the room well, in the event that is refrigerant
gas leaks during the installation. Be careful not to allow
contact of the refrigerant gas with a flame as this will
cause the generation of poisonous gas.

When Wiring

ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSE


SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED
ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO
WIRE THIS SYSTEM.

Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.


Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the
flare and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten
the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free connection.

Do
 not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing
are completed or reconnected and checked.

Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.

H
 ighly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this
system. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these
instructions when wiring. Improper connections and
inadequate grounding can cause accidental injury or
death.
Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
 onnect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause
C
overheating at connection points and a possible fire hazard.

WARNING

To
 prevent possible hazards from insulation failure,
the unit must be grounded.
This

equipment is strongly recommended to be installed
with Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB) or Residual
Current Device (RCD). Otherwise, it may cause electrical
shock and fire in case of equipment breakdown or
insulation breakdown.

When performing piping work do not


mix air except for specified refrigerant
(R410A) in refrigeration cycle. It causes
capacity down, and risk of explosion

appliance, do not repair by yourself.
Contact to the sales dealer or service
dealer for a repair.

Do
 not stick any object into the
FAN CASE.
You may be injured and the unit
may be damaged.

Check of Density Limit


The room in which the air conditioner is to be
installed requires a design that in the event of
refrigerant gas leaking out, its density will not exceed
a set limit.
The refrigerant (R410A), which is used in the air
conditioner, is safe, without the toxicity or combustibility of
ammonia, and is not restricted by laws imposed to protect
the ozone layer. However, since it contains more than
air, it poses the risk of suffocation if its density should
rise excessively. Suffocation from leakage of refrigerant
is almost non-existent. With the recent increase in the
number of high density buildings, however, the installation
of multi air conditioner systems is on the increase
because of the need for effective use of floor space,
individual control, energy conservation by curtailing heat
and carrying power, etc.
Most importantly, the multi air conditioner system is able
to replenish a large amount of refrigerant compared to
conventional individual air conditioners. If a single unit
of the multi air conditioner system is to be installed in
a small room, select a suitable model and installation
procedure so that if the refrigerant accidentally leaks out,
its density does not reach the limit (and in the event of
an emergency, measures can be made before injury can
occur).

ASHRAE and the International Mechanical Code of


the ICC as well as CSA provide guidance and define
safeguards related to the use of refrigerants, all of which
define a Refrigerant Concentration Level (RCL) of 25
pounds (11.3kg) per 1,000 cubic feet (28.3m3) for R410A
refrigerant. For additional guidance and precautions
related to refrigerant safety, please refer to the following
documents:
International Mechanical Code 2009 (IMC-2009)
(or more recently revised)
ASHRAE 15
ASHRAE 34

Precautions for Installation Using New Refrigerant


1. Care regarding tubing
1-1. Process tubing
l Material: Use C1220 phosphorous deoxidized copper specified in JIS H3300 Copper and Copper Alloy Seamless
Pipes and Tubes.
l Tubing

size: Be sure to use the sizes indicated in the table below.

l Use

a tube cutter when cutting the tubing, and be sure to remove any flash. This also applies to distribution joints
(optional).

l When bending tubing, use a bending radius that is 4 times the outer diameter of the tubing or larger.

CAUTION

Use sufficient care in handling the tubing. Seal the tubing ends with caps or tape to
prevent dirt, moisture, or other foreign substances from entering.
These substances can result in system malfunction.

1-2. Prevent impurities including water, dust and oxide from entering the tubing. Impurities can cause R410A
refrigerant deterioration and compressor defects. Due to the features of the refrigerant and refrigerating machine
oil, the prevention of water and other impurities becomes more important than ever.
2. Be sure to recharge the refrigerant only in liquid form.
2-1. Since R410A is a non-azeotrope, recharging the refrigerant in gas form can lower performance and cause defects
in the unit.
2-2. Since refrigerant composition changes and performance decreases when gas leaks, collect the remaining
refrigerant and recharge the required total amount of new refrigerant after fixing the leak.
3. Different tools required
3-1. Tool specifications have been changed due to the characteristics of R410A.

