1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

For general public use

Power supply cord of outdoor unit shall be more than 1.5 mm²(H07RN-F or 245IEC66) 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.

The installation fuse (25A D type

) must be used for the power supply line of this air conditioner.

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 VERY 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 by-pass 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 cables 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 performed for a long time under the condition that the outdoor tem-

perature 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 anti freeze heater locally for a safety installation of the air conditioner.

For details, contact the dealer.

3. REFRIGERANT R410A

This air conditioner adopts the new refrigerant HFC

(R410A) which does not damage the ozone layer.

(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.

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 condi-

tioner using the new refrigerant during installation

work or servicing time.

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.

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.

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.

3-1. Safety During Installation/Servicing

Improper repair’s may result in water leakage,

electric shock and fire, etc.

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 materi-

als exclusive for R410A, it is necessary to carry out

installation/servicing safely while taking the following

precautions into consideration.

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 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) 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.

(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).

(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 condi-

tioner using R410A as refrigerant. To prevent

mischarging, the diameter of the service port

differs from that of R22.

Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube

may become blocked with contaminants.

As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pres-

sure higher than when using R22, it is necessary

to choose adequate materials.

(3) If a refrigeration gas leakage occurs during

installation/servicing, be sure to ventilate fully.

Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A

are as shown in Table 3-2-1. Never use copper

pipes thinner than 0.8 mm even when it is

available on the market.

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 refrig-

eration cycle. Otherwise, pressure in the refrig-

eration 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.

For copper pipes, flare joints or socket joints are

used. Prior to use, be sure to remove all contami-

nants.

Socket joints are such that they are brazed

for connections, and used mainly for thick

pipings whose diameter is larger than 20 mm.

a) Flare Joints

Thicknesses of socket joints are as shown in

Table 3-2-2.

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.

(1) Flare Processing Procedures and Precautions

a) Cutting the Pipe

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 other

than lubricating oils used in the installed air condi-

tioner 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.

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.

c) Insertion of Flare Nut

– 13 –

d) Flare Processing

Make certain that a clamp bar and copper

pipe have been cleaned.

ØD

By means of the clamp bar, perform the flare

processing correctly.

Use either a flare tool for R410A or conven-

tional 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

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 3-2-7

shows reference values.

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.

NOTE :

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 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 Tools

The service port diameter of packed valve of the outdoor unit in the air conditioner using R410A is changed to

prevent mixing of other refrigerant. To reinforce the pressure-resisting strength, flare processing dimensions and

opposite side dimension of flare nut (For Ø12.7 copper pipe) of the refrigerant piping are lengthened.

The used refrigerating oil is changed, and mixing of oil may cause a trouble such as generation of sludge,

clogging of capillary, etc. Accordingly, the tools to be used are classified into the following three types.

(1) Tools exclusive for R410A (Those which cannot be used for conventional refrigerant (R22))

(2) Tools exclusive for R410A, but can be also used for conventional refrigerant (R22)

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

The table below shows the tools exclusive for R410A and their interchangeability.

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.

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 to packed valve service

port at the outdoor unit’s gas side.

Keep the status as it is for 1 to 2 minutes, and ensure

that the compound gauge’s pointer does not return.

Connect the charge hose to the vacuum pump

adapter.

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.

Open fully both packed valves at liquid and gas

sides.

(For refrigerant charging, see the figure below.)

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.

(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.

3-5. Brazing of Pipes

(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.

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) 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.

3-5-2. Flux

(1) Reason why flux is necessary

(3) Low temperature brazing filler

• By removing the oxide film and any foreign

matter on the metal surface, it assists the flow

of 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.

• 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.

– 18 –

(2) Characteristics required for flux

3-5-3. Brazing

• Activated temperature of flux coincides with

the brazing temperature.

As brazing work requires sophisticated techniques,

experiences based upon a theoretical knowledge, it

must be performed by a person qualified.

