ENGLISH
Installation Manual 5
• Keep the unit away from children. The heat exchanger is very sharp.
-
It can cause the injury, such as cutting the finger. Also the damaged fin may result in degradation of capacity.
• When installting the unit in a hospital, communication station, or similar place, provide sufficient protection against
noise.
- The inverter equipment, private power generator, high-frequency medical equipment, or radio communication equip-
ment may cause the air conditioner to operate erroneously, or fail to operate. On the other hand, the air conditioner
may affect such equipment by creating noise that disturbs medical treatment or image broadcasting.
• Do not install the product where it is exposed to sea wind (salt spray) directly.
- It may cause corrosion on the product. Corrosion, particularly on the condenser and evaporator fins, could cause
product malfunction or inefficient operation.
Operation
• Do not use the air conditioner in special environments.
- Oil, steam, sulfuric smoke, etc. can significantly reduce the performance of the air conditioner or damage its parts.
• Do not block the inlet or outlet.
- It may cause failure of appliance or accident.
Make the connections securely so that the outside force of the cable may not be applied to the terminals.
- Inadequate connection and fastening may generate heat and cause a fire.
• Be sure the installation area does not deteriorate with age.
- If the base collapses, the air conditioner could fall with it, causing property damage, product failure, or personal injury.
• Be very careful about product transportation.
- Only one person should not carry the product if it weighs more than 20 kg.
- Some products use PP bands for packaging. Do not use any PP bands for a means of transportation. It is dangerous.
- Do not touch the heat exchanger fins. Doing so may cut your fingers.
- When transporting the outside unit, suspending it at the specified positions on the unit base. Also support the outside
unit at four points so that it cannot slip sideways.
• Safely dispose of the packing materials.
- Packing materials, such as nails and other metal or wooden parts, may cause stabs or other injuries.
- Tear apart and throw away plastic packaging bags so that children may not play with them. If children play with a plas-
tic bag which was not torn apart, they face the risk of suffocation.
• Turn on the power at least 6 hours before starting operation.
- Starting operation immediately after turning on the main power switch can result in severe
damage to internal parts. Keep the power switch turned on during the operational season.
• Do not touch any of the refrigerant piping during and after operation.
- It can cause a burn or frostbite.
• Do not operate the air conditioner with the panels or guards removed.
- Rotating, hot, or high-voltage parts can cause injuries.
• Do not directly turn off the main power switch after stopping operation.
- Wait at least 5 minutes before turning off the main power switch. Otherwise it may result in water leakage or other
problems.
• Auto-addressing should be done in condition of connecting the power of all indoor and outdoour units. Auto-addressing
should also be done in case of changing the indoor unit PCB.
• Use a firm stool or ladder when cleaning or maintaining the air conditioner.
- Be careful and avoid personal injury.

Safety Precautions
When wiring:
Electrical shock can cause severe personal injury or death. Only a qualified,
experienced electrician should attempt to wire this system.
• Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed or reconnected and checked.
• Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this system. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these
instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inadequate grounding can cause accidental injury or death.
• Ground the unit following local electrical codes.
Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause overheating at connection points and a possible fire hazard.
The choice of materials and installations must comply with the applicable local/national or international
standards.
When transporting:
Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and
bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on
the air conditioner can cut your finger.
When installing...
... in a wall: Make sure the wall is strong enough to hold the unit's weight.
It may be necessary to construct a strong wood or metal frame to provide added support.
... in a room: Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent "sweating" that can cause
dripping and water damage to wall and floors.
... in moist or uneven locatinons: Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks provide a solid,
level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents water damage and abnormal vibration.
... in an area with high winds: Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal
frame. Provide a suitable air baffle.
... in a snowy area(for Heat Pump Model): Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is
higher than drifting snow. Provide snow vents.
When connecting refrigerant tubing
• Keep all tubing runs as short as possible.
• Use the flare method for connecting tubing.
• Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.
When servicing
• Turn the power OFF at the main power box(mains) before opening the unit to check or repair
electrical parts and wiring.
• Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts.
• Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have
been left inside the unit being serviced.
WARNING
WARNING
• Refer to local code for all wiring size.
Installation or repairs made by unqualified persons can result in hazards to you and others.

