1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

For general public use

Power supply cord of outdoor unit shall be more than 1.5 mm2 (H07RN-F or 60245IEC66) polychloroprene
sheathed flexible cord.

• Read this “SAFETY PRECAUTIONS” carefully before servicing.

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

• After the servicing work, perform a trial operation to check for any problem.

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

CAUTION

New Refrigerant Air Conditioner Installation

• THIS AIR CONDITIONER ADOPTS THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A) WHICH DOES NOT
DESTROY OZONE LAYER.

R410A refrigerant is apt to be affected by impurities such as water, oxidizing membrane, and oils because
the working pressure of R410A refrigerant is approx. 1.6 times of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with the
adoption of the new refrigerant, the refrigeration machine oil has also been changed. Therefore, during
installation work, be sure that water , dust, former refrigerant, or refrigeration machine oil does not enter into
the new type refrigerant R410A air conditioner circuit.

To prevent mixing of refrigerant or refrigerating machine oil, the sizes of connecting sections of charging
port on main unit and installation tools are different from those used for the conventional refrigerant units.

Accordingly, special tools are required for the new refrigerant (R410A) units. For connecting pipes, use new
and clean piping materials with high pressure fittings made for R410A only, so that water and/or dust does
not enter. Moreover, do not use the existing piping because there are some problems with pressure fittings
and possible impurities in existing piping.

CAUTION

TO DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE FROM THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY

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

DANGER

• ASK AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR QUALIFIED INSTALLATION PROFESSIONAL TO IN­STALL/MAINTAIN THE AIR CONDITIONER.

INAPPROPRIATE SERVICING MAY RESULT IN WATER LEAKAGE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.

• TURN OFF MAIN POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. MAKE SURE
ALL POWER SWITCHES ARE OFF. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.

DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE

The high voltage circuit is incorporated.
Be careful to do the check service, as the electric shock may be caused in case of touching parts

on the P.C. board by hand.

• CORRECTLY CONNECT THE CONNECTING CABLE. IF THE CONNECTING CABLE IS INCOR­RECTLY CONNECTED, ELECTRIC PARTS MAY BE DAMAGED.

• CHECK THAT THE EARTH WIRE IS NOT BROKEN OR DISCONNECTED BEFORE SERVICE AND
INSTALLATION. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.

• DO NOT INSTALL NEAR CONCENTRATIONS OF COMBUSTIBLE GAS OR GAS VAPORS. FAILURE
TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION CAN RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

• TO PREVENT THE INDOOR UNIT FROM OVERHEATING AND CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD, PLACE
THE UNIT WELL AWAY (MORE THAN 2 M) FROM HEAT SOURCES SUCH AS RADIATORS, HEAT
REGISTORS, FURNACE, STOVES, ETC.

• WHEN MOVING THE AIR-CONDITIONER FOR INSTALLATION IN ANOTHER PLACE, BE VER Y CARE­FUL NOT TO ALLOW THE SPECIFIED REFRIGERANT (R410A) TO BECOME MIXED WITH ANY
OTHER GASEOUS BODY INTO THE REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT. IF AIR OR ANY OTHER GAS IS
MIXED IN THE REFRIGERANT, THE GAS PRESSURE IN THE REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT WILL
BECOME ABNORMALLY HIGH AND IT MAY RESULT IN THE PIPE BURSTING AND POSSIBLE PER­SONNEL INJURIES.

• IN THE EVENT THAT THE REFRIGERANT GAS LEAKS OUT OF THE PIPE DURING THE SERVICE
WORK AND THE INSTALLATION WORK, IMMEDIATELY LET FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM. IF THE
REFRIGERANT GAS IS HEATED, SUCH AS BY FIRE, GENERATION OF POISONOUS GAS MAY
RESULT.

WARNING

• Never modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or bypass any of the safety interlock
switches.

• Do not install in a place which cannot bear the weight of the unit. Personal injury and property
damage can result if the unit falls.

• 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
may generate.

• The electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the Installation
Manual. Make sure the air conditioner uses an exclusive circuit.

An insufficient circuit capacity or inappropriate installation may cause fire.

• When wiring, use the specified cab les and connect the terminals securely to prevent external
forces applied to the cable from affecting the terminals.

• Be sure to provide grounding.

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

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

Inappropriate grounding may cause electric shock.

CAUTION

• Exposure of unit to water or other moisture before installation may result in an electrical short.
Do not store in a wet basement or expose to rain or water.

• Do not install in a place that can increase the vibration of the unit. Do not install in a place that can amplify
the noise level of the unit or where noise or discharged air might disturb neighbors.

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

• 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.

