???

• Ensure that all Local, National and International regulations are satisfied.

• Read this “PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY” carefully before Installation.

• The precautions described below include the important items regarding safety. Observe them without fail.

• After the installation work, perform a trial operation to check for any prob lem. Follow the Owner’s Manual to explain how to use and maintain the unit to the customer.

• Turn off the main power supply switch (or breaker) before the unit maintenance.

• Ask the customer to keep the Installation Manual together with the Owner’s Manual.

PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY

CAUTION New Refrigerant Air Conditioner Installation

• THIS AIR CONDITIONER ADOPTS THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A) WHICH DOES NOT DE-

STROY OZONE LAYER.

The characteristics of R410A refrigerant are ; easy to absorb water, oxidizing membrane or oil, and its pressure is approx. 1.6 times higher than that of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with the ne w refrigerant, refrigerating oil has also been changed. Therefore , during installation work, be sure that water, dust, former refrigerant, or refrigerating oil does not enter the refrigerating cycle.

To prevent charging an incorrect refrigerant and refrigerating oil, the sizes of connecting sections of charging port of the main unit and installation tools are charged from those for the conventional refrigerant.

Accordingly the exclusive tools are required for the new refrigerant (R410A). For connecting pipes, use new and clean piping designed for R410A, and please care so that water or dust

does not enter. Moreover, do not use the existing piping because there are problems with pressure-resistance force and impurity in it.

RAV-SM800AT-E

CAUTION To Disconnect the Appliance from Main Power Supply.

This appliance must be connected to the main power supply by means of a switch with a contact separation of at least 3 mm.

The installation fuse (25A D type ) must be used for the power supply line of this conditioner.

WARNING

• Ask an authorized dealer or qualified installation professional to install/maintain the air

conditioner.

Inappropriate installation may result in water leakage, electric shock or fire.

• Turn off the main power supply switch or breaker before attempting any electrical work.

Make sure all power switches are off. Failure to do so may cause electric shock.

• Connect the connecting cable correctly.

If the connecting cable is connected in a wrong way, electric parts may be damaged.

• When moving the air conditioner for the installation into another place, be very careful not

to enter any gaseous matter other than the specified refrigerant into the refrigeration cycle.

If air or any other gas is mixed in the refrigerant, the gas pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high and it may resultingly causes pipe burst and injuries on persons.

• Do not modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or by by-passing any of the

safety interlock switches.

• Exposure of unit to water or other moisture before installation may cause a short-circuit of

electrical parts.

Do not store it in a wet basement or expose to rain or water.

• After unpacking the unit, examine it carefully if there are possible damage.

• Do not install in a place that might increase the vibration of the unit.

• To avoid personal injury (with sharp edges), be careful when handling parts.

RAV-SM800AT-E

• Perform installation work properly according to the Installation Manual.

Inappropriate installation may result in water leakage, electric shock or fire.

• When the air conditioner is installed in a small room, provide appropriate measures to

ensure that the concentration of refrigerant leakage occur in the room does not exceed the critical level.

• Install the air conditioner securely in a location where the base can sustain the weight

adequately.

• Perform the specified installation work to guard against an earthquake.

If the air conditioner is not installed appropriately, accidents may occur due to the falling unit.

• If refrig erant gas has leaked during the installation work, ventilate the room immediately.

If the leaked refrigerant gas comes in contact with fire, noxious gas may generate.

• After the installation work, confirm that refrigerant gas does not leak.

If refrigerant gas leaks into the room and flows near a fire source, such as a cooking range, noxious gas might generate.

• Electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the Installa-

tion Manual. Make sure the air conditioner uses an exclusive power supply.

An insufficient power supply capacity or inappropriate installation may cause fire.

• Use the specified cables for wiring connect the terminals securely fix. To prevent external

forces applied to the terminals from affecting the terminals.

• Be sure to provide grounding.

Do not connect ground wires to gas pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or g round wires for telephone cables.

• Conform to the regulations of the local electric company when wiring the power supply.

Inappropriate grounding may cause electric shock.

• Do not install the air conditioner in a location subject to a risk of exposure to a combustible

gas.

Knockout procedure

• The indoor/outdoor connecting pipes can be connected to 4 directions.

Take off the knockout part of the pipe cov er in which pipes or wires pass through the base plate.

• As shown in the figure, do not remove the pipe cover from the cabinet so that the knockout hole can be easily punched. To knock out, it is easily taken off by hands by punching a position at the lower side of 3 connected parts with screwdriver along the guide line.

• After marking the knockout hole, remove the burr and mount the attached protective bush and guard material for pass-through part in order to protect pipes and wires.

How to remove the front panel

1. Remove screws of the front panel.

2. Pull the front panel downward.

Removing the front panel, the electric parts appear at the front side.

• The metal pipes are attachable to the piping holes. If the size of the used power pipe does not match with the hole, adjust the hole size to match with pipe size.

• Be sure to fix the power cable and indoor/outdoor connecting cable with bundling band sold on the market so that they do not mak e contact with the compressor and discharge pipe. (Temperature of the compressor and discharge pipe becomes high.)

In order to avoid the force applied to on the connecting section, be sure to fix the cables to the cord clamps provided on the pipe valve fixing plate and the electric parts box.

EVACUATING

Air Purge

This air conditioner can be installed up to the connecting pipe length and height difference in the following table.

