∗∗
Refrigerant
Check the used refrigerant name and use tools and materials of the parts which
match with it.
For the products which use R410A refrigerant, the refrigerant name is indicated at a position
on the outdoor unit where is easy to see. To prevent miss-charging, the route of the service
port is changed from one of the former R22.
For an air conditioner which uses R410A, never use other refrigerant than R410A.
For an air conditioner which uses other refrigerant (R22, etc.), never use R410A.
If different types of refrigerant are mixed, abnormal high pressure generates in the
refrigerating cycle and an injury due to breakage may be caused.
Do not charge refrigerant additionally.
If charging refrigerant additionally when refrigerant gas leaks, the refrigerant composition in
the refrigerating cycle changes resulted in change of air conditioner characteristics or
refrigerant over the specified standard amount is charged and an abnormal high pressure is
applied to the inside of the refrigerating cycle resulted in cause of breakage or injury.
Therefore if the refrigerant gas leaks, recover the refrigerant in the air conditioner, execute
vacuuming, and then newly recharge the specified amount of liquid refrigerant.
In this time, never charge the refrigerant over the specified amount.
When recharging the refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle, do not mix the refrigerant
or air other than R410A into the specified refrigerant.
If air or others is mixed with the refrigerant, abnormal high pressure generates in the
refrigerating cycle resulted in cause of injury due to breakage.
After installation work, check the refrigerant gas does not leak.
If the refrigerant gas leaks in the room, poisonous gas generates when gas touches to fire
such as fan heater, stove or cocking stove though the refrigerant gas itself is innocuous.
Never recover the refrigerant into the outdoor unit.
When the equipment is moved or repaired, be sure to recover the refrigerant with recovering
device. The refrigerant cannot be recovered in the outdoor unit; otherwise a serious accident
such as breakage or injury is caused.
Assembly/Cabling
After repair work, surely assemble the disassembled parts, and connect and lead the
removed wires as before. Perform the work so that the cabinet or panel does not
catch the inner wires.
If incorrect assembly or incorrect wire connection was done, a disaster such as a leak or fire
is caused at user’s side.

WARNING
Insulator check
Ventilation
Be attentive to
electric shock
Compulsion
After the work has finished, be sure to use an insulation tester set (500V Megger) to
check the resistance is 2M
metal section (Earth position).
If the resistance value is low, a disaster such as a leak or electric shock is caused at user’s
side.
When the refrigerant gas leaks during work, execute ventilation.
If the refrigerant gas touches to a fire, poisonous gas generates.
A case of leakage of the refrigerant and the closed room full with gas is dangerous because
a shortage of oxygen occurs. Be sure to execute ventilation.
When checking the circuit inevitably under condition of the power-ON, use rubber
gloves and others not to touch to the charging section.
If touching to the charging section, an electric shock may be caused.
When the refrigerant gas leaks, find up the leaked position and repair it surely.
If the leaked position cannot be found up and the repair work is interrupted, pump-down and
tighten the service valve, otherwise the refrigerant gas may leak into the room.
The poisonous gas generates when gas touches to fire such as fan heater, stove or cocking
stove though the refrigerant gas itself is innocuous.
When installing equipment which includes a large amount of charged refrigerant such
as a multi air conditioner in a sub-room, it is necessary that the density does not the
limit even if the refrigerant leaks.
If the refrigerant leaks and exceeds the limit density, an accident of shortage of oxygen is
caused.
For the installation/moving/reinstallation work, follow to the Installation Manual.
If an incorrect installation is done, a trouble of the refrigerating cycle, water leak, electric
shock or fire is caused.