background
Select the Best Location
Select space for installing outside unit, which will meet the following conditions:
• No direct thermal radiation from other heat sources
• No possibility of annoying neighbors by noise from unit
• No exposition to strong wind
• With strength which bears weight of unit
• Note that drain flows out of unit when heating
• With space for air passage and service work shown next
• Because of the possibility of fire, do not install unit to the space where generation, inflow, stagnation, and
leakage of combustible gas is expected.
• Avoid unit installation in a place where acidic solution and spray (sulfur) are often used.
• Do not use unit under any special environment where oil, steam and sulfuric gas exist.
• It is recommended to fence round the outside unit in order to prevent any person or animal from accessing the
outside unit.
• This product is prohibited for outdoor installation.
Select installation location considering following conditions to avoid bad condition when additionally performing
defrost operation.
1. Install the outside unit at a place well ventilated and having a lot of sunshine in case of installing the product
at a place with a high humidity in winter (neare beach, coast, lake, etc).
(Ex) Rooftop where sunshine always shines.
2. Performance of heating will be reduced and preheat time of the indoor unit may be lengthened in case of
installing the outside unit in winter at following location:
(1) Shade position with a narrow space
(2) Location with much moisture in neighboring floor.
(3) Location with much humidity around.
(4) Location where water gathers since the floor is not even.
• The refrigerant R410A has the property of higher operating pressure in comparison with R22.
Therefore, all materials have the characteristics of higher resisting pressure than R22 ones and this character-
istic should be also considered during the installation.
R410A is an azeotrope of R32 and R125 mixed at 50:50, so the ozone depletion potential (ODP) of R410A is
0. These days the developed countries have approved it as the environment-friendly refrigerant and encour-
aged to use it widely to prevent environment pollution.
Environment-friendly Alternative Refrigerant R410A
CAUTION:
• The wall thickness of the piping should comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed
pressure 3.8MPa
• Since R410A is a mixed refrigerant, the required additional refrigerant must be charged in its liquid state.
If the refrigerant is charged in its gaseous state, its composition changes and the system will not work properly.
• Do not place the refrigerant container under the direct rays of the sun to prevent it from exploding.
• For high-pressure refrigerant, any unapproved pipe must not be used.
• Do not heat pipes more than necessary to prevent them from softening.
• Be careful not to install wrongly to minimize economic loss because it is expensive in comparison with R22.

• Keep the water temperature between 10~45°C(50~113°F). Other it may cause the breakdown.
- Standard water supply temperature is 30°C(86°F) for Cooling and 20°C(68°F) for heating.
• Properly control the water velocity. Otherwise it may cause the noise, pipe vibration or pipe contraction, expansion
according to the temperature. Use the same water pipe size connected with the product or more.
• Refer to the water source pipe diameter and water velocity table below. As the water velocity is fast, air bubble will
increase.
• Be careful of the water purity control. Otherwise it may cause the breakdown due to water pipe corrosion.
(Refer to 'Standard Table for Water Purity Control')
• In case the water temperature is above 40°C(104°F), it is good to prevent the corrosion by adding the anticorrosive
agent.
• Install the pipe, valve and gauge sensor in the space where it is easy to maintain. Install the water valve in the low
position for drain, if required.
• Be careful not to let air in. If so, the water velocity will be unstable in the circulation, pump efficiency will also
decrease and may cause the piping vibration. Therefore, install the air purge where it may generate the air.
• Choose the following anti freezing methods. Otherwise, it will be dangerous for the pipe to break in the winter.
- Circulate the water with the pump before dropping the temperature.
- Keep the normal temperature by boiler.
- When the cooling tower is not operated for a long time, drain the water in the cooling tower.
- Use an anti-freeze. (For using an anti freeze, change the DIP switch on main PCB in outside unit.)
- Refer to the additive amount about freezing temperature as in the table given below.
• In addition to anti freeze, it may cause the change of the pressure in the water system and the low performance of
the product.
• Make sure to use the closed cooling type tower.
When applying the open type cooling tower, use a 2
nd
heat exchanger to make the water supply system a closed
type system.

Standard table for water purity control
The water may contain many foreign substances and hence may influence the performance and lifetime of the prod-
uct due to the corrosion of the condenser and water pipe. (Use water source that complies with the below standard
table for water purity control.)
If you use water supply other than the tap water to supply the water for the cooling tower, you must do a water quality
inspection.
• If you use the closed cooling tower, the water quality must be controlled in accordance with the following standard
table.
If you do not control the water quality in accordance with the following standard water quality table, it can cause per-
formance deterioration to the air conditioner and severe problem to the product
[Reference]
(1) The "O" mark for corrosion and scale means that there is possibility of occurrence.
(2) When the water temperature is 40°C or above or when uncoated iron is exposed to the water, it can result in corro-
sion. Therefore adding anti-corrosion agent or removing the air can be very effective.
(3) In case of using the closed type cooling tower, the cooling water and supplementing water must satisfy the water qual-
ity criteria of closed type system in the table.
(4) Supplementing water and supplied water must be supplied with tap water, industrial water and underground water
excluding filtered water, neutral water, soft water etc.
(5) 15 items in the table are general causes of corrosion and scale.

