2. REFRIGERANT R410A
This air conditioner adopts the new refrigerant HFC
(R410A) which does not damage the ozone lay er.
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 e xisting 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. Conf orming 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 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.
by a rupture.
(2) Confirm the used refrigerant name, and use
tools and materials exclusive f or 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 lev el.
If the refrigerant gas leakage occurs and its
concentration exceeds the marginal le v el, 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 ma y 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 v alv e or capillary tube
may become bloc ked 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
availab le on the market.
– 8 –
T a ble 2-2-1 Thicknesses of annealed copper pipes
For copper pipes, flare joints or soc ket 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 T ables 2-2-3 ~ 2-26 below.
Socket joints are such that the y are braz ed
for connections, and used mainly f or thic k
pipings whose diameter is larger than 20 mm.
Thicknesses of sock et joints are as shown in
T ab le 2-2-2.

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 .
(1) Flare Processing Procedures and Precautions
a) Cutting the Pipe
By means of a pipe cutter, slo wly cut the pipe
so that it is not deformed.
b) Removing Burrs and Chips
If the flared section has chips or burrs,
refrigerant leakage may occur. Carefully
remove all b urrs and clean the cut surface
before installation.
– 9 –
c) Insertion of Flare Nut
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.
Table 2-2-3 Dimensions related to flare processing for R410A
Flare processing dimensions differ according
to the type of flare tool. When using a conventional flare tool, be sure to secure “dimension A” by using a gauge for size adjustment.

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 by
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 .

2-3. Tools
2-3-1. Required Tools
The service port diameter of packed v alve of the outdoor unit in the air conditioner using R410A is changed to pre vent
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 f ollo wing three types.
(1) Tools exclusive f or R410A (Those which cannot be used f or conventional refrigerant (R22))
(2) Tools exclusive f or R410A, b ut can be also used for conventional refrigerant (R22)
(3) Tools commonly used for R410A and for con v entional refrigerant (R22)
The table below shows the tools e xclusiv e for R410A and their interchangeability .
Tools exclusive for R410A (The following tools for R410A are required.)
Tools whose specifications are changed for R410A and their interchangeability
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.
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.
Connect the charge hose of the vacuum pump
adapter.
Open fully both packed valves at liquid and gas
sides.
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.
Never charge refrigerant e xceeding the specified amount.
If the specified amount of refrigerant cannot be charged, charge refrigerant bit by bit in COOL mode.
Do not carry out additional charging.
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.
(For refrigerant charging, see the figure below.)
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.

Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged.
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.
(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.
Fig. 2-4-2
Electronic
balance
Siphon
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.
When performing brazing again at time of
servicing, use the same type of brazing filler.
2-5-2. Flux
(1) Reason why flux is necessary
• By removing the oxide film and any foreign
matter on the metal surface, it assists the flo w
of brazing filler .
• In the brazing process, it prevents the metal
surface from being o xidized.
• By reducing the brazing filler’s surface tension,
the brazing filler adheres better to the treated
metal.
– 14 –
(2) Characteristics required for flux
• Activated temperature of flux coincides with
the brazing temperature.
• Due to a wide effective 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 br azing
temperature is higher than 800°C.
• Activated flux
Most of fluxes generally used f or silv er br azing
are this type.
It features an increased oxide film remo ving
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 prev ent the o xide 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
Attach a reducing valve and a flow-meter to
the Nitrogen gas cylinder.
Use a copper pipe to direct the piping
material, and attach a flow-meter to the
cylinder.
Apply a seal onto the clearance between the
piping material and inserted copper pipe for
Nitrogen in order to prevent bac kflo w of the
Nitrogen gas.
When the Nitrogen gas is flowing, be sure to
keep the piping end open.
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 .
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).
Remove the flux completely after brazing.
Piping
material
Copper - Copper
Copper - Iron
Iron - Iron
Do not enter flux into the refrigeration cycle.
When chlorine contained in the flux remains
within the pipe, the lubricating oil deteriorates. Therefore, use a flux which does not
contain chlorine.
When adding water to the flux, use water
which does not contain chlorine (e.g. distilled
water or ion-exchange w ater).

