5 - Installation
OK
• Outdoor unit installation
•Location of the indoor unit
The unit should be installed in such a way that airflow around the
room is not hindered in any way. If possible, install the cassette
unit in the centre of the room (leave at least one meter of clea-
rance on all sides of the unit).
Air diffusion will be less efficient if the ceiling is at a height grea-
ter than 3 metres.
The cassette unit is fixed in place with two brackets and four
threaded rods (see diagram below).
ø8
630
The two brackets must be installed perfectly level.
When the cassette is in place on its supports, connect the refri- geration lines, the electrical power supply and the condensate drainage line.
False ceiling

TIMER : Timer mode.
Emergency operation : Enables the unit to
be used without the remote control.In this
case, set the selector to "COOL" or "HEAT"
(MKH only) depending on the operating mode
required. The "OPE" LED flashes continuous-
ly when the unit is operated this way, and the
remote control is forced off-line. The tempera-
ture setpoint is set at 24°C both in the heating
and cooling mode. To revert to normal remote
control operation, set the selector to the
"NOR" position.

Main electrical power supply
Optional electric heating coil AKR01A (2kW) :
MKC (cooling only) : The heating element, instal-
led around the coil like a belt, is activated by a
relay located on the control board. Installation of
this option requires no particular modification of
the equipment.
MKH (heat pump) :The heating element is acti -
vated by a relay located on the control board.
Installation requires a separate power supply
with 3 x 1,5 mm2conductors for the 2 kW heating
element.
In this instance, the heating element serves as a
backup heating source (1str stage : COMPRESSOR -
2nd stage : ELECTRIC HEATER ) and is regulated
according to the temperature difference between
the setpoint and the return air temperature.
The heater element is supplied with an automa-
tic reset control thermostat and a manually reset
high temperature safety device.

Condensate drainage
Condensates collected in the drain pan are piped to a tank fitted
with :
- a drainage pump, with a pumping height of 0.6 m measured
from the base of the cassette unit (see diagram opposite),
-a safety float switch that stops the entire unit in the event of a
problem with condensate drainage (pump failure, obstructed
drainage piping...).
The condensate drainage line must be insulated to prevent dro-
plets of condensation from dripping on the false ceiling.
Connect the drainage tube (ø int. 12 mm) coming from the pump
to a "P.V.C." drainage line (ø 32 mm mini). It is advisable to install
a U bend in the drainage line.Make sure that all piping joints are
leak tested.
Drainage piping should be installed with a 1% downward slope
(1cm per metre) without any rises.
6 - Condensate drainage
Verification of condensate water drainage:
Fill the drain pan and observe evacuation.
Fill the drain pan manually with water to check correct
evacuation.

7 - Refrigerant piping connections
Make piping runs as short as possible and avoid all
unnecessary changes in direction or elevation.
To prevent heat loss, the two lines must be insulated
separately.
Use an appropriate bending tool to form curves and avoid
flattening the refrigerant tubes.
Fix piping with pipe clamps and make sure that any eventual
pipe vibrations cannot be transmitted to the building structure.
Use refrigeration quality piping only with an operating pres-
sure rating of at least 30 bars. Never use ordinary «plum-
bing» quality piping : you MUST use special de-oxidised,
dehydrated, refrigerant quality copper piping.
Pipe lengths
• Maximum piping lengths
Note: Where the difference in elevation between the indoor
unit and the outdoor unit is greater than 5 metres, install
an oil trap every 5 metres.
The suction line must have a 2% gradient up to the compressor
on horizontal sections.
Where piping lengths are unusually long and include a large
number of oil traps, it may be necessary to adjust the compres-
sor oil charge.
D
L

•Refrigerant charge to be added per extra metre of
piping length when more than 7.5 m.
Refrigerant piping connections (FLARE connections)
To avoid alteration of unit capacities, make sure that piping
lengths and changes in elevation are kept to a strict minimum.
Before connecting the refrigerant lines, follow the procedures
below (if pre-charged connection lines are not supplied) :
-Select copper pipe diameters according to the size of unit to
be installed.
-Install the refrigeration lines, making sure that no foreign
bodies get inside the piping.
-Install the flare connectors and flare the ends of the pipes.
-Evacuate the piping. This operation, which should last at
least 15 minutes or even longer if there are large piping
lengths and changes in elevation, should be followed by a
leak test. To this effect, when the piping has been evacua-
ted, close the pressure guage tap, note the value on the
guage, then wait for 15 minutes. If the needle moves, there
is a leak in the system. Make the necessary adjustments or
repairs and repeat this procedure until the needle no longer
moves.
-Open the service valves and top up the refrigerant charge if
necessary.

Directing the airflow
With direct air discharge, pay particular attention to the direction
in which the air is discharged.
•Air deflectors (ref a)
These deflectors should be directed so that a maximum volume is
given to the envelope of the airstream. Below, the diagram shows
the optimum position required to acheive the best possible airflow
performance.
• Integral diffuser
In the cooling mode, cool air is discharged horizontally just below
the ceiling, ensuring even air distribution in the room due to the
«coanda» effect without causing drafts.
In the heating mode, airflow can be directed so as to prevent stag-
nation at certain places in the room (stratification of hot air).

YES YES NO
Depending on the layout of the conditioned space, 1 or 2 dampers may be closed. This is necessary for air discharge through a
discharge satellite into an adjacent room or when the cassette unit is installed too close to a wall.
Operation in heating mode only : Although the unit has an anti-stratification
function, it may be necessary to offset the return air sensor setpoint, in cases
where ceilings are particularly high for example. This can be done with the two
microswitches on the control board. Setpoint offsetting is only effective in the
heating mode and has no effect on the cooling mode.

Unit Capacity
Total cooling capacity can be determined by using correction fac-
tors C1, C2 and C3.
Given cooling capacity = Cooling capacity at standard rating
conditions x C1 x C2 x C3.
C1 = Capacity correction factor for temperature
C2 = Capacity correction for piping length
C3 = Capacity correction for indoor unit fan speed
Capacity correction factor for temperature (C1)
*Conditions applicable for the "Low ambient line" / +19°C for the "Export
line".
Correction factors (C1) determine the instantaneous capacity (which
does not take account of defrosting on heat pump units). These
capacities may vary slightly, depending on the size of the unit.
