• Installation work must be performed in accordance with regulations, codes, or
standards for electrical wiring and equipment in each country, region, or the installing
place.
• Do not use this equipment with air or any other unspecified refrigerant in the
refrigerant lines. Excess pressure can cause a rupture.
• During installation, make sure that the refrigerant pipe is attached firmly before you
run the compressor. Do not operate the compressor under the condition of refrigerant
piping not attached properly with 3-way valve open. This may cause abnormal
pressure in the refrigeration cycle that leads to rupture and even injury.
• When installing and relocating the air conditioner, do not mix gases other than the
specified refrigerant (R410A) to enter the refrigerant cycle.
If air or other gas enters the refrigerant cycle, the pressure inside the cycle will rise to
an abnormally high value and cause rupture, injury, etc.
• For the air conditioner to work appropriately, install it as written in this manual.
• To connect the indoor unit and outdoor unit, use air conditioner piping and cables
available locally as standard parts.
This manual describes proper connections using such installation set.
• Do not use an extension cable.
• Do not purge the air with refrigerants but use a vacuum pump to vacuum the

2. ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
2.1. Precautions for using R410A refrigerant
WARNING
• Do not introduce any substance other than the prescribed refrigerant into the
refrigeration cycle. If air enters the refrigeration cycle, the pressure in the refrigeration
cycle will become abnormally high and cause the piping to rupture.
• If there is a refrigerant leak, make sure that it does not exceed the concentration limit.
If a refrigerant leak exceeds the concentration limit, it can lead to accidents such as
oxygen starvation.
• Do not touch refrigerant that has leaked from the refrigerant pipe connections or other
areas. Touching the refrigerant directly can cause frostbite.
• If a refrigerant leak occurs during operation, immediately vacate the premises and
thoroughly ventilate the area. If the refrigerant comes in contact with a flame, it
produces a toxic gas.
• The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant
models.
However, pay careful attention to the following points:
-- Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant
(R22) models, some of the piping and installation and service tools are special. (See
the table below.)
Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant (R22) model with a new
refrigerant R410A model, always replace the conventional piping and flare nuts with
the R410A piping and flare nuts.
-- Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter
to prevent erroneous charging with conventional refrigerant (R22) and for safety.
Therefore, check beforehand. [The charging port thread diameter for R410A is
1/2-20 UNF.]
-- Be careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with
refrigerant models. Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the openings by
pinching, taping, etc.
-- When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the
composition of the gas and liquid phases. And always charge from the liquid phase
where refrigerant composition is stable.
2.2. Special tools for R410A refrigerant
WARNING
To install a unit that uses R410A refrigerant, use dedicated tools and piping materials
that have been manufactured specifically for R410A use. Because the pressure of
R410A refrigerant is approximately 1.6 times higher than R22, failure to use dedicated
piping material or improper installation can cause rupture or injury. Furthermore, it can
cause serious accidents such as water leakage, electric shock, or fire.
Tool name
Changes
Gauge manifold
Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a conventional
gauge. To prevent erroneous mixing of other refrigerants, the
diameter of each port has been changed.
It is recommended the gauge with seals –0.1 to 5.3 MPa (-1 to
53 bar) for high pressure. –0.1 to 3.8 MPa (-1 to 38 bar) for low
pressure.
Charging hose
To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base
size were changed.
Vacuum pump
A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a
vacuum pump adapter.
Gas leakage detector Special gas leakage detector for HFC refrigerant R410A.
2.3. Accessories
WARNING
For installation purposes, be sure to use the parts supplied by the manufacturer or other
prescribed parts. The use of non-prescribed parts can cause serious accidents such as

5.2. Brazing
CAUTION
• If air or another type of refrigerant enters the refrigeration cycle, the internal pressure
in the refrigeration cycle will become abnormally high and prevent the unit from
exerting its full performance.
• Apply nitrogen gas while brazing the pipes. If a pipe is brazed without applying
nitrogen gas, an oxidation film will be created.

