  • Page 11 CAUTION (1) When linking the outdoor units in a network, disconnect the terminal extended from the short plug (on the outdoor main control PCB) from all outdoor units except any one of the outdoor units. (When shipping: In shorted condition.) For a system without link (no connection wiring between outdoor units), do not remove the short plug.
  • Page 12: For Stranded Wiring

    Loose wiring may cause the terminal to overheat or result in unit malfunction. A fire hazard may also occur. CAUTION Therefore, ensure that all wiring is tightly connected. When connecting each power wire to the terminal, follow the instructions on “How to connect wiring to the terminal” and fasten the wire securely with the fixing screw of the terminal board.
  • Page 13: How To Process Tubing

    5. HOW TO PROCESS TUBING Deburring Before After The liquid tubing side is connected by a flare nut, and the gas tubing side is connected by brazing. 5-1. Connecting the Refrigerant Tubing Use of the Flaring Method Many of conventional split system air conditioners employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes that run between indoor and outdoor units.
  • Page 14: Connecting Tubing Between Indoor And Outdoor Units

    Cautions During Brazing ● Replace air inside the tube with nitrogen gas to prevent copper oxide film from forming during the brazing process. (Oxygen, carbon dioxide and Freon are not acceptable.) ● Do not allow the tubing to get too hot during brazing. The nitrogen gas inside the tubing may overheat, causing refrigerant system valves to become damaged.
  • Page 15: Insulating The Refrigerant Tubing

    5-3. Insulating the Refrigerant Tubing Tubing Insulation Two tubes arranged together ● Thermal insulation must be applied to all units tubing, including Gas tubing Liquid tubing distribution joint (local supply). * For gas tubing, the insulation material must be heat resistant to 248°F (120°C) or above.
  • Page 16: Taping The Tubes

    5-4. Taping the Tubes (1) At this time, the refrigerant tubes (and electrical wiring if local codes permit) should be taped together with armoring tape in 1 bundle. To prevent condensation from overflowing the drain pan, keep the drain hose separate from the refrigerant tubing. (2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor unit Clamp to the top of the tubing where it enters the wall.
