    WARNING: It indicates that incorrect use of this unit may cause severe injury or death.

    CAUTION : FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS CAUTION may result in equipment damage or improper operation and

    personal injury.

    CAUTION

    New refrigerant air conditioner installation

    THIS AIR CONDITIONER USES THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R410A), WHICH DOES NOT DESTROY THE

    OZONE LAYER.

    R410A refrigerant is affected by inpurities such as water and oils because the pressure of R410A refrigerant is approx.

    1.6 times of refrigerant R22.

    ALSO NEW OILS ARE USED WITH R410A, THUS ALWAYS USE NEW REFRIGERANT PIPING AND DO NOT

    ALLOW MOISTURE OR DUST TO ENTER THE SYSTEM.

    To avoid mixing refrigerant and refrigerant machine oil, the sizes of charging port on the main unit is different than

    those used on R22 machines and different tools will be required.

    EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD

    Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage or improper operation.

    Do not bury more than 36 in. (914 mm) of refrigerant pipe in the ground. If any section of pipe is buried, there must be a 6 in. (152 mm) vertical rise to the valve connections on the outdoor units. If more than the recommended length

    is buried, refrigerant may migrate to the cooter buried section during extended periods of system shutdown. This

    causes refrigerant slugging and could possibly damage the compressor at start-up.

    DANGER

    FOR USE BY QUALIFIED PERSONS ONLY.

    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.

    CONNECT THE CONNECTING CABLE CORRECTLY. IF THE CONNECTING CABLE IS CONNECTED WRONGLY,

    ELECTRIC PARTS MAY BE DAMAGED.

    CHECK THE EARTH WIRE THAT IT IS NOT BROKEN OR DISCONNECTED BEFORE INSTALLATION. DO NOT INSTALL NEAR CONCENTRATIONS OF COMBUSTIBLE GAS OR GAS VAPORS.

    FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION CAN RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

    TO PREVENT OVERHEATION THE INDOOR UNIT AND CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD, PLACE THE UNIT WELL AWAY

    (MORE THAN 2 M) FROM HEAT SOURCES SUCH AS RADIATORS, HEATERS, FURNACE, STOVES, ETC.

    WHEN MOVING THE AIR CONDITIONER FOR INSTALLING IT IN ANOTHER PLACE AGAIN, BE VERY CAREFUL NOT

    TO GET THE SPECIFIED REFRIGERANT (R410A) WITH ANY OTHER GASEOUS BODY INTO THE REFRIGERATION

    CYCLE. IF AIR OR ANY OTHER GAS IS MIXED IN THE REFRIGERANT, THE GAS PRESSURE IN THE REFRIGERATION

    CYCLE BECOMES ABNORMALLY HIGH AND IT RESULTINGLY CAUSES BURST OF THE PIPE AND INJURIES ON

    PERSONS.

    IN THE EVENT THAT THE REFRIGERANT LEAK, DURING INSTALLATION WORK, IMMEDIATELY ALLOW FRESH AIR

    INTO THE ROOM. IF THE REFRIGERANT GAS IS HEATED BY FIRE OR SOMETHING ELSE, IT CAUSE GENERATION

    OF POISONOUS GAS.

    WARNING

    ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

    Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.

    Before installing, modifying, or servicing system, main electrical disconnect switch must be in the OFF position. There may

    be more than 1 disconnect switch. Lock out and tag switch with a suitable warning label.

    Never modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or bypassing any of the safety interlock switches.

    Installation work must be purformed by qualified personnel only.

    Specified tools and pipe parts for model R410A are required, and installation work must be done in accordance with the

    manual. HFC type refrigerant R410A has 1.6 times more pressure than that of conventional refrigerant (R22). Use the

    specified pipe parts, and ensure correct installation, otherwise damage and/or injury may be caused. At the same time,

    water leakage, electrical shock, and fire may occur.

    Be sure to install the unit in a place which can sufficiently bear its weight. If the load bearing of the unit is not enough, or installation of the unit is improper, the unit may fall and result in injury.

    Electrical work must be performed by trained, qualified installers and service mechanics inaccordance with the code governing

    such installation work, internal wiring regulations, and the manual. A dedicated circuit and the rated voltage must be used.