Preparation of Piping
1) Cut the pipes and the cable.
n Use the accessory piping kit or the pipes purchased
locally.
n Measure the distance between the indoor and the out-
side unit.
n Cut the pipes a little longer than measured distance.
n Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe length.
2) Burrs removal
n Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section
of pipe/tube.
n Put the end of the copper tube/pipe to downward direc-
tion as you remove burrs in order to avoid to let burrs
drop in the tubing.
3) Flaring work
n Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown below.
Firmly hold copper tube in a bar(or die) as indicated
dimension in the table above.
4) Check
n Compare the flared work with figure below.
n If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared section
and do flaring work again.

1. Use the heat insulation material for the refrigerant piping which has an excellent heat-resistance (over
120°C).
2. Precautions in high humidity circumstance:
This air conditioner has been tested according to the
"ISO Conditions with Mist" and confirmed that there is
not any default. However, if it is operated for a long
time in high humid atmosphere (dew point tempera-
ture: more than 23°C), water drops are liable to fall. In
this case, add heat insulation material according to the
following procedure:
• Heat insulation material to be prepared... EPDM
(Ethylene Propylene Diene Methylene)-over 120°C
the heat-resistance temperature.
• Add the insulation over 10mm thickness at high humidity environment.

WARNING
After completing work, securely tighten both service ports and caps so that gas does not leak.
Refrigerant piping installation
WARNING
Always use extreme care to prevent the refrigerant gas (R410A) from leakage while using fire or
flame. If the refrigerant gas comes in contact with the flame from any source, such as a gas stove, it
breaks down and generates a poisonous gas which can cause gas poisoning. Never perform brazing
in an unventilated room. Always conduct an inspection for gas leakage after installation of the refrig-
erant piping has been completed.
Pipe joint (auxiliary parts): Securely perform brazing with
a nitrogen blow into the service valve port.(Releasing
pressure : 0.02 MPa or less)
Flare nut: Loose or tighten flare nut by using the wrench
with both ends. Coat the flare connection part with oil for
the compressor.
Cap: Remove caps and operate valve, etc. After opera-
tion, always reattach caps (tightening torque of valve
cap: 25Nm (250kg-cm) or more). (Don't remove the
internal part of the port)
Service port: Make the refrigerant pipe vacuum and
charge it using the service port. Always reattach caps
after completing work (tightening torque of service cap:
14Nm (140kg-cm) or more).

Installation of Outdoor Unit, HR Unit, Indoor Unit Refrigerant Pipe
3 pipes are connected to the HR unit from the outdoor unit, classified into liquid pipe, low pressure gas pipe and
high pressure gas pipe depending on status of refrigerant passing through the pipe.
You must connect 3 pipes from outdoor unit to HR unit.
For connection between indoor unit and HR unit, you must connect both liquid pipe and gas pipe from the HR
unit to the indoor unit. In this case, connect them to the indoor unit starting from No.1 connection port of the HR
unit (the port number is displayed on ports of the HR unit). Use auxiliary flare as annexed parts in connection to
the indoor unit.

1. Use the following materials for refrigerant piping.
• Material: Seamless phosphorous deoxidized copper pipe
• Wall thickness : Comply with the relevant local and national regulations for the designed pressure
3.8MPa. We recommend the following table as the minimum wall thickness.
2. Commercially available piping often contains dust and other materials. Always blow it clean with a
dry inert gas.
3. Use care to prevent dust, water or other contaminants from entering the piping during installation.
4. Reduce the number of bending portions as much as possible, and make bending radius as big as
possible.
5. Always use the branch piping set shown below, which are sold separately.
6. If the diameters of the branch piping of the designated refrigerant piping differs, use a pipe cutter to cut
the connecting section and then use an adapter for connecting different diameters to connect the piping.
7. Always observe the restrictions on the refrigerant piping (such as rated length, difference in height, and
piping diameter).
Failure to do so can result in equipment failure or a decline in heating/cooling performance.
8. The Multi V will stop due to an abnormality like excessive or insufficient refrigerant. At such a time, always
properly charge the unit. When servicing, always check the notes concerning both the pipe length and the
amount of additional refrigerant.
9. Never use refrigerant to perform an air purge. Always evacuate using a vacuum pump.
10. Always insulate the piping properly. Insufficient insulation will result in a decline in heating/cooling perfor-
mance, drip of condensate and other such problems.
11. When connecting the refrigerant piping, make sure the service valves of the outdoor unit is completely
closed (the factory setting) and do not operate it until the refrigerant piping for the outdoor and indoor
units has been connected, a refrigerant leakage test has been performed and the evacuation process
has been completed.
12. Always use a non-oxidizing brazing material for brazing the parts and do not use flux. If not, oxidized film
can cause clogging or damage to the compressors and flux can harm the copper piping or refrigerant oil.
13. Diameter of the refrigerant pipe from the HR unit to the indoor unit is determined by capacity of the
indoor unit. The pipe port is installed to suit a large capacity of the indoor unit for the connection flare of
the HR unit. It is sufficient to cut, connect and install the subsidiary flare to suit the pipe of the indoor unit
connected.
14. Take care so that there is no thermal damage on the service valves of the outdoor unit.
(Especially packing part of service port.) Wrap the service valve with a wet towel when brazing it.