Capacity rank

SM560 type SM800 type

With respect to the preservation of terrestrial environment, adopt “Vacuum pump” for air purge (Evacuate air in the connecting pipes) when installing the unit.

• Do not discharge the refrigerant gas to the atmosphere to preserve the terrestrial environment.

• Use a vacuum pump to discharge the air (nitrogen, etc.) remained in the set. If the air remains, the capacity

may decrease.

For the vacuum pump, be sure to use one with backflow preventer so that the oil in the pump does not backflow into the pipe of the air conditioner when the pump stops. (If oil in the vacuum pump is put in an air conditioner including R410A, it may cause trouble on the refrigeration cycle .)

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKS

Check and Test Operation

For R410A, use the leak detector e xclusiv ely manufactured for HFC refrigerant (R410A, R134a, etc.). The conventional leak detector for HCFC refrigerant

(R22, etc.) cannot be used because its sensitivity for HFC refrigerant lowers to approx. 1/40.

• Pressure of R410A is approx. 1.6 times higher than that of R22.

If installation work is incompletely finished, a gas leakage may occur when pressure rises during operation.

Therefore, be sure to test the piping connections for leakage.

• Check gas leakage at the flare nut connections , valve stem cap connections and service port cap fittings with a leak detector or soap water.

Installation/Servicing T ools

In the case of an air conditioner using R410A, in order to prevent any other refrigerant from being charged accidentally, service port diameter of the outdoor unit control valve (3 way valve) has been changed. (1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch)

• In order to increase the pressure resisting strength of the refrigerant piping flare processing diameter and size of opposite side of flare nuts has been changed. (for copper pipes with nominal dimensions 1/2 and 5/8)

Changes in the product and components

New tools for R410A

Gauge manifold

Charge hose

Electronic balance for refrigerant charging

Torque wrench (nominal diam. 1/2, 5/8)

• Incidentally, the “refrigerant cylinder” comes with the refrigerant designation (R410A) and protector coating in the U,S. ’s ARI specified rose color (ARI color code: PMS 507).

• Also, the “charge port and packing for refrigerant cylinder” require 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch corresponding to the charge hose’s port size.

Changes

As pressure is high, it is impossible to measure by means of conventional gauge. In order to prevent any other refrigerant from being charged, each port diameter is changed.

In order to increase pressure resisting strength, hose materials and port size are changed (to 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch). When purchasing a charge hose, be sure to check the port size.

As pressure is high and gasification speed is fast, it is difficult to read the indicated value by means of charging cylinder, as air bubbles occur.

The size of opposite sides of flare nuts have been increased. Incidentally, a common wrench is used for nominal diameters 1/4 and 3/8.

By increasing the clamp bar’s receiving hole, strength of spring in the tool has been improved.

Used when flare is made with using conventional flare tool. Connected to the conventional vacuum pump. It is necessary to use an

adapter to prevent vacuum pump oil from flowing back to the charge hose. The charge hose connecting part has two por ts-one for conventional refrigerant (7/16 UNF 20 threads per inch) and one for R410A. If the vacuum pump oil (mineral) mixes with R410A a sludge may occur and damage the equipment.

This cleaning and maintenance shall be carried out by a qualified person. F ailure to clean the indoor/outdoor units regularly will result in poor perf ormance, icing, water leaking and ev en compressor failure.

AIR CONDITIONER OPERATIONS AND PERFORMANCE

3 minutes protection function

3-minutes protection function prev ents the air conditioner from starting for initial 3 minutes after the main power switch/circuit break er is turned on for re-starting the air conditioner .

Power failure

Po wer failure during operation will stop the unit completely.

• To restart the operation, push the START/STOP button on the remote controller.

• Lightning or a wireless car telephone operating nearby may cause the unit to malfunction. Turn off the main power switch or circuit breaker and then turn them on again. Push the START/STOP b utton on the remote controller to restart.

Heating characteristics Preheating operation

The air conditioner will not deliver warm air immediately after it is turned on. Warm air will start to flow out after approximately 5 minutes when the indoor heat e xchanger w armed up .

Warm air control (In heating operation)

When the room temperature reaches the set temperature, the fan speed is automatically reduced to prevent to blow cold draft. At this time, the outdoor unit will stop.

Defrosting operation

If the outdoor unit is frosted during the heating operation, defrosting starts automatically (for approximately 2 to 10 minutes) to maintain the heating capacity.

• The fans in both indoor and outdoor units will stop during the defrosting operation.

• During the defrosting operation, the defrosted water will be drained from the bottom plate of the outdoor unit.

Heating capacity

In the heating operation, the heat is absorbed from the outside and brought into the room. This way of heating is called heat pump system. When the outside temperature is too low, it is recommended to use another heating apparatus in combination with the air conditioner .

Attention to snowfall and freeze on the outdoor unit

• In snowy areas, the air inlet and air outlet of the outdoor unit are often covered with snow or frozen up. If snow or freeze on the outdoor unit is left as it is, it may cause machine failure or poor warming.

• In cold areas, pay attention to the drain hose so that it perfectly drains water without water remaining inside for freeze prevention. If w ater freezes in the drain hose or inside the outdoor unit, it may cause machine failure or poor warming.

Air conditioner operating conditions

For proper perf ormance, operate the air conditioner under the following temperature conditions:

Cooling Outdoor temperature : –5°C to 43°C operation

Room temperature : 21°C to 32°C (Dry valve temp.), 15°C to 24°C (Wet valve temp.)

CAUTION
