SPLIT TYPE ROOM AIR CONDITIONER
INSTALLATION MANUAL
(PART NO. 9312853014-01)
The basic installation work procedures are the same as conventional refrigerant (R22) models.
However, pay careful attention to the following points:
(1) Since the working pressure is 1.6 times higher than that of conventional refrigerant(R22) mod-
els, some of the piping and installation and service tools are special.(See the table below.)
Especially, when replacing a conventional refrigerant(R22) model with a new refrigerant R410A
model, always replace the conventional piping and flare nuts with the R410A piping and flare
nuts.
(2) Models that use refrigerant R410A have a different charging port thread diameter to prevent
erroneous charging with conventional refrigerant(R22) and for safety. Therefore, check
beforehand.[The charging port thread diameter for R410A is 1/2 threads per inch.]
(3) Be more careful that foreign matter (oil, water, etc.) does not enter the piping than with
refrigerant(R22) models. Also, when storing the piping ,securely seal the opening by pinch-
ing, taping, etc.
(4) When charging the refrigerant, take into account the slight change in the composition of the
gas and liquid phases, and always charge from the liquid phase side whose composition is
stable.
This air conditioner uses new refrigerant HFC (R410A).
Special tools for R410A
Copper pipes
It is necessary to use seamless copper pipes and it is desir-
able that the amount of residual oil is less than 40 mg/10m.
Do not use copper pipes having a collapsed, deformed or
discolored portion (especially on the interior surface). Other-
wise, the expansion value or capillary tube may become
blocked with contaminants.
As an air conditioner using R410A incurs pressure higher than
when using R22, it is necessary to choose adequate materi-
als.
Thicknesses of copper pipes used with R410A are as shown in Table1.Never us copper pipes thinner than 0.8mm even
when it is available on the market.

Contents of change
Pressure is high and cannot be measured with a conventional gauge. To prevent erroneous
mixing of other refrigerants, the diameter of each port has been changed.
It is recommended the gauge with seals-0.1 to 5.3 MPa (-1 to 53 bar) for high pressure.
-0.1 to 3.8 MPa (-1 to 38 bar) for low pressure.
To increase pressure resistance, the hose material and base size were changed.
A conventional vacuum pump can be used by installing a vacuum pump adapter.

(1) Do not use the existing (for R22) piping and flare nuts.
• If the existing materials are used, the pressure inside the refrigerant cycle will rise and cause breakage, injury,
etc.(Use the special R410A materials.)
(2) When installing and relocating the air conditioner, do not mix gases other than the specified refrigerant(R410A)
to enter the refrigerant cycle.
• If air or other gas enters the refrigerant cycle, the pressure inside the cycle will rise to an abnormally high value
and cause breakage, injury, etc.
WARNING
Decide the mounting position with the customer as follows:
1. INDOOR UNIT
(1) Install the indoor unit level on a strong wall which is not subject to
vibration.
(2) The inlet and outlet ports should not be obstructed : the air should
be able to blow all over the room.
(3) Install the unit near an electric outlet or special branch circuit.
(4) Do not install the unit where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
(5) Install the unit where connection to the outdoor unit is easy.
(6) Install the unit where the drain pipe can be easily installed.
(7) Take servicing, etc. into consideration and leave the spaces shown
in (Fig. 2). Also install the unit where the filter can be removed.
2. OUTDOOR UNIT
(1) If possible, do not install the unit where it will be exposed to direct
sunlight. (If necessary, install a blind that does not interfere with
the air flow.)
(2) Do not install the unit where a strong wind blows or where it is very
dusty.
(3) Do not install the unit where people pass.
(4) Take you neighbors into consideration so that they are not disturbed
by air blowing into their windows or by noise.
(5) Provide the space shown in Fig. 2 so that the air flow is not blocked.
Also for efficient operation, leave open three of the four directions
front, rear, and both sides.
WARNING
Install at a place that can withstand the weight of the
indoor and outdoor units and install positively so that
the units will not topple or fall.
CAUTION
(1) Do not install where there is the danger of com-
bustible gas leakage.
(2) Do not install near heat sources.
(3) If children under 10 years old may approach the
unit, take preventive measures so that they can-
not reach the unit.
(4) Install the indoor unit on the wall where the height
from the floors more than 230 cm.

For authorized service personnel only.
(1) For the room air conditioner to operate satisfactory, install it as outlined in this installation manual.
(2) Connect the indoor unit and outdoor unit with the air conditioner piping and cords available standards parts.
This installation manual describes the correct connections using the standard accessories and the parts speci-
fied in this installation manual.
(3) Have installation work done by authorized service personnel only.
(4) Never cut the power cord, lengthen or shorten the cord, or change the plug.
(5) Also do not use an extension cord.
(6) Plug in the power cord plug firmly. If the receptacle is loose, repair it before using the room air conditioner.
(7) Do not turn on the power until all installation work is complete.
WARNING
●
Be careful not to scratch the air conditioner when handling it.
●
After installation, explain correct operation to the customer, using the operating manual.
●
Let the customer keep this installation manual because it is used when the air conditioner is serviced or
moved.
●