Some tools for R22- and R407C-type refrigerant systems cannot be used.

Leak detectors for CFC and HCFC that react to chlorine


do not function because R410A contains no chlorine.
Leak detector for HFC134a can be used for R410A.

No

For systems that use R22, apply mineral oil (Suniso


oil) to the flare nuts on the tubing to prevent refrigerant
leakage. For machines that use R407C or R410A, apply
synthetic oil (ether oil) to the flare nuts.

1. Compressor specifications are different.
If recharging a R22 or R407C compressor with
R410A, durability will significantly decrease since
some of the materials used for compressor parts are
different.
2. Existing tubing cannot be used (especially R22).
Completely cleaning out residual refrigerating
machine oil is impossible, even by flushing.
3. Refrigerating machine oil differs (R22).
Since R22 refrigerating machine oil is mineral oil, it
does not dissolve in R410A. Therefore, refrigerating
machine oil discharged from the compressor can
cause compressor damage.

1-11. Installing Distribution Joint


(1) Refer to HOW TO ATTACH DISTRIBUTION JOINT enclosed
with the optional distribution joint kit
(CZ-P680PJ1U, CZ-P1350PJ1U, CZ-P160BK1U,
CZ-P680BK1U, CZ-P1350BK1U).

(3) If there are height differences between indoor units or if branch
tubing that follows a distribution joint is connected to only 1
unit, a trap or ball valve must be added to that distribution joint.
(When adding the ball valve, locate it within 1.3 ft. (40cm) of the
distribution joint.)
If a trap or ball valve is not added, do not operate the system
before repairs to a malfunctioning unit are completed.
(The refrigerant oil sent through the tubing to the
malfunctioning unit will accumulate and may damage the
compressor.)

11

30

Arrow view C

(2) When creating a branch using a commercially available T-joint


(header joint system), orient the main tubing so that it is either
horizontal (level) or vertical.
In order to prevent accumulation of refrigerant oil in stopped units,
if the main tubing is horizontal and directly connected to the indoor
unit, each branch tubing length should be at an angle that is
greater than horizontal.
If there are other cases, keep the main tubing horizontal (level).
If the main tubing is vertical, provide a raised starting portion for
each branch.

CAUTION

Pay special attention to any location, such as


a basement, etc., where leaking refrigerant
can accumulate, since refrigerant gas is
heavier than air.

When installing an air conditioner in a room, it is necessary to


ensure that even if the refrigerant gas accidentally leaks out, its
density does not exceed the limit level for that room.

l Charging procedure
Be sure to charge with R410A refrigerant in liquid form.

1. After performing a vacuum, charge with refrigerant from the liquid tubing side.
At this time, all valves must be in the fully closed position.

2. If it was not possible to charge the designated amount, operate the system in Cooling mode while charging with refrigerant
from the gas tubing side. (This is performed at the time of the test run. For this, all valves must be in the fully open position.
However if only one outdoor unit is installed, a balance tube is not used. Therefore, leave the valves fully closed.)
Charge with R410A refrigerant in liquid form.
With R410A refrigerant, charge while adjusting the amount being fed a little at a time in order to prevent liquid refrigerant from
backing up.

l After charging is completed, turn all valves to the fully open position.
l Replace the tubing covers as they were before.
CAUTION

1. R410A additional charging absolutely must be done through liquid charging.


2. The R410A refrigerant cylinder has a gray base color, and the top part is pink.
3. The R410A refrigerant cylinder includes a siphon tube. Check that the siphon tube is present.
(This is indicated on the label at the top of the cylinder.)
4. Due to differences in the refrigerant, pressure, and refrigerant oil involved in installation, it is
not possible in some cases to use the same tools for R22 and for R410A.

l heat sources, exhaust fans, etc.


l damp, humid or uneven locations

Over 1 ft.(300mm)

l indoors (no-ventilation location)

* Over 2 in. (50mm)

DO:
l choose a place as cool as possible.
* Over 2 in.
(50mm)

l choose a place that is well ventilated.


l allow enough room around the unit for air intake/exhaust
and possible maintenance.
l use lug bolts or equal to bolt down unit, reducing vibration
and noise.

