Warning:
Do not use refrigerant other than the type indicated in the manuals provided
with the unit and on the nameplate.
- Doing so may cause the unit or pipes to burst, or result in explosion or fire during
use, during repair, or at the time of disposal of the unit.
- It may also be in violation of applicable laws.
- MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATION cannot be held responsible for mal-
functions or accidents resulting from the use of the wrong type of refrigerant.
Caution:
•
Use refrigerant piping made of C1220 (Cu-DHP) phosphorus deoxidized
copper as specified in the JIS H3300 “Copper and copper alloy seamless
pipes and tubes”. In addition, be sure that the inner and outer surfaces of
the pipes are clean and free of hazardous sulphur, oxides, dust/dirt, shav-
ing particles, oils, moisture, or any other contaminant.
•
Never use existing refrigerant piping.
- The large amount of chlorine in conventional refrigerant and refrigerator oil
in the existing piping will cause the new refrigerant to deteriorate.
•
Store the piping to be used during installation indoors and keep both
ends of the piping sealed until just before brazing.
- If dust, dirt, or water gets into the refrigerant cycle, the oil will deteriorate and
the compressor may fail.
•
Use ester oil, ether oil or alkylbenzene (small amount) as the refrigerator
oil to coat flares and flange connections. (For models using R410A or
R407C)
- The refrigerant used in the unit is highly hygroscopic and mixes with water
and will degrade the refrigerator oil.
6. Refrigerant pipe and drain pipe specifications
To avoid dew drops, provide sufficient antisweating and insulating work to the re-
frigerant and drain pipes.
When using commercially available refrigerant pipes, be sure to wind commer-
cially available insulating material (with a heat-resisting temperature of more than
100 °C and thickness given below) onto both liquid and gas pipes.
Be also sure to wind commercially available insulating material (with a form
polyethylene’s specific gravity of 0.03 and thickness given below) onto all pipes
which pass through rooms.
1
Select the thickness of insulating material by pipe size.
2
If the unit is used on the highest story of a building and under conditions of
high temperature and humidity, it is necessary to use pipe size and insulating
material’s thickness more than those given in the table above.
3
If there are customer’s specifications, simply follow them.

7. Connecting refrigerant pipes and drain pipes
7.1. Refrigerant piping work
This piping work must be done in accordance with the installation manuals for both
outdoor unit and BC controller (simultaneous cooling and heating series R2).
•
Series R2 is designed to operate in a system that the refrigerant pipe from an
outdoor unit is received by BC controller and branches at the BC controller to
connect between indoor units.
•
For constraints on pipe length and allowable difference of elevation, refer to
the outdoor unit manual.
•
The method of pipe connection is brazing connection.

Be sure to use non-oxidative brazing for brazing to ensure that no for-
eign matter or moistu re enter into the pipe.

Provide a metal brace to support the refrigerant pipe so that no load is
imparted to the indoor unit end pipe. This metal brace should be pro-
vided 50 cm away from the indoor unit’s flare connection.

tion
Connecting refrigerant piping
•
After connecting refrigerant piping, insulate the joints (flared joints) with ther-
mal insulation tubing as shown below.

Caution:
Pull out the thermal insulation on the refrigerant piping at the site, braze the pip-
ing, and replace the insulation in its original position.
Take care to ensure that condensation does not form on exposed copper piping.

Caution:
Before removing the brazing, cut off the end of the pipe to release any gas. If
the gas is not released, the pipe may fly off.
1.
Remove and discard the rubber bung which is inserted in the end of the unit
piping.
2. Flare the end of the site refrigerant piping.
3. Pull out the thermal insulation on the site refrigerant piping, braze the unit
piping, and replace the insulation in its original position.
*
Before brazing the refrigerant piping,
always wrap the piping on the main
body, and the thermal insulation piping, with damp cloths to prevent heat
shrinkage and burning the thermal insulation tubing.
Take care to ensure
that the flame does not come into contact with the main body itself.
Refrigerant amount adjustment
Refer to the installation manual for the outdoor unit for details on adjusting the
amount of refrigerant.