• Due to a wide effective temperature range, flux

is hard to carbonize.

In order to prevent the oxide film from occurring in

the pipe interior during brazing, it is effective to

proceed with brazing while letting dry Nitrogen gas

(N2) flow.

• 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 harm-

less to the human body.

Never use gas other than Nitrogen gas.

(1) Brazing method to prevent oxidation

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.

1) Attach a reducing valve and a flow-meter to

the Nitrogen gas cylinder.

2) Use a copper pipe to direct the piping mate-

rial, and attach a flow-meter to the cylinder.

(3) Types of flux

• Noncorrosive flux

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.

Generally, it is a compound of borax and boric

acid.

It is effective in case where the brazing

temperature is higher than 800°C.

4) When the Nitrogen gas is flowing, be sure to

keep the piping end open.

• Activated flux

Most of fluxes generally used for silver brazing

are this type.

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.

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.

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.

(2) When chlorine contained in the flux remains

within the pipe, the lubricating oil deterio-

contain chlorine.

• Detection of inverter input current and current

release operation

9-1. Outline of Air Conditioner Control

This air conditioner is a capacity-variable type air

conditioner, which uses DC motor for the indoor fan

motor and the outdoor fan motor. And the capacity-

proportional control compressor which can change

the motor speed in the range from 9 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.

• 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

The indoor unit controller drives the indoor fan motor

based upon command sent from the remote control-

ler, 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 motor valve. (P.M.V)

Besides, detecting revolution position of the com-

pressor 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.

• Detection of outdoor temperature and opera-

tion revolution control

• Defrost control in heating operation (Temp.

measurement by outdoor heat exchanger and

control for four-way valve and outdoor fan)

(3) Contents of operation command signal (Serial

signal) from indoor unit controller to outdoor unit

controller

The following three types of signals are sent

from the indoor unit controller.

• Operation mode set on the remote control

• Compressor revolution command signal defined

by indoor temperature and set temperature

(Correction along with variation of room

temperature and correction of indoor heat

exchanger temperature are added.)

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.

• Temperature of indoor heat exchanger

• For these signals ([Operation mode] and

[Compressor revolution] indoor heat exchanger

temperature), the outdoor unit controller

monitors the input current to the inverter, and

performs the followed operation within the

range that current does not exceed the allow-

able value.

(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

(4) Contents of operation command signal (Serial

signal) from outdoor unit controller to indoor unit

controller

The following signals are sent from the outdoor

unit controller.

• The current operation mode

• The current compressor revolution

• Outdoor temperature

• Existence of protective circuit operation

For transferring of these signals, the indoor

unit controller monitors the contents of signals,

and judges existence of trouble occurrence.

Contents of judgment are described below.

• Whether distinction of the current operation

status meets to the operation command signal

(2) Role of outdoor unit controller

• Whether protective circuit operates

Receiving the operation command signal (Serial

signal) from the indoor unit controller, the out-

door unit performs its role.

When no signal is received from the outdoor

unit controller, it is assumed as a trouble.

• Compressor operation control

• Operation control of outdoor

fan motor

• P.M.V. control

• 4-way valve control

Maximum indoor piping length:

A or B = 20 m or less

Maximum piping height difference:

A or B = 10 m or less

Maximum piping / height difference

•

If the outdoor unit is to be mounted on a wall, make sure the platform supporting it is sturdy enough.

The platform should be designed and manufactured to maintain its strength over a long period of time, and sufficient consideration

should be given to ensuring that the outdoor unit will not fall.

•

When the outdoor unit is to be mounted high on a wall, take particular care to ensure that parts do not fall, and that the installer is

protected.

When doing installation work at ground level, it is usual to make wiring and pipe connections to the indoor units, first, and then to

make connections to the outdoor unit.

However, if outdoor work is difficult it is possible, instead, to make changes to the procedure.