1) Water pipe system diagram
• The water pressure resistance of the water pipe system of this product is 1.98MPa
• When the water pipe passes indoors, make sure to execute heat insulation on the pipe so that water drops do not form on
the outer side of the water pipe.
• The size of the drain pipe must be equal to or larger than the diameter of the connecting product.
- Always install a trap so that the drained water does not back flush.
• Always install a strainer (50Mesh or above) at the entrance of the water pipe. (When sand, trash, rusted pieces get mixed
into the water supply, it can cause problems to the product due to blocking)
- If On/Off valve is applied, by interlocking with outside unit, it can save the energy consumption of pump by blocking the
water supply to the outside unit not operating. Select appropriate valve and install on site if necessary.
• Install a pressure gauge and temperature gauge at the inlet and outlet of the water pipe.
• Flexible joints must be installed not to cause any leakage from the vibration of pipes.
• Install a service port to clean the heat exchanger at the each end of the water inlet and outlet.
• For the components of the water pipe system, always use components above the designed water pressure.
2) Water pipe connection
• The water pipe should be the same size of the connection on the product or more.
• If necessary install the insulation material in the water pipe inlet/outlet to prevent water drop, freeze and to save energy.
(Use the above 20mm thickness PE insulation material.)
• Tightly connect the socket to the water pipe refer to below table for recommended specification.
(Too much torque may cause the damage of the facility.)

Strainer on water pipe
To protect the water cooling type product, you must install a strainer with 50 mesh or more on the heat water supply pipe.
If not installed, it can result in damage of heat exchanger by the following situation.
1. Heat water supply within the plate type heat exchanger is composed of multiple small paths.
2. If you do not use a strainer with 50 mesh or more, alien particles can partially block the water paths.
3. When running the heater, the plate type heat exchanger plays the role of the evaporator, and at this time, the temperature of the
coolant side drops to drop the temperature of the heat water supply, which can result in icing point in the water paths.
4. And as the heating process progresses, the water paths can be partially frozen to lead to damage in plate type heat exchanger.
5. As a result of the damage of the heat exchanger from the freezing, the coolant side and the heat water source side will be mixed
to make the product unusable.

Installation of flow switch
• The flow switch must be installed at the horizontal pipe of the heat water supply outlet of the product and check the direc-
tion of the heat water flow before the installation. (Picture 1)
• When connecting the flow switch to the product, remove the jump wire to connect to the communication terminal (4(A) and
4(B)) of the outside unit control box. (Picture 2, 3) (Open the cover of the flow switch and check the wiring diagram before
connecting the wires. The wiring method can differ by the manufacturer of the flow switch.)
• If necessary, adjust the flow rate detection screw after consulting with an expert and adjust to the minimum flow rate
range. (Picture 4) (Minimum flow rate range of this product is 50%. Adjust the flow switch to touch the contact point when
the flow rate reaches 50% of the flow rate.)
- Reference flow rate : 8HP – 21 GPM, 16HP – 42 GPM
10HP – 25 GPM, 20HP – 50 GPM

Flow switch work
• It is recommended to install the flow switch to the water collection pipe system
connecting to the outside unit.
(Flow switch acts as the 1st protection device when the heat water is not sup-
plied. If a certain level of water does not flow after installing the flow switch, an
error sign of CH24 error will be displayed on the product and the product will stop
operating.)
• When setting the flow switch, it is recommended to use the product with default
set value to satisfy the minimum flow rate of this product. (The minimum flow rate
range of this product is 50%. Reference flow rate : 8HP - 80LPM, 16HP -
155LPM)
• Select the flow switch with the permitted pressure specification considering the
pressure specification of the heat water supply system. (Control signal from out-
side unit is AC 220V.)

