8.
Removing the 4-way valve coil (21S4), linear expansion
valve coil (LEV-A) and bypass valve coil (SV)
(1) Remove the service panel. (See Figure 1)
(2) Remove the top panel. (See Figure 1)
(3) Remove the electrical parts box. (See Photo 3)
[Removing the 4-way valve coil]
(4) Remove 4-way valve coil fixing screw (M4 × 6).
(5) Remove the 4-way valve coil by sliding the coil toward you.
(6)
Disconnect the connector 21S4 (green) on the controller
board in the electrical parts box.
[Removing the linear expansion valve coil]
(4)
Remove the linear expansion valve coil by sliding the coil upward.
(5)
Disconnect the connectors, LEV-A (white), on the controller
circuit board in the electrical parts box.
[Removing the bypass valve coil]
(4)
Remove the bypass valve coil fixing screw (M4 × 6).
(5)
Remove the bypass valve coil by sliding the coil upward.
(6)
Disconnect the connector SV2 (blue) on the controller
circuit board in the electrical parts box.
9. Removing the 4-way valve
(1) Remove the service panel. (See Figure 1)
(2) Remove the top panel. (See Figure 1)
(3) Remove the electrical parts box. (See Photo 3)
(4)
Remove 3 valve bed fixing screws (4 × 10), 4 ball valve
and stop valve fixing screws (5 × 16), then remove the
valve bed.
(5)
Remove 3 right side panel fixing screw (5 × 12) in the rear
of the unit and then remove the right side panel.
(6) Remove the 4-way valve coil. (See Photo 8)
(7) Recover refrigerant.
(8) Remove the welded part of 4-way valve.
Note 1: Recover refrigerant without spreading it in the air.
Note 2: The welded part can be removed easily by
removing the right side panel.
Note 3: When installing the 4-way valve, cover it with a wet
cloth to prevent it from heating (250˚F or more), then
braze the pipes so that the inside of pipes are not
oxidized.
