1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

This installation manual describes how to install the outdoor unit only. To install the indoor

unit, refer to the installation manual included with the indoor unit.

IMPORTANT!

Please Read Before Starting

This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operating standards.

As the installer or service person, it is an important part of your job to install or service the

system so it operates safely and ef¿ ciently.

For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you must:

• Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.

• Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown.

• Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.

• Pay close attention to all warning, and caution notices given in this manual.

Safety / alert

If Necessary, Get Help

These instructions are all you need for most installation sites and maintenance conditions.

If you require help for a special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or your certi¿ ed

dealer for additional instructions.

In Case of Improper Installation

The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for improper installation or maintenance

service, including failure to follow the instructions in this document.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

When Wiring

ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY

A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS

SYSTEM.

• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed or reconnected

and checked.

• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully refer to the wiring

diagram and these instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inadequate

grounding can cause accidental injury or death.

• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.

• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and

a possible ¿ re hazard.

When Transporting

Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to

help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin

aluminum ¿ ns on the air conditioner can cut your ¿ ngers.

When Installing...

...In a Ceiling or Wall

Make sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold the unit’s weight. It may be necessary

to construct a strong wood or metal frame to provide added support.

...In a Room

Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent “sweating” that can cause

dripping and water damage to walls and À oors.

...In Moist or Uneven Locations

Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a solid, level foundation for the

outdoor unit. This prevents water damage and abnormal vibration.

...In an Area with High Winds

Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame. Provide a suitable air

bafÀ e.

...In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)

Install the outdoor unit on a raised support that is higher than drifting snow. Provide snow

vents.

When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing

• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.

• Use the À are method for connecting tubing.

• Apply refrigeration compressor oil (or equivalent) used for the outdoor unit to the matching

surfaces of the À are and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten the nut with a

torque wrench for a leak-free connection.

• Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.

NOTE:

Depending on the system type, liquid and gas lines may be either narrow or wide.

Therefore, to avoid confusion the refrigerant tubing for your particular model is speci¿ ed

as either “small” or “large” rather than as “liquid” or “gas”.

When Servicing

•Turn the power OFF at the main circuit breaker panel before opening the unit to check or

repair electrical parts and wiring.

• Keep your ¿ ngers and clothing away from any moving parts.

• Clean up the site after you ¿ nish, remembering to check that no metal scraps or bits of

wiring have been left inside the unit being serviced.

• After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the operating manual.

• Be sure to read this Manual thoroughly before installation.

• The warnings and precautions indicated in this Manual contain important information

pertaining to your safety. Be sure to observe them.

• Hand this Manual, together with the Operating Manual, to the customer. Request the

customer to keep them on hand for future use, such as for relocating or repairing the

unit.

• After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the operating

manual.

WARNING

Never touch electrical components immediately after the power supply has been

turned off. Electrical shock may occur. After turning off the power, always wait 5 min-

utes or more before touching electrical components.

During installation, make sure that the refrigerant pipe is attached ¿ rmly before you

run the compressor. Do not operate the compressor under the condition of refrigerant

piping not attached properly with 2-way or 3-way valve open. This may cause abnor-

mal pressure in the refrigeration cycle that leads to breakage and even injury.

Do not remove the connection pipe while the compressor is in operation with 2-way or

3-way valve open. This may cause abnormal pressure in the refrigeration cycle that

leads to breakage and even injury.

When installing and relocating the air conditioner, do not mix gases other than the

speci¿ ed refrigerant (R410A) to enter the refrigerant cycle. If air or other gas enters

the refrigerant cycle, the pressure inside the cycle will rise to an abnormally high value

and cause breakage, injury, etc.

When installing this system in high humidity locations, install using ground fault equip-

ment breakers (often referred to in other countries as an ELCB [earth leakage current

breaker]) to reduce the risk of leaking current which may result in electric shock or

potential ¿ re.

CAUTION

For the air conditioner to operate satisfactorily, install it as outlined in this installation

manual.

Connect the indoor unit and outdoor unit with the air conditioner piping and cables

available standards parts. This installation manual describes the correct connections

using the installation set available from our standard parts.

