INSTALLATION MANUAL General Only a professional technician, who went through an appropriate training by the company, may install the air-conditioner. Installation must comply with the Company’s specs, according to the law of electricity, while using the Company’s standard components such as tubes, ducts, electric power cables and other necessary accessories.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Considerations for choosing installation location Relative positioning between units The outdoor unit must be installed as close as possible to the indoor unit, in order not to harm capacity. For determining the maximal distance allowed between them, see table No. 1 in paragraph 7.2.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Considerations in selecting location for installing the indoor unit Enable maximal air dispersion, to the largest possible distance, within space that must be air - conditioned. Enable free passage for the return air. Ensure appropriate drainage of condensing water, which may be created within the unit. Make sure that the roof is strong enough to carry the weight of the unit.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Installation of the indoor unit There are two typical indoor unit installations: Installing the unit with DNC return air panel, and lowering the ceiling to the unit’s height. 1. Lowered ceiling 2. Return air panel frame 3. Filter access panel Fig.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Hanging the indoor unit There are two options to hang the indoor unit: By means of a mounting plate. By means of mounting brackets. 4.1.1. Hanging the indoor unit by means of a mounting plate Select the location for the indoor unit while adhering to the instructions provided in paragraph 3.3.

Hanging the indoor unit by means of mounting brackets Select location for the indoor unit while adhering to instructions provided in paragraph 3.3. Select location for the unit’s mounting brackets. Mark the position of the hanging rods.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Installing DNC return air panel Carefully remove the entire return air panel from the packing. Dismantle the filter access panel by pressing the two buttons in a circular motion and releasing the hanging wires (see Fig. 9). Connect the frame to the unit using four screws and washers. After lowering the ceiling, the return air panel can be straightened according to ceiling lines or walls by releasing screws, moving frame and tightening the screws.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Fresh air supply (optional) Using a knife cut an opening in the plastic air inlet (see Fig. 10). Using a knife cut open the insulation in the fresh air opening connection (see Fig. 11). Install special adapter and tighten it with four screws. Fresh air adapter can be purchased through Company service centers.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Connecting the drainage tube It is recommended to prepare a drainage point with hard PVC 32 mm tube by a professional plumber, close to the indoor unit. To enable proper drainage of the condensation water, the passage of the drainage must be planned in advance with a down slope of at least 1%, without creating any bottleneck and without upwards bends (see Fig.
Furthermore, the package includes a set of adapters for flexible ducts that include: 8" adapter - 4 units (in DNC 955 model - 3 units) 12" adapter - one unit 12" to 10" adapter - one unit Installation instructions Select the necessary air openings and open them.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Installation of the outdoor unit The outdoor unit must be installed on a raised and leveled concrete slab, or on a metal rack, with a height above ground of 100 mm. Note: Make sure slotted rubber pads are installed under the outdoor unit supports, otherwise vibrations might occur, and might be transmitted, with noise, into the building.
INSTALLATION MANUAL Installation of interconnecting tubing between indoor and outdoor units General For routing the interconnecting tubing between the indoor and the outdoor units, prepare passage for a 60 mm PVC tube (see Fig. 18). Make sure the following: The passage tube must have a 10 degrees slant towards the outside, to prevent water from penetrating into the building.

INSTALLATION MANUAL Electrical and tubes installation Make sure that the electrical cable connecting between the indoor and the outdoor units is of the NYY type (triple insulation). Make sure and check that the cable is continuous and contains grounding wires. The electrical connection to the outdoor unit will be made by means of a quick connector provided with the unit.
INSTALLATION MANUAL 1PH units Customer is required to provide an appropriate main power supply, which must include: A time-delayed, C type, single-phase automatic circuit breaker, to be installed at the beginning of the main supply line, on the main connection panel. The capacity of the automatic circuit breaker can be determined according to the nameplate.
