1 Outdoor Unit Installation 6 0 cm ( 2 4 i n ) a b o ve Outdoor Unit Installation Installation Instructions – Outdoor Unit Step 1: Select installation location Before installing the outdoor unit, you must choose an appropriate location. The following are standards that will help you choose an appropriate location for the unit. Proper installation locations meet the following standards: Meets all spatial requirements shown in Installation Space Requirements ( Fig. 4.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR EXTREME WEATHER If the drain joint comes with a rubber seal (see Fig. 4.4 - A ), do the following: If the unit is exposed to heavy wind: 1. Fit the rubber seal on the end of the drain joint that will connect to the outdoor unit. Install unit so that air outlet fan is at a 90° angle to the direction of the wind. If needed, build a barrier in front of the unit to protect it from extremely heavy winds. See Fig. 4.2 and Fig. 4.3 below. Strong wind 2.
Step 3: Anchor outdoor unit The outdoor unit can be anchored to the ground or to a wall-mounted bracket.

Prepare the installation base of the unit according to the dimensions below. Air inlet Fig. 4.5 A Mounting Dimensions Air inlet Outdoor Unit Dimensions (mm) WxHxD W Air outlet Distance A (mm) Distance B (mm) 700x540x240 (27.5”x21.25”x9.
If you will install the unit on a wall-mounted bracket , do the following: CAUTION Before installing a wall-mounted unit, make sure that the wall is made of solid brick, concrete, or of similarly strong material. The wall must be able to support at least four times the weight of the unit. 1. Mark the position of bracket holes based on dimensions in the Unit Mounting Dimensions chart. 2. Pre-drill the holes for the expansion bolts. 1.
PA Y ATTENTION TO LIVE WIRE WARNING BEFORE PERFORMING ANY ELECTRICAL OR WIRING WORK, TURN OFF THE MAIN POWER TO THE SYSTEM. WARNING 1. Prepare the cable for connection: USE THE RIGHT CABLE • Indoor Power Cable (if applicable): H05VV-F or H05V2V2-F • Outdoor Power Cable: H07RN-F • Signal Cable: H07RN-F ALL WIRING MUST PERFORMED STRICTLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE WIRING DIRGRAM LOCATED INSIDE THE OUTDOOR UNIT S’ WIRE COVER. 2. Unscrew the electrical wiring cover and remove it.
2 Refrigerant Piping Connection The length of refrigerant piping will affect the performance and energy efficiency of the unit. Nominal efficiency is tested on units with a pipe length of 5 meters (16.5ft). Refer to the table below for specifications on the maximum length and drop height of piping. Maximum Length and Drop Height of Refrigerant Piping per Unit Model Model Capacity (BTU/h) < 15,000 25 (82ft) 10 (33ft) R410A Inverter Split Air Conditioner ≥ 15,000 and < 24,000 30 (98.
DO NOT DEFORM PIPE WHILE CUTTING Flare nut Be extra careful not to damage, dent, or deform the pipe while cutting. This will drastically reduce the heating efficiency of the unit. Copper pipe Step 2: Remove burrs Burrs can affect the air-tight seal of refrigerant piping connection. They must be completely removed. Fig. 5.3 1. Hold the pipe at a downward angle to prevent burrs from falling into the pipe. 4. Remove PVC tape from ends of pipe when ready to perform flaring work. 2.
6. Place flaring tool onto the form. 7. Turn the handle of the flaring tool clockwise until the pipe is fully flared. 8. Remove the flaring tool and flare form, then inspect the end of the pipe for cracks and even flaring. Instructions for Connecting Piping to Indoor Unit 1. Align the center of the two pipes that you will connect. See Fig. 5.7 . Step 4: Connect pipes When connecting refrigerant pipes, be careful not to use excessive torque or to deform the piping in any way.
Instructions for Connecting Piping to Outdoor Unit 1. Unscrew the cover from the packed valve on the side of the outdoor unit. (See Fig. 5.9 ) USE SPANNE R TO GRIP MAIN BOD Y OF VALVE Torque from tightening the flare nut can snap off other parts of valve. Valve cover Fig. 5.9 2. Remove protective caps from ends of valves. 3. Align flared pipe end with each valve, and tighten the flare nut as tightly as possible by hand. 4. Using a spanner, grip the body of the valve.
3 Air Evacuation MC Preparations and Precautions Air and foreign matter in the refrigerant circuit can cause abnormal rises in pressure, which can damage the air conditioner, reduce its efficiency, and cause injury. Use a vacuum pump and manifold gauge to evacuate the refrigerant circuit, removing any non-condensable gas and moisture from the system.
3. Open the Low Pressure side of the manifold gauge. Keep the High Pressure side closed. 4. Turn on the vacuum pump to evacuate the system. 5. Run the vacuum for at least 15 minutes, or until the Compound Meter reads -76cmHG (-10 5Pa). 6. Close the Low Pressure side of the manifold gauge, and turn off the vacuum pump. 7. Wait for 5 minutes, then check that there has been no change in system pressure. 8.
Electrical and Gas Leak Checks Electrical Safety Checks After installation, confirm that all electrical wiring is installed in accordance with local and national regulations, and according to the Installation Manual. 4 WARNING – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK ALL WIRING MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL AND NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODES, AND MUST BE INSTALLED BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN. BEFORE TEST RUN Check Grounding Work Measure grounding resistance by visual detection and with grounding resistance tester.
5 Test Run Before Test Run Only perform test run after you have completed the following steps: • • • Electrical Safety Checks – Confirm that the unit’s electrical system is safe and operating properly Gas Leak Checks – Check all flare nut connections and confirm that the system is not leaking Confirm that gas and liquid (high and low pressure) valves are fully open Test Run Instructions You should perform the Test Run for at least 30 minutes. 1. Connect power to the unit. 2.
DOUBLE-CHECK PIPE CONNECTIONS During operation, the pressure of the refrigerant circuit will increase. This may reveal leaks that were not present during your initial leak check. Take time during the Test Run to double-check that all refrigerant pipe connection points do not have leaks. Refer to Gas Leak Check section for instructions. 5. After the Test Run is successfully complete, and you confirm that all checks points in List of Checks to Perform have PASSED, do the following: Manual control button a.
