2. REFRIGERANT R410A

This air conditioner adopts the new refrigerant HFC (R410A) which does not damage the ozone layer.

The working pressure of the new refrigerant R410A is 1.6 times higher than conventional refrigerant (R22). The refrigerating oil is also changed in accordance with change of refrigerant, so be careful that water, dust, and existing refrigerant or refrigerating oil are not entered in the refrigerant cycle of the air conditioner using the new refrigerant during installation work or servicing time.

The next section describes the precautions for air conditioner using the new refrigerant. Conforming to contents of the next section together with the general cautions included in this manual, perform the correct and safe work.

2-1. Safety During Installation/Servicing

As R410A’s pressure is about 1.6 times higher than that of R22, improper installation/servicing may cause a serious trouble. By using tools and materials exclusiv e for R410A, it is necessary to carry out installation/servicing safely while taking the following precautions into consideration.

(1) Never use refrigerant other than R410A in an air

conditioner which is designed to operate with R410A.

If other refrigerant than R410A is mixed, pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high, and it may cause personal injury, etc. by a rupture.

(2) Confirm the used refrigerant name, and use

tools and materials exclusiv e for the refrigerant R410A.

The refrigerant name R410A is indicated on the visible place of the outdoor unit of the air conditioner using R410A as refrigerant. To prevent mischarging, the diameter of the service port differs from that of R22.

(3) If a refrigeration gas leakage occurs during

installation/servicing, be sure to ventilate fully. If the refrigerant gas comes into contact with fire,

a poisonous gas may occur.

(4) When installing or removing an air conditioner,

do not allow air or moisture to remain in the refrigeration cycle. Otherwise, pressure in the refrigeration cycle may become abnormally high so that a rupture or personal injury may be caused.

(5) After completion of installation work, check to

make sure that there is no refrigeration gas leakage.

If the refrigerant gas leaks into the room, coming into contact with fire in the fan-driven heater, space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.

(6) When an air conditioning system charged with a

large volume of refrigerant is installed in a small room, it is necessary to exercise care so that, even when refrigerant leaks , its concentration does not exceed the marginal level.

If the refrigerant gas leakage occurs and its concentration exceeds the marginal level, an oxygen starvation accident may result.

(7) Be sure to carry out installation or removal

according to the installation manual. Improper installation may cause refrigeration

trouble, water leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.

(8) Unauthorized modifications to the air conditioner

may be dangerous. If a breakdown occurs please call a qualified air conditioner technician or electrician.

Improper repair’s may result in water leakage, electric shock and fire, etc.

2-2. Refrigerant Piping Installation

2-2-1. Piping Materials and Joints Used

For the refrigerant piping installation, copper pipes and joints are mainly used. Copper pipes and joints suitable for the refrigerant must be chosen and installed. Furthermore, it is necessary to use clean copper pipes and joints whose interior surfaces are less affected by contaminants.

(1) Copper Pipes

It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes which are made of either copper or copper alloy and it is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10 m. Do not use copper pipes having a collapsed, deformed or discolored portion (especially on the interior surface).

Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube may become blocked with contaminants.

As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pressure higher than when using R22, it is necessary to choose adequate materials.

Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in Table 2-2-1. Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.8 mm even when it is available on the market.

(2) Joints

For copper pipes, flare joints or socket joints are used. Prior to use, be sure to remove all contaminants.

a) Flare Joints

Flare joints used to connect the copper pipes cannot be used for pipings whose outer diameter exceeds 20 mm. In such a case, socket joints can be used.

Sizes of flare pipe ends, flare joint ends and flare nuts are as shown in Tables 2-2-3 to 22-6 below .

2-2-2. Processing of Piping Materials

When performing the refrigerant piping installation, care should be taken to ensure that water or dust does not enter the pipe interior, that no other oil other than lubricating oils used in the installed air conditioner is used, and that refrigerant does not leak. When using lubricating oils in the piping processing, use such lubricating oils whose water content has been removed. When stored, be sure to seal the container with an airtight cap or any other cover.

