pouring water in drain pan
• After the electric work has finished, pour water
during COOL mode operation.
• If the electric work has not yet finished, pull out the
float switch connector (CN34: Red) from the
electrical control box, and check draining by plugging
the single phase 208 / 230 V power to the terminal
blocks L1 and L2.
If doing so, the drain pump motor operates.
(Never apply 208 / 230 V to U1, U2, (A), (B)
otherwise a trouble of P.C. board occurs.)
• Test water drain while checking the operation sound
of the drain pump motor.
(If the operation sound changes from continuous
sound to intermittent sound, water is normally
drained.)
After the check, the drain pump motor runs,
connecting the float switch connector.
(In case of check by pulling out the float switch
connector, be sure to return the connector to the
original position.)

 Perform heat insulating
• As shown in the figure, cover the flexible hose and
hose band with the attached heat insulator up to the
bottom of the indoor unit without gap.
• Cover the drain pipe seamlessly with a heat insulator
to be procured locally so that it overlaps with the
attached heat insulator of the drain connecting
, section.
Wrap the attached heat insulator seamlessly from
the surface of the indoor unit.

Refrigerant piping and evacuation

 Refrigerant piping
1. Use copper pipe with 0.03" (0.8 mm) or more
thickness.
2. Flare nut and flare works are also different from
those of the conventional refrigerant.
Take out the flare nut attached to the main unit of the
air conditioner, and use it.
REQUIREMENT
When the refrigerant pipe is long, provide support
brackets at intervals of 8.2' - 9.8' (2.5 - 3 m) to clamp the
refrigerant pipe. Otherwise, abnormal sound may be
generated.
CAUTION CAUTION
IMPORTANT 4 POINTS FOR PIPING WORK
1. Remove dust and moisture from the inside of the
connecting pipes.
2. Tight connection (between pipes and unit)
3. Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes by using
VACUUM PUMP.
4. Check the gas leakage. (Connected points)

 Permissible piping length and
height difference
They vary according to the outdoor unit.
For details, refer to the Installation Manual attached to
the outdoor unit.
Flaring
• Cut the pipe with a pipe cutter.
Remove burrs completely.
Remaining burrs may cause gas leakage.
• Insert a flare nut into the pipe, and flare the pipe.
As the flaring sizes of R410A differ from those of
refrigerant R22, the flare tools newly manufactured
for R410A are recommended.
However, the conventional
tools can be used by adjusting
projection margin of the
copper pipe.

* In case of flaring for R410A with the
conventional flare tool, pull it out approx.
0.02" (0.5 mm) more than that for R22 to
adjust to the specified flare size.
The copper pipe gauge is useful for
adjusting projection margin size.