    Insufficient power supply or improper installation may cause electrical shock or fire.

    Use a cabtyre cable to connect wires in the indoor/outdoor units. Midway connection is not allowed. Improper connection or

    fixing may cause a fire.

    Wiring between the indoor unit and outdoor units must be well shaped so that the cover can be firmly placed. Improper

    cover installation may cause increased heat, fire, or electrical shock at the terminal area.

    Be sure to use only approved accessories or the specified parts. Failure to do so may cause the unit to fall, water leakage,

    fire or electrical shock.

    After the installation work. ensure that there is no leakage of refrigerant gas. If the refrigerant gas leaks out of the pipe into

    the room and is heated by fire or something else from a fanheater, stove or gas range, it causes generation of poisonous gas.

    Make sure the equipment is properly grounded. Do not connect the ground wire to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning

    conductor, or telephone earth wire. Improper earth work may be the cause of electrical shock.

    Do not install the unit where flammable gas may leak. If there is any gas leakage or accumulation around the unit, it can

    cause a fire.

    Do not select a location for installation where there may be excessive water or humidity, such as a bathroom. Deterioration

    of insulation nay cause electrical shock or fire.

    Installation work must be performed following the instructions in this installation manual. Improper installation may cause

    water leakage, electrical shock or fire. Check the following items before operating the unit.

    - Be sure that the pipe connection is well placed and there are no leaks.

    - Check that the service valve is open. If the service valve is closed, it may cause overpressure and result in compressor

    damage. At the same time, if there is a leak in the connection part, it may cause air suction and overpressure, resulting

    in damage to the unit or injury.

    In a pump-down operation, be sure to stop the compressor unit before removing the refrigerant pipe. If removing the

    refrigerant pipe while the compressor is operating with the service valve opened, it may cause air suction and overpressure,

    resulting in damage to the unit or injury. Do not modity the power cable, connect the cable midway, or use a multiple outlet extension cable. Doing so may cause

    contact failure, insulation failure, or excess current, resulting in fire or electrical shock.

    If you detect any damage, do not install the unit. Contact your dealer immediately.

    3. 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 R410Ais 1.6 times higher than conventional refrigerant(R22). The refrigerating oil is also changed inaccordance with change of refrigerant, so be carefulthat water, dust, and existing refrigerant or refrigerat-ing oil are not entered in the refrigerant cycle of theair conditioner using the new refrigerant duringinstallation work or servicing time.

    The next section describes the precautions for airconditioner using the new refrigerant. Conforming tocontents of the next section together with thegeneral cautions included in this manual, performthe correct and safe work.

    3-1. Safety During Installation/ServicingAs R410As pressure is about 1.6 times higher thanthat of R22, improper installation/servicing maycause a serious trouble. By using tools and materi-als exclusive for R410A, it is necessary to carry outinstallation/servicing safely while taking the followingprecautions into consideration.

    1. Never use refrigerant other than R410A in an airconditioner which is designed to operate withR410A.

    If other refrigerant than R410A is mixed, pressure

    in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormallyhigh, and it may cause personal injury, etc. by arupture.

    2. Confirm the used refrigerant name, and use toolsand materials exclusive for the refrigerant R410A.

    The refrigerant name R410A is indicated on thevisible place of the outdoor unit of the air condi-tioner using R410A as refrigerant. To preventmischarging, the diameter of the service portdiffers from that of R22.

    3. If a refrigeration gas leakage occurs duringinstallation/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, donot allow air or moisture to remain in the refrig-eration cycle. Otherwise, pressure in the refrig-eration cycle may become abnormally high sothat a rupture or personal injury may be caused.

    5. After completion of installation work, check tomake sure that there is no refrigeration gasleakage.

    If the refrigerant gas leaks into the room, cominginto contact with fire in the fan-driven heater,space heater, etc., a poisonous gas may occur.

    6. When an air conditioning system charged with alarge volume of refrigerant is installed in a smallroom, it is necessary to exercise care so that,even when refrigerant leaks, its concentrationdoes not exceed the marginal level.

    If the refrigerant gas leakage occurs and itsconcentration exceeds the marginal level, anoxygen starvation accident may result.

