Manual and/or Installation Manual. with reference to the Installation Manual.

For general public use

Power supply cord of outdoor unit shall be more than 1.5 mm2 (H07RN-F or 60245IEC66) polychloroprene
sheathed flexible cord.

• Read this “SAFETY PRECAUTIONS” carefully before servicing.


• The precautions described below include the important items regarding safety. Observe them without fail.
• After the servicing work, perform a trial operation to check for any problem.
• Turn off the main power supply switch (or breaker) before the unit maintenance.

■ Important information regarding the refrigerant used


This product contains fl uorinated greenhouse gases covered by the Kyoto Protocol. Do not vent gases into
the atmosphere. Refrigerant type: R32
GWP(1) value: 675*
(1)GWP = global warming potential
The refrigerant quantity is in dicated on the unit name plate.
* This value is based on F gas regulation 517/2014CAUTION

CAUTION

New Refrigerant Air Conditioner Installation


• THIS AIR CONDITIONER ADOPTS THE NEW HFC REFRIGERANT (R32) WHICH DOES NOT
DESTROY OZONE LAYER.
R32 refrigerant is apt to be affected by impurities such as water, oxidizing membrane, and oils because the
working pressure of R32 refrigerant is approx. 1.6 times of refrigerant R22. Accompanied with the adoption
of the new refrigerant, the refrigeration machine oil has also been changed. Therefore, during installation
work, be sure that water, dust, former refrigerant, or refrigeration machine oil does not enter into the new
type refrigerant R32 air conditioner circuit.
To prevent mixing of refrigerant or refrigerating machine oil, the sizes of connecting sections of charging
port on main unit and installation tools are different from those used for the conventional refrigerant units.
Accordingly, special tools are required for the new refrigerant (R32) units. For connecting pipes, use new
and clean piping materials with high pressure fittings made for R32 only, so that water and/or dust does not
enter. Moreover, do not use the existing piping because there are some problems with pressure fittings and
possible impurities in existing piping.

CAUTION
TO DISCONNECT THE APPLIANCE FROM THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY
This appliance must be connected to the main power supply by a circuit breaker or a switch with a contact
separation of at least 3 mm.

DANGER
• ASK AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR QUALIFIED INSTALLATION PROFESSIONAL TO IN-
STALL/MAINTAIN THE AIR CONDITIONER.
INAPPROPRIATE SERVICING MAY RESULT IN WATER LEAKAGE, ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.
• TURN OFF MAIN POWER SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY ELECTRICAL WORK. MAKE SURE
ALL POWER SWITCHES ARE OFF. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.

DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE


The high voltage circuit is incorporated.
Be careful to do the check service, as the electric shock may be caused in case of touching parts
on the P.C. board by hand.

• CORRECTLY CONNECT THE CONNECTING CABLE. IF THE CONNECTING CABLE IS INCOR-


RECTLY CONNECTED, ELECTRIC PARTS MAY BE DAMAGED.
• CHECK THAT THE EARTH WIRE IS NOT BROKEN OR DISCONNECTED BEFORE SERVICE AND
INSTALLATION. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOCK.
• DO NOT INSTALL NEAR CONCENTRATIONS OF COMBUSTIBLE GAS OR GAS VAPORS. FAILURE
TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION CAN RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
• TO PREVENT THE INDOOR UNIT FROM OVERHEATING AND CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD, PLACE
THE UNIT WELL AWAY (MORE THAN 2 M) FROM HEAT SOURCES SUCH AS RADIATORS, HEAT
REGISTORS, FURNACE, STOVES, ETC.
• WHEN MOVING THE AIR-CONDITIONER FOR INSTALLATION IN ANOTHER PLACE, BE VERY CARE-
FUL NOT TO ALLOW THE SPECIFIED REFRIGERANT (R410A) TO BECOME MIXED WITH ANY
OTHER GASEOUS BODY INTO THE REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT. IF AIR OR ANY OTHER GAS IS
MIXED IN THE REFRIGERANT, THE GAS PRESSURE IN THE REFRIGERATION CIRCUIT WILL
BECOME ABNORMALLY HIGH AND IT MAY RESULT IN THE PIPE BURSTING AND POSSIBLE PER-
SONNEL INJURIES.
• IN THE EVENT THAT THE REFRIGERANT GAS LEAKS OUT OF THE PIPE DURING THE SERVICE
WORK AND THE INSTALLATION WORK, IMMEDIATELY LET FRESH AIR INTO THE ROOM. IF THE
REFRIGERANT GAS IS HEATED, SUCH AS BY FIRE, GENERATION OF POISONOUS GAS MAY
RESULT.