For Reference:

If a heating operation would be continuously perf ormed for a long time under the condition that the outdoor
temperature is 0°C or lower, drainage of defrosted water may be difficult due to freezing of the bottom plate,
resulting in a trouble of the cabinet or fan.

It is recommended to procure an antifreeze heater locally for a safe installation of the air conditioner.
For details, contact the dealer.

3. REFRIGERANT R410A

FILE NO. SVM-09041

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.

3-1. 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 exclusive 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. b y a
rupture.

2. Confirm the used refrigerant name, and use tools
and materials exclusive 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 le vel.

If the refrigerant gas leakage occurs and its
concentration exceeds the marginal le vel, 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.

3-2. Refrigerant Piping Installation

3-2-1. 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 m ust 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 3-2-1. Ne ver 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 3-2-3 to 3-2-6 below.

b) Socket Joints

Socket joints are such that they are brazed for connections, and used mainly for thick pipings whose
diameter is larger than 20 mm.

Thicknesses of sock et joints are as shown in Table 3-2-2.

3-2-2. 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 than lubricating oils used in the installed air-water heat pump 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.

1. Flare processing procedures and precautions

a) Cutting the Pipe

By means of a pipe cutter, slowly cut the pipe so that it is not deformed.

b) Removing Burrs and Chips

If the flared section has chips or burrs, refrigerant leakage ma y occur.
Carefully remove all burrs and clean the cut surface before installation.

c) Insertion of Flare Nut

– 7 –

d) Flare Processing

Make certain that a clamp bar and copper
pipe have been cleaned.

By means of the clamp bar, perform the flare
processing correctly.

Use either a flare tool for R410A or conven­tional flare tool.

Flare processing dimensions differ according
to the type of flare tool. When using a con­ventional flare tool, be sure to secure “dimen-
sion A” by using a gauge for size adjustment.

2. Flare Connecting Procedures and Precautions

a) Make sure that the flare and union portions do not have any scar or dust, etc.
b) Correctly align the processed flare surface with the union axis.
c) Tighten the flare with designated torque b y means of a torque wrench. The tightening torque for R410A is

the same as that for conventional R22. Incidentally, when the torque is weak, the gas leakage may occur.
When it is strong, the flare nut may crack and may be made non-removable. When choosing the tighten-

ing torque, comply with values designated by man ufacturers. Table 3-2-7 shows reference values.

NOTE :

When applying oil to the flare surface, be sure to use oil designated by the manufacturer.
If any other oil is used, the lubricating oils may deteriorate and cause the compressor to burn out.

3-3. Tools

3-3-1. Required T ools

The service port diameter of packed valve of the outdoor unit in the air-water heat pump using R410A is
changed to prev ent 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 f or conventional refrigerant (R22)

3. Tools commonly used for R410A and for conventional refrigerant (R22)

3-4. 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

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

3-5. Brazing of Pipes

3-5-1. 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.

2. Phosphor bronze brazing filler

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

Electronic

balance

Siphon

Fig. 3-4-2

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.

3-5-2. Flux

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.

1. Reason why flux is necessary

• By removing the oxide film and any foreign
matter on the metal surface, it assists the flow
of brazing filler .

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

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

– 12 –

2. Characteristics required for flux

• Activated temperature of flux coincides with the
brazing temperature.

• Due to a wide effectiv e temper ature range, 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 brazing tem­perature is higher than 800°C.

• Activated flux

Most of fluxes generally used for silver brazing
are this type.
It features an increased o xide 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
brazing filler/flux

FILE NO. SVM-09041

3-5-3. Brazing

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

In order to prev ent 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.

1. Do not enter flux into the refrigeration cycle.

2. When chlorine contained in the flux remains
within the pipe, the lubricating oil deteriorates.
Therefore, use a flux which does not contain
chlorine.

3. When adding water to the flux, use w ater
which does not contain chlorine (e.g. distilled
water or ion-exchange water).

4. Remove the flux after brazing.

9. OPERATION DESCRIPTION

FILE NO. SVM-09041

9-1. Outline of Air Conditioner Control

This air conditioner is a capacity-variable type air
conditioner, which uses AC or DC motor for the indoor
for motor and the outdoor fan motor. And the capacity­proportional control compressor which can change the
motor speed in the range from 11 to 96 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 transfer 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 cycles
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 follow ed 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
revolution control

• Defrost control in heating operation (Temp.
measurement by outdoor heat exchanger and
control for 4-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 controller

• 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 [Com-

pressor revolution] indoor heat exchanger tem­perature), the outdoor unit controller monitors the
input current to the inverter, and perfor ms the
followed 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 transferr ing 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.
