This air conditioner uses new refrigerant HFC (R410A).
The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant models.
However, pay careful attention to the following points:
(1) Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant models, some of the piping and instal-
lation and service tools are special. (See the table below.)
Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant model with a new refrigerant R410A model, always replace the con-
ventional piping and flare nuts with the R410A piping and flare nuts.
(2) Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter to prevent erroneous charging with
conventional refrigerant and for safety. Therefore, check beforehand. [The charging port thread diameter for R410A is 1/2
UNF 20 threads per inch.]
(3) Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with refrigerant models. Also, when
storing the piping, securely seal the openings by pinching, taping, etc.
(4) When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition of the gas and liquid phases, and
always charge from the liquid phase side whose composition is stable.
Special tools for R410A
Tool name Contents of change
Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a conventional gauge. To prevent erroneous mixing of other
refrigerants, the diameter of each port has been changed.
Gauge manifold
It is recommended the gauge with seals –0.1 to 5.3 MPa (–76 cmHg to 53 kgf/cm 2 ) for high pressure.
–0.1 to 3.8 MPa (–76 cmHg to 38 kgf/cm 2 ) for low pressure.
Charge hose To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base size were changed.
Vacuum pump A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a vacuum pump adapter.
Gas leakage detector Special gas leakage detector for HFC refrigerant R410A.
Copper pipes
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes and it is desirable that the amount

DANGER
Never touch electrical components immediately after the power supply has been turned off. Electrical shock may occur. After
turning off the power, always wait 5 minutes or more before touching electrical components.
WARNING
(1) For the air conditioner to operate satisfactorily, install it as outlined in this installation instruction sheet.
(2) Connect the indoor unit and outdoor unit with the air conditioner piping and cords available standards parts. This installa-
tion instruction sheet describes the correct connections using the installation set available from our standard parts.
(3) Installation work must be performed in accordance with national wiring standards by authorized personnel only.
(4) Do not use an extension cord.
(5) Do not turn on the power until all installation work is complete.
(6) Do not purge the air with refrigerants but use a vacuum pump to vacuum the installation.
(7) There is not extra refrigerant in the outdoor unit for air purging.
(8) Use a vacuum pump for R410A exclusively.
(9) Using the same vacuum pump for different refrigerants may damage the vacuum pump or the unit.
(10) Use a clean gauge manifold and charging hose for R410A exclusively.

Do not use the existing piping and flare nuts.
• If the existing materials are used, the pressure inside the
refrigerant cycle will rise and cause breakage, injury, etc.
(Use the special R410A materials.)
(1) Do not use mineral oil on flared part.
Prevent mineral oil from getting into the system as this
would reduce the lifetime of the units.
(2) While welding the pipes, be sure to blow dry nitrogen
gas through them.
(3) The maximum lengths of this product are shown in ta-
ble 2. If the units are further apart than this, correct
operation can not be guaranteed.