Installation work must be performed in accordance with national wiring standards by

authorized personnel only.

Do not use an extension cable.

Do not turn on the power until all installation work is complete.

Do not purge the air with refrigerants but use a vacuum pump to vacuum the installa-

tion.

There is not extra refrigerant in the outdoor unit for air purging.

Use a vacuum pump for R410A exclusively.

Using the same vacuum pump for different refrigerants may damage the vacuum

pump or the unit.

Use a clean gauge manifold and charging hose for R410A exclusively.

If refrigerant leaks while work is being carried out, ventilate the area. If the refrigerant

comes in contact with a À ame, it produces a toxic gas.

After a long period of disuse in an environment 32 °F (0 °C) or lower, supply power to

the unit at least 12 hours before re-starting the unit.

• Be careful not to scratch the air conditioner when handling it.

• This product is manufactured to metric units and tolerances. United States customary

units are provided for reference only. In cases where exact dimensions and tolerances

are required, always refer to metric units.

2. ABOUT THE PRODUCT

2. 1. Precautions for using R410A refrigerant

WARNING

The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant mod-

els.

However, pay careful attention to the following points:

Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant

(R22) models, some of the piping and installation and service tools are special. (See

the table below.)

Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant (R22) model with a new refrig-

erant R410A model, always replace the conventional piping and À are nuts with the

R410A piping and À are nuts.

Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter

to prevent erroneous charging with conventional refrigerant (R22) and for safety.

Therefore, check beforehand. [The charging port thread diameter for R410A is

1/2-20 UNF.]

Be careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with

refrigerant models. Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the openings by pinch-

ing, taping, etc.

When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition

of the gas and liquid phases, and always charge from the liquid phase side whose

composition is stable.

2. 2. Special tools for R410A refrigerant

Tool name

Contents of change

Gauge manifold

Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a conventional

gauge. To prevent erroneous mixing of other refrigerants, the

diameter of each port has been changed.

It is recommended the gauge with seals 30 in. Hg to 769 psi

(-0.1 to 5.3 MPa) for high pressure. 30 in. Hg to 551 psi (-0.1 to

3.8 MPa) for low pressure.

Charge hose

To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base

size were changed.

Vacuum pump

A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a

vacuum pump adapter.

Gas leakage

detector

Special gas leakage detector for HFC refrigerant R410A.

Copper pipes

It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes and it is desirable that the amount of re-

sidual 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 conventional

refrigerant, it is necessary to choose adequate materials.

Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in the table. Never use cop-

per pipes thinner than that in the table even when it is available on the market.

Thicknesses of Annealed Copper Pipes (R410A)

Pipe outside diameter [in. (mm)] Thickness [in. (mm)]

1/4 (6.35) 0.032 (0.80)

3/8 (9.52) 0.032 (0.80)

1/2 (12.70) 0.032 (0.80)

5/8 (15.88) 0.039 (1.00)

3/4 (19.05) 0.047 (1.20)

2. 3. Accessories

WARNING

For installation purposes, be sure to use the parts supplied by the manufacturer or

other prescribed parts. The use of non-prescribed parts can cause serious accidents

such as the unit falling, water leakage, electric shock, or ¿ re.

Do not throw away the connecting parts until the installation has been complete.

3. INSTALLATION WORK

Please obtain the approval of the customer when selecting the location of installation and

installing the unit.

3. 1. Selecting an installation location

WARNING

Securely install the outdoor unit at a location that can withstand the weight of the unit.

Otherwise, the outdoor unit may fall and cause injury.

Be sure to install the outdoor unit as prescribed, so that it can withstand earthquakes

and typhoons or other strong winds. Improper installation can cause the unit to topple

or fall, or other accidents.

Do not install the outdoor unit near the edge of a balcony. Otherwise, children may

climb onto the outdoor unit and fall off of the balcony.

CAUTION

Do not install the outdoor unit in the following areas:

• Area with high salt content, such as at the seaside. It will deteriorate metal parts,

causing the parts to fail or the unit to leak water.

• Area ¿ lled with mineral oil or containing a large amount of splashed oil or steam,

such as a kitchen. It will deteriorate plastic parts, causing the parts to fail or the

unit to leak water.