WARNING
• Never modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or bypass any of the safety interlock
switches.
• Do not install in a place which cannot bear the weight of the unit. Personal injury and property
damage can result if the unit falls.
• After the installation work, confirm that refrigerant gas does not leak.
If refrigerant gas leaks into the room and flows near a fire source, such as a cooking range, noxious gas
may generate.
• The electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the Installation
Manual. Make sure the air conditioner uses an exclusive circuit.
An insufficient circuit capacity or inappropriate installation may cause fire.
• When wiring, use the specified cables and connect the terminals securely to prevent external
forces applied to the cable from affecting the terminals.
• Be sure to provide grounding.
Do not connect ground wires to gas pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or ground wires for telephone cables.
• Conform to the regulations of the local electric company when wiring the power supply.
Inappropriate grounding may cause electric shock.
• Manufacturer pay no responsibility to any damage, caused by heating cable, being outside of unit.

• Do not pierce or burn as the appliance is pressurized. Do not expose the appliance to heat, fl ame, sparks, or
other sources or ignition. Else, it may explode and cause injury or death.
• For R32 model, use pipes, fl are nut and tools which is specifi ed for R32 refrigerant. Using of existing (R22)
piping, fl are nut and tools may cause abnormally high pressure in the refrigerant cycle (piping), and possibly
result in explosion and injury.
• Thickness of copper pipes used R32 must be more than 0.8mm. Never use copper pipes thinner than 0.8mm.
• Do not perform flare connection inside a building or dwelling or room, when joining the heat exchanger of
indoor unit with interconnection piping. Refrigerant connection inside a building or dwelling or room must be
made by brazing or welding. Joint connection of indoor unit by flaring method can only be made at outdoor or
at outside of building or dwelling or room. Flare connection may cause gas leak and flammable atmosphere.
• After completion of installation or service, confirm there is no leakage of refrigerant gas. It may generate toxic
gas when the refrigerant contacts with fire.
• Appliance and pipe-work shall be installed, operated and stored in a room with a floor area large than Amin m2
How to get Amin m2 : Amin = (M / (2.5 x 0.22759 x h0))2
M is the refrigerant charge amount in appliance in kg. h0 is the installation height of the appliance in m : 0.6 m
for floor standing/1.8m for wall mounted/1.0 m for window mounted/2.2 m for ceiling mounted.
• Comply with national gas regulations.

CAUTION
• Exposure of unit to water or other moisture before installation may result in an electrical short.
Do not store in a wet basement or expose to rain or water.
• Do not install in a place that can increase the vibration of the unit. Do not install in a place that can amplify
the noise level of the unit or where noise or discharged air might disturb neighbors.
• To avoid personal injury, be careful when handling parts with sharp edges.
• Perform the specified installation work to guard against an earthquake.
If the air conditioner is not installed appropriately, accidents may occur due to the falling unit.

For Reference:
If a heating operation would be continuously performed for a long time under the condition that the outdoor
temperature is 0°C or lower, drainage of defrosted water may be difficult due to freezing of the bottom
plate, resulting in a trouble of the cabinet or fan.
It is recommended to procure an antifreeze heater locally for a safe installation of the air conditioner.
For details, contact the dealer.

other cover.
1. Flare processing procedures and precautions
a) Cutting the Pipe
By means of a pipe cutter, slowly cut the pipe so that it is not deformed.
b) Removing Burrs and Chips
If the flared section has chips or burrs, refrigerant leakage may occur.
Carefully remove all burrs and clean the cut surface before installation.
c) Insertion of Flare Nut

d) Flare Processing
Make certain that a clamp bar and copper
pipe have been cleaned.
ØD
By means of the clamp bar, perform the flare A
processing correctly.
Use either a flare tool for R32 or conven-
tional flare tool.
Flare processing dimensions differ according
to the type of flare tool. When using a con-
ventional flare tool, be sure to secure “dimen-
sion A” by using a gauge for size adjustment. Fig. 3-2-1 Flare processing dimensions

2. Flare Connecting Procedures and Precautions


a) Make sure that the flare and union portions do not have any scar or dust, etc.
b) Correctly align the processed flare surface with the union axis.
c) Tighten the flare with designated torque by means of a torque wrench. The tightening torque for R32 is
the same as that for conventional R22. Incidentally, when the torque is weak, the gas leakage may occur.
When it is strong, the flare nut may crack and may be made non-removable. When choosing the tighten-
ing torque, comply with values designated by manufacturers. Table 3-2-7 shows reference values.