2-3. Tools

2-3-1. Required T ools

The service port diameter of packed valve of the outdoor unit in the air conditioner using R410A is changed to prevent mixing of other refrigerant. To reinforce the pressure-resisting strength, flare processing dimensions and opposite side dimension of flare nut (For Ø12.7 copper pipe) of the refrigerant piping are lengthened.

The used refrigerating oil is changed, and mixing of oil may cause a trouble such as generation of sludge, clogging of capillary, etc. Accordingly, the tools to be used are classified into the following three types.

(1) Tools exclusive for R410A (Those which cannot be used for conventional refrigerant (R22)) (2) Tools exclusive for R410A, but can be also used for conventional refrigerant (R22) (3) Tools commonly used for R410A and for conv entional refrigerant (R22) The table below shows the tools exclusive for R410A and their interchangeability.

2-4. Recharging of Refrigerant

When it is necessary to recharge refrigerant, charge the specified amount of new refrigerant according to the following steps .

Recover the refrigerant, and check no refrigerant remains in the equipment.

Connect the charge hose to packed valve service port at the outdoor unit’s gas side.

Connect the charge hose to the vacuum pump adapter.

Open fully both packed valves at liquid and gas sides.

When the compound gauge’s pointer has indicated –0.1 Mpa (–76 cmHg), place the handle Low in the fully closed position, and turn off the vacuum pump’s power switch.

Keep the status as it is for 1 to 2 minutes, and ensure that the compound gauge’s pointer does not return.

Set the refrigerant cylinder to the electronic balance, connect the connecting hose to the cylinder and the connecting port of the electronic balance, and charge liquid refrigerant.

Place the handle of the gauge manifold Low in the fully opened position, and turn on the vacuum pump’s power switch. Then, evacuating the refrigerant in the cycle.

(For refrigerant charging, see the figure below.)

(1) Never charge refrigerant exceeding the specified amount. (2) If the specified amount of refrigerant cannot be charged, charge refrigerant bit by bit in COOL mode . (3) Do not carry out additional charging.

When additional charging is carried out if refrigerant leaks, the refrigerant composition changes in the refrigeration cycle, that is characteristics of the air conditioner changes, refrigerant exceeding the specified amount is charged, and working pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high pressure, and may cause a rupture or personal injury.

(1) Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged. (2) When using a cylinder equipped with a siphon, liquid can be charged without turning it upside down.

It is necessary for charging refrigerant under condition of liquid because R410A is mixed type of refrigerant. Accordingly, when charging refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder to the equipment, charge it turning the cylinder upside down if cylinder is not equipped with siphon.

R410A refrigerant is HFC mixed refrigerant. Therefore, if it is charged with gas , the composition of the charged refrigerant changes and the characteristics of the equipment varies.

2-5. Brazing of Pipes

2-5-1. Materials for Brazing

(1) Silver brazing filler

Silver brazing filler is an alloy mainly composed of silver and copper. It is used to join iron, copper or copper alloy, and is relatively expensive though it excels in solderability.

Electronic

balance

Siphon

Fig. 2-4-2

(1) Phosphor bronze brazing filler tends to react

with sulfur and produce a fragile compound water solution, which may cause a gas leakage. Therefore , use any other type of brazing filler at a hot spring resort, etc., and coat the surface with a paint.

(2) When performing brazing again at time of

servicing, use the same type of brazing filler.

(2) Phosphor bronze brazing filler

Phosphor bronze brazing filler is generally used to join copper or copper alloy.

(3) Low temperature brazing filler

Low temperature brazing filler is generally called solder, and is an alloy of tin and lead. Since it is weak in adhesive strength, do not use it for refrigerant pipes.

2-5-2. Flux

(1) Reason why flux is necessary

• By removing the oxide film and any f oreign matter on the metal surface, it assists the flo w of brazing filler.

• In the brazing process, it prevents the metal surface from being oxidized.

