Preface
This system is a modular zone controllable air conditioning system of great sophistication which is capable of assembly in a
variety of different configurations. It would, however, be no exaggeration to say that the full potential of the systemÕs functions
can only be achieved in combination with the skills of those involved in the design of the equipment itself and those
responsible for the installation work.
As the move towards intelligent buildings has gathered momentum, so we have also been seeing ever more a growing
demand for a wider range of independently controllable building related functions.
Against this background there have also quite naturally been calls for the development of more distributed types of air
conditioning systems while at the same time taking full account of the need to use energy economically by demand matching
in view of the huge annual increases in the demand for electric power seen in recent years.
We have therefore prepared this installation manual to enable installation work to be handled confidently on the basis of a
clear understanding of the special features of this system. We have paid particular attention to points of difference in
installation procedure between this system and the more traditional package and room air conditioning system.
The manual is designed specifically to cater for those supervising installation work and concentrates on those products which
are currently on the market. Essential points which need to be taken into consideration when designing an appropriate
configuration for the system and in each of the separate installation processes have also been included.
We have also added a section covering problems which have arisen in connection with installation work undertaken to date in
an attempt to prevent the recurrence of the same problems.
Please be sure to read this manual thoroughly before starting installation work in order to ensure that all such work is carried
out with maximum efficiency and to maximum effect.
The following technical documents are also available from Daikin. Please use these documents together with this manual to
conduct efficient servicing.

! The total capacity of connected indoor units must be within a range of 50 to 130% of the
rated capacity of the outdoor unit.
! In some models, it is not possible to connect the maximum number of connectable indoor
units. Select models so the total capacity of connected indoor units conforms to the
specification.
Points to Bear in Mind at the System Design Si39-303
2. Points to Bear in Mind at the System Design

2.1 Points Relating to the Performance of the Air
Conditioning Units
A number of points need to be borne in mind at the system design stage in order to ensure the mechanical
efficiency of the air conditioning units.
1. Path of refrigerant piping between outdoor and indoor units, height difference and pipe length.
! Path of refrigerant piping should be determined such that length of piping is kept to a minimum.
! Piping should be kept within permissible limits in terms of length and height difference.
2. Positioning of outdoor unit
! Position such that maintenance and repairs can be carried out. (leave room for servicing)
! Avoid reduction of airflow and short circuiting
! Avoid reduction of airflow and short circuiting
3. Positioning of indoor unit

! Position such that maintenance and repairs can be carried out. (inspection port positions and size
check)
! Avoid short circuiting
! Ensure sufficient drain pipe gradient (need for drain-up kit etc.)
! In the case of a ceiling mounted type make sure ceiling depth is sufficient (need for high performance
filter, etc.)
Si39-303 Points to Bear in Mind at the System Design
2.2 The Installation is of Vital Importance

The analysis of major installation problems experienced during the year of 1988 is shown below;
How these installation problems affect an equipment are shown below:
2.3 Striking a Balance between System Installation and

General Construction Work (Comprehensive Flow Chart)
Note: 1. The division of the work should be thoroughly clarified. (This applies particularly to work relating to the
connection of control wiring, fitting of remote controller and central control panel, boundary work on
areas such as connection of drain piping and humidification supply piping, inspection and foundation)
2. Keep a constant check on the progress of the construction work to avoid deviations from the air
conditioning work schedule.
3. For sleeve and insert work the positions of ceiling girders should be confirmed and sleeve and insert
requirement, hole diameters, positioning and numbers decided. This is particularly important in the case
of sleeves for drain piping.
2.4 Points to Bear in Mind when Preparing the Contract

Drawings
The following points should be borne in mind when preparing the contract drawings from the original
drawings and the execution drawings.
The contract drawings for the air conditioning system are blueprints for the performance of the necessary
work which are drawn up on the basis of the original drawings in such a way that a working balance is
achieved between the specific requirements of each individual aspect of the work.
Contract Drawing Objectives include:

! The drawings should be easily comprehensible to those carrying out the work.
! The contents of the drawings should not be subject to subsequent alteration.
The following is a list of the main points to be considered when preparing contract drawings for the II
System and should be used as a reference during this stage of the work:
2.4.1 At the Contract Drawing Stage the Following Points are Critical!!
Check points
Arrangement of units 1. Have you left the access passages clear and allowed sufficient room for servicing?
2. Have you taken full account of the possibility of short circuits? (Both indoor and outdoor units)
3. Can the air filters be replaced easily?
4. Have you indicated the size and location of the ceiling inspection ports? (Make sure there no other installations in
the area above)
5. Have you taken into account the depth of the installation area? (In case of ceiling built-in type)
6. Have you specified the position of the indoor unit clearly? (Have you taken full account of relevant features of the
local ventilation, humidity and lighting?)
Refrigerant piping 1. Is the piping system correctly connected?
2. Are the rise and fall pipes correctly connected?
3. Are the lengths and height differences of the pipes within the
recommended limits?
Operational control 1. Are the interconnections between the piping and wiring of the
indoor and outdoor units clearly shown?
2. Are the numbers of the local setting switches clearly shown?
(Group No. and Unit No.)
3. Are the wiring connections between the remote controller and the
centralized and remote controls clearly shown?
Refer to the notes relating to the preparation of the control
wiring system diagrams (see next page)
4. Are the different types of wires clearly marked?
5. Are the any problems with the way the power supply cables and
control wiring have been separated or bound together?
6. Are the inter-floor connections of the control wiring correct?
7. Is the position of the remote controller clearly marked?
Miscellaneous 1. Have you checked the gradient of the drain piping? (Must be at
least 1/100)
2.4.2 Main Considerations in Preparation of Control Circuit Diagrams

In addition to the design of the appropriate this system configuration it is also essential that the control
system be made amply clear. If the system is designed and installed without a clear, comprehensive plan
then problems are inevitably going to occur during the test run.
Servicing too will become much more time consuming than necessary. However, if control circuit diagrams
are prepared along with the contract drawings in order to make the total system clearly visible then the
essential points relating to the electrical connections will be easily understood, the test run will go off
without a hitch and the whole system will be rendered fully effective.
Step 1: Compiling 1. Mark each outdoor unit with a code.

a System List 2. Add field settings and data for outdoor units, and outdoor unit No. if using sequential start.
3. Add the model number of each indoor unit connected to each refrigerant circuit.
4. Assign each indoor unit a code.
5. Fill in the location of each indoor unit.
6. Group indoor units controlled by one or two remote controllers. (group or individual control).
7. Assign central group Nos. if using centralized control.
8. Add field settings and optional equipment for indoor units.
9. Add unit No. if making separate field settings for each indoor unit under group control.
Note: With the VRV II R410A Heat Pump Series, unit No. is determined through automatic addressing, therefore
readout unit Nos. after activating the power.

For details on field settings and centralized control group No., refer to the installation manual and system
reference materials.
Step 2: The following sequence should be followed in order to prepare control circuit diagrams in accordance with
Preparation of the the system list which has already been completed:
Control Circuit Diagrams should be prepared for each individual outdoor unit. The outdoor unit model number should
Diagrams be inserted into the diagram. (RXYQ16M)
Insert name of refrigerant system. (PAC1, PAC2)
Insert name of indoor unit. (FXCQ32M→CQ32M)
Insert system name of indoor unit.
Insert installation position. (Do this when demarcation is possible)
Insert remote controller control wiring. (Group) Indicated by solid line. ........Solid line.
Insert centralized control wiring. ........Dotted line
Insert Group No. (G No. for each indoor unit with U No. 0)

Positioning of the a) The through holes for the drain piping should be positioned such that the pipes have a downward
Pipe Holes gradient. (The gradient must be at least 1/100. The thickness of the insulating materials must also be
taken into consideration.)
b) The diameter of the through holes for the refrigerant piping should include an allowance for the
thickness of the heat insulation materials. (It is a good idea to think of the liquid and gas pipes as pairs.)
c) Attention should be paid to the construction of the beam themselves since there are sometimes parts of
the beam which cannot be used to accommodate through holes.
Example: Through holes in a reinforced concrete beam
Positioning the a) An insert is a metal tool which is inserted into a floor or a beam before the concrete is set such that
Insert fittings such as ducts, pipes or suspension bolts for hanging units can be fitted into place later. The
positions of the inserts must be decided early.
Example: Steel insert
Important point:
1. The weight of the fitting to be suspended must be taken into account when choosing the insert.