    7. Be sure to carry out installation or removalaccording to the installation manual.

    Improper installation may cause refrigerationtrouble, water leakage, electric shock, fire, etc.

    8. Unauthorized modifications to the air conditionermay be dangerous. If a breakdown occursplease call a qualified air conditioner technicianor electrician.

    Improper repairs may result in water leakage,electric shock and fire, etc.

    3-2. Refrigerant Piping Installation

    3-2-1. Piping Materials and Joints Used

    For the refrigerant piping installation, copper pipesand joints are mainly used. Copper pipes and jointssuitable for the refrigerant must be chosen andinstalled. Furthermore, it is necessary to use cleancopper pipes and joints whose interior surfaces areless affected by contaminants.

    1. Copper Pipes

    It is necessary to use seamless copper pipeswhich are made of either copper or copper alloyand it is desirable that the amount of residual oilis less than 40 mg/10 m. Do not use copperpipes having a collapsed, deformed or discoloredportion (especially on the interior surface).

    Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tubemay 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.

    Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410Aare as shown in Table 3-2-1. Never use copperpipes thinner than 0.0315 in. (0.8 mm) even whenit is available on the market.

    2. 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 3-2-3 to 3-2-6 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 0.7874in. (20 mm).

    Thicknesses of socket joints are as shown in Table 3-2-2.

    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 than lubricating oils used in the installed air-water heat pump 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.

    d) Flare Processing

    Make certain that a clamp bar and copperpipe have been cleaned.

    By means of the clamp bar, perform the flareprocessing correctly.

    Use either a flare tool for R410A or conven-tional flare tool.

    Flare processing dimensions differ accordingto the type of flare tool. When using a con-ventional flare tool, be sure to secure dimen-sion A by using a gauge for size adjustment. Fig. 3-2-1 Flare processing dimensions

    2. Flare Connecting Procedures and Precautionsa) 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 isthe 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 tighten-ing torque, comply with values designated by manufacturers. Table 3-2-7 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.

    3-3. Tools

    3-3-1. Required Tools

    The service port diameter of packed valve of the outdoor unit in the air-water heat pump using R410A ischanged to prevent mixing of other refrigerant. To reinforce the pressure-resisting strength, flare processingdimensions and opposite side dimension of flare nut (For 1/2 in. 12.7mm) copper pipe) of the refrigerantpiping 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 thefollowing steps.

    1. Never charge refrigerant exceeding the specified amount.

    2. If the specified amount of refrigerant cannot be charged, charge refrigerant bit by bitin COOL mode.

    3. Do not carry out additional charging.

    When additional charging is carried out if refrigerant leaks, the refrigerant composition changes in therefrigeration cycle, that is characteristics of the air conditioner changes, refrigerant exceeding thespecified amount is charged, and working pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally highpressure, and may cause a rupture or personal injury.

    1. Be sure to make setting so that liquidcan 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 thecylinder upside down if cylinder is not equipped with siphon.

    R410A refrigerant is HFC mixed refrigerant.Therefore, if it is charged with gas, the composi-tion of the charged refrigerant changes and thecharacteristics of the equipment varies.

    3-5. Brazing of Pipes

    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, copperor copper alloy, and is relatively expensive thoughit excels in solderability.

    2. Phosphor bronze brazing filler

    Phosphor bronze brazing filler is generally usedto join copper or copper alloy.

    3. Low temperature brazing filler

    Low temperature brazing filler is generally calledsolder, and is an alloy of tin and lead. Since it isweak in adhesive strength, do not use it forrefrigerant pipes.

    1. Phosphor bronze brazing filler tends to reactwith sulfur and produce a fragile compoundwater solution, which may cause a gasleakage. Therefore, use any other type ofbrazing 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.

    3-5-2. Flux

    1. Reason why flux is necessary

    By removing the oxide film and any foreignmatter on the metal surface, it assists the flowof brazing filler.

    In the brazing process, it prevents the metal

    surface from being oxidized.

    By reducing the brazing fillers surface tension,the brazing filler adheres better to the treated

    Flow meterM

    Stop valve

    From Nitrogen cylinder

    Nitrogengas

    Rubber plug

    2. Characteristics required for flux

    Activated temperature of flux coincides with thebrazing temperature.