This can degrade performance or damage the
Cap
parts in the unit (such as the compressor or
valves).
Nitrogen gas
Nitrogen gas pressure: 0.02 MPa
(= pressure felt sufficiently on

• For brazing material, use phosphor copper that does not require flux. Do not use flux
to braze pipes. If the flux is the chlorine type, it will cause the pipes to corrode.
Furthermore, if the flux contains fluoride, it will adversely affect the refrigerant pipe
system such as by degrading the refrigerant.
If fluoride is contained, quality of refrigerant deteriorates and affects the refrigerant
piping system.
• Be sure to install the pipe against the port on the indoor unit and the outdoor unit
correctly. If the centering is improper, the flare nut cannot be tightened smoothly. If
the flare nut is forced to turn, the threads will be damaged.
• Do not remove the flare nut from the outdoor unit pipe until immediately before
connecting the connection pipe.
• After installing the piping, make sure that the connection pipes do not touch the
compressor or outer panel. If the pipes touch the compressor or outer panel, they will
vibrate and produce noise.
(1) Detach the caps and plugs from the pipes.
(2) Center the pipe against the port on the outdoor unit, and then turn the flare nut by
hand.
(3) Tighten the flare nut of the connection pipe at the outdoor unit valve connector.

5.3. Flare connection (pipe connection)
CAUTION
• Do not use mineral oil on a flared part. Prevent mineral oil from getting into the
system as this would reduce the lifetime of the units.
• While brazing the pipes, be sure to blow dry nitrogen gas through them.
• The maximum lengths of this product are shown in the table. If the units are further
apart than this, correct operation cannot be guaranteed.
CAUTION
Hold the torque wrench at its grip, keeping it in a right angle with the pipe, in order to
tighten the flare nut correctly.
• Outer panel may be distorted if fastened only with a wrench. Be sure to fix the
elementary part with a spanner and fasten with a wrench (refer to below diagram).
• Do not apply force to the blank cap of the valve or hang a wrench, etc., on the cap. It
may cause leakage of refrigerant.

• Before operating the compressor, install the pipes and securely connect them.
Otherwise, if the pipes are not installed and if the valves are open when the
compressor operates, air could enter the refrigeration cycle. If this happens, the
pressure in the refrigeration cycle will become abnormally high and cause damage or
injury.
• After the installation, make sure there is no refrigerant leakage. If the refrigerant leaks
into the room and becomes exposed to a source of fire such as a fan heater, stove, or
burner, it produces a toxic gas.
• Do not subject the pipes to strong shocks during the sealing test. It can rupture the
pipes and cause serious injury.

5.6. Additional charging
CAUTION
Do not block the walls and the ceiling until the sealing test and the charging of the
refrigerant gas have been completed.
• After connecting the pipes, perform a sealing test.
• Make sure that the 3-way valves are closed before performing a sealing test.
• Pressurize nitrogen gas to 4.15 MPa to perform the sealing test.
• Add nitrogen gas to both the liquid pipes and the gas pipes.
• Check all flare connections and welds. Then, check that the pressure has not
decreased.
• Compare the pressures after pressurizing and letting it stand for 24 hours, and check
that the pressure has not decreased.
* When the outdoor air temperature changes 41°F (5°C), the test pressure changes
0.05 MPa. If the pressure has dropped, the pipe joints may be leaking.
• If a leak is found, immediately repair it and perform the sealing test again.
• After completing the sealing test, release the nitrogen gas from both valves.
• Release the nitrogen gas slowly.
Outdoor unit

Vacuum pump
WARNING
When moving and installing the air conditioner, do not mix gas other than the specified
refrigerant R410A inside the refrigerant cycle.
If air or other gas enters the refrigerant cycle, the pressure inside the cycle will rise to an
abnormally high value and cause breakage, injury, etc.
CAUTION
• After vacuuming the system, add refrigerant.
• Do not reuse recovered refrigerant.
• When charging the refrigerant R410A, always use an electronic scales for refrigerant
charging (to measure the refrigerant by weight). Adding more refrigerant than the
specified amount will cause a malfunction.
• When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition
of the gas and liquid phases, and always charge from the liquid phase side
whose composition is stable. Adding refrigerant through the gas pipe will cause a
malfunction.
• Check if the steel cylinder has a siphon installed or not before filling. (There is an
indication “with siphon for filling liquid” on the steel cylinder.)

5.5. Vacuum process
CAUTION
• Perform a refrigerant leakage test (air tightness test) to check for leaks using nitrogen
gas while all valves in the outdoor unit are closed. (Use the test pressure indicated on
the nameplate.)
• Be sure to evacuate the refrigerant system using a vacuum pump.
• The refrigerant pressure may sometimes not rise when a closed valve is opened after
the system is evacuated using a vacuum pump. This is caused by the closure of the
refrigerant system of the outdoor unit by the electronic expansion valve. This will not
affect the operation of the unit.
• If the system is not evacuated sufficiently, its performance will drop.
• Use a clean gauge manifold and charging hose that were designed specifically for
use with R410A. Using the same vacuum equipment for different refrigerants may
damage the vacuum pump or the unit.
• Do not purge the air with refrigerants, but use a vacuum pump to evacuate the
system.
• Be sure to use the special tools for R410A for pressure resistance and to avoid mixing
of impure substances.
• If the units are further apart than the maximum pipe length, correct operation can not
be guaranteed.
• Make sure to back closing valve after refrigerant charging. Otherwise, the compressor
may fail.
• Minimize refrigerant release to the air. Excessive release is prohibited under the
Freon Collection and Destruction Law.