1. Height: Take care to account for final ceiling facing surface level
2. Level: Level fitting is essential. (within ±1 degree of horizontal)
3. Direction: The unit must be fitted in line with the ultimately visible ceiling joints
Important points
1. The suspension bolts must be strong enough to support the weight of the indoor unit.
2. Optional features must be added to the indoor unit prior to installation.
3. The model name should be checked prior to installation.
4. Take care to align the main unit correctly. (Bearing in mind piping layout and direction of blow out)
5. Leave sufficient space for servicing to be carried out.
6. Make inspection holes for model which need them.

The 3 principles of refrigerant piping

Dry Clean Air tight
Make sure there is no moisture Make sure there is no dirt inside the Make sure the refrigerant does not
inside the pipes pipe leak out
Method for If brazing work is carried out without passing nitrogen gas through the pipes which are being brazed then
Replacing this allows the formation of oxidation bubbles on the inside surface of the pipes. These oxidation bubbles
Nitrogen are then carried along inside the pipes to cause damage to various members of the system such as valves
(Brazing) or compressors and the system ceases to function properly.
In order to avoid this problem nitrogen is passed through the pipes while the soldering work is being
carried out. This operation is known as nitrogen replacement. (Air is replaced by nitrogen)
This is standard work practice for all brazing work.
Important points:
1. The gas used must be nitrogen (oxygen, carbon dioxide and flon should not be used.)
2. A pressure regulator must be used.
Covering of Covering is an extremely important operation as it prevents water, dirt or dust from getting inside
Refrigerant Pipes the pipes. Moisture inside the pipes was a constant source of trouble in the past. The utmost care is
required to nip this problem in the bud.
The end of each pieces of pipe must be covered. “Pinching” is the most effective method but “taping” is
an simple alternative which may be used according to the work area and term of work.
Location Term of Work Covering Method

Outdoors 1 months or more Pinching
Less than 1 months Pinching or taping
Indoors Irrelevant Pinching or taping
1. Pinching method
The end of the copper pipe is squeezed together and the gap brazed.
2. Taping method
The end of the copper pipe is covered with PVC tape (vinyl tape).
<Taping method>
Particular care should be taken during the following operations:

! When passing copper pipe through a penetration hole (Dirt easily gets into the pipe).
! When copper pipe is located outside (Rainwater gets in)
(Special care is needed when the pipes are standing vertically outside)
Refrigerant Pipe
Flushing Flushing is a method of cleaning extraneous matter out of pipes using pressurized gas.
[3 major effects]
1. Removal of oxidation bubbles formed inside copper pipes when “nitrogen replacement is insufficient”
during soldering work
2. Removal of extraneous material and moisture from pipes when covering has been insufficient
3. Checks connections in pipes linking outdoor and indoor units (Both liquid and gas pipes)
[Example of procedure]
1. Set pressure regulator on nitrogen cylinder.
∗The gas used must be nitrogen.
(There is a danger of condensation if fleon or carbon dioxide are used and oxygen carries the risk of
explosions.)
2. Connect the charge hose from the pressure regulator to the service port on the liquid pipe side of the
outdoor unit.
3. Fit blanking plugs to all indoor units (B) other than unit A.
4. Open the main valve on the nitrogen cylinder and set the pressure regulator to 0.5MPa.
5. Check that the nitrogen is passing through the unit A liquid pipe.
6. Flushing.
! Block the end of the pipe with the insulation of your hand.
↓
! When the gas pressure becomes too great to contain remove insulation quickly. (First flush)
↓
! Block the end of the pipe with insulation again.
↓
(Carry out second flushing)
(The nature and amount of the extraneous material inside the pipe can be checked during flushing by
placing a rag lightly over the end of the pipe. In the unlikely case that even a small quantity of moisture is
found then the inside of the pipe should be dried out thoroughly.)
Action:
1. Flush the inside of the pipe with nitrogen gas. (Until such time as the moisture disappears.)
2. Carry out a thorough vacuum drying operation. (See page 31)
Close the main valve on the nitrogen cylinder.
Repeat the above operation for unit B.
When the liquid pipe operations have been completed then do the same with the gas pipes.
Choice of a) Refrigerant piping