    Due to a wide effective temperature range, fluxis hard to carbonize.

    It is easy to remove slag after brazing.

    The corrosive action to the treated metal andbrazing filler is minimum.

    It excels in coating performance and is harm-less to the human body.

    As the flux works in a complicated manner asdescribed above, it is necessary to select anadequate type of flux according to the type andshape of treated metal, type of brazing filler andbrazing method, etc.

    3. Types of flux

    Noncorrosive flux

    Generally, it is a compound of borax and boricacid.It is effective in case where the brazing tem-perature is higher than 1472F (800C).

    Activated flux

    Most of fluxes generally used for silver brazingare this type.It features an increased oxide film removingcapability due to the addition of compoundssuch as potassium fluoride, potassium chlorideand sodium fluoride to the borax-boric acidcompound.

    4. Piping materials for brazing and usedbrazing filler/flux

    1. Do not enter flux into the refrigeration cycle.

    2. When chlorine contained in the flux remainswithin the pipe, the lubricating oil deteriorates.Therefore, use a flux which does not containchlorine.

    3. When adding water to the flux, use waterwhich does not contain chlorine (e.g. distilledwater or ion-exchange water).

    4. Remove the flux after brazing.

    3-5-3. Brazing

    As brazing work requires sophisticated techniques,experiences based upon a theoretical knowledge, itmust be performed by a person qualified.

    In order to prevent the oxide film from occurring inthe pipe interior during brazing, it is effective toproceed with brazing while letting dry Nitrogen gas(N2) flow.

    Never use gas other than Nitrogen gas.

    1. Brazing method to prevent oxidation

    1) Attach a reducing valve and a flow-meter tothe Nitrogen gas cylinder.

    2) Use a copper pipe to direct the piping mate-rial, and attach a flow-meter to the cylinder.

    3) Apply a seal onto the clearance between the

    piping material and inserted copper pipe forNitrogen in order to prevent backflow of theNitrogen gas.

    4) When the Nitrogen gas is flowing, be sure tokeep the piping end open.

    5) Adjust the flow rate of Nitrogen gas so that itis lower than 0.03 cfm (0.05 m3/Hr) or 2.9 Psi(0.02 MPa) by means of the reducing valve.

    6) After performing the steps above, keep theNitrogen gas flowing until the pipe cools downto a certain extent (temperature at whichpipes are touchable with hands).

    7) Remove the flux completely after brazing.

    9. OPERATION DESCRIPTION

    9-1. Outline of Air Conditioner Control

    This air conditioner is a capacity-variable type airconditioner, which uses AC or DC motor for the indoorfor motor and the outdoor fan motor. And the capacity-proportional control compressor which can change the

    motor speed in the range from 11 to 96 rps ismounted. The DC motor drive circuit is mounted to theindoor unit. The compressor and the inverter to controlfan motor are mounted to the outdoor unit.

    The entire air conditioner is mainly controlled by theindoor unit controller.

    The indoor unit controller drives the indoor fan motorbased upon command sent from the remote controller,and transfers the operation command to the outdoorunit controller.

    The outdoor unit controller receives operation com-mand from the indoor unit side, and controls theoutdoor fan and the pulse Modulating valve. (P.M.V)

    Besides, detecting revolution position of the compres-sor motor, the outdoor unit controller controls speed ofthe compressor motor by controlling output voltage ofthe inverter and switching timing of the supply power(current transfer timing) so that motors drive accordingto the operation command.And then, the outdoor unit controller transfers reverselythe operating status information of the outdoor unit tocontrol the indoor unit controller.

    As the compressor adopts four-pole brushlessDC motor, the frequency of the supply powerfrom inverter to compressor is two-times cyclesof the actual number of revolution.

    1. Role of indoor unit controller

    The indoor unit controller judges the operationcommands from the remote controller and assumesthe following functions.