This air conditioner is a capacity-variable type air
conditioner, which uses DC motor f or the indoor fan
motors and the outdoor fan motor . And the capacityproportional control compressor which can change
the motor speed in the range from 13 to 120 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 control,
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 valv e.
Besides, detecting revolution position of the compressor motor, the outdoor unit controller controls
speed of the compressor motor by controlling output
voltage of the inv erter 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 re v ersely
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 in verter 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 control and assumes the following functions.
• Judgment of suction air temperature of the
indoor heat exchanger by using the indoor
temp. sensor.
• Temperature setting of the indoor heat exchanger by using heat exchanger sensor
(Prevent-freezing control)
• Louver motor control
• Indoor fan motor operation control
• LED 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
(2) Role of outdoor unit controller
Receiving the operation command signal (Serial
signal) from the indoor controller, the outdoor
unit performs its role.
• Compressor operation
Operations followed
control
• Operation control of
outdoor fan motor
• P.M.V. control
• Detection of inverter input current and current
release operation
• Over-current detection and prev ention operation to transistor 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 to indoor unit
• Detection of outdoor temperature and operation revolution control
• Defrost control in heating operation (Temp.
measurement by outdoor heat exchanger and
control for four-w ay valve and outdoor fan)
to judgment of serial
signal from indoor
side.
– 28 –
(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.)
• For these two types of signals ( [Operation
mode] and [Compressor revolution] ), the
outdoor unit controller monitors the input
current to the inverter, and perf orms the
followed operation within the range that
current does not exceed the allowab le value.
• T emperature of indoor heat e xchanger b y indoor
heat exchanger sensor
(Minimum revolution control)
(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 transf erring 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.
8-1-1. Capacity Control
The cooling capacity is varied by changing compressor motor speed. The inverter changes compressor
motor speed by changing AC 220–230–240V pow er
to DC once, and controls capacity by changing
supply power status to the compressor with transistor module (includes 6 transistors). The outline of the
control is as follows: The revolution position and
revolution speed of the motor are detected b y
detecting winding electromotive force of the compressor motor under operation, and the revolution
speed is changed so that the motor drives based
upon revolution speed of the operation command b y
changing timing (current transfer timing) to e xchange inverter output voltage and supply power
winding.
Detection of the revolution position f or controlling is
performed 12 times per 1 rev olution of compressor.
The range of supply power frequency to the compressor differs according to the operation status
(COOL, DRY).

8-1-2. Current Release Control
The outdoor main circuit control section (Inverter
assembly) detects the input current to the outdoor
unit. If the current v alue with compressor motor
speed instructed from indoor side exceeds the
specified value, the outdoor main circuit control
section controls compressor motor speed by reducing motor speed so that value becomes closest to
the command within the limited value.
8-1-3. Power Factor Improvement Control
Po w er f actor impro v ement control is perf ormed
mainly aiming to reduce the current on much power
consumption of cooling / heating operation. Controlling starts from the time when input power has
reached at a certain point. To be concrete, IGBT of
the power factor improvement circuit is used, and
the power factor is impro ved by keeping IGBT on for
an arbitrary period to widen electro-angle of the
input current.
– 29 –
8-1-4. Prevent-Freezing Control
8-1-6. Louver Control
The indoor heat exchanger sensor detects refrigerant vapor temperature in COOL/DR Y operation. If
the temperature is below the specified value, compressor motor speed is reduced so that operation is
performed in temperature below the specified value
to prevent-freezing of indoor heat e xchanger.
8-1-5. P. M. V. (Pulse Modulating Valve)
Using P.M.V., refrigerant flow of refrigeration cycle is
varied for the optimum temperature . Controlling
each unit separately by two P.M.V. corresponds to
difference of pipe length, fan speed, and unit temperature.
If an error occurs on cycle temperature when power
source of the air conditioner has been turned on,
and if start/stop times of the outdoor unit are 30
times, move the valve once until it hits on the
stopper for positioning of the valve. In this case,
ticktack sound may be heard.
(1) Vertical air flow louvers
Positions of v ertical air flow louvers are automatically controlled according to the operation
status (AUTO, COOL, DRY, HEAT). Besides,
positions of vertical air flow louvers can be
arbitrarily set by pressing the [SET] button. The
louver position which has been set by the [SET]
button is stored in microcomputer , and the louv er
is automatically set at the stored position in the
next operation.
(2) Swing
If the [AUTO] button is pressed during running
operation, vertical air flow louvers start swinging.
When the [AUTO] button is pressed again,
swinging stops.
8-1-7. Indoor Fan Control (DC Fan Motor)
The indoor fan is operated by motor speed non-step
variable DC drive system motor. For flow rate, motor
speed is controlled manually in three steps (LOW,
MED , HIGH), and with the unit of 10 rpm from upper
limit to lower limit in AUTO mode as described in
Table 8-1-2. It is not selected by relay, so selecting
sound does not generate.

