11. Installation
Outdoor unit location requirements
Examine the area where the outdoor unit could be
located. Consider the following:
•
What location will meet minimum clearances and
provide optimal product performance?
•
Is there an existing level and hard foundation, such
as a concrete pad, that will support the unit weight
and produce minimal vibration? Installation on
uneven ground may result in abnormal vibrations,
noise, or problems with the unit.
•
Does the unit need to be mounted on the wall?
•
Where are the dedicated circuit breaker and
disconnect switch located? How will you connect
them to the unit?
•
How will you route the piping bundle from the indoor
unit? Is the location as close as possible to where the
indoor unit will be installed, to minimize the length
of piping and cables?
•
Will the unit be sheltered from the wind? In a
high-wind area, you may need to build a protective
fence around the unit.
•
Where will the condensate drain?
WARNING
•
The drain location must allow condensate to drain
properly and prevent ice from forming on the unit
in winter. If a block of ice falls from the unit, it may
result in death, serious injury, or property damage.
Improper or inadequate draining may result in water
overflowing and property damage.
CAUTION
• Do not connect the drain hose to existing waste
pipes as odors may arise.
Installation on an exterior wall
If the outdoor unit must be installed on an exterior wall,
you will need an L-bracket to support the unit. This
bracket is not included with the unit.
WARNING
•
The wall must be capable of supporting the weight
of both the L-bracket and the outdoor unit. If the unit
falls, it may result in crushing, electric shock, fire, or
explosion that could cause death, severe personal
injury, or property damage.
Installation Guide at the seashore
Make sure to follow below guides when installing at the
seashore.
1
Do not install the product in a place where it is
directly exposed to sea water and sea breeze.
-
Make sure to install the product behind a
structure (such as building) that can block see
breeze.
-
Even when it is inevitable to install the product in
seashore, make sure that product is not directly
exposed to sea breeze by installing a protection
wall.
2
Consider that the salinity particles clinging to the
external panels should be sufficiently washed out.
3
Because the re sidual water at the bottom of the
outdoor unit significantly promotes corrosion, make
sure that the slope does not disturb drainage.
-
Keep the floor level so that rain does not
accumulate.
-
Be careful not to block the drain hole due to
foreign substance.
4
When product is installed in seashore, periodically
clean it with water to remove attached salinity.
5
Make sure to install the product in a place that
provides smooth water drainage. Especially, ensure
that the base part has good drainage.
6
If the product is damaged during the installation or
maintenance, make sure to repair it.
7
Check the condition of the product periodically.
-
Check the installation site every 3 months and
perform anti-corrosion treatment such as R-Pro
supplied by SAMSUNG (Code : MOK-220SA) or
commercial water repellent grease and wax, etc.,
based on the product condition.
-
When the product is to be shut down for a long
period of time, such as off-peak hours, take
appropriate measures like covering the product.
8
If the product installed within 500m of seashore,
special anti-corrosion treatment is required.
