Connecting the pipe
Connecting the pipe to the indoor unit
Remove the Á are nut and seal cap.
By loosening the Á are nut at the pipe end, the refrigerant is discharged in a small amount.
The arrangement has been made for shipment, and the discharge of refrigerant is never a
trouble to the equipment.
When the Á are nut is removed, never fail to remove the seal cap. If not removed, the
refrigerant will not be circulated, which result the compressor drive motor will possibly be burnt.
Apply refrigerator oil to the union and the Á ared portion of the pipe.
Wrap Á are insulation, bind top and bottom Á are insulation by binder.
When connecting pipes, if Á are nut is over-tightened at the small diameter side, the screw
thread of the service valve may be broken making pipe connection impossible. Be sure to
tighten the nut with speciÀ ed torque.
Connecting of drain pipe
Securely glue connection part of
●
drain hose and PVC pipe, using PVC
adhesive.
●
If gluing of drain hose and PVC pipe
is too weak, water leakage may occur.
Be sure to wrap generally-available
insulator (10mm or more of foamed
polyethylene) around drain hose,
inside the house, for insulation heat.
●
Checking drain and water leakage.
Perform after connecting power.
If checking of drainage is omitted,
●
water drop may occur.
●
Add water to water pan of indoor unit
as shown below.
Perform test running of drain pump
●
to check drainage operation.
●
Test run method
1
Turn power on.
Remove cover of electric box and
2
set the drain pump test run switch
to TEST.
3
After checking the drainage, return
the switch to NORMAL.
CAUTION
If drain pump test run is right
●
set to TEST, drain pump may
malfunction.
CAUTION
•
The installation height of indoor
unit must be 2.3m or more.
The indoor piping
should be insulated
with the enclosed
insulation pipe. (If the
insulator is insufÀ cient,
please use commersial
products).
●
The difference in height
between the indoor and
outdoor unit should be kept
below 10m.
●
The connecting pipe, no
matter big or small, should
all be insulated with insulation
pipe and then wrapped with
vinyl tape. (The insulator will
deteriorate if it is not wrapped
with tape).
Drain Pipe
Must be installed separately.
Insulate indoor part of pipe to
prevent condensation.
CAUTION
CAUTION
●
The rubber strap used for fixing the
insulator should not be tied with great force.
Otherwise, this will damage heat insulation
and causes water condensation.