For example, by making adjustments to the wiring and piping lengths on the inside (rather than the outside).

• A place where the drain water does not cause any problems.

•

The outdoor unit should not be installed with one indoor unit only. Be sure the (outdoor) unit is installed with at least two indoor

units.

Precautions for Adding Refrigerant

•

Use a scale having a precision with at least 10 g per index line when adding the refrigerant. Do not use a bathroom scale or similar

instrument.

•

Use liquid refrigerant when refilling the refrigerant. Since the refrigerant is in liquid form, it can fill quickly. Therefore, perform the

filling operation carefully and insert the refrigerant gradually.

– 70 –

CAUTION

1. Install the outdoor unit without anything blocking the discharging air.

2. When the outdoor unit is installed in a place always exposed to strong winds like on the coast or on a high story of a

building, secure the normal fan operation using a duct or a wind shield.

3. Especially in windy areas, install the unit to prevent the admission of wind.

4. Installation in the following places may result in trouble. Do not install the unit in such places.

•

A place full of machine oil.

A saline-place such as the coast.

A place full of sulfide gas.

•

• A place where high-frequency waves are likely to be generated, such

as from audio equipment, welders, and medical equipment.

Strong

wind

Draining the water

•

Holes are provided on the base plate of the outdoor unit to ensure that the

defrost water produced during heating operations is drained off efficiently. If a

centralized drain is required when installing the unit on a balcony or wall, follow

the steps below to drain off the water.

Water-proof rubber

caps (supplied with the

outdoor unit)

1. Proceed with water-proofing by installing the water-proof rubber caps in the

2 elongated holes on the base plate of the outdoor unit.

[How to install the water-proof rubber caps]

1) Place four fingers into each cap, and insert the caps into the water drain

holes by pushing them into place from the underside of the base plate.

2) Press down on the outer circumferences of the caps to ensure that they

have been inserted tightly.

Base plate

Drain nipple

(Water leaks may result if the caps have not been inserted properly, if their

outer circumferences lift up or the caps catch on or wedge against

something.)

2. Install the drain nipple ^cand a commercially available drain hose (with 16 mm

Base plate

inside diameter), and drain off the water.

Drain nipple

(For the position where the drain nipple is installed, refer to the installation

diagram of the indoor and outdoor units.)

Commercially available

drain hose

•

Check that the outdoor unit is horizontal, and route the drain hose at a

downward sloped angle while ensuring that it is connected tautly.

Do not use ordinary garden hose, which can flatten and

prevent water from draining.

After the piping has been connected to the indoor unit, perform the air purge.

AIR PURGE

Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and in the indoor unit using a vacuum pump. Do not use the refrigerant in the outdoor unit.

For details, see the vacuum pump manual.

Use a vacuum pump

Compound pressure gauge

Pressure gauge

Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow prevention function so that

oil inside the pump does not flow back into the air conditioner pipes when the

pump stops. (If oil inside the vacuum pump enters into the air conditioner

circuit which uses R410A, trouble with the refrigeration system may develop.)

• Incorrect wiring connection may cause electrical parts to burn out.

• Be sure to comply with local regulations/codes when running the wire from outdoor unit to indoor unit. (Size of wire and wiring

method etc.)

• Every wire must be securely connected.

• This installation fuse (25A D type

) must be used for the power supply line.

• If incorrect or incomplete wiring is carried out, fire or smoke may result.

• Prepare the power supply for the exclusive use of the air conditioner.

• This product can be connected to the main breaker.

Connection to fixed wiring: A switch which disconnects all poles and has a contact separation of at least 3 mm must be

incorporated in the fixed wiring when connecting to a main breaker circuit.

– 74 –

10-6. Grounding

This air conditioner must be grounded without fail.

Grounding is necessary not only to safeguard against the possibility of receiving an electric shock but also to absorb both the static,

which is generated by high frequencies and held in the surface of the outdoor unit, and noise since the air conditioner incorporates a

frequency conversion device (called an inverter) in the outdoor unit. If the air conditioner is not grounded, users may receive an

electric shock if they touch the surface of the outdoor unit and that unit is charged with static.