    Judgment of suction air temperature of the indoorheat exchanger by using the indoor temp. sensor.(TA sensor)

    Judgment of the indoor heat exchanger tempera-ture 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 (Serialsignal) to the outdoor unit

    Reception of information of operation status(Serial signal including outside temp. data) to theoutdoor unit and judgment/display of error

    Air purifier operation control

    2. Role of outdoor unit controller

    Receiving the operation command signal (Serialsignal) from the indoor unit controller, the outdoorunit performs its role.

    Compressor operation control

    Operation control of outdoor fan motor

    P.M.V. controlOperations followed to judgmentof serial signal from indoor side.

    Detection of inverter input current and currentrelease operation

    Over-current detection and prevention operationto IGBT module (Compressor stop function)

    Compressor and outdoor fan stop function when

    serial signal is off (when the serial signal does notreach the board assembly of outdoor control bytrouble of the signal system)

    Transferring of operation information (Serialsignal) from outdoor unit controller to indoor unitcontroller

    Detection of outdoor temperature and operationrevolution control

    Defrost control in heating operation (Temp.measurement by outdoor heat exchanger andcontrol for 4-way valve and outdoor fan)

    3. Contents of operation command signal

    (Serial signal) from indoor unit controller tooutdoor unit controller

    The following three types of signals are sent fromthe indoor unit controller.

    Operation mode set on the remote controller

    Compressor revolution command signal definedby indoor temperature and set temperature(Correction along with variation of room tempera-ture and correction of indoor heat exchangertemperature are added.)

    Temperature of indoor heat exchanger

    For these signals ([Operation mode] and [Com-pressor revolution] indoor heat exchanger tem-perature), the outdoor unit controller monitors theinput current to the inverter, and performs thefollowed operation within the range that currentdoes not exceed the allowable value.

    4. Contents of operation command signal(Serial signal) from outdoor unit controllerto indoor unit controller

    The following signals are sent from the outdoor unitcontroller.

    The current operation mode

    The current compressor revolution

    Outdoor temperature Existence of protective circuit operation

    For transferring of these signals, the indoor unitcontroller monitors the contents of signals, andjudges existence of trouble occurrence.

    Contents of judgment are described below.

    7. Defrost control(Only in heatingoperation)

    (This function removes frost adhered to the outdoorheat exchanger.)

    The temperature sensor of the outdoor heat ex-changer (Te sensor) judges the frosting status of theoutdoor heat exchanger and the defrost operation isperformed with 4-way valve reverse defrost system.

    The necessity of defrost operation isdetected by the outdoor heat exchangertemperature. The conditions to detect thenecessity of defrost operation differ in A,B, or C zone each. (Table 1)

    Defrost operation in A to C zones

    1) Stop operation of the compressor for20 seconds.

    2) Invert (ON) 4-way valve 10 secondsafter stop of the compressor.

    3) The outdoor fan stops at the same timewhen the compressor stops.

    4) When temperature of the indoor heatexchanger becomes 100F (38C) orlower, stop the indoor fan.

    Returning conditions from defrostoperation to heating operation

    1) Temperature of outdoor heat exchangerrises to 46F (8C) or higher.

    2) Temperature of outdoor heat exchanger iskept at 41F (5C) or higher for 80 seconds.

    3) Defrost operation continues for15 minutes.

    1) Stop operation of the compressor forapprox. 50 seconds.

    2) Invert (OFF) 4-way valve approx. 40seconds after stop of the compressor.

    3) The outdoor fan starts rotating at thesame time when the compressor starts.

    Operation flow and applicable data, etc.

    This function controls the air direction of the indoor unit.

    Description

    Swing operation is perforin range 35 with the Fixed position asthe center.

    If the swing rangeexceeded either upper or lower limit position,swing operation is perfomed in range 35 from the limit.

    3) Swing

    2) Louver position in heating operation

    2) Air direction adjustment

    The position is automatically controlled according to the operation

    The set louver position is stored in memory by the microcomputer,

    The angle of the louver is indicated as the louver closes fully is 0.

    1) Louver position in cooling operation

    mode (COOL/HEAT).

    and the louver returns to the stored position when the next operation

    is performed. (Cooling/Heating memory position)

    Swing

    When pressing[SWING] button during

    operation, the louverstarts swinging.

    The louver position canbe arbitrarily set up by

    pressing [FIX] button.
