Location For Installation Of The Condensing Units
As condensing temperature rises, evaporating temperature rises and cooling capacity drops. In order to achieve
maximum cooling capacity, the location selected should fulfil the following requirements :
• Install the condensing (outdoor) unit in a way such that hot air distributed by the outdoor condensing unit cannot be
drawn in again (as in the case of short circuit of hot discharge air) Allow sufficient space for maintenance around the
unit.
• Ensure that there is no obstruction of air flow into or out of the unit. Remove obstacle which block air intake or
discharge.
• The location must be well ventilated, so that the unit can draw in and distribute plenty of air thus lowering the
condensing temperature.
• A place capable of carrying the weight of the outdoor unit and isolating noise and vibration.
• A place protected from direct sunlight. Otherwise use an awning for protection, if necessary.
• A place where smooth drainage of rain water and water formed by defrosting is acceptable.
• The location must not be susceptible to dust or oil mist.
Caution : If the condensing unit is operated in an atmosphere containing oils (including machine oils), salt
(coastal area), sulphide gas (near hot spring, oil refinery plant), such substances may lead to failure
of the unit.