* When setting the anchor bolt to "B" or "C" (see page 19),
make enough space for installation operation.
(Space between units: Over 0.6 ft. (180mm), Space from
wall: Over 0.83 ft. (250mm))
* When installing a snow-proof ducting, make space between
the units 7-3/32 (180mm) regardless of the positions (A - C)
for installation holes.
* Make a walk-in space in front and behind the unit to ensure
ease of operation.

Heat
source

Fig. 2-1
Installation Space
Install the outdoor unit where there is enough space for
ventilation. Otherwise the unit may not operate properly.
Fig.2-2 shows the minimum space requirement around
the outdoor units when 3 sides are open and only 1 side is
shuttered, with open space above the unit. The mounting
base should be concrete or a similar material that allows for
adequate drainage. Make provisions for anchor bolts, platform
height, and other site-specific installation requirements.
CAUTION

Fig. 2-2

l Leave space open above the


unit.
l Construct louvers or other
openings in the wall, if
necessary, to ensure adequate
ventilation.

NOTE
l 
Do not do any wiring or tubing within 1 ft. (0.3m) of the front
panel, because this space is needed as a servicing space
for the compressor.
l 
Ensure a base height of 4" (10cm) or more to ensure that
drainage water does not accumulate and freeze around the
bottom of the unit.
l 
If installing a drain pan, install the drain pan prior to
installing the outdoor unit.
* Make sure there is at least 6" (15cm) between the outdoor
unit and the ground.
Also, the direction of the tubing and electrical wiring should
be from the front of the outdoor unit.

2-2. Shield for Horizontal Exhaust Discharge


It is necessary to install an air-discharge chamber (field
supply) to direct exhaust from the fan horizontally if it is
difficult to provide a minimum space of 7 ft. (2m) between the
air-discharge outlet and a nearby obstacle. (Fig. 2-3)
CAUTION

In regions with heavy snowfall,


the outdoor unit should be
provided with a solid, raised
platform and snow-proof
ducting (field supply). (Fig. 2-4)

2-3. Installing the Outdoor Unit in Heavy Snow


Areas
In locations where wind-blown snow can be a problem,
snowproof ducting (field supply) should be fitted to the unit
and direct exposure to the wind should be avoided as much as
possible. (Fig. 2-5) The following problems may occur if proper
countermeasures are not taken:

Fig. 2-3
DO

l The fan in the outdoor unit may stop running, causing the
unit to be damaged.
l There may be no air flow.
l The tubing may freeze and burst.
l The condenser pressure may drop because of strong wind,
and the indoor unit may freeze.
AVOID

2-4. Precautions When Installing in Heavy Snow


Areas
a) The platform should be higher than the maximum snow
depth. (Fig. 2-4)
b) The 2 anchoring feet of the outdoor unit should be used for
the platform, and the platform should be installed beneath
the air-intake side of the outdoor unit.

Fallen snow

Without snowproof ducting


(Without platform)

c) The platform foundation must be solid and the unit must


be secured with anchor bolts.

With snowproof ducting


(High platform)

Fig. 2-4

d) When installing on a roof subject to strong wind,


countermeasures must be taken to prevent the unit from
being overturned.

3. HOW TO INSTALL THE OUTDOOR UNIT


3-1. Transporting
When transporting the unit, have it delivered as close to the installation site as
possible without unpacking. Use a hook for suspending the unit. (Fig. 3-1)
CAUTION

l When hoisting the outdoor unit, pass ropes or straps under the bottom plate
as shown in the figure at right. When hoisting, the angle between the rope
and top panel must be 70 or greater so that the rope does not come into
contact with the fan guard.
(Use 2 lengths of rope 25 ft. (approx. 7.6 m) long or more.)
l When passing the ropes through the square holes of the bottom plate:
Place the rope in the outer edge of the square holes.
l Use protective panels or padding at all locations where the rope
contacts the outer casing or other parts to prevent scratching.
Rope
In particular, use protective material (such as cloth or cardboard)
to prevent the edges of the top panel from being scratched.
l Be careful of the fan.
There is danger of injury if the fan starts to turn during inspection.
Be sure to turn OFF the remote power switch before beginning

tubing side is connected by brazing.