• Area that generates substances that adversely affect the equipment, such as

sulfuric gas, chlorine gas, acid, or alkali. It will cause the copper pipes and brazed

joints to corrode, which can cause refrigerant leakage.

• Area containing equipment that generates electromagnetic interference. It will

cause the control system to malfunction, preventing the unit from operating nor-

mally.

• Area that can cause combustible gas to leak, contains suspended carbon ¿ bers or

À ammable dust, or volatile inframmables such as paint thinner or gasoline. If gas

leaks and settles around the unit, it can cause a ¿ re.

• Area that has heat sources, vapors, or the risk of the leakage of À ammable gas in

the vicinity.

• Area where small animals may live. It may cause failure, smoke or ¿ re if small

animals enter and touch internal electrical parts.

• Area where animals may urinate on the unit or ammonia may be generated.

Please install the outdoor unit without slant.

Install the outdoor unit in a well-ventilated location away from rain or direct sunlight.

If the outdoor unit must be installed in an area within easy reach of the general public,

install as necessary a protective fence or the like to prevent their access.

Install the outdoor unit in a location that would not inconvenience your neighbors, as

they could be affected by the airÀ ow coming out from the outlet, noise, or vibration. If it

must be installed in proximity to your neighbors, be sure to obtain their approval.

If the outdoor unit is installed in a cold region that is affected by snow accumulation,

snow fall, or freezing, take appropriate measures to protect it from those elements. To

ensure a stable operation, install inlet and outlet ducts.

Install the outdoor unit in a location that is away from exhaust or the vent ports that

discharge vapor, soot, dust, or debris.

Install the indoor unit, outdoor unit, power supply cable, connection cable, and remote

control cable at least 40 in. (1 m) away from a television or radio receivers. The pur-

pose of this is to prevent TV reception interference or radio noise. (Even if they are

installed more than 40 in. (1 m) apart, you could still receive noise under some signal

conditions.)

4. PIPE INSTALLATION - 1

4. 1. Pipe connection

CAUTION

Do not use mineral oil on a À ared part. Prevent mineral oil from getting into the system

as this would reduce the lifetime of the units.

While welding the pipes, be sure to blow dry nitrogen gas through them.

The maximum lengths of this product are shown in the table. If the units are further

apart than this, correct operation cannot be guaranteed.

4. 1. 1. Flaring

• Use special pipe cutter and À are tool exclusive for R410A.

(1) Cut the connection pipe to the necessary length with a pipe cutter.

(2) Hold the pipe downward so that the cuttings will not enter the pipe and remove

any burrs.

(3) Insert the À are nut (always use the À are nut attached to the indoor and outdoor

units respectively) onto the pipe and perform the À are processing with a À are tool.

Leakage of refrigerant may result if other À are nuts are used.

(4) Protect the pipes by pinching them or with tape to prevent dust, dirt, or water from

entering the pipes.

Check if [L] is À ared uniformly

4. 1. 2. Bending pipes

CAUTION

To prevent breaking of the pipe, avoid sharp bends. Bend the pipe with a radius of

curvature of 4 in. (100 mm) or more.

If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it will break.

• If pipes are shaped by hand, be careful not to collapse them.

• Do not bend the pipes at an angle of more than 90°.

• When pipes are repeatedly bent or stretched, the material will harden, making it

dif¿ cult to bend or stretch them any more.

• Do not bend or stretch the pipes more than 3 times.

4. 1. 3. Pipe connection

CAUTION

Be sure to install the pipe against the port on the indoor unit and the outdoor unit

correctly. If the centering is improper, the flare nut cannot be tightened smoothly.

If the À are nut is forced to turn, the threads will be damaged.

Do not remove the À are nut from the outdoor unit pipe until immediately before con-

necting the connection pipe.

After installing the piping, make sure that the connection pipes do not touch the com-

pressor or outer panel. If the pipes touch the compressor or outer panel, they will

vibrate and produce noise.

(1) Detach the caps and plugs from the pipes.

(2) Center the pipe against the port on the outdoor unit, and then turn the À are nut

by hand.

To prevent gas leakage, coat the À are

surface with alkylbenzene oil (HAB).

