CAUTION
Do not directly connect the drain outlet to the water pipe outlet.
(It can cause problems to the product.)
!
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(25/32inch) thickness PE insulation mate-
rial.)
• 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
Upper graph is a theoretical value for selection and it may be different
according to specification of strainer.
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 follow-
ing situation.
1 Heat water supply within the plate type heat exchanger is com-
posed 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 sup-
ply, which can result in icing point in the water paths.
4 And as the heating process progresses, the water paths can be par-
tially 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.

14. Always use a non-oxidizing brazing material for brazing the parts
and do not use flux. If not, oxidized film can cause clogging or dam-
age to the compressor unit and flux can harm the copper piping or
refrigerant oil.
INSTALLATION OF WATER PIPE
Water pipe system diagram
• The water pressure resistance of the water pipe system of this
product is 1.98MPa(287.18psi).
• 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 di-
ameter 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 com-
ponents above the designed water pressure.
WARNING
When installing and moving the air conditioner to another site, be
sure to make recharge refrigerant after perfect evacuation.
If a different refrigerant or air is mixed with the original refrigerant, the
refrigerant cycle may malfunction and the unit may be damaged.
• After selecting diameter of the refrigerant pipe to suit total capac-
ity of the indoor unit connected after branching, use an appropriate
branch pipe set according to the pipe diameter of the indoor unit
and the installation pipe drawing.
