6. Heat Insulation and pipings

HEAT INSULATION

1. Use the heat insulation material for the refrigerant piping which has an excellent heat-resistance (over
120°C).
2. Precautions in high humidity circumstance:
This air conditioner has been tested according to
the "KS Standard Conditions with Mist" and
confirmed that there is not any default. However, if it
is operated for a long time in high humid
atmosphere (dew point temperature: more than
23°C), water drops are liable to fall. In this case,
add heat insulation material according to the
following procedure:
• Heat insulation material to be prepared... Adiabatic glass wool with thickness 10 to 20mm.
• Stick glass wool on all air conditioners that are located in ceiling atmosphere.
• In addition to the normal heat insulation (thickness: more than 8mm) for refrigerant piping (gas piping: thick
piping) and drain piping, add further 10mm to 30mm thickness material.
FORM THE PIPINGS
1. Wrap the connecting portion of indoor unit with
the Insulation material and secure it with two
Plastic Bands. (for the right pipings)
• If you want to connect an additional drain hose,
the end of the drain-outlet should be kept at a
distance from the ground. (Do not dip it into
water, and fix it on the wall to avoid swinging in
the wind.)
In case of the Outdoor unit being installed
below position of the Indoor unit.
2. Tape the Pipings, drain hose and Connecting
Cable from bottom to top.
3. Form the pipings gathered by taping along the
exterior wall and fix it to the wall by saddle or
equivalent.
