(iv) Refrigerant pipe Caution ¡ Use the new refrigerant pipe. When re-using the existing pipe system for R22 or R407C, pay attention to the following items. • Change the flare nuts with the attached ones (JIS category 2), and reprocess the flare parts. • Do not use thin-walled pipes. ¡ Use phosphorus deoxidized copper alloy seamless pipe (C1220T specified in JIS H3300) for refrigeration pipe installation. In addition, make sure there is no damage both inside and outside of the pipe, and no harmful substances such as sulfur, oxide, dust or a contaminant stuck on the pipes. ¡ Do not use any refrigerant other than R410A. Using other refrigerant except R410A (R22 etc.) may degrade inside refrigeration oil. And air getting into refrigeration circuit may cause over-pressure and resultant it may result in bursting, etc. ¡ Store the copper pipes indoors and seal the both end of them until they are brazed in order to avoid any dust, dirt or water getting into pipe. Otherwise it will cause degradation of refrigeration oil and compressor breakdown, etc. ¡ Use special tools for R410 refrigerant. Work procedure ① Remove the flare nut and blind flanges on the pipe of the indoor unit. ❈ Make sure to loosen the flare nut with holding the nut on pipe side with a spanner and giving torque to the nut with another spanner in order to avoid unexpected stress to the copper pipe, and then remove them. (Gas may come out at this time, but it is not abnormal.) ¡ Pay attention whether the flare nut pops out. (as the indoor unit is sometimes pressured.) ② Make a flare on liquid pipe and gas pipe, and connect the refrigeration pipes on the indoor unit. ❈...
Page 57
(v) Drain pipe Caution ¡ Install the drain pipe according to the installation manual in order to drain properly. Imperfection in draining may cause flood indoors and wetting the household goods, etc. ¡ Do not put the drain pipe directly into the ditch where toxic gas such as sulfur, the other harmful and inflammable gas is generated. Toxic gas would flow into the room and it would cause serious damage to user’s health and safety (some poisoning or deficiency of oxygen). In addition, it may cause corrosion of heat exchanger and bad smell. ¡ Connect the pipe securely to avoid water leakage from the joint. ¡ Insulate the pipe properly to avoid condensation drop. ¡ Check if the water can flow out properly from both the drain outlet on the indoor unit and the end of the drain pipe after installation. ¡ Make sure to make descending slope of greater than 1/100 and do not make up-down bend and/or trap in the midway. In addition, do not put air vent on the drain pipe. Check if water is drained out properly from the pipe during commissioning. Also, keep sufficient space for inspection and maintenance. Work procedure ① Insert the supplied drain hose (the end made of soft PVC) to the step of the drain socket on the indoor unit and fix it securely with the clamp. Attach the hose clamp to the drain hose around 10mm from the end. ¡ Do not apply adhesives on this end. pipe cover (big) Joint for VP-20 (For insulation) Fasten the screw securely (Prepare on site) (Accessory) Hose clamp Drain hose...
④ Insulate the drain pipe. ¡ Be sure to insulate the drain socket and rigid PVC pipe installed indoors otherwise it may cause dew condensation and water leakage. ❈ After drainage test implementation, cover the drain socket part with pipe cover (small size), then use the pipe cover (big size) to cover the pipe cover (small size), clamps and part of the drain hose, and fix and wrap it with tapes to wrap and make joint part gapless. Drain up ¡ The position for drain pipe outlet can be raised up to 700mm above the ceiling. Use elbows for installation to avoid obstacles inside ceiling. If the horizontal drain pipe is too long before vertical pipe, the backflow of water will increase when the unit is stopped, and it may cause overflow of water from the drain pan on the indoor unit. In order to avoid overflow, keep the horizontal pipe length and offset of the pipe within the limit shown in the figure below. 100 or less 295 to 325mm Drain hose Joint for VP-20...