Cooling check
After repair work has finished, check there is no trouble.
If check is not executed, a fire, electric shock or injury may be caused.
For a check, turn off the power breaker.
After repair work (installation of front panel and cabinet) has finished, execute a test
run to check there is no generation of smoke or abnormal sound.
If check is not executed, a fire or an electric shock is caused.
Before test run, install the front panel and cabinet.
Check the following items after reinstallation.
1) The earth wire is correctly connected.
2) The power cord is not caught in the product.
3) There is no inclination or unsteadiness and the installation is stable.
If check is not executed, a fire, an electric shock or an injury is caused.
CAUTION
Be sure to put on the gloves (∗) and a long sleeved shirt:
otherwise an injury may be caused with the parts, etc.
(∗) Heavy gloves such as wor k gloves
When the power was turned on, start to work after the equipment has been
sufficiently cooled.
As temperature of the compressor pipes and others became high due to cooling/heating
operation, a burn may be caused.

•New Refrigerant (R410A)
This air conditioner adopts a new HFC type refrigerant (R410A) which does not deplete the ozone layer.
1. Safety Caution Concerned to New Refrigerant
The pressure of R410A is high 1.6 times of that of the former refrigerant (R22).
Accompanied with change of refrigerant, the refrigerating oil has been also changed.
Therefore, be sure that water, dust, the former refrigerant or the former refrigerating oil is not mixed into the
refrigerating cycle of the air conditioner with new refrigerant during installation work or service work.
If an incorrect work or incorrect service is performed, there is a possibility to cause a serious accident.
Use the tools and materials exclusive to R410A to purpose a safe work.
2. Cautions on Installation/Service
1) Do not mix the other refrigerant or refrigerating oil.
For the tools exclusive to R410A, shapes of all the joints including the service port differ from those of
the former refrigerant in order to prevent mixture of them.
2) As the use pressure of the new refrigerant is high, use material thickness of the pipe and tools which are
specified for R410A.
3) In the installation time, use clean pipe materials and work with great attention so that water and others do
not mix in because pipes are affected by impurities such as water, oxide scales, oil, etc.
Use the clean pipes.
Be sure to brazing with flowing nitrogen gas. (Never use gas other than nitrogen gas.)
4) For the earth protection, use a vacuum pump for air purge.
5) R410A refrigerant is azeotropic mixture type refrigerant.
Therefore use liquid type to charge the refrigerant. (If using gas for charging, composition of the
refrigerant changes and then characteristics of the air conditioner change.)
3. Pipe Materials
For the refrigerant pipes, copper pipe and joints are mainly used.
It is necessary to select the most appropriate pipes to conform to the standard.
Use clean material in which impurities adhere inside of pipe or joint to a minimum.
1) Copper pipe
<Piping>
The pipe thickness, flare finishing size, flare nut and others differ according to a refrigerant type.
When using a long copper pipe for R410A, it is recommended to select “Copper or copper-base pipe
without seam” and one with bonded oil amount 40mg/10m or less.
Also do not use crushed, deformed, discolored (especially inside) pipes.
(Impurities cause clogging of expansion valves and capillar y tubes.)
<Flare nut>
Use the flare nuts which are attached to the air conditioner unit.
2) Joint
The flare joint and socket joint are used for joints of the copper pipe.
The joints are rarely used for installation of the air conditioner. However clear impurities when using them.

Page 8
4. Tools
1. Required T ools for R410A
Mixing of different types 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 conventional refrigerant (R22)
The table below shows the tools exclusive for R410A and their interchangeability.

6. 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.
6-1. 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 necessar y 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 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 refr igeration 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 may result in water leakage,
electric shock and fire, etc.
6-2. Refrigerant Piping Installation
6-2-1. 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.
Further more, 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 6-2-1. Never use copper
pipes thinner than 0.8mm even when it is available on the market.
NOTE:
Refer to the “6-6. Instructions for Re-use Piping
of R22 or R407C”.

1. 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 6-2-3 to 6-2-5 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 socket joints are as shown in Table 6-2-2.

6-2-2. 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, 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 may occur.
Carefully remove all burrs and clean the cut surface before installation.
– 36 –
Page 37
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.
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.

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 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.
When it is strong, the flare nut may crack and may be made non-removable.
When choosing the tightening torque, comply with values designated by manufacturers.
Table 6-2-6 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.

