1. PRECAUTIONS
■Before installing this equipment, ensure all local and national
regulations are complied with.
■Read these ”PRECAUTIONS” carefully prior to Installation.
■Before performing maintenance ensure the electrical power
circuit has been turned off. Failure to do so will result in serious
injury.
■Ensure both the installation manual and the owners manual are
kept together and handed to the customer upon completion.
CAUTION
New Refrigerant Air Conditioner Installation
CAUTION
An all-pole disconnection device which has at least 3 mm separation
distance in all poles and a residual current device (RCD) shall be
incorporated into the fixed wiring in accordance with national wiring
regulations.
WARNING
The appliance shall be installed in accordance with national wiring
regulations.
When installing, ensure communication and electrical power supply
cables do not touch the copper pipework.
The temperature of the refrigeration circuit will be high and may damage
cables.
An all-pole disconnection device which has at least 3 mm separation
distance between all poles and a residual current device(RCD)with the
rating of above 10 mA shall be incorporated in the fixed wiring according
to the national regulations.
Ensure only qualified persons carry out works on this equipment.
Incorrect installation may result in can damage or serious injury.
Do not modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or by-
passing any of the safety interlock switches.
Exposing the unit to water or other moisture before installation may
cause a short-circuit on the electrical components.
Do not store the unit where it can be exposed to water or moisture.
After unpacking, ensure you inspect the unit for damage.
When installing this equipment, anti vibration pads must be installed to
stop vibration.
To avoid personal injury (with sharp edges), care must be taken when
handling components.
Installation of the unit must be done as per the instructions set in this
installation manual.
Incorrect installation may result in component failure, damage to property
or injury.
When the air conditioning unit is installed in a small room, provide
appropriate measures to ensure that the concentration of refrigerant
leakage in the room does not exceed the thickness level should a leak
occur.
Install the air conditioning unit securely in a location where the base can
sustain the weight adequately.
If refrigerant gas has leaked during the installation work, ventilate the
room immediately.
If the leaked refrigerant gas comes in contact with a naked flame, noxious gas
may be generated..
After installation is complete, ensure a satisfactory strength/tightness
test has been performed to ensure there is no refrigerant gas leakage.
Electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in
accordance with the Installation Manual.
Ensure equipment is grounded.
Do not connect ground wires to gas pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or
ground wires for telephone cables.
Conform with national wiring standards.
Inappropriate grounding may cause electric shock.
Do not install the air conditioner in a location where it is at a risk of
exposure to a combustible gas.

■Do not install the unit in the following locations as component failure
will occur.
•Where machine oil is present.
•Where sulphuric acid is present.
•Where high frequency radio waves are likely to be generated.
3. OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION
3.1 Installation location
The following locations may cause component failure.
•Where there is a combustible gas leakage.
•Where there is oil surrounding.
•Where there is salty air surrounding.
•Where there is caustic gas (the sulfide, for example) existing in
the air.
•A location where discharge air will affect others.
•A location where noise affects neighbors.
•A location that is too weak to bear the weight of the unit.
•A location which is uneven.
•A location where there is insufficient ventilation.
•Near a private power station or high Frequency equipment.
•A location where the indoor/outdoor unit, power cord and
connecting wires are less than 1m away from a tv or radio.
•Installing the unit where there is insufficient maintenance access.
CAUTION
Keep the indoor and outdoor power supply wiring and communication
wiring at least 1 meter away from televisions and radios. This is to
prevent image and noise interference. In certain circumstances, 1m
may not be sufficient.

3.3 Handling and installation
•Caution must be taken when handling the outdoor unit, the
weight is not in the centre of the unit. The unit is heavier on the
front right side. For lifting advice consult HSE and use specified
lifting equipment.
•Do not touch the fan blades. The fan blades are sharp and could
cause an injury.
•When handling the unit, ensure you do not lean the unit more than
45 degrees as this will cause internal damage to the compressor.
•Fasten the feet of this unit with bolts firmly to prevent it from
toppling over. (Refer to Fig.3-7)

4.1 Refrigerant pipework
CAUTION
To prevent the refrigerant pipework from oxidising, it is necessary to purge
nitrogen through the piping whilst brazing.
The outdoor unit can be piped in various ways. The pipes can run from the
back, front and under the unit. Remove knock outs where appropriate.
Table 4-1
Fat pipe
Front Side Back Undersurface
CAUTION
When piping from the side please remove the metal L shape plate, otherwise
cabling will not fit.
When piping from the back, ensure you take out the rubber support blanket
beside the inner outlet pipe.
When piping from the front side cut out the front knock out hole.
When piping the undersurface: Remove the knockouts from inside to outside.
Ensure you use the correct size hole when you are piping the unit.

•Branch header must be connected with the indoor units directly,
further branch connections are not allowed.
•Select branch joint
•Select the branch joint required by the total designed capacity of the
indoor units which it connects to. If this capacity is more than that of
the outdoor unit, then select the connection according to the outdoor
unit.
•The selection of branch header depends on the quantity of branches
it connects to.

4.7 Removing The Contaminants in the Pipework
Ensure pipework is clear from any water or dirt prior to connecting onto the
outdoor unit.
When cleaning pipework, use nitrogen to flush through the system. Do not
use refrigerant or water to clean the pipework.
4.8 Strength/Tightness Test
Pressure test the system with nitrogen to 44kgf/cm2. Ensure a 24 hour
strength test has been completed for all new installations. For guidance on
tightness testing for existing installations, please refer to F Gas Regulations.
CAUTION
1 Pressured nitrogen [4.3 MPa (44kg/cm2) for R410A] should be used
for strength testing.
2 The high pressure/low pressure valves must be closed when applying
pressured nitrogen.
4.9 Vacuuming the installation
•Use a vacuum pump to create the vacuum. do not use refrigerant to
expel air.
•Vacuuming should be done on liquid, gas and oil balance pipework.
4.10 Refrigerant Amount to be Added
Calculate the additional refrigerant to be added according to the diameter
and the length of the liquid side pipe.
•When the outdoor unit connects 1 indoor unit:

6. TEST RUNNING
CAUTION
•Ensure power to the outdoor unit has been turned on for at least
12 hours prior to start up.
•Ensure isolation valves have been opened prior to running the
unit.
7. PRECAUTIONS ON REFRIGERANT
LEAKAGE
This air conditioning unit uses R410a as a refrigerant which is non
flammable. The room for the air conditioning unit should big enough so that
any refrigerant leakage is unable to reach critical thickness.
•Critical thickness------maximum exposure of refrigerant without any
harm to person.
•Refrigerant critical thickness: 0.44 [kg/m3] for R410A.
Confirm the critical thickness using the following steps, and take necessary
actions.
1 Calculate the sum of the charge volume (A[kg]) Total Refrigerant
volume of 10HP=factory refrigerant volume + superaddition
2 Calculate the indoor cubage (B[m ]) (as the minimum cubage.
Calculate the refrigerant thickness
A[kg] ≤ critical thickness
B[m3]
Counter measure against over high thickness
1 Install a mechanical ventilator to reduce the refrigerant thickness
under a critical level. (ventilate regularly)
2 Install leak alarm facility related to a mechanical ventilator if you can
not regularly ventilate.
b. Leak alarm related to mechanical ventilator