NOTE :
When applying oil to the flare surface, be sure to use oil designated by the manufacturer.
If any other oil is used, the lubricating oils may deteriorate and cause the compressor to burn out.

3-3. Tools
3-3-1. Required Tools
The service port diameter of packed valve of the outdoor unit in the air-water heat pump using R32 is
changed to prevent mixing of other refrigerant. To reinforce the pressure-resisting strength, flare processing
dimensions and opposite side dimension of flare nut (For Ø12.7 copper pipe) of the refrigerant piping are
lengthened.
The used refrigerating oil is changed, and mixing of oil may cause a trouble such as generation of sludge,
clogging of capillary, etc. Accordingly, the tools to be used are classified into the following three types.
1. Tools exclusive for R32 (Those which cannot be used for conventional refrigerant (R22))
2. Tools exclusive for R32, but can be also used for conventional refrigerant (R22)
3. Tools commonly used for R32 and for conventional refrigerant (R22)
The table below shows the tools exclusive for R32 and their interchangeability.

When it is necessary to recharge refrigerant, charge the specified amount of new refrigerant according to the
following steps.

liquid refrigerant.

(For refrigerant charging, see the figure below.)


Place the handle of the gauge manifold Low in the
fully opened position, and turn on the vacuum pump’s
power switch. Then, evacuating the refrigerant in the
cycle.

1. Never charge refrigerant exceeding the specified amount.


2. If the specified amount of refrigerant cannot be charged, charge refrigerant bit by bit in COOL mode.
3. Do not carry out additional charging.
When additional charging is carried out if refrigerant leaks, the refrigerant composition changes in the
refrigeration cycle, that is characteristics of the air conditioner changes, refrigerant exceeding the
specified amount is charged, and working pressure in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high
pressure, and may cause a rupture or personal injury.

1. Be sure to make setting so that liquid can be charged.


2. When using a cylinder equipped with a siphon, liquid can be charged without turning it upside down.

It is necessary for charging refrigerant under condition of liquid because R32 is mixed type of refrigerant.
Accordingly, when charging refrigerant from the refrigerant cylinder to the equipment, charge it turning the
cylinder upside down if cylinder is not equipped with siphon.

Be careful to do the check service, as the electric shock may be caused in case of touching parts on the
P.C. board by hand.

The new inverter will be incorporated starting with this unit.

CAUTION
A high voltage (equivalent to the supply voltage) is also energized to ground through the
sensors, PMV and other low-voltage circuits. The sensor leads and other wires are covered
with insulated tubes for protection. Nevertheless, care must be taken to ensure that these
wires are not pinched.
Take sufficient care to avoid directly touching any of the circuit parts without first turning off
the power.
At times such as when the circuit board is to be replaced, place the circuit board assembly in
a vertical position.
Laying the board flat on an electrically conductive object (such as the top panel of the air conditioner's
outdoor unit) while a charge is still retained by the electrolytic capacitors of the inverter's main circuit may
cause short-circuiting between the electrolytic capacitors and secondary circuit components and result in
damage to the components.

Fig. 11-2
Do NOT lay the circuit board assembly flat.

K Precautions when inspecting the control section of the outdoor unit


NOTE :
A large-capacity electrolytic capacitor is used in the outdoor unit controller (inverter). Therefore, if the power
supply is turned off, charge (charging voltage DC280 to 380V) remains and discharging takes a lot of time.
After turning off the power source, if touching the charging section before discharging, an electrical shock may
be caused. Discharge the electrolytic capacitor completely by using soldering iron, etc.

