• Area with high salt content, such as at the seaside. It will deteriorate metal parts,
causing the parts to fail or the unit to leak water.
• Area
fi
lled with mineral oil or containing a large amount of splashed oil or steam. It will
deteriorate plastic parts, causing the parts to fail or the unit to leak water.

gas, chlorine gas, acid, or alkali. It will cause the copper pipes and brazed joints to
corrode, which can cause refrigerant leakage.
• Area containing equipment that generates electromagnetic interference. It will cause
the control system to malfunction, preventing the unit from operating normally.

fi
bers or
fl
ammable dust, or volatile in

ammables such as paint thinner or gasoline. If gas leaks
and settles around the unit, it can cause a
fi
re.

fl
ammable gas in the
