NSTALLATION OF THE INDOOR UNIT

Selecting an installation location

I
NOTE Make sure to provide for adequate measures in
order to prevent that the indoor unit should be
used as a shelter by small animals.
I
Small animals making contact with electrical parts
can cause malfunctions, smoke or fire. Please
instruct the customer to keep the area around the
unit clean.
The unit is to be placed in an indoor location that meets the following
requirements:
I
The installation location is frost-free.
I
The space around the unit is adequate for servicing.
figure 2).
I
The space around the unit allows for sufficient air circulation.
I
There is a provision for pressure relief valve blow-off.
I
There is no danger of fire due to leakage of inflammable gas.
I
The equipment is not intended for use in a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
I
All piping lengths and distances have been taken into
consideration.
Requirement
Maximum allowable refrigerant piping length between
outdoor unit and indoor unit
Minimum required refrigerant piping length between
outdoor unit and indoor unit
Maximum allowable height difference between
outdoor unit and indoor unit
Maximum allowable distance between the domestic
hot water tank and the indoor unit (only for
installations with domestic hot water tank).
NOTE If the installation is equipped with a domestic hot water
tank (optional), please refer to the domestic hot water
tank installation manual.
I
Do not install the unit in places often used as workplace.
In case of construction works (e.g. grinding works) where a lot of
dust is created, the unit must be shut down and covered.
I
Do not install the unit in places with high humidity (e.g.
bathroom) (maximum humidity (RH)=85%).
I
If the sound is measured under actual installation conditions, the
measured value will be higher than the sound pressure level
mentioned in the "Unit specifications" on page 38
environmental noise and sound reflections. Choose the
installation location carefully and do not install in a sound
sensitive environment (e.g. living room, bedroom, ...).
I
Take care that in the event of a water leak, water can not cause
any damage to the installation space and surroundings.
I
The foundation must be strong enough to support the weight of
the unit (or unit and optional domestic hot water tank completely
filled with water in case the optional domestic hot water tank is
mounted on top of the unit).
The floor is flat to prevent vibrations and noise generation and to
have sufficient stability especially when the optional domestic
hot water tank is mounted on top of the unit.
I
Do not place any objects or equipment on top of the unit (top
plate).
I
Do not climb, sit or stand on top of the unit.
I
Be sure that sufficient precautions are taken, in accordance with
relevant local and national regulations, in case of refrigerant
leakage.

Knock-out holes are foreseen at both sides of the
unit. Pay attention to knock out the correct holes
depending on your installation location.
I
Refrigerant piping and water piping must go
through different knock-out holes.
I
The low voltage electrical wiring (LV) and the high
voltage electrical wiring plus the power supply
wiring (HV+PS) must always enter the unit
separate through the 2 upper knock-out holes at
the left side of the unit (see