• If the set value does not satisfy the minimum flow rate or if the set value is changed by the user arbitrarily, it can result
in product performance deterioration or serious product problem.
• If the product is operated with the heat water supply not flowing smoothly, it can damage the heat exchanger or cause
serious product problems.
• In case of CH24 or CH180 error, there is a possibility that the plate type heat exchanger is partially frozen inside. In this
case resolve the issue of partial freezing and then operate the product again. (Cause of partial freezing : Insufficient
heat water flow rate, water not supplied, insufficient coolant, alien particle penetrated inside plate type heat exchanger)
• When the product operates while the flow switch touches the contact point at the flow rate range out of the permitted
range, it can cause product performance deterioration or serious product problem.
• Must use the normal closed type flow switch - Circuit of outside unit is normal closed type

Refrigerant piping system
Oil trap application method between outside units
Because of the possibility of oil being accumulated in the outside unit that has stopped, when there is a height difference between
outside unit pipes or if the pipe distance between the outside units is over 2m(6.6ft), you must always apply an oil trap. (But, the oil
trap between outside units is limited to 1 time and is only applied to the gas pipe.)
• If the pipe distance between the outside units is 2m(6.6ft) or below, and if the location of the main pipe is lower than that of the out-
side unit and if the location of the main pipe is lower than that of the outside unit, the oil trap does not have to be applied.
If the location of the main pipe is higher than the location of the outside unit, be careful since the oil can be accumulated in the
stopped outside unit.
If there is high/low difference between the outside unit pipes, oil can be accumulated to the outside unit on the lower location until
the unit stops.

Oil is accumulated on the

Because the oil flow to the right pipe, oil gets accumulated on
the outside unit on the lower side until the outside unit stops.

Leak test should be m
ade by pressurizing nitrogen gas to 3.8 MPa(38.7kgf/cm
2
). If the pressure does not drop for 24
hours, the system passes the test. If the pressure drops, check where the nitrogen leaks. For the test method, refer to
the following figure. (Make a test with the service valves closed. Be also sure to pressurize liquid pipe, gas pipe and
high/low pressure common pipe). The test result can be judged good if the pressure has not be reduced after leaving
for about one day after completion of nitrogen gas pressurization.
Note:
If the ambient temperature differs between the time when pressure is applied and when the pressure drop is
checked, apply the following correction factor
There is a pressure change of approximately 0.1 kg/cm
2
(0.01 MPa) for each 1°C of temperature difference.
Correction= (Temp. at the time of pressurization – Temp. at the time of check) X 0.1
For example: Temperature at the time of pressurization (3.8 MPa) is 27 °C
24 hour later: 3.73 MPa, 20°C
In this case the pressure drop of 0.07 is because of temperature drop
And hence there is no leakage in pipe occurred.
To prevent the nitrogen from entering the refrigeration system in the liquid state, the top of the
cylinder must be at higher position than the bottom when you pressurize the system.
Usually the cylinder is used in a vertical standing position.
background
44 Outside Unit
Vacuum
Vacuum drying should be made from the service port provided on the outside unit’s service valve to the vacuum
pump commonly used for liquid pipe, gas pipe and high/low pressure common pipe. (Make Vacuum from liquid
pipe, gas pipe and high/low pressure common pipe with the service valve closed.)
* Never perform air purging using refrigerant.
• Vacuum drying: Use a vacuum pump that can evacuate to -100.7kPa (5 Torr, -755mmHg).
1. Evacuate the system from the liquid and gas pipes with a vacuum pump for over 2 hrs and bring the system
to -100.7kPa.
After maintaining system under that condition for over 1 hr, confirm the vacuum gauge rises. The system may
contain moisture or leak.
2. Following should be executed if there is a possibility of moisture remaining inside the pipe.
(Rainwater may enter the pipe during work in the rainy season or over a long period of time)
After evacuating the system for 2 hrs, give pressure to the system to 0.05MPa(vacuum break) with nitrogen
gas and then evacuate it again with the vacuum pump for 1hr to -100.7kPa(vacuum drying). If the system
cannot be evacuated to -100.7kPa within 2 hrs, repeat the steps of vacuum break and its drying.
Finally, check if the vacuum gauge does not rise or not, after maintaining the system in vacuum for 1 hr.

1. Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related to electrical equipment,
wiring regulations and guidance of each electric power company.
2. Install the Outside Unit transmission line away from the power source wiring so that it is not affected by elec-
tric noise from the power source. (Do not run it through the same conduit.)
3. Be sure to provide designated grounding work to Outside Unit.
4. Give some allowance to wiring for electrical part box of Indoor and Outside Units, because the box is some-
times removed at the time of service work.
5. Never connect the main power source to terminal block of transmission line. If connected, electrical parts will
be burnt out.
6. Use 2-core shield cable for transmission line.(O mark in the figure below) If transmission lines of different sys-
tems are wired with the same multiplecore cable, the resultant poor transmitting and receiving will cause erro-
neous operations. ( mark in the figure below)
7. Only the transmission line specified should be connected to the terminal block for Outside Unit transmission.
Be sure to have authorized electrical engineers do the electric work using special circuits in
accordance with regulations and this installation manual. If power supply circuit has a lack of
capacity or electric work deficiency, it may cause an electric shock or fire.
Be sure to correct the outside unit to earth. Do not connect earth line to any gas pipe, water pipe,
lightening rod or telephone earth line. If earth is incomplete, it may cause an electric shock.

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.
• For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect firmly, then secure to prevent outside pressure
being exerted on the terminal block.
• Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the terminal screws. A screwdriver with a small head will
strip the head and make proper tightening impossible.
• Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.
u Precautions when laying power and ground wiring
Round pressure terminal
Power wire (Ground wire)
Use round pressure terminals for connections to the power terminal block.
When laying ground wiring, you must use round pressure terminals.
• Use the 2-core shield cables for transmission lines. Never use them together with power cables.
• The conductive shielding layer of cable should be grounded to the metal part of both units.
• Never use multi-core cable
• As this unit is equipped with an inverter, to install a phase leading capacitor not only will deteriorate
power factor improvement effect, but also may cause capacitor abnormal heating. Therefore, never
install a phase leading capacitor.
• Make sure that the power unbalance ratio is not greater than 2%. If it is greater the units lifespan will
be reduced.

4) Separation of transmission and power lines
• If transmission and power lines are run alongside each other then there is a strong likelihood of operational
faults developing due to interference in the signal wiring caused by electrostatic and electromagnetic cou-
pling.
The tables below indicates our recommendation as to appropriate spacing of transmission and power lines
where these are to be run side by side
Note:
1. The figures are based on assumed length of parallel cabling up to 100m. For length in excess of 100m
the figures will have to be recalculated in direct proportion to the additional length of line involved.
2. If the power supply waveform continues to exhibit some distortion the recommended spacing in the
table should be increased.
• If the lines are laid inside conduits then the following point must also be taken into account when grouping
various lines together for introduction into the conduits
• Power lines(including power supply to air conditioner) and signal lines must not be laid inside the same
• In the same way, when grouping the lines power and signal lines should not be bunched together.
Current capacity of power line Spacing
10A 300mm(11-13/16 inch)
50A 500mm(19-11/16 inch)

If apparatus is not properly earthed then there is always a risk of electric shocks, the earthing of the
apparatus must be carried out by a qualified person.

1. Use a separate power supply for the Outside Unit and Indoor Unit.
2. Bear in mind ambient conditions (ambient temperature,direct sunlight, rain water,etc.) when proceed-
ing with the wiring and connections.
3. The wire size is the minimum value for metal conduit wiring. The power cord size should be 1 rank
thicker taking into account the line voltage drops. Make sure the power-supply voltage does not drop
more than 10%.
4. Specific wiring requirements should adhere to the wiring regulations of the region.
5. Power supply cords of parts of appliances for outside use should not be lighter than polychloroprene
sheathed flexible cord.
6. Do not install an individual switch or electrical outlet to disconnect each of indoor unit separately from
the power supply.
u Wiring of Main Power Supply and Equipment Capacity
• Follow ordinance of your governmental organization for technical standard related to electrical equipment, wiring reg-
ulations and guidance of each electric power company.
• Make sure to use specified wires for connections so that no external force is imparted to terminal connections. If con-
nections are not fixed firmly, it may cause heating or fire.
• Make sure to use the appropriate type of overcurrent protection switch. Note that generated overcurrent may include
some amount of direct current.
Some installation site may require attachment of an earth leakage breaker. If no earth leakage breaker is installed, it may
cause an electric shock.
• Do not use anything other than breaker and fuse with correct capacity. Using fuse and wire or copper wire with too large
capacity may cause a malfunction of unit or fire.