6.1. Notes for electrical wiring
WARNING
• Wiring connections must be performed by a qualified person in accordance with the
specifications. The voltage rating for this product is 208-230 V at 60 Hz. It should be
operated within the range of 188 to 253 V.
• Before connecting the wires, make sure the power supply is OFF.
• Use a dedicated power supply circuit. Insufficient power capacity in the electrical
circuit or improper wiring may cause electric shock or fire.
• Install a breaker at the power supply for each outdoor unit. Improper breaker selection
can cause electric shock or fire.
• Install a leakage circuit breaker in accordance with the related laws and regulations.
An improperly installed electrical box cover can cause serious accidents such as
electric shock or fire through exposure to dust or water.
• A circuit breaker is installed in the permanent wiring. Always use a circuit that can
trip all the poles of the wiring and has an isolation distance of at least 1/8 in (3 mm)
between the contacts of each pole.
• Use designated cables and power cables. Improper use may cause electric shock or
fire by poor connection, insufficient insulation, or over current.
• Do not modify power cable, use extension cable or branch wiring. Improper use may
cause electric shock or fire by poor connection, insufficient insulation or over current.
• Connect the connector cable securely to the terminal. Check no mechanical force
bears on the cables connected to the terminals. Faulty installation can cause a fire.
• Use ring type terminals and tighten the terminal screws to the specified torques,
otherwise, abnormal overheating may be produced and possibly cause serious
damage inside the unit.
• Make sure to secure the insulation portion of the connector cable with the cable
clamp. Damaged insulation can cause a short circuit.
• Fix cables so that cables do not make contact with the pipes (especially on high
pressure side). Do not make power supply cable and connection cable come in
contact with valves (Gas).
• Never install a power factor improvement condenser. Instead of improving the power
factor, the condenser may overheat.
• Be sure to perform the earthing (grounding) work.
Do not connect earthing (grounding) wires to a gas pipe, water pipe, lightning rod or
earthing (grounding) wire for a telephone.
-- Connection to a gas pipe may cause a fire or explosion if gas leaks.
-- Connection to a water pipe is not an effective earthing (grounding) method if PVC
pipe is used.
-- Connection to the earthing (grounding) wire of a telephone or to a lightning rod may
cause a dangerously abnormal rise in the electrical potential if lightning strikes.
Improper earthing (grounding) work can cause electric shocks.
• Securely install the electrical box cover on the unit. An improperly installed service
panel can cause serious accidents such as electric shock or fire through exposure to
dust or water.

6.2. Knock out holes for wiring
CAUTION
• Be careful not to deform or scratch the panel while opening the knock out holes.
• When cables are routed from the unit, a protection sleeve for the conduits can be
inserted at the knock out hole.
• If you do not use a wire conduit, be sure to protect the wires to prevent the edge of
the knock out hole from cutting the wires.
• It is recommended to apply anti-rust paint to the edge of the knock out hole.
• Knock out holes are provided for wiring. (Fig. A)

CAUTION
• The primary power supply capacity is for the air conditioner itself, and does not
include the concurrent use of other devices.
• Do not start operation until the refrigerant is charged completely. The compressor will
fail if it is operated before the refrigerant piping charging is complete.
• Connection cable between indoor unit and outdoor unit is 208-230 V.
• Be sure not to remove thermistor sensor etc. from power wiring and connection
wiring. Compressor may fail if operated while removed.
• Start wiring work after closing branch switch and over current breaker.
• Use an earth leakage breaker that is capable of handling high frequencies. Because
the outdoor unit is inverter controlled, a high-frequency earth leakage breaker is
necessary to prevent a malfunction of the breaker itself.
• When using an earth leakage breaker that has been designed solely for earth (ground)
fault protection, be sure to install a fuse-equipped switch or circuit breaker.
• Do not connect the AC power supply to the connection line terminal board. Improper
wiring can damage the entire system.
• Do not use crossover power supply wiring for the outdoor unit.
• If the temperature surrounding the breaker is too high, the amperage at which the
breaker cuts out may decrease.