Do not use mineral oil.

5. ELECTRICAL WIRING

WARNING

Wiring connections must be performed by a quali¿ ed person in accordance with speci-

¿ cations.

The rated supply of this product is 60Hz, 208/230V. Use a voltage within the range of

187-253V.

Before connecting the wires, make sure the power supply is OFF.

When installing this system in high humidity locations, install using ground fault equip-

ment breakers (often referred to in other countries as an ELCB [earth leakage current

breaker]) to reduce the risk of leaking current which may result in electric shock or

potential ¿ re.

Be sure to install a breaker of the speci¿ ed capacity.

When selecting breaker, please comply with the laws and the regulations of each

country.

One breaker must be installed on the power supply of the outdoor unit.

Wrong selection and setup of the breaker will cause electric shock or ¿ re.

Do not connect AC power supply to the transmission line terminal board.

Improper wiring can damage the entire system.

Connect the connector cord securely to the terminal.

Faulty installation can cause a ¿ re.

Make sure to secure the insulation portion of the connector cable with the cord clamp.

A damaged insulation can cause a short circuit.

Never install a power factor improvement condenser. Instead of improving the power

factor, the condenser may overheat.

Before servicing the unit, turn the power supply switch OFF. Then, do not touch elec-

tric parts for 10 minutes due to the risk of electric shock.

Make sure to perform grounding work. Improper grounding work can cause electric

shocks.

CAUTION

The primary power supply capacity is for the air conditioner itself, and does not include

the concurrent use of other devices.

Do not use crossover power supply wiring for the outdoor unit.

If the electrical power is inadequate, contact your electric power company.

Install a breaker in a location that is not exposed to high temperatures.

If the temperature surrounding the breaker is too high, the amperage at which the

breaker cuts out may decrease.

We suggest installing GFEB [Ground Fault Equipment Breaker] or follow local electri-

cal code.

This system uses an inverter, which means that when used with a ground fault breaker

you must use breakers that can handle harmonics such as a GFEB (30 mA or greater)

in order to prevent malfunctioning of ground fault device.

When the electrical switchboard is installed outdoors, place it under lock and key so

that it is not easily accessible.

Do not fasten the power supply cable and connection cable together.

Always keep to the maximum length of the connection cable. Exceeding the maximum

length may lead to erroneous operation.

The static electricity that is charged to the human body can damage the control PC

Board when handling the control PC Board for address setting, etc.

Please keep caution to the following points.

Provide the grounding of Indoor unit, Outdoor unit and Option equipment.

Cut off the power supply (breaker).

Touch the metal section (such as the unpainted control box section) of the indoor or

outdoor unit for more than 10 seconds. Discharge the static electricity in your body.

Never touch the component terminal or pattern on the PC Board.

6. 1. Vacuum process

CAUTION

Always use a vacuum pump to purge the air.

Refrigerant for purging the air is not charged in the outdoor unit at the factory.

Refrigerant must not be discharged into atmosphere.

Use a vacuum pump, gauge manifold and charge hose for R410A exclusively. Using

the same vacuum for different refrigerants may damage the vacuum pump or the unit.

After connecting the piping, check the joints for gas leakage with gas leak detector or

soapy water.

6. 1. 1. Checking gas leakage and purging air

Gas leak checks are performed using either vacuum or nitrogen gas, so select the

proper one depending on the situation.

Checking gas leaks with vacuum:

(1) Check if the piping connections are secure.

(2) Remove the cap of 3-way valve, and connect the gauge manifold charge hoses to

the charging port of the 3-way valve.

(3) Open the valve of the gauge manifold fully.

(4) Operate the vacuum pump and start pump down.

(5) Check that the compound pressure gauge reads -0.1 MPa (500 microns), operate

the vacuum pump for 30 minutes or more in each valve.

(6) At the end of pump down, close the valve of the gauge manifold fully and stop the

vacuum pump.

(It checks that leave as it is for about 10 minutes, and a needle does not return.)

(7) Disconnect the charge hose from the 3-way valve charging port.

(8) Remove the blank caps, and fully open the spindles of the 2-way and 3-way

valves with a hexagon wrench.

