D). Drain Piping
• Drain piping must have down-slope (1/50 to 1/100): be sure not to
provide up-and-down slope to prevent reversal flow.
• During drain piping connection, be careful not to exert extra force
on the drain port on the indoor unit.
• The outside diameter of the drain connection on the indoor unit is
32mm.
Piping material: Polyvinyl chloride pipe VP-25 and
pipe fittings
• Be sure to install heat insulation on the drain piping.
Heat insulation material: Polyethylene foam with thick-
ness more than 8 mm.
Drain test
The air conditioner uses a drain pump to drain water.
Use the following procedure to test the drain pump operation:
Feed water
Drain Pump
Drain pan
CAUTION : The supplied flexible drain
hose should not be curved, neither
screwed. The curved or screwed hose
may cause a leakage of water.
CAUTION:
After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows:
1) Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of
wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram posted on the inside of control box cover.
2) Provide a circuit breaker switch between power source and the unit.
3) The screws which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liable to come loose
from vibrations to which the unit is subjected during the course of transportation. Check them
and make sure that they are all tightly fastened. (If they are loose, it could give rise to burn-out
of the wires.)
4) Specification of power source
5) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
6) Be sure that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage
marked on the name plate.
7) Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power sources specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness.)
8) Never fail to equip a leakage breaker where it is wet or moist.
9) The following troubles would be caused by voltage drop-down.
• Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point, fuse breaking, disturbance by the nor-
mal function of an overload protection device.
• Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.

• Connect the main drain pipe to the exterior
and leave it provisionally until the test
comes to an end.
• Feed water to the flexible drain hose and
check the piping for leakage.
• Be sure to check the drain pump for normal
operating and noise when electrical wiring
is complete.
• When the test is complete, connect the
flexible drain hose to the drain port on the
indoor unit.