6-4. 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.
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.
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.)
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

and the characteristics of the equipment varies.
6-5. Brazing of Pipes
6-5-1. 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.
Fig. 6-4-2
Electronic
balance
Siphon
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.
6-5-2. Flux
1. Reason why flux is necessary
• By removing the oxide film and any foreign
matter on the metal surface, it assists the 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.
– 40 –
Page 41
2. Characteristics required for flux
• Activated temperature of flux coincides with
the brazing temperature.
• Due to a wide effective temperature 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 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
brazing filler/flux
6-5-3. 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
flow.
Never use gas other than Nitrogen gas.
1. Brazing method to prevent oxidation
1) Attach a reducing valve and a flo w-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 water
which does not contain chlorine
(e.g. distilled water or ion-exchange water).
4) Remove the flux after brazing.

6-6. Instructions for Re-use Piping of R22 or R407C
Instruction of Works:
The existing R22 and R407C piping can be
reused for our digital inverter R410A products
installations.
NOTE)
Confirmation of existence of scratch or dent of the
former pipes to be applied and also confirmation of
reliability of the pipe strength are conventionally
referred to the local site.
If the definite conditions can be cleared,
it is possible to update the existing R22 and
R407C pipes to those for R410A models.
6-6-1. Basic Conditions Needed to Reuse the
Existing Pipe
Check and observe three conditions of the refrigerant
piping works.
1. Dry(There is no moisture inside of the pipes.)
2. Clean (There is no dust inside of the pipes.)
3. Tight (There is no refrigerant leak.)
6-6-2. Restricted Items to Use the Existing Pipes
In the following cases, the existing pipes cannot be
reused as they are. Clean the existing pipes or
exchange them with new pipes.
1. When a scratch or dent is heavy, be sure to use the
new pipes for the wor ks.
2. When the thickness of the existing pipe is thinner
than the specified “Pipe diameter and thickness” be
sure to use the new pipes for the wor ks.
• The operating pressure of R410A is high
(1.6 times of R22 and R407C). If there is a scratch
or dent on the pipe or thinner pipe is used, the
pressure strength is poor and may cause breakage of the pipe at the worst.
∗ Pipe diameter and thickness (mm)
Pipe outer diameter

Thickness
• In case that the pipe diameter is Ø12.7 mm or less
and the thickness is less than 0.7 mm, be sure to use
the new pipes for works.
3. The pipes are left as coming out or gas leaks.
(Poor refrigerant)
• There is possibility that rain water or air including
moisture enters in the pipe.
4. Refrigerant recovery is impossible.

• There is possibility that a large quantity of poor
oil or moisture remains inside of the pipe.
5. A dryer on the market is attached to the existing
pipes.
• There is possibility that copper green rust
generated.
6. Check the oil when the existing air conditioner was
removed after refrigerant had been recovered.
In this case, if the oil is judged as clearly different
compared with normal oil
• The refrigerator oil is copper rust green :
There is possibility that moisture is mixed with the
oil and rust generates inside of the pipe.
• There is discolored oil, a large quantity of the
remains, or bad smell.
• A large quantity of sparkle remained wear-out
powder is observed in the refrigerator oil.
7. The air conditioner which compressor was exchanged due to a faulty compressor.
When the discolored oil, a large quantity of the
remains, mixture of foreign matter, or a large
quantity of sparkle remained wear-out powder is
observed, the cause of trouble will occur.
8. Installation and removal of the air conditioner are
repeated with temporary installation by lease and
etc.
9. In case that type of the refrigerator oil of the
existing air conditioner is other than the following oil
(Mineral oil), Suniso, Freol-S, MS (Synthetic oil),
alkyl benzene (HAB, Barrel-freeze), ester series,
PVE only of ether series.
• Winding-insulation of the compressor may
become inferior.
NOTE)
The above descriptions are results of confirmation by
our company and they are views on our air
conditioners, but they do not guarantee the use of the
existing pipes of the air conditioner that adopted
R410A in other companies.
6-6-3. Branching Pipe for Simultaneous
Operation System
• In the concurrent twin, triple systems, when TOSHIBA-
specified branching pipe is used, it can be reused.
Branching pipe model name:
RBC-TWP30E-2, RBC-TWP50E-2, RBC-TRP100E
On the existing air conditioner for simultaneous
operation system (twin, triple systems), there is a
case of using branch pipe that has insufficient
compressive strength.
In this case please change it to the branch pipe for
R410A.
6-6-4. Curing of Pipes
When removing and opening the indoor unit or outdoor
unit for a long time, cure the pipes as follows:
• Otherwise rust may generate when moisture or
foreign matter due to dewing enters in the pipes.
• The rust cannot be removed by cleaning, and a new
piping work is necessary.

