3.3B.3. INSTALLING THE UNIT
(1) Fixing method of the unit
• To prevent overturning, fi x the unit to the fl oor or the wall.
• To avoid the vibration of the unit, insert the spacer between the unit and the fl oor or the
wall, and fi x it.
(2) Leveling
Base horizontal direction leveling on top of the unit.
Level
10 mm or less
PROHIBITED
OK
Level
PROHIBITED
OK
10 mm or less
CAUTION
Fasten the unit securely with Special nuts A and B.
4. PIPE INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Be careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping with refrigerant
R410A models. Also, when storing the piping, securely seal the openings by pinching,
taping, etc.
While brazing the pipes, be sure to purge with dry nitrogen gas.
4.1. Selecting the pipe material
CAUTION
Do not use existing pipes.
Use pipes that have clean external and internal sides without any contamination which
may cause trouble during use, such as sulfur, oxide, dust, cutting waste, oil, or water.
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes.
Material : Phosphor deoxidized seamless copper pipes
It is desirable that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10 m.
Do not use copper pipes that have a collapsed, deformed, or discolored portion
(especially on the interior surface). Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube
may become blocked with contaminants.
Improper pipe selection will degrade performance. As an air conditioner using R410A
incurs pressure higher than when using conventional refrigerant, it is necessary to
choose adequate materials.
•
Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in the table.
•
Never use copper pipes thinner than those indicated in the table even if they are
available on the market.

4.2. Pipe requirement
CAUTION
Refer to the Installation Manual of the outdoor unit for description of the length of
connecting pipe or for difference of its elevation.
• Use pipe with water-resistant heat insulation.
CAUTION
Install heat insulation around both the gas and liquid pipes. Failure to do so may cause
water leaks.
Use heat insulation with heat resistance above 120 °C. (Reverse cycle model only)
In addition, if the humidity level at the installation location of the refrigerant piping is
expected to exceed 70 %, install heat insulation around the refrigerant piping. If the
expected humidity level is 70-80 %, use heat insulation that is 15 mm or thicker and if
the expected humidity exceeds 80 %, use heat insulation that is 20 mm or thicker. If
heat insulation is used that is not as thick as specifi ed, condensation may form on the
surface of the insulation. In addition, use heat insulation with heat conductivity of 0.045
W/(m·K) or less (at 20 °C).
