When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing
WARNING
• When performing piping work do
not mix air except for specified
refrigerant (R410A) in refrigeration
cycle. It causes capacity down,
and risk of explosion and injury
due to high tension inside the
refrigerant cycle.
•
•
Refrigerant gas leakage may
cause fire.
Do not add or replace refrigerant
other than specified type. It may
cause product damage, burst and
injury, etc.
•
•
•
• 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.
•
•
Ventilate 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.
Keep all tubing runs as short as
possible.
Use the flare method for connecting
tubing.
Check carefully for leaks before
starting the test run.
Do not leak refrigerant while piping
work for an installation or
re-installation, and while repairing
refrigeration parts.
Handle liquid refrigerant carefully as it
may cause frostbite.
When Transporting
Be careful when picking up and moving
the indoor and outdoor units. Get a
partner to help, and bend your knees
when lifting to reduce strain on your back.
Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on the
air conditioner can cut your fingers.
When Installing…
Select an installation location which is
rigid and strong enough to support or
hold the unit, and select a location for
easy maintenance.
…In a Room
Properly insulate any tubing run inside a
room to prevent “sweating” that can
cause dripping and water damage to
walls and floors.
CAUTION
Keep the fire alarm and the air
outlet at least 1.5 m away from the
unit.
…In Moist or Uneven Locations
Use a raised concrete pad or concrete
blocks to provide a solid, level foundation
for the outdoor unit. This prevents water
damage and abnormal vibration.

2. The standards for minimum room volume are as follows.
(1) No partition (shaded portion)
(2) When there is an effective opening with the adjacent room
for ventilation of leaking refrigerant gas (opening without
a door, or an opening 0.15% or larger than the respective
floor spaces at the top or bottom of the door).
(3) If an indoor unit is installed in each partitioned room and
the refrigerant tubing is interconnected, the smallest room
of course becomes the object. But when mechanical
ventilation is installed interlocked with a gas leakage
detector in the smallest room where the density limit is
exceeded, the volume of the next smallest room becomes
the object.
3. The minimum indoor floor space compared with the
amount of refrigerant is roughly as follows: (When the
ceiling is 2.7 m high)

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).
In a room where the density may exceed the limit, create an
opening with adjacent rooms, or install mechanical ventilation
combined with a gas leak detection device. The density is as
given below.
Total amount of refrigerant (kg)
Min. volume of the indoor unit installed room (m3)
< Density limit (kg/m3)
The density limit of refrigerant which is used in multi air
conditioners is 0.3 kg/m3(ISO 5149).
NOTE
1. If there are 2 or more refrigerating systems in a single
refrigerating device, the amount of refrigerant should be as
charged in each independent device.
For the amount of charge in this example:
The possible amount of leaked refrigerant gas in rooms A,
B and C is 10 kg.
The possible amount of leaked refrigerant gas in rooms D,
E and F is 15 kg.

CAUTION
•Do not touch the air inlet or the
sharp aluminum fins of the
outdoor unit. You may get
injured.
• Ventilate any enclosed areas
when installing or testing the
refrigeration system. Escaped
refrigerant gas, on contact with
fire or heat, can produce
dangerously toxic gas.
• Confirm after installation that no
refrigerant gas is leaking. If the
gas comes in contact with a
burning stove, gas water heater,
electric room heater or other heat
source, it can cause the
generation of poisonous gas.
Others
CAUTION
•
•
•
Do not touch the air inlet or
the sharp aluminum fins of
the outdoor unit. You may
get injured.
Do not sit or step on the unit,
you may fall down accidentally.
Do not stick any object into
the FAN CASE.
You may be injured and the
unit may be damaged.
When Servicing
•
•
•
Turn the power OFF at the main
power box (mains), wait at least
10 minutes until it is discharged,
then open the unit to check or repair
electrical parts and wiring.
Keep your fingers and clothing away
from any moving parts.
Clean up the site after you finish,
remembering to check that no metal
scraps or bits of wiring have been left
inside the unit being serviced.
WARNING
•
•
Do not clean inside the indoor and
outdoor units by users. Engage
authorized dealer or specialist for
cleaning.
•This product must not be modified
or disassembled under any
circumstances. Modified or
disassembled unit may cause fire,
electric shock or injury.

Precautions for Installation Using New Refrigerant
1. Care regarding tubing
1-1. Process tubing
●Material: Use C1220 phosphorous deoxidized copper specified in JIS H3300 “Copper and Copper Alloy Seamless Pipes and Tubes.”
For tubes of ø22.22 or larger, use C1220 T-1/2H material or H material, and do not bend the tubes.
●Tubing size: Be sure to use the sizes indicated in the table below.
●Use a tube cutter when cutting the tubing, and be sure to remove any flash. This also applies to distribution joints (optional).
●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.
Unit: mm

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.

Vacuum pump Yes Yes Use a conventional vacuum pump if it is equipped
with a check valve. If it has no check valve,
purchase and attach a vacuum pump adapter.
Leak detector Yes No Leak detectors for CFC and HCFC that react to
chlorine do not function because R410A contains
no chlorine. Leak detectors for HFC134a can be
used for R410A.

Final Check
Be sure to check before operation.
Final check must be done under the conditions of inter-outdoor unit control wiring
connected to the centralized control system and the resistor between conductors
must be measured by a Megger. Check if it is showing between 30Ω and 120Ω.
If the resistance value is out of range, check adjustment of the termination resistor again.
Even if it is out of range, the problem is caused by wiring.
• Is the wiring connection properly completed?
• Are there any scratches or deterioration on the coverage?
Measure between conductors and also between wiring and ground by 500V Megger
insulation resistance tester. Make sure the Megger is showing more than 100MΩ.
When measuring, remove both ends of the wiring from the terminal board.
If not removed, it will be damaged. If it is less than 100MΩ, a new wiring connection
should be made.
