Function and Control
Outdoor Unit
(A) Compressor (M1C)
Inverter drive unit varies compressor operating frequency to control capacity and other
factors.
(B) Electronic Expansion Valve (Y1E)
Provides control to maintain optimum operating condition for high efficiency.
(C) Four Way Valve (Y1S)
Changes operation of cooling / heating.

Coil energized : heating
Coil not energized : cooling
Outdoor Air Thermistor (R1T)
Used for startup condition control and defrost control.
Discharge Pipe Thermistor (R2T)
Used for discharge temperature protection during compression operation.
Suction Pipe Thermistor (R3T)
Used for suction super heat control by electronic expansion valve.
Heat Exchanger Distributor Pipe Thermistor (R4T)
•
Used for calculation of outdoor heat exchanger subcooling during cooling operation.
•
Used for judgement of the defrost IN and OUT condition.
Intermediate Heat Exchanger Thermistor (R5T)
Used for calculation of high pressure during cooling operation. (Calculate Pc by detected
temperature and R-410A refrigerant characteristics)