Clean the pipes or use the new pipes.
If you are in trouble of
pipe cleaning, please contact us.
Connect the indoor/outdoor units to the existing pipe.
• Use a flare nut attached to the main unit for the
indoor/outdoor units.
(Do not use the flare nut of the existing pipe.)
• Re-machine the flare machining size to size for R410A.
In case that the gas pipe Ø19 mm is used for the
outdoor unit of SM803 (3 HP) or higher:
(Gas pipe size of our R410A model 3 to 6 HP is Ø15.9 mm)
→ Turn the existing pipe switch on the cycle control

6-6-6. Handling of Existing Pipe
When using the existing pipe, carefully check it for the following:
• Wall thickness (within the specified range)
• Scratches and dents
• Water, oil, dirt, or dust in the pipe
• Flare looseness and leakage from welds
• Deter ioration of copper pipe and heat insulator
Cautions for using existing pipe
• Do not reuse the flare to prevent gas leak.
Replace it with the supplied flare nut and then process it to a flare.
• Blow nitrogen gas or use an appropriate means to keep the inside of the pipe clean.
If discolored oil or much residue is discharged, wash the pipe.
• Check welds, if any, on the pipe for gas leak.
When the pipe corresponds to any of the following, do not use it. Install a new pipe instead.
• The pipe has been open (disconnected from indoor unit or outdoor unit) for a long period.
• The pipe has been connected to an outdoor unit that does not use refr igerant R22, R410A or R407C.
• The existing pipe must have a wall thickness equal to or larger than the following thickness.
Reference outside diameter

• Never use any pipe with a wall thickness less than
these thicknesses due to insufficient pressure capacity.
• To use an existing Ø19.1 mm pipe, set bit 5 of
SW801 (switch for existing pipe) on the P.C. board of
the outdoor unit to ON.
In this case, the heating performance may be
reduced depending on the outside air temperature
and room temperature.

8. CIRCUIT CONFIGURATION AND CONTROL SPECIFICATIONS
8-1. Outdoor Controls
8-1-1. Outline of Main Controls
1. Pulse Motor Valve (PMV) control
1) For PMV with 45 to 500 pulses during operation, respectively.
2) In cooling operation, PMV is controlled with the temperature diff erence betw een TS sensor and TC sensor.
3) In heating operation, PMV is controlled with the temperature diff erence betw een TS sensor and TE sensor.
4) For the temperature difference in items 2) and 3), 1 to 5K is aimed as the target in both cooling and
heating operations.
5) When the cycle excessively rose in both cooling and heating operations, PMV is controlled by TD sensor.
The aimed value is usually 92°C for SM160 in both cooling and heating operations.
REQUIREMENT
A sensor trouble may cause a liquid back-flow or abnormal overheat resulting in excessive shortening of the
compressor life. In a case of trouble on the compressor, be sure to check there is no error in the resistance
value an the refrigerating cycle of each sensor after repair and then start the operation.
2. Discharge temperature release control
1) This function controls the operation frequency, that
is, lowers the operation frequency when the
discharge temperature has not lower or the
discharge temperature has rapidly risen during
PMV control. It subdivides the frequency control
up to a unit of 0.6 Hz to stabilize the cycle.
2) When the discharge temperature is detected in an
abnormal stop zone, the unit stops the compressor and restarts after 2 minutes 30 seconds. The
error counter is cleared when it has continued the
operation for 10 minutes.
If the abnormal stop zone has been detected by 4
times without clearing of counter, an error “P03” is
displayed.
∗ The cause is considered as excessively little
amount of refrigerant, defective PMV, or clogging
of cycle.

