ensure that the
refrigerant system is NEVER exposed to air or any form of moisture.
Mineral oils are unsuitable for use in these units and may lead to premature system failure.
Use only equipment which is suitable for use with R407C. Never use equipment which has been used
with R22.
R407C should only be charged from the service cylinder in the liquid phase. It is advisable to use a
gauge manifold set equipped with a liquid sight glass fitted in the centre (entry) port.

Precautions for R-407C outdoor units
Liquid receiver fusible plug
In the event of the system being subjected to abnormal conditions it is protected by a fusible plug,
positioned on the liquid receiver, within the outdoor unit. It is rated to fail at 70°C.

System pressure measurement
To measure the system’s high and low pressures, connect a gauge manifold to the corresponding access
port as indicated below.

Introduction
Outline of control system
The refrigerant and electrical systems of the Super Multi air conditioner are controlled by the Multi
Controller and the outdoor unit microprocessors.
All RAV heat pump, R-407C, 4/5 series indoor units are compatible with the Super Multi system, i.e. 1~5 HP.
For system operation, initially the microprocessor in each indoor unit calculates the difference between the
current room temperature (TA) and the requested temperature which has been set on the remote
controller. A demand signal is determined and transmitted to the Multi Controller microprocessor in the
form of operation commands (i.e. ON/OFF, cooling or heating operation mode, operation demand frequency).
The Multi Controller microprocessor receives operation commands from all indoor units connected,
calculates the accumulative operation command and transmits this information to the outdoor unit interface
microprocessor.
The interface microprocessor calculates the capacity required for heating or cooling and determines the
operation mode of the outdoor unit and the actual frequency of the compressor.
•The setting of the indoor unit capacities is important. Set the correct indoor unit code numbers
according to the indoor unit capacity. The capacities are set by the rotary switches on the printed
circuit board switch A (unit A), switch B (unit B), switch C (unit C) and switch D (unit D).
•During manufacture, the indoor capacity selection switches are set at ‘0’.
•Record the indoor capacity codes, indoor unit model names and locations in the installation manual,
and on the wiring diagram on the electrical panel cover.