Bad example of duct work ① If a duct is not provided at the suction side but it is substituted with the space over the ceiling, humidity in the space will increase by the influence of capacity of ventilation fan, strength of wind blowing against the out door air louver, weather (rainy day) and others. a) Moisture in air is likely to condense over the external plates of the unit and to drip on the ceiling. Unit should be operated under the conditions as listed in the above table and within the limitation of wind volume. When the building is a concrete structure, especially immediately after the construction, humidity tends to rise even if the space over the ceiling is not substituted in place of a duct. In such occasion, it is necessary to insulate the entire unit with glass wool (25mm). (Use a wire net or equivalent to hold the glass wool in place.) b) It may run out the allowable limit of unit operation (Example: When outdoor air temperature is 35˚C DB, suction air temperature is 27˚C WB) and it could result in such troubles as compressor overload, etc. c) There is a possibility that the blow air volume may exceed the allowable range of operation due to the capacity of ventilation fan or strength of wind blowing against external air louver so that drainage from be heat exchanger may fall to reach the drain pan but leak outside (Example: drip on to the ceiling) with consequential water leakage in the room. ② If vibration damping is not conducted between the unit and the duct, and between the unit and the slab, vibration will be transmitted to the duct and vibration noise may occur. Also, vibration may be transmitted from the unit to the slab. Vibration damping must be performed. Bad example of duct work Louver to outdoor air For ventilation (v) Refrigerant pipe Caution ① Use the new refrigerant pipe. When re-using the existing pipe system for R22 or R407C, pay attention to the following items. • Change the flare nuts with the attached ones (JIS category 2), and reprocess the flare parts.
Page 89
Work procedure ① Remove the flare nut and blind flanges on the pipe of the indoor unit. * Make sure to loosen the flare nut with holding the nut on pipe side with a spanner and giving torque to the nut with another spanner in order to avoid unexpected stress to the copper pipe, and then remove them. (Gas may come out at this time, but it is not abnormal.) ¡ Pay attention whether the flare nut pops out. (as the indoor unit is sometimes pressured.) ② Make a flare on liquid pipe and gas pipe, and connect the refrigeration pipes on the indoor unit. * Bend the pipe with as big radius as possible and do not bend the pipe repeatedly. In addition, do not twist and crush the pipes. * Do a flare connection as follows: a) Make sure to loosen the flare nut with holding the nut on pipe side with a spanner and giving torque to the nut with another spanner in order to avoid unexpected stress to the copper pipe, and then remove them. b) When fastening the flare nut, align the refrigeration pipe with the center of flare nut, screw the nut for 3-4 times by hand and then tighten it by spanner with the specified torque mentioned in the table below. Make sure to hold the pipe on the indoor unit securely by a spanner when tightening the nut in order to avoid unexpected stress on the copper pipe. ③ Cover the flare connection part of the indoor unit with attached insulation material after a gas leakage inspection, and tighten both ends with attached straps. ¡ Make sure to insulate both gas pipes and liquid pipes completely. * Incomplete insulation may cause dew condensation or water dropping. ④ Refrigerant is charged in the outdoor unit. As for the additional refrigerant charge for the indoor unit and piping, refer to the installation manual attached to the outdoor unit.

② Prepare a joint for connecting VP-20 pipe, adhere and connect the joint to the drain hose (the end made of rigid PVC), and adhere and connect VP-20 pipe (prepare on site). * As for drain pipe, apply VP-20 made of rigid PVC which is on the market. a) Make sure that the adhesive will not get into the supplied drain hose. It may cause the flexible part broken after the adhesive is dried up and gets rigid. b) The flexible drain hose is intended to absorb a small difference at installation of the unit or drain pipes. Do not bend or make an excess offset on the drain hose as shown in the picture. Bend or excess offset will cause drain leakage. Over 20mm ③ Make sure to make descending slope of greater than 1/100 and do not make up-down bend and/or trap in the midway. a) Pay attention not to give stress on the pipe on the indoor unit side, and support and fix the pipe as close place to the unit as possible when connecting the drain pipe. b) Do not set up air vent. Supporting metal 1.5m~2m Trapped air will No bump generate noises.

Over 20mm (d) When constructing drain piping for several units, position the common pope about 100mm below the drain outlet of each unit as shown in the sketch. Use VP-30 (11/4") or thicker pipe for this purpose. (e) Be sure to provide heat insulation to hard PVC pipes of indoor placement. (f) Do not ever provide an air vent. (g) You can elevate the drain outlet up to 600mm from the indoor unit's lower face. When an obstacle exists in the ceiling space, elevate the piping to avoid the obstacle using an elbow or corresponding gadget. When doing this, if the stretch for the needed height is higher than 600mm, the back-flow quantity of drain at the event of interruption of the operation gets too much and it may cause overflow at the drain pan. Therefore, make the height of the drain pipe within the distance given in the sketch below. (h) Avoid positioning the drain piping outlet at a place where generation of odor may be stimulated. Do not lead the drain piping direct into a sewer from where sulfur gas may generate. 290~325mm Right overhead Secure the elevation as high as possible...