5-1. Connecting the Refrigerant Tubing


Use of the Flaring Method
Many of conventional split system air conditioners employ the
flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes which run between
indoor and outdoor units. In this method, the copper tubes are
flared at each end and connected with flare nuts.
Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool

Fig. 5-1

(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a tube cutter.
It is recommended to cut approx. 1 2 ft. (0.3 - 0.6m) longer
than the tubing length you estimate.

Copper
tubing

(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a tube
reamer or file. This process is important and should be done
carefully to make a good flare. (Fig. 5-1)

Reamer

NOTE
When reaming, hold the tube end downward and be sure that no
copper scraps fall into the tube. (Fig. 5-2)

Fig. 5-2

(3) Remove the flare nut from the unit and be sure to mount it
on the copper tube.
(4) Make a flare at the end of copper tube with a flare tool.
(Fig. 5-3)
Flare nut

NOTE

Copper
tubing

A good flare should have the following characteristics:


l inside surface is glossy and smooth

l edge is smooth

Fig. 5-3

l tapered sides are of uniform length

32

Caution Before Connecting Tubes Tightly


(1) Apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape to prevent dust or water from entering the
tubes before they are used.
(2) Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the flare and union
before connecting them together. This is effective for reducing gas leaks. (Fig. 5-4)
Apply refrigerant
lubricant

(3) For proper connection, align the union tube and flare tube straight with each other,
then screw in the flare nut lightly at first to obtain a smooth match. (Fig. 5-5)
l Adjust the shape of the liquid tube using a tube bender at the installation site and
connect it to the liquid tubing side valve using a flare.

Fig. 5-4

Cautions During Brazing


l Replace air inside the tube with nitrogen gas to prevent copper oxide film
from forming during the brazing process. (Oxygen, carbon dioxide and Freon
are not acceptable.)

Union

l Do not allow the tubing to get too hot during brazing.


The nitrogen gas inside the tubing may overheat, causing refrigerant system
valves to become damaged.
Therefore allow the tubing to cool when brazing.

Flare nut

Fig. 5-5
Torque wrench

l Use a reducing valve for the nitrogen cylinder.


l Do not use agents intended to prevent the formation of oxide film.
These agents adversely affect the refrigerant and refrigerant oil, and may
cause damage or malfunctions.

Outdoor unit

5-2. Connecting Tubing Between Indoor and Outdoor Units


(1) Tightly connect the indoor-side refrigerant tubing
extended from the wall with the outdoor-side
tubing.
(2) To fasten the flare nuts, apply specified torque as at
right:
l When removing the flare nuts from the tubing
connections, or when tightening them after connecting the
tubing, be sure to use 2 adjustable wrenches or spanners
as shown. (Fig. 5-6)
If the flare nuts are over-tightened, the flare may be
damaged, which could result refrigerant leakage and
cause in injury or asphyxiation to room occupants.

l For the flare nuts at tubing connections, be sure to use
(19.05)
the flare nuts that were supplied with the unit, or else flare
nuts for R410A (type 2).
The refrigerant tubing that is used must be of the correct
wall thickness as shown in the table at right.
Because the pressure is approximately 1.6 times higher than conventional refrigerant pressure, the use of ordinary flare nuts
(type 1) or thin-walled tubes may result in tube rupture, injury, or asphyxiation caused by refrigerant leakage.
l In order to prevent damage to the flare caused by over-tightening of the flare nuts, use the table above as a guide when
tightening.
l When tightening the flare nut on the liquid tube, use an adjustable wrench with a nominal handle length of 7-7/8" (200 mm).

* For gas tubing, the insulation material must be heat resistant to


248F (120C) or above.
For other tubing, it must be heat resistant to 176F (80C) or
above.
Insulation material thickness must be 25/64" (10mm) or greater.
If the conditions inside the ceiling exceed DB 86F (30C) and
RH 70%, increase the thickness of the gas tubing insulation
material by 1 step.