< Discharging method >


1. Remove the inverter cover (plating) by opening four mounting claws.
2. As shown below, connect the discharge resistance (approx. 100Ω40W) or plug of the soldering iron to
voltage between + – terminals of the C10 (“CAUTION HIGH VOLTAGE” is indicated.) electrolytic capacitor
(760µF/400V) on P.C. board, and then perform discharging.

11-1. First Confirmation


11-1-1. Confirmation of Power Supply
Confirm that the power breaker operates (ON) normally.

11-1-2. Confirmation of Power Voltage


Confirm that power voltage is AC 220–230–240 ± 10%.
If power voltage is not in this range, the unit may not operate normally.

11-1-3. Operation Which is not a Trouble (Program Operation)


For controlling the air conditioner, the program operations are built in the microcomputer as described in the
following table.
If a claim is made for running operation, check whether or not it meets to the contents in the following table.
When it does, we inform you that it is not trouble of equipment, but it is indispensable for controlling and main-
taining of air conditioner.

11-2. Primary Judgment


To diagnose the troubles, use the following methods.
1) Judgment by flashing LED of indoor unit
2) Self-diagnosis by service check remote controller
3) Judgment of trouble by every symptom

Firstly use the method 1) for diagnosis. Then, use the method 2) or 3) to diagnose the details of troubles.

11-3. Judgment by Flashing LED of Indoor Unit


While the indoor unit monitors the operation status of the air conditioner, if the protective circuit operates, the
contents of self-diagnosis are displayed with block on the indoor unit indication section.

11-10. How to Simply Judge Whether Outdoor Fan Motor is Good or Bad
1. Symptom
• Outdoor fan motor does not rotate.
• Outdoor fan motor stops within several tens seconds though it started rotating.
• Outdoor fan motor rotates or does not rotate according to the position where the fan stopped, etc.
Remote controller check code “02 : Outdoor block, 1A : Outdoor fan drive system error”
2. Cause
The following causes are considered when the outdoor fan motor does not normally rotate.
1) Mechanical lock of the outdoor fan motor
2) Winding failure of the outdoor fan motor
3) Position-detect circuit failure inside of the outdoor fan motor
4) Motor drive circuit failure of the outdoor P.C. board
3. How to simply judge whether outdoor fan motor is good or bad

Turn OFF the breaker.

Disconnect two connectors (CN31) of the


outdoor fan motor from the outdoor P.C. board.

Does the fan rotate without trouble NO


CN31
when rotating it with hands?
YES

If the resistance value between


1 (Red lead) – 2 (White lead)
2 (White lead) – 3 (Black lead) NO
3 (Black lead) – 1 (Red lead)
of the connector
(CN31 : Motor winding)
is 21 ± 1.05Ω

YES

Fan motor is normal. Fan motor error

(Outdoor P.C. board error)

NOTE :
However, GND circuit error inside of the motor may be accepted in some cases when the above check is
performed.
When the fan motor does not become normal even if P.C. board is replaced, replace the outdoor fan motor.

12. HOW TO REPLACE THE MAIN PARTS

WARNING
• Since high voltages pass through the electrical parts, turn off the power without fail before proceeding with
the repairs.
Electric shocks may occur if the power plug is not disconnected.
• After the repairs have been completed (after the front panel and cabinet have been installed), perform a
test run, and check for smoking, unusual sounds and other abnormalities.
If this check is omitted, a fire and/or electric shocks may occur.
Before proceeding with the test run, install the front panel and cabinet.
• Ensure that the following steps are taken when doing repairs on the refrigerating cycle.
1. Do not allow any naked flames in the surrounding area.
If a gas stove or other appliance is being used, extinguish the flames before proceeding.
If the flames are not extinguished, they may ignite any oil mixed with the refrigerant gas.
2. Do not use welding equipment in an airtight room.
Carbon monoxide poisoning may result if the room is not properly ventilated.
3. Do not bring welding equipment near flammable objects.
Flames from the equipment may cause the flammable objects to catch fire.
• If keeping the power on is absolutely unavoidable while doing a job such as inspecting the cir-
cuitry, wear rubber gloves to avoid contact with the live parts.
Electric shocks may be received if the live parts are touched.
High-voltage circuits are contained inside this unit.
Proceed very carefully when conducting checks since directly touching the parts on the control circuit
board may result in electric shocks.
