Baffle Plate For The Outdoor Unit - Sanyo C1872 Technical & Service Manual

2-3. Baffle Plate for the Outdoor Unit

(CLxx models only)
NOTE
It is recommended to use baffle plates for models
CL1872 and CL2472. The baffle plates are not normally
required for the other models.
When the outdoor unit is installed in a position exposed
to strong wind (such as seasonal winds with low air tem-
perature in winter), baffle plates must be installed on the
outdoor unit. (Fig. 5f)
This unit is designed so that the fan of the outdoor unit
runs at low speed when the air conditioner is operated at
low outdoor air temperatures. When the outdoor unit is
exposed to strong wind, the system pressure drops
because of the freeze protector.
Install a pair of windbaffle plates at the front and back of
the outdoor unit if it will be subject to strong wind during
the winter. (Figs. 5f, 5g, 5h, 5i, and 5j)
