Be sure to read the manual carefully to ensure sufficient realization of the excellent performance of the unit. Be sure to drill a hole in the wall necessary for installation before attempting to install the unit. After completion of installation, be sure to perform a test operation of the unit to check for any problem, and then deliver the unit to the customer if the test results are acceptable. After completion of test operation, hand over the manual and warranty card to the customer.
Selection of Installation Place Indoor Unit Top view Install the unit at a place close to the wall facing the outside as it is necessary to perform piping connection with the outdoor unit. - It is effective to install the unit at a window side to ensure uniform distribution of indoor temperature. Install the unit at a place where there is no obstacle against the wind around the air inlet and air outlet. Install the unit horizontally at a stable, rigid place.
Electrical Work The electrical work should be performed by a specialist qualified for the work. Use the three phase power supply, and be sure to install the sub power distribution board for exclusive use with the unit(separately purchased by the user). Do not connect multiple plugs to an outlet at once because it can cause a drop in voltage, resulting in poor performance of the automatic control circuit. Be sure to install circuit breaker (Extra purchased by the user).
Electrical Work (Continued) AP50Q1C Series When connecting 3Phase 4wires 380V AC When using NFB (No Fuse Breaker) The outdoor unit circuit is shipped based on the NFB power source wiring. 1. Remove the cover of electric box on side panel of the outdoor unit. 2. Connect the electric input wires (R,S,T,N) to each terminal (R,S,T,N) of the electric box on the outdoor unit respectively. (Input wires are purchased by the user separately.) 3.
AP55Q1C/AP55Q1D Series When connecting 3Phase 3wires 220V AC 1. Remove the cover of electric box on side panel of the outdoor unit. 2. Connect the electric input wires(R, S, T) to each terminal(R, S, T) of the electric box on the outdoor unit respectively. (Input wires are purchased by the user separately.) 3. Connect the electric wires to each terminal on the indoor and outdoor unit respectively.
Installation Procedures 1. Open the front panel, and remove the flare nut. 2. Bend the connection pipe to an appropriate length using the spring bender depending upon the installation place. - Allowable pipe length : Maximum 25m - Allowable pipe drop distance : Maximum 15m - Make no more than ten bending points on the pipe When the pipe length is in excess of the standard pipe length of 5m, add the refrigerant (R22) of 75g(AP50Q1C Series) / 80g(AP55Q1C/AP55Q1D Series) for each additional 1m.
Connection of Refrigerant Piping When installing, make sure there is no leakage. When recovering the refrigerant, ground the compressor first before removing the connection pipe. If the refrigerant pipe is not properly connected and the compressor works with the service valve open, the pipe inhales the air and it makes the pressure inside of the refrigerant cycle abnormally high. It may cause explosion and injury. Flare Processing 1. Cut the pipe using the pipe cutter. 90 Oblique Roughness Burr 2.
Drilling a Hole in the Wall D rill a hole of 70mm in diameter to the outside. The drilling should be done at a distance of less than 150mm from the floor facing the indoor unit. ø70mm Less than 150mm Drain Hose E xtend the drain hose to the drain hose connected to the drain pan, and fix it with the tape or a cable-tie to prevent separation. Then make a covering of it so that water cannot flow outwardly.
Air Purge Be sure that all valve cocks are closed. T he air in the indoor unit and in the pipe must be purged. If air remains in the refrigeration pipes, it will affect the compressor, reduce cooling capacity and could lead to a malfunction. Use Vacuum Pump as shown at the figure. 1. Connect each assembly pipe to the appropriate valve on the outdoor unit and tighten the flare nut. 2.
Refrigerant Charging Air purge(at the time of new installation only) Close the gas pipe side valve by turning it clockwise. Connect the pressure gauge to the low pressure side service valve, and then open the gas pipe side valve again. Connect it to the refrigerant filling tank. OUTDOOR UNIT Gas pipe side Liquid pipe side Start cooling operation. Check the pressure of the pressure gauge. Check whether the low pressure side is within the range of 4.5~5.6kg/cm2G (outside temperature 35°C).
Check and Test Operation Check Be sure to check the following again after completion of installation. 1. Check the piping connection area for any gas leakage. Outdoor connection area Indoor connection area 2. Is the drain hose properly connected? Drain hose 3. Is the insulation of the piping in good condition? Indoor and outdoor unit connection 4. Is grounding properly made? Insulation E-31 AP50Q1C_IBIM_E 32202-2.
Check and Test Operation (Continued) Test Operation A fter checking, read the manual carefully, and perform a test operation. Then deliver the unit to the customer. ( When delivering the unit, be sure to read carefully and follow the contents of the manual.) 1. Be sure to check whether the service valve is opened before attempting to perform the test operation. 2. Never attempt to start test operation by force pressing the electronic contactor as it is very dangerous.