1) Cooling fan control
The outdoor fan is controlled by TE, TD, and TO sensors and also revolution frequency of the opera-
Q
tion. The outdoor is controlled by every 1 tap of DC fan control (15 taps).
Only during 60 seconds after the operation has started, the fan is fixed with the maximum fan tap
R
which corresponds to the zone in the following table.
After then the fan is controlled by TE sensor temperature.
Considering a case that TE sensor has come out of the holder, the fan is controlled so that revolution
S
frequency of the fan increases regardless of TE if temperature of TD sensor has risen.

The outdoor fan is controlled by TE sensor, TO sensor and the operation frequency.
Q
(From Min. W1 to Max. are controlled according to the following table.)
During 3 minutes after start-up, the fan is fixed
R
with the maximum fan tap corresponding to
zone in the following table. After then the fan is
controlled by temperature of TE sensor.
If status, TE > 24°C continues for 5 minutes, the
S
operation stops. This status is same to the
usual Thermo-OFF which has no alarm display,
and the fan restarts after 2 minutes and 30
seconds. This intermittent operation is not
abnormal.
When the above status R occurs frequently, it
T
is considered that the filter of suction part of the
indoor unit is stain. Clean the filter and then
restart the operation.

5. Coil heating control
1) This control function heats the compressor by turning on the stopped compressor instead of a case
heater. It purposes to prevent slac kness of the refrigerant inside of the compressor.
2) As usual, turn on power of the compressor for the specified time before a test run after installation,
otherwise a trouble of the compressor may be caused.
As same as a test run, it is recommended to turn on power of the compressor beforehand when starting
operation after power of the compressor has been interrupted for a long time.
3) A judgment for electricity is performed by TD and TO sensors. If TO sensor is defective, a backup control
is automatically performed by TE sensor.
For a case of defective TO sensor, judge it with the outdoor LED display.
4) The power is turned off when TD is 30°C or more.

Page 67
6. Short intermittent operation preventive control
1) For 3 to 10 minutes after operation start, in some cases, the compressor does not stop to protect the
compressor even if receiving the thermostat-OFF signal from indoor.
However it is not abnormal status. (The operation continuance differs according to the operation status.)
2) When the operation stops by the remote controller, the operation does not continue.
7. High pressure restraint TE control
1) Control to restraint abnormal rising of high pressure in cooling operation
2) Stop the compressor at TE ≥ 67°C and the error is counted by 1.
3) After 2 minutes and 30 seconds, if TE < 67°C, restart the compressor.
When the operation continues for 10 minutes, the error count is cleared.
4) If TE ≥ 67°C was detected again within 10 minutes, add 1 to the error count and then repeat to restart
the compressor.
5) When the error count 10 is detected, determine it as an error.
Do not restart the compressor. The error “P04” is displayed.
6) After restart of the compressor, control the current release by lowering control value by 70% to 90% for
minimum 30 minutes or more.
8. Over-current protective control
1) When the over-current protective circuit detected an abnormal current, stop the compressor.
2) Restart the compressor 2 minutes and 30 seconds after the error count 1 was indicated.
3) When the error is determined as the error count 8, do not restart the compressor.
The error display is “H01”, “H02” or “P26”.
9. Current release value shift control
1) This control purposes to prevent trouble of the electronic parts such as G-Tr, etc of the inverter in the
compressor driving system and trouble of the compressor.
2) This control corrects the current release control value (11) of item 3. by TO sensor value.
3) The correction amount is based on the following control diagram and correction amount table.

10-2-4. Distinction of error mode by LED indication of outdoor unit
On the Type AP112, AP140 and AP160, a Dip switch (SW801) and LED are provided on the P.C. board of the
outdoor unit.
Exchanging this Dip switch enables users to know the status of the outdoor unit in that time.
Lighting status of LED enables users to know the distinction stage before trouble of the outdoor unit will be
determined and displayed on the remote controller.
Depending on the indoor unit to be combined, the error of the outdoor temperature sensor (TO) may be
confirmed on LED indication only.
