Page 6: Location And Preparation Of Units
Location and Preparation of Units Select an appropriate position that allows every corners of the room to be uniformly air conditioned and where it is easy to route the refrigerant tubing. Ensure that the floor or ceiling construction is sufficient to fully support the weight of the indoor unit. - Page 7 Location and Preparation of Units Figure 4. Min. 120 cm. Min. 20 cm. Do not install unit in direct sunlight or near other heat sources as this may affect performance. Do not allow outside air to directly enter unit or condensate may form at the unit’s discharge.

Page 11: Connection Of Refrigerant Tubing
Connection of Refrigerant Tubing WARNING Hazard of Explosion and Deadly Gases! Never solder, braze or weld on refrigerant lines or any unit components that are above atmospheric pressure or where refrigerant may be present. Always remove refrigerant by following the guidelines established by the EPA Federal Clean Air Act or other state or local codes as appropriate. -

- Page 14 Connection of Refrigerant Tubing Connecting the unit with brazing procedure (Only for MCX/MWX 042-060) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 20-30 cm. longer than the tube length you estimate. Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a tube reamer (Figure 12).
- Page 15 Connection of Refrigerant Tubing Insulate the entire gas line. Do not allow uninsulated liquid line to come in direct contact with bare gas line. Precautions should be taken to avoid heat damage to the pressure tap valve core during brazing. It is recommended that a wet rag be wrapped around the valve body. It is recommended to use braze shield, soak pad in water and place over suction and liquid lines to protect unit finish.

Page 16: Condensate Drain Piping
Condensate Drain Piping – The drain hose should run straight down the wall to a level where the runoff will not stain the wall. – There should be no traps. Avoid putting the end of the hose in water. – To conveniently drain the system, the drain hose must slant downward, with a slope of at least 1: 50 to prevent leakage. -
Page 17: Electrical Installation
Electrical Installation All wiring and grounding must comply with local electrical codes. WARNING Grounding Required! Follow proper local and state electrical code on requirements for grounding. Failure to follow code could result in death or serious injury. WARNING Hazardous Voltage! Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. -