Although the outdoor fan motor drives the outdoor fan b y non-step variable system of the revolution speed, the
revolution speed is restricted to three steps on the conv enience of controlling. If a strong wind is lashing outside
of the room, the operation may be continued as the outdoor fan stops in order to protect the outdoor fan motor.
If a fan lock occurred due to entering of foreign matter, the air conditioner stops and an alarm is displayed.

(1) Cooling capacity control
• The cooling capacity and room temperature
are controlled by changing the compressor
motor speed according to both the difference
between the temperature detected by the
room temperature sensor and the temperature
set by TEMP button and also any change in
room temperature.
• When compressor has been activated or
reactivated, it operates with Max. 28 rps for 1
minute, with Max. 57 rps from 1 minute to 3
minutes, and with Max. 83 rps after 3 minutes
passed.
• When room temperature is lower than set
temperature, indoor fan motor is oper ated at
fan speed L– as shown in Fig. 8-2-2 while the
outdoor unit stops.
(2) Prevent-freezing control
If temperature of indoor heat exchanger detected by the indoor heat exchanger sensor is
5°C or lower , compressor motor speed is
gradually lowered to prevent freezing of the
indoor heat exchanger . If temperature is 7°C or
higher, return the operation to the abov e item
(1).
(3) Current release control
The input current of compressor and outdoor fan
motor (Precisely inverter main circuit control
section) which occupy most of air conditioner
input is detected by the outdoor current sensor ,
and compressor motor speed is gradually
lowered so that current value does not exceed
11,5A if current value exceeds 11,5A. When the
current value lowers to 11,0A, return the operation to the above item (1).

(4) Outdoor temperature release control
The outdoor temperature release is controlled by
changing the current release points 11,5 and
11,0 in the above item according to temperature
detected by the outdoor temperature sensor .
For e xample, if the outdoor temperature is 43°C,
the value of current release point becomes 8,0A.

(5) Limit for maximum compressor motor speed
by indoor fan speed
When outdoor temperature sensor detected
32°C or lower , and indoor heat exchanger
sensor detected 17°C or lower , the maxim um
compressor motor speed is limited by the indoor
fan speed.
For example , when 1 unit only operates , the
compressor motor speed is limited as described
in the table below.

(6) Louver control
The vertical air flow louvers are automatically set
to horizontal or cool memory position.
When temperature of indoor heat exchanger
becomes 5°C or lower by the pre v ent-freezing
control and the compressor is turned off, the
vertical air flow louvers close once and then
return to the position of previous time.
(7) Discharge temperature control
(Common control to cooling and heating)
The discharge temperature of refrigerant gas
from the compressor is detected by the discharge temperature sensor, and controls operating compressor motor speed.
1) Control 1 (A zone) : Normal operation zone
When TD detect value is 101°C or lower, the
operation is performed with operating motor
speed instructed by the serial signal.
2) Control 2 (B zone) : Slow-up zone of motor
speed
When TD detect v alue is 101°C or higher,
operating motor speed is slowly up .
3) Control 3 (C zone) : Keep zone
When TD detect v alue is 108°C or higher,
operating motor speed is not changed if
raising operation speed.
4) Control 4 (D zone) : Slow down zone of motor
speed
When TD detect v alue is 111°C or higher,
operating motor speed is slowly down.
5) Control 5 (E zone) : Normal down of motor
speed
When TD detect v alue is 115°C or higher,
operating motor speed is down.
6) Control 6 (F zone) : Operation stop zone
If TD detect v alue exceeds 120°C during
operation, stop the operation immediately.
Then, restart the operation when TD detect