5-4. Taping the Tubes


(1) At this time, the refrigerant tubes (and electrical wiring if local
codes permit) should be taped together with armoring tape in
1 bundle.
To prevent the condensation from overflowing the drain pan,
keep the drain hose separate from the refrigerant tubing.
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor unit to
the top of the tubing where it enters the wall.
As you wrap the tubing, overlap half of each previous tape
turn.

Clamp
Insulated tubes Drain hose

(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to the wall, using 1 clamp approx.
each ft. (m) (Fig. 5-9).

NOTE
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly since this will decrease
the heat insulation effect.
Also ensure that the condensation drain hose splits away from the
bundle and drips clear of the unit and the tubing.

Fig. 5-9

5-5. Finishing the Installation


After finishing insulating and taping over the tubing, use sealing
putty to seal off the hole in the wall to prevent rain and draft from
entering. (Fig. 5-10)

6. AIR PURGING

Manifold gauge

Air and moisture in the refrigerant system may have undesirable effects as
indicated below.
l pressure in the system rises
l operating current rises
l cooling (or heating) efficiency drops
l moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and block capillary tubing
l water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant system
Fig. 6-1

Therefore, the indoor unit and tubing between the indoor and outdoor unit
must be leak tested and evacuated to remove any noncondensables and
moisture from the system.

(3) Pressurize the system to no more than 484 psig (3.34MPa {33.1 kgf/cm2G})
with dry nitrogen gas and close the cylinder valve when the gauge reading
reaches 484 psig (3.34MPa {33.1 kgf/cm2G}).
Then, test for leaks with liquid soap.
CAUTION

To avoid nitrogen entering the refrigerant system


in a liquid state, the top of the cylinder must be
higher than the bottom when you pressurize the
system.
Usually, the cylinder is used in a vertical
standing position.

(5) After the system is found to be free of leaks, relieve the nitrogen
pressure by loosening the charge hose connector at the nitrogen
cylinder.
When the system pressure is reduced to normal, disconnect the hose
from the cylinder.

Evacuation
(1) Attach the charge hose end described in the preceding steps to the
vacuum pump to evacuate the tubing and indoor unit.
Confirm that the Lo knob of the manifold valve is open.
Then, run the vacuum pump.
The operation time for evacuation varies with the tubing length and
capacity of the pump.

ATTENTION!
Adjustment of terminating resistance (plug) is necessary.
Communication failure will occur unless adjustment is made correctly.
Terminating resistance (plug) is mounted on outdoor unit control P.C. board.
When connecting central controller, interface or peripheral equipment, adjustment of terminating resistance (plug) is necessary.
Although the connection is not made, confirmation is necessary for VRF systems.
In the case of a refrigerant system, the terminating resistance (plug) for this inter-unit control wiring (S-LINK wiring) is one
location (Refer to section 7-5. Auto Address Setting).
For 2 or more refrigerant systems, 2 locations should be valid (SHORT for VRF systems at shipment). (Refer to section
7-5.Auto Address Setting)
In order to make 2 locations valid, let the terminating resistance (plug) of the nearest outdoor unit and the farthest outdoor unit
be valid (SHORT side) from the location of central controller.
In other refrigerant systems excepting 2 locations described above, make them invalid (OPEN side).
It is prohibited making more than 3 locations of terminating resistance valid.
Since the use of linking the sub outdoor units of VRF systems is not connected to the inter-unit control wiring, it is not necessary
to make the terminating resistance invalid OPEN side.
Make final confirmation regarding the central controller or interface & inter-unit control wiring (S-LINK wiring) connected to the
peripheral equipment.
Measure the line resistance with a tester and check whether the values are in the range of 30 - 120.
If the resistance values are out of range, check again the terminating resistance.
Nevertheless, if the values are out of range, the problem comes from wiring.
Is the connection properly made?

Megger

Line

Are there any scratches or damages on the coated surface?


Measure the line, between wires and ground with the 500V megger (insulation
resistance meter) and check the values are over 100M.
When measuring, be sure to remove both edges of the wire from the terminal board.
If not removed, it will be damaged.
If the line resistance is within 100M, newly carry out the wiring work.
