Mitsubishi Electric CMY-R100VBK 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:

WARNING
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.
2Choose the correct size pipe using the table below. Connect the field-
supplied pipe to the twinning kit for the sizes in the table that are marked
with an asterisk (*).
3If 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 pipes field-
supplied inside the outdoor unit.
The distributor on the low-pressure side must be placed in the outdoor unit
that has a larger capacity index of the two, regardless of the relative
positions of the outdoor units or their addresses.
If the distributor is placed in the outdoor unit that has a smaller capacity,
refrigerant will not be properly distributed and compressor failure may result.
( If outdoor units that have the same capacity are used in combination, the
distributor can be placed in either outdoor unit.)

(3) Routing the pipe through the bottom
(1) Braze item 7high-pressure pipe to the stop valve so that the
dimples on the pipe are parallel to the edge of the cutout hole.
Expand the end of the field-supplied pipes, and braze them
to item 7high-pressure pipe.
(2) Attach item 1low-pressure twinning kit to the sheet metal of the
control valve with item 3screw, and braze it to the control valve.
(3) Braze item 5or 6elbow pipe to the field-supplied pipe first,
and then braze it to item 1low-pressure twinning kit.
(4) Flare the field-supplied pipe end, and braze the pipe to the
low-pressure pipe in the middle.
(5) Wrap the pipe in front of item 1low-pressure twinning kit with item
9pipe cover, and attach compressor cables to item 9pipe cover with
item Mcable tie to keep them out of direct contact with the pipes.

(4) Routing the pipe through the front
(1) Braze item 8high-pressure pipe to the control valve.
(2) Attach item 1low-pressure twinning kit to the sheet metal of the
control valve with item 3screw, and braze it to the control valve.
(3) Braze item 5or 6elbow pipe to the field-supplied pipe first,
and then braze it to item 1 low-pressure twinning kit.
(4) Braze either item 4or 5elbow pipe to the low-pressure pipe in
the middle.
(5) Wrap the pipe in front of item 1low-pressure twinning kit with
item 9pipe cover, and attach compressor cables to item 9pipe
cover with item Mcable tie to keep them out of direct contact

(5) Slope of twinning pipes (high-pressure side only)
Make sure the slope of the twinning pipes are at an angle
within ±15˚to the horizontal plane.
If the slope exceeds the specified angle, the unit may be
damaged.

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.
(7) Pipe connection (high-pressure side)
Make sure pipes from the twinning pipe to the outdoor unit are sloped downwards.
(6) The length of the straight pipe between indoor units and the twinning pipe (high-pressure pipe)
Use the pipes supplied in the twinning kit, and make sure the section of the field-supplied pipe that connects to the twinning
pipe has at least 500 mm [19-11/16 in] of straight section. (The section of the field-supplied pipe that connects to the twinning
pipe must have at least 500 mm [19-11/16 in] of straight section.) If the straight section is less than 500 mm [19-11/16 in],
it may result in equipment damage.