9-1. Safety Cautions
Power supply cord of parts of appliance for outdoor use
For general public use
UK PLUGS AND SOCKETS ETC (SAFETY) REGULATIONS 1994, SI NUMBER 1768
With regard to Schedule 3, item 7 of the above UK Regulations, this appliance must be permanently
connected to the fixed wiring of the main electrical supply by means other than the use of an
approved 13 Amp plug-top as outlined in the Regulations.
Electrical work must be carried by suitably qualified persons and in accordance with all relevant
safety standards and codes of practice.
We recommend that the power supply for this appliance is deriv ed from a suitably protected
dedicated circuit.
CAUTIONNew 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 impurity such as water, oxidizing membrane, and oils
because pressure of R410A refrigerant is approx. 1,6 times of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with
adoption of the new refrigerant, refrigerating machine oil has been also changed. Theref ore, during
installation work, be sure that water, dust, f ormer refrigerant, or refrigerating machine oil does not
enter into the refrigerating cycle of new-refrigerant air conditioner.
T o pre vent mixing of refrigerant or refrigerating machine oil, the sizes of connecting sections of charging
port of the main unit or installation tools are different from those for the conventional refrigerant.
Accordingly , the exclusiv e tools are required for the ne w refrigerant (R410A) as shown below.
For connecting pipes, use new and clean piping materials with high pressure-tight f orce, which w ere
made for R410A only , so that water or dust does not enter. Moreov er, do not use the existing piping
because there are problems about pressure-tight force and inner impurity in the existing piping.
CAUTIONTo Disconnect the Appliance from the Mains Supply .
This appliance must be connected to the mains by means of a circuit breaker or a switch with a
contact separation of at least 3 mm.

9-3-8. Evacuating
After the piping has been connected to all indoor
unit(s), you can perform the air purge together at
once.
AIR PURGE
Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and
in the indoor unit using vacuum pump.
Do not use the refrigerant in the outdoor unit.
For details, see the manual of vacuum pump.
Use a vacuum pump
Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow
prevention function so that inside oil of the pump
does not flow backward into pipes of the air
conditioner when the pump stops. (If inside oil of
the vacuum pump enters into the air conditioner
which adopts R410A, a trouble of the refrigeration
cycle may be caused.)
1. Connect the charge hose from the manifold
valve to the service port of the gas side
packed valv e.
2. Connect the charge hose to the port of
vacuum pump.
3. Open fully the low pressure side handle of the
gauge manifold valve.
4. Operate the vacuum pump to start for
evacuating.
Perform e vacuating f or about 15 min utes if the
total piping length is 30 meters. (15 minutes
for 30 meters) (assuming a pump capacity of
27 liters per minute.)
Then confirm that the pressure gauge reading
is –101 kPa ( –76 cmHg).
5. Close the low pressure side valve handle of
gauge manifold.
6. Open fully the valve stem of the packed
valves (both side of Gas and Liquid).
7. Remove the charging hose from the service
port.
8. Securely tighten the caps on the packed valves.