10-7. 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 of that manufactured exclusively for HFC refrigerant.

• Pressure of R410A becomes approx. 1.6 times that of R22. If

installation work has not completely finished, gas leaks may occur in

cases such as when pressure rises during operation.

• Check the flare nut connections, valve stem cap connections and

service port cap connections for gas leaks with a leak detector or

soap water.

CAUTION

• Use a circuit breaker of a type that is not tripped by shock waves.

• Incorrect/incomplete wiring will cause electrical fires or smoke.

• Prepare the power source for exclusive use with the air conditioner.

• Proceed as follows when connecting the product to the mains power.

• 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 incorporated

into the fixed wiring.

Utilize only approved short circuit breakers and switches.

* (A breaker having sensitivity of approximately 0.1 second or less and capacity of approximately 30 mA is usually used.)

Miswiring (Mis-piping) Check

Make sure that the wiring and piping for each room have the same alphabetical code (A, B).

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 in cooling mode.

3. Start checks.

• Run the indoor unit in room A, and confirm cool air blows out.

• Confirm the indoor unit in room B is not running. (Also check at this time that refrigerant, which can be heard, is not flowing.)

• Stop operation of the indoor unit in room A and execute the same checks on the indoor unit in room B.

cuits. The sensor leads and other wires are covered with insulated

tubes for protection. Nevertheless, care must be taken to ensure

that these wires are not pinched.

Sensor leads

CAUTION!!

Take sufficient care to avoid directly touching any of the circuit

parts without first turning off the power.

CAUTION!!

At times such as when the circuit board is to be replaced, place the

circuit board assembly in a vertical position.

Laying the board flat on an electrically conductive object (such as the

top panel of the air conditioner's outdoor unit) while a charge is still

retained by the electrolytic capacitors of the inverter's main circuit may

cause short-circuiting between the electrolytic capacitors and second-

ary circuit components and result in damage to the components.

Do NOT lay the circuit

board assembly flat.

– 78 –

Precautions when inspecting the control section of the outdoor unit

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 DC280 to 380V) remains and discharging takes a lot of time. After

turning off the power 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) by opening four mounting claws.

(2) As shown below, connect the discharge resistance (approx. 100Ω40W) or plug of the soldering iron to voltage

between + – terminals of the C14 (“CAUTION HIGH VOLTAGE” is indicated.) electrolytic capacitor (760µF/

400V) on P.C. board, and then perform discharging.

11-1-3. Operation Which is not a Trouble (Program Operation)

For controlling the air conditioner, the program operations are built in the microcomputer as described in the

following table. If a claim is made for running operation, check whether or not it meets to the contents in the

following table. When it does, we inform you that it is not trouble of equipment, but it is indispensable for control-

ling and maintaining of air conditioner.

is operated once, flashing stops. (Flashes also in power

failure)

Compressor may not operate even if the

room temperature is within range of com-

pressor-ON.

The compressor does not operate while compressor

restart delay timer (3-minutes timer) operates.

The same phenomenon is found after power source has

been turned on because 3-minutes timer operates.

In Dry and ECO mode, FAN (air flow)

display does not change even though FAN

(air flow select) button is operated.

The air flow indication is fixed to [AUTO].

Increasing of compressor motor speed

stops approx. 30 seconds after operation

started, and then compressor motor speed

increases again approx. 30 seconds after.

For smooth operation of the compressor, the compressor

motor speed is restricted to Max. 41 rps for 2 minutes,

and Max.91 rps for 2 minutes to 3 minutes, respectively

after the operation has started.

The set value of the remote control should

be below the room temperature.

If the set value is above the room temperature, Cooling

operation is not performed. And check whether battery of

the remote control is consumed or not.

