10.2. 3 procedures for adding refrigerant
Procedure 1: Adding refrigerant by using the automatic
refrigerant charging function (recommended)
How to connect the tank?
When the refrigerant tank is connected and the specified operation is
performed, the appropriate amount of refrigerant will be charged into
the system. After charging, the system will stop automatically. The
refrigerant must be charged according to the procedure described
below.
Automatic refrigerant charging procedure
1
Open the liquid and gas side stop valves completely.
2
Turn on the power of the outdoor unit and indoor units.
3
Make sure that the led on the PCB on the outdoor unit are as
shown in the table below. This indicates that the system is
operating normally.
Led state
Throughout the manual the state of the leds is indicated as
follows:
If H2P is lit up, check the type of error based on the error code in
the remote controller and correct the error in accordance with
"12.4. Test operation" on page 19
.
4
Automatically charge the refrigerant according to the procedure
described below.
4.1 Press
once.
4.2 Press
for 5 seconds. The unit will start running.
If the led display below appears, the automatic refrigerant
charging restriction has been exceeded. Additional refrigerant
must be charged by calculating the additional refrigerant
charging amount.
or
If the led display below appears, check the indoor unit
connection capacity.
If the led display below appears, the liquid and gas side stop
valves may be closed.
4.3 When the led indication becomes as shown in the table below in
about 15 to 30 minutes after start of operation, open valve A at
once to start charging of the refrigerant.
Immediately after starting charging of the refrigerant by opening
valve A, press
once. When
is not pressed
within 10 minutes after the led indication is shown, charging is
stopped.

CAUTION
■
Make sure to turn ON the power 6 hours before
starting the operation. This is necessary to warm the
crankcase by the electric heater.
■
At least 30 minutes is needed for automatic charging
of the refrigerant when 3 kg of additional refrigerant is
being added at an outside temperature of
approximately 30°C. The charging time depends on
the amount of charged refrigerant and on the outside
temperature.
■
Automatic refrigerant charging is NOT possible if the
following restrictions are exceeded:
■
Outside temperature: 0°C DB~43°C DB
■
Indoor temperature: 20°C DB~32°C DB
■
Indoor unit connection capacity: 50%~130%
Note that valve A must be closed!
NOTE
When an indoor unit is connected to the
refrigerant system and the indoor unit is turned
off, automatic charging will fail.