Materials for ! The piping used must meet the requirements of the JIS standard or equivalent. (Size, material,
Refrigerant thickness, etc.)
Piping Specification: Oxidized phosphorous seamless copper pipe
! Long pipe lengths or coiled pipe (copper pipe with heat insulation coating) should be used to avoid the
necessity for frequent brazing.
(* Make sure the thickness and material shall be selected in accordance with following table.)

*The thickness and material shall be selected in accordance with local code.
b) Brazed joints and special branches

1. General use (L bend joint, socket joint, T joint, etc.)
! Joints must meet the requirements of the relevant JIS standard. (Size, materials, thickness, etc.)
2. Special branches
! The Daikin outdoor unit multi connection kit, REFNET joint, REFNET header or Reducing socket should
be used.
Example: R410A RXYQ-M Series
Refer detail of DAIKIN REFNET joint and REFNET header on page 126.
c) Brazing
The Multi-System requires only copper/copper jointing and the jointing method is explained below.
! The use of “hard solder” is essential.
The R410A Heat Pump RXYQ-M Series uses a wide range of piping sizes. You should therefore be careful
when selecting the nozzle tip. If a small nozzle tip is used for brazing piping of large diameters such as
φ38.1 and φ44.5, brazing flow becomes poor.

Note: The values in the table above are for type B torch (French).
Brazing a) Brazing work should be carried out such that the final result is directed either downwards or sideways.
An upward direction should be avoided wherever possible. (to prevent leakage)
b) Liquid and gas pipe branches should always be dealt with in the specified way with attention being paid
to the direction of the fitting and its angle. (to prevent oil return or drift) For example see page 148.
c) It is standard working practice to use the nitrogen replacement method when brazing.
Important points
1. Every effort must be made to avoid fire. (Clean area where brazing is to be performed and make sure
that fire fighting equipment and water are ready to hand.)
2. Be careful of burns.
3. Make sure that the gap between the pipe and the joint is correct. (To prevent leaks)
4. Is the pipe adequately supported?
! As a rule the gaps between supports for horizontal piping (copper pipe) are as follows:
Copper pipe support spacing (From HASS 107-1977)

Nominal diameter 20 or less 25~40 50
Maximum gap (m) 1.0 1.5 2.0
! The copper pipe should not be secured directly by metal brackets.
Flare Connection (a) Stiffened pipe must always be annealed at least once prior to the flaring work.
(b) A pipe cutter must be used to cut the pipe. (A large pipe cutter must be used where the pipe has a large
diameter. When cutting a pipe which is too big for the pipe cutter a metal saw may be used but care
must be taken to ensure that the debris from sawing does not get into the pipe.)
(c) Set the flaring tool to make sure the flare size remains within the prescribed limits.

New Rank Compatible Flare Tool

Compared to previous refrigerants, the components of a HFC refrigerant is small. R410A also has a higher
pressure than other refrigerants. Therefore, in order to strengthen the intensity of the form and size of the
flare section used for R410A (class 2) apparatus, unlike the specification of the conventional refrigerants, it
was set up with different standards.
When carrying out flare processing, use a new rank compatible flare tool or a conventional flare tool.
Flare Gauge (Adapter Corresponding to the New Rank)
When using the later, use a flare gauge to take out the pipe from the gauge bar, adjust it, and then carry out
the flare processing.

(d) Coat the inner and outer surface of the flare with refrigerator oil (Ester or ether oil). (this ensures that the
flare nut passes smoothly, preventing the pipe from twisting.)
Do not use SUNISO-4GS oil.
Important points
1. Burrs should be carefully removed.
2. 2 spanners should be used to grip the flare nuts.
3. The flare nut must be inserted before starting the flaring operation.
4. The appropriate amount of torque should be used to tighten the flare nut.

