CAUTION

When  the  refrigerant  charging  procedure  is  done  or  when
pausing,  close  the  valve  of  the  refrigerant  tank
immediately.  If  the  valve  is  NOT  closed  immediately,
remaining  pressure  might  charge  additional  refrigerant.

Possible consequence: 

Incorrect refrigerant amount.

1.2.4

Brine

If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide
of your application for more information.

WARNING

The selection of the brine MUST be in accordance with the
applicable legislation.

WARNING

Take  sufficient  precautions  in  case  of  brine  leakage.  If
brine  leaks,  ventilate  the  area  immediately  and  contact
your local dealer.

WARNING

The  ambient  temperature  inside  the  unit  can  get  much
higher than that of the room, e.g. 70°C. In case of a brine
leak,  hot  parts  inside  the  unit  can  create  a  hazardous
situation.

WARNING

The  use  and  installation  of  the  application  MUST  comply
with the safety and environmental precautions specified in
the applicable legislation.

1.2.5

Water

If applicable. See the installation manual or installer reference guide
of your application for more information.

NOTICE

Make  sure  water  quality  complies  with  EU  directive
98/83 EC.

1.2.6

Electrical

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTROCUTION

▪ Turn  OFF  all  power  supply  before  removing  the

switch  box  cover,  connecting  electrical  wiring  or
touching electrical parts.

▪ Disconnect  the  power  supply  for  more  than  1  minute,

and measure the voltage at the terminals of main circuit
capacitors  or  electrical  components  before  servicing.
The  voltage  MUST  be  less  than  50  V  DC  before  you
can touch electrical components. For the location of the
terminals, see the wiring diagram.

▪ Do NOT touch electrical components with wet hands.

▪ Do  NOT  leave  the  unit  unattended  when  the  service

cover is removed.

WARNING

If  NOT  factory  installed,  a  main  switch  or  other  means  for
disconnection,  having  a  contact  separation  in  all  poles
providing  full  disconnection  under  overvoltage  category  III
condition, MUST be installed in the fixed wiring.

WARNING

▪ ONLY use copper wires.

▪ Make sure the field wiring complies with the applicable

legislation.

▪ All field wiring MUST be performed in accordance with

the wiring diagram supplied with the product.

▪ NEVER  squeeze  bundled  cables  and  make  sure  they

do  NOT  come  in  contact  with  the  piping  and  sharp
edges. Make sure no external pressure is applied to the
terminal connections.

▪ Make sure to install earth wiring. Do NOT earth the unit

to  a  utility  pipe,  surge  absorber,  or  telephone  earth.
Incomplete earth may cause electrical shock.

▪ Make  sure  to  use  a  dedicated  power  circuit.  NEVER

use a power supply shared by another appliance.

▪ Make  sure  to  install  the  required  fuses  or  circuit

breakers.

▪ Make sure to install an earth leakage protector. Failure

to do so may cause electric shock or fire.

▪ When installing the earth leakage protector, make sure

it  is  compatible  with  the  inverter  (resistant  to  high
frequency electric noise) to avoid unnecessary opening
of the earth leakage protector.

NOTICE

Precautions when laying power wiring:

▪ Do  NOT  connect  wiring  of  different  thicknesses  to  the

power  terminal  block  (slack  in  the  power  wiring  may
cause abnormal heat).

▪ When  connecting  wiring  which  is  the  same  thickness,

do as shown in the figure above.

▪ For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect

firmly,  then  secure  to  prevent  outside  pressure  being
exerted on the terminal board.

▪ Use  an  appropriate  screwdriver  for  tightening  the

terminal  screws.  A  screwdriver  with  a  small  head  will
damage  the  head  and  make  proper  tightening
impossible.

▪ Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.

WARNING

▪ After  finishing  the  electrical  work,  confirm  that  each

electrical  component  and  terminal  inside  the  electrical
components box is connected securely.

▪ Make sure all covers are closed before starting up the

unit.

NOTICE

Only applicable if the power supply is three‑phase, and the
compressor has an ON/OFF starting method.

If  there  exists  the  possibility  of  reversed  phase  after  a
momentary black out and the power goes on and off while
the  product  is  operating,  attach  a  reversed  phase
protection  circuit  locally.  Running  the  product  in  reversed
phase can break the compressor and other parts.
