■Installation Dx-valve kit
By the refrigerant circuit diagram, braze the sensor holder of TC1, TC2, TCJ of the valve kit and the accessory.
Refer to the below table for the pipe diameter and the pipe length to use.

Dx-valve kit and connection of the pipe
• Be sure to cool the strainer and PMV valve body using a wet cloth so that the body temperature does not exceed
248°F (120°C) while brazing.
• For the connection pipe, it may vibrate during the defrosting operation. Carry out the installation work so that the
connection pipe does not break after a long-term use.
Sensor holders
• To ensure reliable operation, all Sensor holders must be fitted by brazing.
• Be careful of that the brazing material does not enter into the sensor holder when attaching the TC1, TC2 and TCJ
sensor holder.
TC1 sensor
• Install it in the collecting part of the gas header.
TC2 sensor
• Install it in the between the liquid pipe distributor and the PMV.
(TC2 sensor is attached to the refrigerant cycle of AHU.)
TCJ sensor
• Install it in the pass where the temperature of the capillary tube is the lowest.
• Keep a distance of 2" (50 mm) ± 1" (25 mm) from the end plate.
TA, TF sensor
• Install the TA, TF sensor where the better of air flow.
• The TA sensor must be located in the Return Air position, prior to mixing with any fresh air.
• Install the TF sensor in a place where the discharge air temperature is uniform.
If the TC1, TC2, or TCJ sensor are easy to be subjected to the surrounding thermal effect, cover them with the heat
insulator material, and fix them with the fixing band.
If the lead wires of various sensors are left over, protect them from the effects of external force, heat, and water, and
fix them with a fixing band. If the lead wires of various sensors do not reach, use the Optional Sensor (32' 10" (10 m)
cable) TCB-IFDES1001P-UL.

Braze the TC1 sensor on the location of the lower side
45° to detect the stable temperature.
After brazing the pipe, wrap the attached heat insulator and
fix it with a tape.