9-3-10. Check and Test Operation
For R410A, use the leak detector exclusively
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 becomes approx. 1,6 times
of that of R22. If installation work was
incompletely finished, a gas leakage may
occur in the cases such as pressure rise
during operation. Theref ore, be sure to test the
piping connections for leaking.
Flare nut connections
(Indoor unit)
• Flare nut connections
(Outdoor unit)
• Valve stem cap connection
• Service port cap connection
Fig. 9-3-16
• Check the flare nut connections, valve stem
cap connections and service port cap
connections for gas leak with a leak detector or
soap water.
CAUTION
• Use a circuit breaker of a type that is not
tripped by shock waves.
• If incorrect/incomplete wiring is carried out,
it will cause an electrical fire or smoke.
• Prepare the power source for exclusive use
with the air conditioner.
• This product can be connected to the mains.
Connection to fixed wiring :
A switch or circuit breaker which
disconnects all poles and has a contact
separation of at least 3 mm must be
incorporate in the fixed wiring.
An approved short circuit breaker or
switches must be used.
(A breaker having a sensitivity of
*
approximately 0,1 second or less and
a capacity of approximately 30 mA is
usually used.)
9-3-11. MISWIRING (MISPIPING) CHECK
Make sure that the wiring and piping for each
room have the same alphabetical code (A, B, C).
Connect and secure the power cord.
Use the power cord / cables with thickness, type,
and protective devices specified in this manual.
Insulate the unused cords (conductors) with PVC
tape.
1. Turn on the electrical power breaker.
2. Operate the indoor unit with cooling mode.
3. Start the check.
• Run the indoor unit in A room, and confirm
cool air blows out.
• Confirm the indoor units in B, C rooms do
not run. (In this time, also check flowing
sound of refrigerant is not heard.)
• Stop operation of the indoor unit in A
room, and execute the same checks on
the indoor unit in B and C rooms.
9-3-12. Useful Functions
Self-Diagnosis by LED Indication
• For this outdoor unit, the self-diagnosis is
possible by using five LEDs (Red).
• Refer to the table in page 61, for more details.
LEDs (Red) (D11 to D15) locate on the sub-
*
control board underneath of the inverter.
1. If a trouble occurs, LED (Red) goes on
according to the contents of trouble as shown
in the left table.
2. When two or more troubles occur, LEDs go on
cyclically (alternately).
3. Usually, LEDs (Red) go off .

In the case of an air conditioner using R410A, in order to prevent any other refrigerant from being
charged accidentally, to service port diameter of the outdoor unit control valve (3 way v alv e) 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)

conventional gauge. In order to prevent any other refrigerant from
being charged, each port diameter has been changed.
In order to increase pressure resisting strength, hose materials and
port size have been changed (to 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch).
When purchasing a charge hose, be sure to confirm 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 by using conventional flare tool.
Connected to 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 ports-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.
Exclusive for HFC refrigerant.
• 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.

NOTE :
A large-capacity electrolytic capacitor is used in the
outdoor unit controller (inverter). Therefore, if the
power supply is turned off, charge (charging voltage
DC280V) remains and discharging takes a lot of
time. After turning off the pow er source, if touching
the charging section before discharging, an electrical shock may be caused. Discharge the electrolytic
capacitor completely by using soldering iron, etc.
< Discharging method >
(1) Remove the inverter cover (plating) b y opening
four mounting claws.
(2) As shown below, connect the discharge resis-
tance (approx. 100Ω40W) or plug of the soldering iron to voltage between + – terminals of the

10-10. How to Simply Judge Whether Outdoor Fan Motor is Good or Bad
1. Symptom
• Outdoor fan motor does not rotate.
• Outdoor fan motor stops within several tens seconds though it started rotating.
• Outdoor fan motor rotates or does not rotate according to the position where the fan stopped., etc.
Remote control check code “02 : Outdoor block, 1A : Outdoor fan drive system error”
2. Cause
The following causes are considered when the outdoor f an motor does not normally rotate.
1) Mechanical lock of the outdoor fan motor
2) Winding error of the outdoor fan motor
3) Position-detect circuit error inside of the outdoor f an motor
or
4) Motor drive circuit error of the outdoor P.C. board
3. How to simply judge whether outdoor fan motor is good or bad
Turn OFF the breaker.
Disconnect two connectors (CN300 and CN301)
of the outdoor fan motor from the inverter.
Does the fan rotate without trouble
when rotating it with hands?
YES
If the resistance value between
1 (Red lead)– 2 (White lead)
2 (White lead) – 3 (Black lead)
3 (Black lead) – 1 (Red lead)
1 (Yellow lead) – 4 (Pink lead)
(CN301 : Motor position detection)
of the connector
(CN300 : Motor winding)
is 50 to 80
If the resistance value between
of the connector
is 5k to 20k , it is normal.
Fan motor is normal.
(Outdoor P.C. board error)
, it is normal.
YES
YES
NO
NO

NOTE :
Howe ver, GND circuit error inside of the motor may be accepted in some cases when the above check is
performed.
When the fan motor does not become normal even if P.C. board is replaced, replace the outdoor f an motor.