• By reducing the brazing filler’s surf ace tension, the brazing filler adheres better to the treated metal.

(2) Characteristics required for flux

Nitrogen gas

Flow meter

Rubber plug

• Activated temperature of flux coincides with the brazing temperature.

• Due to a wide effective temperature r ange, flux is hard to carbonize.

• It is easy to remove slag after brazing.

• The corrosive action to the treated metal and

brazing filler is minimum.

• It excels in coating performance and is harmless to the human body.

As the flux works in a complicated manner as described above, it is necessary to select an adequate type of flux according to the type and shape of treated metal, type of brazing filler and brazing method, etc.

(3) Types of flux

• Noncorrosive flux

Generally, it is a compound of borax and boric acid. It is effective in case where the br azing temperature is higher than 800°C.

• Activated flux

Most of fluxes generally used for silver brazing are this type. It features an increased oxide film removing capability due to the addition of compounds such as potassium fluoride, potassium chloride and sodium fluoride to the borax-boric acid compound.

(4) Piping materials for brazing and used braz-

ing filler/flux

2-5-3. Brazing

As brazing work requires sophisticated techniques, experiences based upon a theoretical knowledge, it must be performed by a person qualified.

In order to prevent the oxide film from occurring in the pipe interior during brazing, it is effective to proceed with brazing while letting dry Nitrogen gas (N2) flow.

Never use gas other than Nitrogen gas.

(1) Brazing method to prevent oxidation

1) Attach a reducing valve and a flow-meter to the Nitrogen gas cylinder.

2) Use a copper pipe to direct the piping material, and attach a flow-meter to the cylinder.

3) Apply a seal onto the clearance between the piping material and inserted copper pipe for Nitrogen in order to prevent backflow of the Nitrogen gas.

4) When the Nitrogen gas is flowing, be sure to keep the piping end open.

5) Adjust the flow rate of Nitrogen gas so that it is lower than 0.05 m3/Hr or 0.02 MPa (0.2kgf/cm2) by means of the reducing valve.

6) After performing the steps above, keep the Nitrogen gas flowing until the pipe cools down to a certain extent (temperature at which pipes are touchable with hands).

7) Remove the flux completely after brazing.

Copper - Copper

(1) Do not enter flux into the refrigeration cycle. (2) When chlorine contained in the flux remains

(3) When adding water to the flux, use water

(4) Remove the flux after br azing.

8. OPERATION DESCRIPTION

8-1. Outline of Air Conditioner Control

This air conditioner is a capacity-variable type air conditioner, which uses DC motor for the indoor fan motor and the outdoor fan motor. And the capacityproportional control compressor which can change the motor speed in the range from 13 to 115 rps is mounted. The DC motor drive circuit is mounted to the indoor unit. The compressor and the inverter to control fan motor are mounted to the outdoor unit.

The entire air conditioner is mainly controlled by the indoor unit controller.

The indoor unit controller drives the indoor fan motor based upon command sent from the remote controller, and transfers the operation command to the outdoor unit controller.

The outdoor unit controller receives operation command from the indoor unit side, and controls the outdoor fan and the pulse modulating valve. (P.M.V) Besides, detecting revolution position of the compressor motor, the outdoor unit controller controls speed of the compressor motor by controlling output voltage of the inverter and switching timing of the supply power (current transf er timing) so that motors drive according to the operation command. And then, the outdoor unit controller transfers reversely the operating status information of the outdoor unit to control the indoor unit controller.

As the compressor adopts four -pole brushless DC motor, the frequency of the supply power from inverter to compressor is two-times cyc les of the actual number of revolution.

(1) Role of indoor unit controller

The indoor unit controller judges the operation commands from the remote controller and assumes the following functions .

• Judgment of suction air temperature of the indoor heat exchanger by using the indoor temp. sensor. (TA sensor)

• Judgment of the indoor heat exchanger temperature by using heat exchanger sensor (TC sensor) (Prevent-freezing control, etc.)

