  • Page 5: How Air Conditioners Work

    HOW AIR CONDITIONERS WORK COOLING MODE The compressor (6) in the external unit compresses the refrigerant into a high-temperature, high- pressure gas. When this gas flows along the cooling fins of the condenser (7), heat is exuded and the gas condenses into a liquid, which is then led to the evaporator (1) in the indoor unit. The liquid expands into a gas at a low temperature and low pressure.

  • Page 29: Information Regarding The Installation Of The Indoor Unit

    INFORMATION REGARDING THE INSTALLATION OF THE INDOOR UNIT INSTALLING THE REAR PANEL 1. Always mount the rear panel horizontally. Due to the water tray within the indoor unit we would advise that the outlet of the water tray should be fractionally lower when installing as this will aid drainage of the condensate collected.
  • Page 30: Installation Of The Outdoor Unit

    Notes: 1. The height of the installed unit is recommended to be > 200 cm. Either the indoor unit or the outdoor unit can be higher, but the height difference must comply with a max. 5 metres level difference. 3. Try to avoid bending the pipes as much as possible so as to avoid possible negative impacts upon the performances of the unit.
  • Page 31 STANDARD PIPELINES CONNECTION & AIR PURGING No dust or any other particles, air or moisture should be allowed to enter the air conditioning system. Careful attention should be paid when pipeline connection for outdoor unit is made. Try to avoid repeated curves as much as possible; otherwise damage to the copper pipes may occur. Suitable wrenches should be used when the pipeline connection is done so as to ensure appropriate torque (refer to following torque table).
  • Page 32: Install The Water Drainage Pipe

    AIR PURGING WITH VACUUM PUMP Please note this should be completed for each refrigerant circuit (each indoor unit) Check that pipelines connection have been properly connected, remove the charging port cap, and connect the manifold gauge and the vacuum pump to the charging valve using service hoses as shown Open the valve on the low-pressure side of the manifold gauge, then run the vacuum pump.
  • Page 33 NOTES: The copper pipe used in the refrigeration lines are very soft, high pressure copper and prone to get damaged if not handled correctly. Try to avoid bending or stretching the pipework. Always ensure the pipes are protected when running through the wall to help prevent damage to the pipes.
