Mitsubishi Electric CITY MULTI CMY-Q100VBK User manual

When installing or relocating the unit, check
that no substance other than the specified
refrigerant (R410A) enters the refrigerant circuit.
¡Any presence of foreign substance or air can cause abnormal
pressure rise or explosion.
¡For your safety, thoroughly read the following instructions prior to installation.
Safety Precautions
¡Thoroughly read the following “Safety Precautions” to ensure proper installation.
¡Observe the following important safety precautions at all times.
¡Hazards that can occur from incorrect handling are classified by the symbols below:

CAUTION
WARNING
Incorrect handling can result in death or serious injury.
Incorrect handling can result in bodily injury and/or structure damage.
❈See the Installation Manual that came with the outdoor unit for installation instructions.
CAUTION
Only a dealer or qualified technician should
perform installation.
¡Improper installation may result in refrigerant gas leakage
and equipment damage.
Do not make any modifications or alterations.
Consult your dealer for repair.
¡Improper installation may result in water leakage, electric shock,
or fire.
In the event of a refrigerant leak, thoroughly
ventilate the room.
¡If refrigerant leaks and comes in contact with an open flame,
toxic gases will be generated.
Properly install all parts according to the
instructions in the Installation Manual.
¡If the wrong twinning pipe or wrong size connecting pipe is
used, air conditioning performance will suffer.
After installation, check for a refrigerant leak.
¡If leaked refrigerant comes in contact with a heat source,
such as a fan heater, stove, or electric grill, toxic gases will be
generated.
Properly dispose of packing materials.
¡Plastic bags can pose suffocation and choking hazards: keep
them out of the reach of children. Tear the plastics bags
before disposing of them.
Do not touch the refrigerant pipes and
refrigerant circuit components with bare
hands during and immediately after operation.
¡During or immediately after operation, certain parts of the unit
such as pipes and compressor may be either very cold or hot,
depending on the state of the refrigerant in the unit at the
time. To reduce the risk of frostbites and burns, do not touch
these parts with bare hands.

2. Selecting the Correct Size Refrigerant Pipes and Using the Twinning Kit
(1) Pipe size
1Field-supply the pipes to be connected to the kit.
2If the pipe was cut with a pipe cutter, remove the
burrs and eliminate foreign materials before
connecting.
❈ On the low-pressure side, the twinning kit connects to
the field-supplied pipes inside the heat source unit.
The distributor on the low-pressure side must be
placed in the heat source unit that has a larger
capacity index of the two, regardless of the relative
positions of the heat source units or their addresses.
If the distributor is placed in the heat source unit that
has a smaller capacity, refrigerant will not be properly
distributed and compressor failure may result.
( If heat source units that have the same capacity are
used in combination, the distributor can be placed in
either heat source unit.)
❈Choose the correct size pipe using the above table. Connect the field- supplied pipe to the twinning kit for the sizes in the
table that are marked with an asterisk (*).

· To prevent the refrigerant service valve from being damaged, do
not let its temperature rise above 120
˚C [248˚F] .
Place a wet towel on the refrigerant service valve before brazing
the pipes.
· Direct the blazing torch flame away from the adjacent cables and
sheet metal to keep them from being damaged.
CAUTION
(2) Connecting the twinning pipe kit
(1) Braze the high-pressure pipe (6) to the refrigerant
service valve.
(2) Screw down the low-pressure twinning pipe kit (1) to the
sheet metal of the refrigerant service valve with the
screws (3), and braze it to the refrigerant service valve.
(3) Braze the elbow (5) to the field-piping first, and then
braze it to the low-pressure twinning pipe kit (1).
(4) Braze the elbow (4) to the low-pressure pipe in the
middle.
Note
1. Exercise caution not to burn the cables while brazing the
pipes.
2. Before brazing pipes to the refrigerant service valve, place a
wet towel on the valve to keep its temperature from rising
above 120 ˚C [248˚F]
.
(5) Wrap the u-bend of the low-pressure twinning pipe kit
(1) with the pipe cover (7), and tie a band (C) around
it to keep it in place.

4. Insulation Cover Installation
Install the insulation cover on the twinning kit after brazing the pipes and twinning kit.
Insulate all refrigerant pipes. Insulate the high-pressure and low-pressure pipes separately, and pipes located inside the unit as well as
the outside. Use heat-resistant insulation material (Heat resistant : at least 120˚C [248˚F], Thickness: high-pressure = 10 mm [13/32 in.],
low-pressure = 20 mm [13/16 in.] ). Position the edges of the insulation cover and heat-resistant insulation material so as not to leave a
gap, and then wrap the exterior perimeter of the pipe joints and middle with tape (field-supplied).

5. Miscellaneous Notes
Secure the field-supplied pipes with a pipe cover and a cable tie in place to keep them from coming in contact with other pipes as
necessary.
Install the insulation cover so that the edges of the cover meet at the top.
