SELECTION OF INSTALLATION PLACE Indoor Unit ◆ Install the unit at a place close to the wall facing the outside as it is necessary to perform piping connection with the outdoor unit. - It is effective to install the unit at a window side to ensure uniform distribution of indoor temperature. ◆ Install the unit at a place where there is no obstacle against the wind around the air inlet and air outlet. ◆ Install the unit horizontally at a stable, rigid place.
/ ELECTRICAL WORK The electrical work should be performed by a specialist qualified for the work. ◆ Use the three phase power supply, and be sure to install the sub power distributing board for exclusive use with the unit(separately purchased by the user). ❈ Avoid octopus-type wiring as it can cause a drop in voltage, thus resulting in poor performance of the automatic control circuit. ◆ Be sure to install circuit breaker (separately purchased by the user). ◆ Be sure to connect the grounding wire.
ELECTRICAL WORK When connecting 3Phase 3wires 208 ~ 230V AC 1. Remove cover of electric box on side panel of outdoor unit. 2. Connect electric input wires (R,S,T) to each terminal (R,S,T) of the electric box on outdoor unit respectively. (Input wires are purchased by the user separately.) 3. Connect electric wires (red, white, black) to each terminal (red, white, black) on indoor and outdoor unit respectively.
/ INSTALLATION METHOD Installation Procedures 1. Open the inlet grille, and remove the flare nut. 2. Bend the connection pipe to an appropriate length using the spring bender depending upon the installation place. - Allowable pipe length : Maximum 25m(82ft) - Allowable pipe drop distance : Maximum 15m(49ft) - Make no more than ten bending points on the pipe ❈ When the pipe length is in excess of the standard pipe length of 5m(16ft 5 in), add the refrigerant (R-22) of 50g(0.11lb) for each additional 1m(3.
INSTALLATION METHOD Connection of Refrigerant Piping ❏ Flare Processing 1. Cut the pipe using the pipe cutter. 90 Oblique Roughness Burr 2. Insert the flare nut into the pipe, and then perform the flare processing. D A Outer Diameter A ø 9.52 mm(3/8") 1.8 mm(7/100") ø 19.05 mm(3/4") 2 1 5 mm(9/100") ◆ Unproper flaring Inclined Surface damaged Cracked Uneven thickness ❏ Pipe Bending 1. Perform bending of the pipe using the bender which has a specified bending radius. 2.
Drilling a Hole in the Wall ◆ Drill a hole of 70mm(3 inch) in diameter to the outside. ◆ The drilling should be done at a distance of less than 150mm(6 inch) from the floor facing the indoor unit. Less than 150mm (6 inch) ø70mm (3 inch) Drain Hose ◆ Extend the drain hose to the drain hose connected to the drain pan, and fix it with the tape or a cable tie to prevent separation. Then make a covering of it so that water can not flow outwardly.
INSTALLATION METHOD Indoor Unit In order to install drain hose through wall, adjust height (max. 150mm/5.91 inch) of the indoor unit using leg holder. ❏ Fixing to the floor ◆ When using the leg holder of the indoor unit. 1. Lie down the unit on flat floor. Leg holder of the indoor unit 2. Insert the leg holders into screwed holes and then fasten them clockwise. 3. Turn the unit right and adjust horizontal line of it. ❈ Mis-alignment of the unit can cause vibration and noise.
/ AIR PURGE ◆ Be sure to perform the air purge of the indoor unit, and piping using the refrigerant of the outdoor unit at the time of installation. 1. Connect the charging hose of low pressure side of manifold gauge to the packed valve having a service port (3/4" Packed valve) as shown at the figure. Outdoor unit Indoor unit A Gas pipe side C B Liquid pipe side D 2. Open the valve of the low pressure side of manifold gauge counter-clockwise. 3.
REFRIGERANT CHARGING Air purge(at the time of new installation only) Close the gas pipe side valve by turning it clockwise. Connect the pressure gauge to the low pressure side service valve, and then open the gas pipe side valve again. Connect it to the refrigerant filling tank. (Turn the tank upside down : Fill the refrigerant in liquid form.) Start cooling operation. Check the pressure of the pressure gauge. Check whether the low pressure side is within the range of 4.5~5.
/ CHECK AND TEST OPERATION Check ◆ Be sure to check the following again after completion of installation. 1. Check the piping connection area for any gas leakage. Outdoor connection area Indoor connection area 2. Is the drain hose properly connected? Drain hose 3. Is the insulation of the piping in good condition? Indoor and outdoor connection 4.
CHECK AND TEST OPERATION Test Operation ◆ After checking, read the owner’s instructions carefully, and perform a test operation. Then deliver the unit to the customer. (When delivering the unit, be sure to read carefully and follow the contents of the owner’s instructions.) CAUTION 1.