Flaring Procedure
Not You must use a torque wrench but if you are obliged to install the unit without a torque wrench, you may
recommendable follow the installation method mentioned below.
but in case of
emergency After the work is finished, make sure to check that is no gas leak.
When you keep on tightening the flare nut with a spanner, there is a point where the tightening torque
suddenly increases. From that position, further tighten the flare nut the angle shown below:
Pipe size Further tightening angle Recommended arm length of tool
6.4 (1/4”) 60 to 90 degrees Approx. 150mm
Flange a) The flange sheet surface should be clean and undamaged. (Clean any dirt away with a cloth and check
Connection that there has been no damage.)
b) Coat the flange sheet surface with refrigeration oil (Ester or ether oil) and then insert the packing. (Do
not use SUNISO oil.)
c) Tighten the bolts in opposite corners first to ensure that the connection is true.
[Example]
Order:A→C→B→D The bolts should be tightened little by
little in the above order such that the
same degree of torque is applied
evenly to each corner.
Important points
1. Only clean refrigeration/oil should be used to coat the flange. (i.e. free from dirt or water)
2. The correct amount of torque should be applied when tightening the flange bolts.

Materials The thermal insulation materials which are used must be well able to withstand the heat from the pipes.
Example:
Heat pump type: Heat resistant polyethylene foam (heat resistance of at least 120°C)
Cooling only: Polyethylene foam (heat resistance of 100°C or more)
Essential Points The insulation of jointed areas such as the soldered, flared or flanged sections should only be carried out
of Thermal after the successful completion of the air tight test.
Insulation Attention should be paid to the unit model and its operating conditions since there are occasions when the
gas and liquid pipes also need to be thermally insulated.
! Important points
1. The thickness of the thermal insulation material must be determined in the light of the pipe sizes.
Pipe size Thickness of insulation material
6.4mm~25.4mm 10mm or more
28.6mm~38.1mm 15mm or more
2. It will be necessary to increase the values in the above table for top floors or where conditions are hot
and humid.
3. Where a customer supplies his own specifications then these must be adhered to.
4. Where it is anticipated that the air conditioning unit will be operated at external air temperatures of 10°C
or less then thermal insulation will also be required for the liquid pipes.

approx. 24 hours 
∗Increasing the system pressure to 3.80MPa does not guarantee the identification of minor leaks if
pressure is maintained for only a short time. It is therefore recommended that the system remain
pressurized in accordance with Step 3 above for at least 24 hours.
Note: The pressure must on no account be increased beyond 3.80MPa.
b) Check for pressure drop

If there is no drop in pressure then the test is deemed a success.
If the pressure drops then the leak must be located. See following page.
However, if there is a change in the ambient temperature between the pressurizing stage and the time
when you check for a drop in pressure then you will have to adjust your calculations accordingly since a
change of 1°C can account for a pressure change of approximately 0.01MPa.
Compensating adjustment value:
(temperature at time of pressurizing – temperature at time of checking) × 0.01
Example:
Time of pressurizing: 3.80MPa 25°C
24 hours later: 3.75MPa 20°C
The pressure drop in such a case is deemed to be zero (successful test).
Checking for [Check 1] (Where pressure falls while carrying out Steps 1 to 3 described on previous page)
Leaks ! Check by ear......Listen for the sound of a major leak.
! Check by hand......Check for leak by feeling around jointed sections with hand.
! Soap and water check (∗Snoop)......Bubbles will reveal the presence of a leak.
[Check 2] (When searching for a minor leak or when there has been a fall in pressure while the system has
been fully pressurized but the source of the leak cannot be traced.)
1. Release the nitrogen until the pressure reaches 0.3MPa.
2. Increase pressure to 1.5MPa using gaseous flon gas (R410A). (Nitrogen and flon gas mixed)
3. Search for the source of the leak using a leak detector.
4. If the source of the leak still cannot be traced then repressurize with nitrogen up to 3.80MPa and check
again. (The pressure must not be increased to more than 3.80MPa.)
Setup of Air-light Test

As for the air-tight test, the setup of devices shown in the following figure is recommended with
considerations given to “vacuum drying and refrigerant additional charging”, which are operation
steps following the air-tightness test.
In order to conduct the air-tight test, with stop valves of 8.Gas side, 10.liquid side and 15.Oil
equalization piping and those of the refrigerant and vacuum pump all closed, then open the
nitrogen gas stop valve, 7.Valve A, and 16.Valve B while adjusting the nitrogen gas pressure
regulating valve, thus increasing the pressure.

