WIRING CONNECTION Precautions when laying power wiring Use round pressure terminals for connections to the power terminal block. Power wire Round pressure terminal When none are available, follow the instructions below. - Do not connect wiring of different thicknesses to the power terminal block. (Slack in the power wiring may cause abnormal heat.) - When connecting wiring which is the same thickness, do as shown in the figure below.
WIRING CONNECTION Connecting the cable to Outdoor Unit Remove the side panel for wiring connection. Use the cord clamp to fix the cable. Earthing work - Connect the cable of diameter more to the earthing terminal provided in the control box and do earthing.
CONNECTING PIPES CONNECTING PIPES Preparation of piping Main cause of gas leakage is defect in flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work in the following procedure. Cut the pipes and the cable - Use the piping kit accessory or the pipes pur- chased locally.
CONNECTING PIPES Connecting the pipes to the Forming the piping outdoor unit Form the piping by wrapping the connecting portion of the indoor unit with insulation mate- Align the center of the piping and sufficiently rial and secure it with two kinds of vinyl tape. tighten the flare nut by hand.
CONNECTING PIPES Plumbing materials and storage methods Pipe must be able to obtain the specified thickness and should be used with low impurities. Also when handling storage, pipe must be careful to prevent a fracture, deformity and wound. Should not be mixed with contaminations such as dust, moisture. Refrigerant piping on three principles Drying Cleanliness...
CONNECTING PIPES Nitrogen substitution method Welding, as when heating without nitrogen substitution a large amount of the oxide film is formed on the internal piping. The oxide film is a caused by clogging EEV, capillary, oil hole of accumulator and suction hole of oil pump in compressor.
LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant CAUTION system have undesirable effects as indicated below. To avoid nitrogen entering the refrigerant - Pressure in the system rises. system in a liquid state, the top of the cylinder must be higher than its bottom - Operating current rises.
LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION Evacuation - Replace the valve caps at both gas and liquid side service valves and fasten them tight. - Connect the charge hose end described in This completes air purging with a vacuum pump. the preceding steps to the vacuum pump to The air conditioner is now ready to test run.
TEST RUNNING TEST RUNNING Precautions In Test Running - The initial power supply must provide at least 90 % of the rated voltage. Otherwise, the air conditioner should not be operated. CAUTION For test run, carry out the cooling operation firstly even during heating season. If heating operation is carried out firstly, it leads to the trouble of compressor.

TEST RUNNING CAUTION After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows: Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram pasted on the inside of control box cover.
INSTALLATION GUIDE AT THE SEASIDE INSTALLATION GUIDE AT THE SEASIDE In case, to install the outdoor unit on the CAUTION seaside, set up a windbreak not to be exposed to the sea wind. • Air conditioners should not be installed in areas where corrosive gases, such as acid or alkaline gas, are produced.