• Louver motor control

• Indoor fan motor operation control

• LED (Light Emitting Diode) display control

• Transferring of operation command signal

(Serial signal) to the outdoor unit

• Reception of information of operation status (Serial signal including outside temp. data) to the outdoor unit and judgment/display of error

• Air purifier operation control

(2) Role of outdoor unit controller

Receiving the operation command signal (Serial signal) from the indoor unit controller, the outdoor unit performs its role.

• Compressor operation control

• Operation control of outdoor

fan motor

• P.M.V. control

• 4-way valve control



Operations followed to judgment of serial signal



from indoor side.



• Detection of inverter input current and current release operation

• Over-current detection and prevention operation to IGBT module (Compressor stop function)

• Compressor and outdoor fan stop function when serial signal is off (when the serial signal does not reach the board assembly of outdoor control by trouble of the signal system)

• Transferring of operation information (Serial signal) from outdoor unit controller to indoor unit controller

• Detection of outdoor temperature and operation rev olution control

• Defrost control in heating operation (Temp. measurement by outdoor heat exchanger and control for four-way valve and outdoor fan)

(3) Contents of operation command signal (Serial

signal) from indoor unit controller to outdoor unit controller

The following three types of signals are sent from the indoor unit controller.

• Operation mode set on the remote control

• Compressor revolution command signal defined

by indoor temperature and set temperature (Correction along with variation of room temperature and correction of indoor heat exchanger temperature are added.)

• Temperature of indoor heat exchanger

• For these signals ([Operation mode] and

[Compressor rev olution] indoor heat exchanger temperature), the outdoor unit controller monitors the input current to the inverter , and performs the follo wed operation within the range that current does not exceed the allowable value.

(4) Contents of operation command signal (Serial

signal) from outdoor unit controller to indoor unit controller

The following signals are sent from the outdoor unit controller.

• The current operation mode

• The current compressor revolution

• Outdoor temperature

• Existence of protective circuit operation

For transferring of these signals, the indoor unit controller monitors the contents of signals, and judges existence of trouble occurrence.

Contents of judgment are described below.

• Whether distinction of the current operation

status meets to the operation command signal

• Whether protective circuit operates

When no signal is received from the outdoor unit controller, it is assumed as a trouble.

When Te0 - TE ≥ 2.5 continued for 2 minutes in A zone, defrost operation starts.

When the operation continued for 2 minutes in B zone, defrost operation starts.

When Te0 - TE ≥ 3 continued for 2 minutes in C zone, defrost operation starts.

When the following conditions are satisfied, winding is heated by output varied by the outdoor heat exchanger temperature.

Condition 1 :

The previous operation was heating.

Condition 2 :

2 hours passed after operation stop.

Condition 3 :

The room temperature is 20°C or lower.

The indoor temperature sensor detects the room temperature. If the detected room temperature is 20°C or lower, the outdoor heat exchanger temperature sensor detects the outdoor heat exchanger temperature. As shown in the left figure, winding of the compressor is heated for each division of the temperature (

for each outdoor

temperature) and the heat is stored.

The necessity of defrost operation is detected by the outdoor heat exchanger temperature. The conditions to detect the necessity of defrost operation differ in A, B, or C zone each. (Table 1)

• Defrost operation in A to C zones

1) Stop operation of the compressor for 20 seconds.

2) Invert (OFF) 4-way valve 10 seconds after stop of the compressor.

3) The outdoor fan stops at the same time when the compressor stops.

4) When temperature of the indoor heat exchanger becomes 38°C or lower, stop the indoor fan.

• Returning conditions from defrost

operation to heating operation

1) Temperature of outdoor heat exchanger rises to +8°C or higher.

2) Temperature of outdoor heat exchanger is kept at +5°C or higher for 80 seconds.

3) Defrost operation continues for 15 minutes.

1) Stop operation of the compressor for approx. 50 seconds.

2) Invert (ON) 4-way valve approx. 40 seconds after stop of the compressor.

3) The outdoor fan starts rotating at the same time when the compressor starts.
