1. Safety precautions
1.3. Before electric work
A\ Caution:
¢ Be sure to install circuit breakers. If not installed, electric shock may result.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that the current leakage breaker is one compatibie with higher
rue oe
Always use a current leakage breaker that is compatible with higher har-
monics as this unit is equipped with an inverter.
The use of an inadequate breaker can cause the incorrect operation of in-
am
¢ For the power lines, use standard cables of sufficient capacity. Otherwise, a
short circuit, overheating, or fire may result.
« When installing the power lines, do not apply tension to the cables. If the
connections are loosened, the cables can snap or break and overheating or
fire may result.
¢ Be sure to ground the unit. Do not connect the ground wire to gas or water
pipes, lighting rods, or telephone grounding lines. If the unit is not properly
grounded, electric shock may result.
¢ Use circuit breakers (ground fault interrupter, isolating switch (+B fuse),
and molded case circuit breaker) with the specified capacity. If the circuit
breaker capacity is larger than the specified capacity, breakdown or fire
may result.
1.4. Before starting the test run
Z\ Caution:
« Turn on the main power switch more than 12 hours before starting opera-
tion.
Starting operation just after turning on the power switch can severely dam-
age the internal parts. Keep the main power switch turned on during the
operation season.
¢ Before starting operation, check that all panels, guards and other protective
parts are correctly installed. Rotating, hot, or high voitage parts can cause
injuries.
« Do not touch any switch with wet hands. Electric shock may result.
¢ Do not touch the refrigerant pipes with bare hands during operation. The
refrigerant pipes are hot or cold depending on the condition of the flowing
refrigerant. If you touch the pipes, burns or frostbite may result.
« After stopping operation, be sure to wait at least five minutes before turn-
ing off the main power switch. Otherwise, water leakage or breakdown may
result.
1.5. Using R410A refrigerant air conditioners
A\ Caution
«Use C1220 copper phosphorus, for copper and copper alloy seamless
pipes, to connect the refrigerant pipes. Make sure the insides of the pipes
are clean and do not contain any harmful contaminants such as sulfuric
compounds, oxidants, debris, or dust. Use pipes with the specified thick-
ness. (Refer to page 6) Note the following if reusing existing pipes that car-
ried R22 refrigerant.
- Replace the existing flare nuts and flare the flared sections again.
Do not use thin pipes. (Refer to page 6)
Store the pipes to be used during installation indoors and keep both ends
of the pipes sealed until just before brazing. (Leave elbow joints, etc. in
their packaging.) If dust, debris, or moisture enters the refrigerant lines, oil
deterioration or compressor breakdown may result.
Use ester oil, ether oil, alkylbenzene oil (small amount) as the refrigeration
oil applied to the flared sections. If mineral oil is mixed in the refrigeration
oil, oil deterioration may resuit.
2. Installation diagram & parts
« Do not use refrigerant other than R410A refrigerant. If another refrigerant is
used, the chlorine will cause the oil to deteriorate.
« Use the following tools specifically designed for use with R410A refrigerant.
The following tools are necessary to use R410A refrigerant. Contact your
nearest dealer for any questions.
Tools R410A
Flare tool manifold
hose Size
Gas leak detector Vacuum
T wrench Electronic t scale
« Be sure to use the correct tools. If dust, debris, or moisture enters the re-
frigerant lines, refrigeration oil deterioration may result.
« Do not use a charging cylinder. If a charging cylinder is used, the composi-
tion of the refrigerant will change and the efficiency will be lowered.
Branch box
5-branches type
Outdoor unit
2.1. Before installation (Fig. 2-1)
This installation manual is only for the outdoor unit installation. In install-
ing the indoor units and branch box, refer to the installation manual at-
tached to each unit.
Any structural alterations necessary for the installation must comply with the local
building code requirements.
This diagram is intended to show the configuration of accessories.
For actual installation, the outdoor unit is to be turned 180°.
Units should be installed by licensed contractor according to local code require-
ment.
Note:
The dimensions given along the arrows above are required to guarantee the
air conditioner's performance. Install the unit in as wide a piace as possible
for later service or repairs.
