86 Function and Control
3.3 Controls at Mode Changing / Start-up
3.3.1 Preheating Operation
Outline Operate the inverter in the open phase operation with the conditions including the preheating
command from the indoor, the outdoor air temperature and discharge pipe temperature.
The power consumption of preheating operation is 35W. (The total power consumption depends
on the number of the indoor units.)
Detail Preheating ON Condition

When outdoor air temperature is below 10.5°C or discharge pipe temperature is below
10.5°C, inverter in open phase operation starts.
OFF Condition

When outdoor air temperature is higher than 12°C or discharge pipe temperature is higher
than 12°C, inverter in open phase operation stops.
3.3.2 Four Way Valve Switching
Outline of heating
operation
Heat Pump Only
During the heating operation current must be conducted and during cooling and defrosting
current must not be conducted. In order to eliminate the switching sound (as the four way valve
coil switches from ON to OFF) when the heating is stopped, the delay switch of the four way
valve must be carried out after the operation stopped.
Detail The OFF delay of four way valve
Energize the coil for 150 sec after unit operation is stopped.
3.3.3 Four Way Valve Operation Compensation
Outline Heat Pump Only
At the beginning of the operation as the four way valve is switched, acquire the differential
pressure required for activating the four way valve by having output the operating frequency,
which is more than a certain fixed frequency, for a certain fixed time.
The lower limit frequency is restricted to 40Hz for 70 seconds on both cooling and heating,
except under the condition of heating overload (outdoor temperature
≥
15 degree).
Detail Staring Conditions
1. When starting compressor for heating.
2. When the operating mode changes from the previous time.
3. When starting compressor for rushing defrosting or resetting.
4. When starting compressor for the first time after the reset with the power is ON.
Set the lower limit frequency to 40 (model by model) Hz for 70 seconds with any conditions
1 through 4 above.
3.3.4 3 Minutes Stand-by
Prohibit to turn ON the compressor for 3 minutes after turning it off.
(Except when defrosting. (Only for Heat Pump Model).)