• Indoor Unit ground Lines are required for preventing electrical shock accident during current leakage,
Communication disorder by noise effect and motor current leakage (without connection to pipe).
• Don't install an individual switch or electrical outlet to disconnect each of indoor unit separately from the power supply.
• Install the main switch that can interrupt all the power sources in an integrated manner because this system consists of the
equipment utilizing the multiple power sources.
• If there exists the possibility of reversed phase, lose phase, momentary blackout or the power goes on and off while the prod-
uct is operating, attach a reversed phase protection circuit locally.
Running the product in reversed phase may break the compressor and other parts.

Check whether the air is completely removed and the water supply is flowing smoothly.
Check whether there is any refrigerant leakage of any disconnected or loose communication or power wire, or use
the electric wiring diagram to check the wiring connection condition.
Check whether the power and communication wire are connected.
Check whether the power cable L1, L2, L3 are correctly connected.
Check the insulation resistance with the DB mega tester device (DC 500V) between the power terminal block and
grounding, and check whether it is 2.0MΩ or above when measured.
If the resistance is 2.0MΩ or less, do not operate the product.
Precaution)
- Never check the insulation resistance for the terminal control board.
(The control board can be damaged.)
- If you leave the system turned off right after the installation or for a long period of time, the refrigerant gets accu-
mulated within the compressor and the insulation resistance reduces to less than 2 MΩ. When the insulation
resistance is 2 MΩ or less, turn on the power and let the electricity be supplied to the crank case heater of the
compressor and let the refrigerant including the oil inside the compressor to evaporate.
Then the insulation resistance value will increase to more than 2.0 MΩ.
Check whether the liquid and gas pipes are open.
Precaution when blocking the water cooling type Multi V main power
- While using the product (Air conditioning season/Heating season), always connect the main power of the outside
unit.
- During the test run operation after installing the product or during the operation after blocking the outside unit
main power (Power outage etc.), you must always connect the power 6 hours prior to heating the crank case
heater. If the crank case is not preheated for more than 6 hours with the electric heater, it can cause a burn on
the compressor.
(Heating the bottom part of the compressor with the crank case heater is to evaporate the refrigerant included in
the oil inside the compressor.)
• Always check whether the water supply is flowing smoothly before the test run. (If sufficient amount
of water is not flowing, it can burn the product.)
• During the initial test run after installing the product, leaving the product for more than 3 days or
after replacing the compressor, power must be connected 6 hours prior to the operation to heat the
compressor heater. (If the product is not heated sufficiently, it can burn the product.)

Maintenance of plate type heat exchanger
h When CH24 or CH180 error occurs during the test operation of the heater, the inside of the panel heat exchanger may be
partially frozen and therefore, be sure to get rid of its cause and then, re-operate the device.
(The root cause of partial freezing: The lack of flow of heat-sourced water, suspension of water, lack of cooling medium,
infiltration of foreign substance inside of panel heat exchanger )
As the scales are created in the panel heat exchanger, its efficiency may decrease or damage may occur due to winter-sowing due
to the decrease in its flow.
Due to this reason, regular maintenance is necessary so that the scales shouldn't be created.
1. Before the season of use, check below points.(Once a year)
1) inspection on water quality to check if this is within the standard condition.
2) Clean the strainer.
3) Check if the flow is appropriate.
4) Check if the operation environment is appropriate.(Pressure, flow, output temperature)
2. Below procedure should be abided by in order to clean the panel heat exchanger. (Once every 5 years)
1) Check if the service port is equipped with the water pipe in order to clean the chemical solution.
5% diluted formic acid, citric acid, oxalic acid, acetate acid, phosphoric acid and etc. are appropriate for the chemical solution
for wiping out the scales.(Hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, nitric acid and etc. shouldn't be used due to its corrosion.)
2) Be sure to check if the gate valve of inflow/outflow pipe and the valve for outflow pipe are properly closed when cleaning.
3) Connect the water pipe for cleaning with the chemical solvent through the service plug of the pipe and fill up the panel heat
exchanger with 50°C~60°C(122°F~140°F) of cleaning solvent and circulate it with the pump for 2~5 hours. The circulation
time may depend on the temperature of the cleaning solvent or the creation of the scales. Therefore, observe change in the
color of the chemical solvent to set the circulation time for removing the scales.
4) After the circulation of the solvent, extract the solvent inside of the panel heat exchanger and fill up 1~2% of NaOH or NaHCO
3
and then, circulate it for 15~20 minutes to neutralize the heat exchanger.
5) Once the neutralization is completed, clean the inside of the panel heat exchanger with clean water.
Measure the water Ph to check if the chemical solvent is properly removed or not.
6) When using a different kind of chemical solvent in the market, be sure to check if there is any corrosive action to stainless or
copper in advance or not.
7) For details on the cleaning chemical solvent, be sure to consult the specialists of the related corporation.
3. After cleaning, operate the device to see if it works properly once again.