[torque: 4.4 to 5.2 lbf·ft. (6 to 7 N·m)].

(9) Tighten the blank caps and charging port cap of the 2-way valve and 3-way valve

to the speci¿ ed torque.

Checking gas leaks with nitrogen gas:

(1) Check if the piping connections are secure.

(2) Remove the cap of 3-way valve, and connect the gauge manifold charge hoses to

the charging port of the 3-way valve.

(3) Pressurize with nitrogen gas using the 3-way valve charging port.

(4) Do not pressurize up to the speci¿ ed pressure all at once but do so gradually.

Increase the pressure up to 73 psi (0.5 MPa), , let it sit for about 5 minutes and

then check for any decrease in pressure.

Increase the pressure up to 218 psi (1.5 MPa),, let it sit for about 5 minutes

and then check for any decrease in pressure.

Increase the pressure up to the speci¿ ed pressure (the pressure designed for

the product) and then make a note of it.

(5) Let it sit at the speci¿ ed pressure and if there is no decrease in pressure then it is

satisfactory. If a pressure decrease is con¿ rmed, there is a leak, so it is necessary

to specify the leak location and make minor adjustments.

(6) Discharge the nitrogen gas and starting removing the gas with a vacuum pump.

(7) Open the valve of the gauge manifold fully.

(8) Operate the vacuum pump and start pump down.

(9) Check that the compound pressure gauge reads -0.1 MPa (500 microns), operate

the vacuum pump for 30 minutes or more in each valve.

(10) At the end of pump down, close the valve of the gauge manifold fully and stop the

vacuum pump.

(11) Disconnect the charge hose from the 3-way valve charging port.

CAUTION

When moving and installing the air conditioner, do not mix gas other than the speci¿ ed

refrigerant (R410A) inside the refrigerant cycle.

When charging the refrigerant R410A, always use an electronic balance for refrigerant

charging (to measure the refrigerant by weight).

When charging the refrigerant, take into account the

slight change in the composition of the gas and liquid

phases, and always charge from the liquid phase side

whose composition is stable.

9. 2. Con¿ rming the operation of indoor unit

Run the unit in a normal way, and con¿ rm its operation. (Please end the test run ¿ rst

before con¿ rmation)

(1) Cold air (or warm air) must be discharged from the indoor unit.

(2) The indoor unit operates normally when air direction or air volume adjustment button

is pressed.

10. PUMP DOWN

PUMP DOWN OPERATION

To avoid discharging refrigerant into the atmosphere at the time of relocation or disposal,

recover refrigerant by doing the cooling operation or forced cooling operation according

to the following procedure. (When the cooling operation cannot start in winter, and so on,

start the forced cooling operation.)

(1) Do the air purging of the charge hose by connecting the charging hose of gauge

manifold to the charging port of 3 way valve (At lease one unit of connected units) and

opening the low pressure valve slightly.

(2) Close the valve stem of 2 way valve (All connected units) completely.

(3) Start the cooling operation or following forced cooling operation. (All connected

units) When using the remote control unit Press the TEST RUN button after starting

the cooling operation by the remote control unit. The operation indicator lamp and

timer indicator lamp will begin to À ash simultaneously during test run. When using

the MANUAL AUTO button of the indoor unit (The remote control unit is lost, and so

on.) Keep on pressing the MANUAL AUTO button of the indoor unit for more than 10

seconds. (The forced cooling operation cannot start if the MANUAL AUTO button is not

kept on pressing for more than 10 seconds.)

(4) Close the valve stem of 3 way valve (All connected units) when the reading on the

compound pressure gauge becomes 7.3 to 0 psi (0.05 to 0 MPa).

(5) Stop the operation. (All connected units) Press the START/STOP button of the remote

control unit to stop the operation. Press the MANUAL AUTO button when stopping the

operation from indoor unit side. (It is not necessary to press on keeping for more than

10 seconds.)

CAUTION

During the pump-down operation, make sure that compressor is off before you remove

the refrigerant piping. Do not remove the connection pipe while the compressor is in

operation with 2 or 3 way valve open. This may cause abnormal pressure in the refrig-

eration cycle that breakage and injury.