In AUTO mode, the operation mode is

changed.

After selecting Cool or Heat mode, select an operation

mode again if the compressor keeps stop status for 15

minutes.

In HEAT mode, the compressor motor

speed does not increase up to the maxi-

mum speed or decreases before the

temperature arrives at the set temperature.

The compressor motor speed may decrease by high-

temp. release control (Release protective operation by

temp.-up of the indoor heat exchanger) or current release

control.

Cool, Dry, or Heat operation cannot be

performed.

When the unit in other room operates previously in

different mode, Fan Only operation is performed because

of first-push priority control. (Cool operation and Dry

operation can be concurrently performed.)

(2) After servicing by the check code, turn off breaker of the power supply, and turn on breaker of the power

supply again so that memory in the microcomputer returns the initial status. However, the check codes are

not deleted even if the power supply is turned off because they are stored in the fixed memory.

(3) After servicing, push [CLR] button under check mode status and then send the check code “7F” to the indoor

unit.The error code stored in memory is cleared.

11-10. 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 controller check code “02 : Outdoor block, 1A : Outdoor fan drive system error”

2. Cause

The following causes are considered when the outdoor fan motor does not normally rotate.

1) Mechanical lock of the outdoor fan motor

2) Winding failure of the outdoor fan motor

3) Position-detect circuit failure inside of the outdoor fan motor

4) Motor drive circuit failure 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)

of the outdoor fan motor from the outdoor P.C. board.

Does the fan rotate without trouble

when rotating it with hands?

YES

CN300

If the resistance value between

1 (Red lead)

2 (White lead)

3 (Black lead)

– 2 (White lead)

– 3 (Black lead)

– 1 (Red lead)

of the connector

(CN300 : Motor winding)

is 17 to 25Ω, it is normal.

YES

Fan motor is normal.

Fan motor error

(Outdoor P.C. board error)

NOTE :

However, GND circuit error inside of the motor may be accepted in some cases when the above check is per-

formed.

When the fan motor does not become normal even if P.C. board is replaced, replace the outdoor fan motor.

12. HOW TO REPLACE THE MAIN PARTS

WARNING

• Since high voltages pass through the electrical parts, turn off the power without fail before proceeding with the

repairs.

Electric shocks may occur if the power plug is not disconnected.

• After the repairs have been completed (after the front panel and cabinet have been installed), perform a test

run, and check for smoking, unusual sounds and other abnormalities.

If this check is omitted, a fire and/or electric shocks may occur.

Before proceeding with the test run, install the front panel and cabinet.

• Ensure that the following steps are taken when doing repairs on the refrigerating cycle.

(1) Do not allow any naked flames in the surrounding area. If a gas stove or other appliance is being used,

extinguish the flames before proceeding. If the flames are not extinguished, they may ignite any oil mixed

with the refrigerant gas.

(2) Do not use welding equipment in an airtight room. Carbon monoxide poisoning may result if the room is not

properly ventilated.

(3) Do not bring welding equipment near flammable objects.

Flames from the equipment may cause the flammable objects to catch fire.

• If keeping the power on is absolutely unavoidable while doing a job such as inspecting the circuitry,

wear rubber gloves to avoid contact with the live parts.

Electric shocks may be received if the live parts are touched.

High-voltage circuits are contained inside this unit. Proceed very carefully when conducting checks since

directly touching the parts on the control circuit board may result in electric shocks.

NOTE:

Separate the cord heater power from the air conditioner power, and connect it to its exclusive breaker.

By doing so, the power consumption can be decreased because the breaker can be turned off if there is no

possibility of freezing of the base plate in cooling operation, etc.

When the cord heater power is connected to the inverter P.C. board assembly or others without connected to the

exclusive breaker, the control P.C. board of the inverter assembly may cause a failure.

When the cord heater has been mounted on a base plate, do not mount the water-proof cap and drain nipple which
