General precautions on wiring  
Right tubing  
outlet  
(1) Before wiring, confirm the rated voltage of the unit as  
shown on its nameplate, then carry out the wiring  
closely following the wiring diagram.  
(2) Provide a power outlet to be used exclusively for  
each unit, with a power supply disconnect and cir-  
cuit breaker for overcurrent protection provided in  
the exclusive line.  
Fig. 21  
(3) To prevent possible hazards due to insulation failure,  
the unit must be grounded.  
(4) Each wiring connection must be done tightly and in  
accordance with the wiring system diagram. Wrong  
wiring may cause the unit to misoperate or become  
damaged.  
Fig. 22  
(5) Do not allow wiring to touch the refrigerant tubing,  
compressor, or any moving parts of the fan.  
(6) Unauthorized changes in the internal wiring can be  
very dangerous. The manufacturer will accept no  
responsibility for any damage or misoperation that  
occurs as a result of such unauthorized changes.

5-1. Use of the Flaring Method  
Many of the conventional split system air conditioners  
employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes  
which run between indoor and outdoor units. In this  
method, the copper tubes are flared at each end and  
connected with flare nuts.  
5-2. Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool  
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a  
tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 12" to  
20" (30 to 50 cm) longer than the tubing length you  
estimate.  
Fig. 47  
Copper

(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a  
tube reamer or file. This process is important and  
should be done carefully to make a good flare.  
(Fig. 47)  
Reamer  
NOTE  
When reaming, hold the tube end downward and be  
sure that no copper scraps fall into the tube. (Fig. 48)

b) Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the match-  
ing surfaces of the flare and union before connect-  
ing them together. This is effective for reducing gas  
leaks. (Fig. 50)

After a tube has been insulat-  
ed, never try to bend it into a  
narrow curve, as this may  
cause the tube to break or  
crack.  
CAUTION  
Clamp  
Insulated tubes  
(1) At this time, the 2 refrigerant tubes (and electrical wire  
if local codes permit) should be taped together with  
armoring tape. The drain hose may also be included  
and taped together as 1 bundle with the tubing.  
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor  
unit to the top of the tubing where it enters the wall. As  
you wrap the tubing, overlap half of each previous tape  
turn. (Fig. 55)  
Fig. 55  
(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to wall, using 1 clamp approx.  
every 47" (120 cm).  
Apply putty here  
NOTE  
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly, since this will  
decrease the heat insulation effect. Also, be sure the con-  
densation drain hose splits away from the bundle and drips  
clear of the unit and the tubing.

6. Air Purging  
Indoor unit  
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system  
have undesirable effects as indicated below. Therefore,  
they must be purged completely.  
G pressure in the system rises  
G operating current rises  
G cooling (or heating) efficiency drops  
G moisture in the air may freeze and block capillary tubing  
Outdoor unit  
G water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant  
system  
I Air Purging with a Vacuum Pump (for Test Run)  
(1) Check that each tube (both narrow and wide tubes)  
between the indoor and outdoor units have been  
properly connected and all wiring for the test run  
has been completed. Note that both narrow and  
wide tube service valves on the outdoor unit are  
kept closed at this stage.  
(2) Using an adjustable wrench or box wrench, remove  
the valve caps from the service valve on both nar-  
row and wide tubes.  
Manifold valve  
(Exclusively for R410A)  
(3) Connect a vacuum pump and a manifold valve (with  
pressure gauges) to the service port on the wide  
tube service valve. (Fig. 57)  
Lo  
Hi  
Pressure  
gauge  
The service port on the wide tube  
service valve uses a Schrader core  
valve to access the refrigerant sys-  
tem. The valve core is similar to  
those used in automobile tires.  
Therefore, be sure to use a vacuum  
hose connector which has a push-  
pin inside.  
CAUTION  
Charging hose  
(Exclusively for R410A)  
Vacuum pump adapter  
(Exclusively for R410A)  
(with reverse flow prevention)  
Vacuum pump  
Be sure to use a manifold valve  
for air purging. If it is not avail-  
able, use a stop valve (field sup-  
ply) for this purpose. The “Hi”  
knob of the manifold valve must  
always be kept closed.  
CAUTION  
Fig. 57  
NOTE  
To prevent other refrigerants from being mistakenly  
charged to units which use R410A, the size of the  
charge port on the service valve is different from the  
one for other refrigerant types. For servicing such as  
recharging, the specified charging hose, manifold and  
vacuum pump adapter (with reverse flow prevention)  
for R410A must be used.  
(4) With the “Lo” knob of the manifold valve open, run  
the vacuum pump. The operation time for the vacu-  
um pump varies with tubing length and the capacity  
of the pump. The following table shows the amount  
of time for evacuation:  
Table 7  
Required time for evacuation when  
100 liter/h vacuum pump is used  
NOTE  
If tubing length is  
less than 33 ft. (10 m)  
If tubing length is  
more than 33 ft. (10 m)  
The required time in Table 7 is calculated based on the  
assumption that the ideal (or target) vacuum condition  
is around 10 mmHg abs.  
10 min. or more  
15 min. or more

(5) With the vacuum pump still running, close the “Lo”  
knob of the manifold valve. Then stop the vacuum  
pump.  
90° (1/4 turn)  
Narrow tube  
(6) With the accessory hex wrench, turn the valve stem  
on the narrow tube service valve counter-clockwise  
by 90 degrees (1/4 turn) for 10 seconds, and then  
turn the stem clockwise to close it again. (Fig. 58)  
Hex wrench  
Wide tube  
Be sure to completely insert  
CAUTION  
the hex wrench before

Valve cap  
Vacuum hose to manifold valve  
(7) Leak test all joints at the tubing (both indoor and out-  
doors) with soapy water. Bubbles indicate a leak. Tight-  
en the joint more when leaks, then check if there is no  
leak. Be sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.  
Fig. 58  
(8) With the hex wrench, turn the wide tube service  
valve stem counter-clockwise to fully open the valve.  
(9) Turn the narrow tube service valve stem counter-  
clockwise to fully open the valve.  
(10) Loosen the vacuum hose connected to the wide  
tube service port slightly to release the pressure.  
Then, remove the hose.  
This may cause the refriger-  
ant gas to leak. In order to  
avoid this, take off the hose  
quickly.  
CAUTION  
(11) Fasten the valve cap on the wide tube service port  
securely with an adjustable wrench or box wrench.  
Next, mount the valve cap on the service valve and  
tighten it to 170 lbs·in (200 kgf·cm) with a torque  
wrench. This process is very important to prevent  
gas from leaking from the system.  
(12) Test run the air conditioner. (See next page.)  
(13) While the air conditioner is running, apply liquid  
soap to check for any gas leaks around the service  
valves or caps.  
(14) If there is no leakage, stop the air conditioner.  
(15) Wipe off the soap on the tubing.  
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump and the  
air conditioner is ready for actual operation.

system back into the outdoor unit without losing any of  
the gas. Pump down is used when the unit is to be  
moved or before servicing the refrigerant circuit.  
(3) Press the operation button and start cooling oper-  
ation.  
Pump Down Procedure  
Be sure to carry out pump down with the unit in  
cooling mode.  
(4) When the low pressure gauge reading falls to 14.2 to  
7.1 psi (1 to 0.5 kg/cm2), fully close the wide tube  
valve stem. Then quickly stop the unit.  
(1) Connect the Lo side charging hose of the manifold  
valve to the service port on the wide tube service  
valve.  
(5) Disconnect all gauges and hoses, and replace the  
valve caps as they were before.