Daily check/management
Maintenance/Repair checklist
1. Water quality control
The plate type heat exchanger is not structured to be disassembled, cleaned or replaced with parts.
To prevent corrosion or scaling on the plate type heat exchanger, special care must be taken to control the water quality.
Water quality must satisfy the minimum criteria of the reference water quality items.
When anti-corrosion agent or corrosion inhibitor is added, the substance must not have any corrosive effect on stainless
steel and copper.
Even if the circulating water is not contaminated by the external air, it is recommended to empty the water flowing in the
pipe and to resupply the water.
2. Flow rate control
If the flow rate is insufficient, it can cause freezing on the plate type heat exchanger.
Check whether the strainer is clogged or whether the pipe is filled with air and then check the temperature and pressure
difference of the inlet and outlet pipe to check whether the flow rate is insufficient.
If the temperature and pressure difference is above the appropriate level, it means that the flow rate is reduced. In this
case, the operation must immediately be stopped and re-operated when the root cause is resolved. (*If air is trapped in
the pipe, the air must be purged. Air inside the water pipe interferes with the circulation of the heat water supply and can
cause insufficient flow rate or freezing.)
3. Brine density management
When using the brine (Anti-freeze) in the heat water supply, designated type and density must be used. Calcium chloride
brine can cause corrosion on the plate type heat exchanger and must not be used.
If the anti-freeze liquid is left as is, it absorbs the moisture from the air to cause a drop in the density, leading to freezing
of plate type heat exchanger. Therefore minimize the contact surface with the atmosphere and periodically measure the
density of the brine to supplement the brine as needed to maintain the density.
• The above checklist is set based on the minimum period and more frequent checking can be required depending on the operating condition/water quality condition.
• When cleaning the heat exchanger, make sure to take parts out or lock the value so that chemical detergent does not penetrate into the pressure gauge etc.
• When cleaning the heat exchanger, check the connecting part of the water pipes prior to cleaning so that the chemical detergent does not leak.
• After sufficiently mixing the chemical detergent with water, start cleaning.
• Cleaning the heat exchanger is easier at the initial stage and becomes difficult after the scaling has accumulated.
• In areas where the water quality is poor, cleaning is required periodically.
Because chemical detergent has strong acidity, it must be washed off thoroughly with water.
• To check whether it is cleaned well inside, remove the hose and check the inside.
• Purge the air to remove any air inside the water pipe.
• After checking, always check whether the heat water supply is flowing normally flowing before operating the product.

Installation Manual 85
The installer and system specialist shall secure safety against leakage according to local regulations or standards.
The following standards may be applicable if local regulations are not available.
Though the R410A refrigerant is harmless and incombustible itself , the room to equip the air conditioner should be large to
such an extent that the refrigerant gas will not exceed the limiting concentration even if the refrigerant gas leaks in the room.
n Limiting concentration
Check limiting concentration along following steps and take appropriate measure depending on the situation.
n Calculate amount of all the replenished refrigerant (kg) per each refrigerant
system.
n Calculate minimum room capacity
Calculate room capacity by regarding a portion as one room or the smaller room.
(1) Without partition
(2) With partition and with opening which serve as
passage of air to adjoining room
Caution For Refrigerant Leak
Introduction
Checking procedure of limiting concentration
Limiting concentration is the limit of Freon gas concentration where immediate measures can be taken with-
out hurting human body when refrigerant leaks in the air. The limiting concentration shall be described in the
unit of kg/m

(Freon gas weight per unit air volume) for facilitating calculation.
Limiting concentration: 0.44kg/m

n Calculate refrigerant concentration
n In case the concentration exceeds the limit
When the concentration exceeds the limit, change original plan or take one of the countermeasures
shown below:
• Countermeasure 1
Provide opening for ventilation.
Provide 0.15% or more opening to floor space both above and below door, or provide opening without
door.
• Countermeasure 2
Provide gas leak alarm linked with mechanical ventilator.
Reducing the outside refrigerant qty.
Pay a special attention to the place, such as a basement, etc. where refrigerant can stay, since refrigerant is
heavier than air.

rooms until at last the result is below the
limiting concentration.