3.2.6 Vacuum Drying

What is vacuum Vacuum drying is:
drying? “The use of a vacuum pump to vaporize (gasify) the moisture (liquid) inside the pipes and expel it leaving
the pipes completely dry inside.”
At 1 atm (760 mmHg) the boiling point (evaporating temperature) of water is 100°C but if a vacuum is
created inside the pipes using a vacuum pump then the boiling point is rapidly reduced as the degree of the
vacuum is increased. If the boiling point is reduced to a level below that of the ambient temperature then
the moisture in the pipes will evaporate.

Above figures (mmHg) are gauge pressure readings.
The evacuation of air conditioner piping provides the following effects.

1. Vacuum drying
2. Removes air and nitrogen (used in air-tightness test) from the inside of pipes.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the both purposes have been achieved in the vacuum drying
operation.
Key points
Lower the degree of vacuum to below –755mmHg
(V1216)
Choosing a General
Vacuum Pump Refrigerant piping content volume of the VRVII R410A Series is larger than the VRV Inverter Series, and
consequently takes more time for vacuum drying. If you have time to spare, you may use the same vacuum
pump, but if you want to save time, you will have to use a pump with higher exhaust velocity (exhaust
volume).
The Necessity for Counter Flow Prevention

After the vacuum process of the refrigerant cycle, the inside of the hose will be vacuumed after stopping the
vacuum pump, and the vacuum pump oil may flow back. Moreover, if the vacuum pump stops during the
operation by some reason, the same thing happens.
In such cases, different oil mixes in the HFC system refrigerant apparatus cycle, and becomes the cause of
a refrigerant circuit trouble. Therefore, in order to prevent the counter flow from the vacuum pump, a check
valve is needed.

1. Vacuum pump performance

The 2 most import things for determining vacuum pump performance are as follows:
(1) Exhaust velocity
(2) Degree of vacuum
(1) Exhaust velocity

Exhaust volume is usually expressed as l/min or m³/h. The larger the number, the faster vacuum id
achieved.
Generally speaking, the faster the exhaust velocity, the larger and heavier the vacuum pump itself is.
Commercially available vacuum pumps (exhaust velocity of 20 - 30 l/min) usually take an extremely
long time to achieve vacuum. (We recommend a vacuum pump of approx. 60 - 100 l/min.)
(2) Degree of vacuum

Ultimate vacuum varies largely according to use of the vacuum pump. Vacuum pumps used for vacuum
forming cannot be used for vacuum drying. (A vacuum pump with a high degree of vacuum is required.)
When selecting a vacuum, you should select one which is capable of achieving 0.2 Torr of ultimate
vacuum.
Degree of vacuum is expressed in Torr, micron, nnHg, and Pascal (Pa). The units correlate as follows:
Unit Standard atmospheric pressure Perfect vacuum

Gauge Pressure kg/cm2 0 –1.033
Absolute Pressure kg/cm2 abs 1.033 0
Torr Torr 760 0
Micron Micron 760000 0
∗mmHg mmHg 0 760
Pa hPa 1013.33 0
Degree of vacuum must be within the range expressed by
0 Torr 5 Torr 760 Torr

0 Pa 667 Pa 1013.33 hPa
760 mmHg 755 mmHg 0 mmHg
Perfect vacuum Vacuum target value Standard atmospheric pressure
(V0992)
2. Vacuum pump maintenance

Because of their nature, most vacuum pumps contain large amounts of oil which lubricates bearings, etc.,
and functions to enhance airtightness of pistons. When using a vacuum pump to discharge air from
refrigerant piping, moisture in the air tends to get mixed in with the oil. You must therefore change oil
periodically and make sure the proper oil level is maintained. (Perform periodic inspections in accordance
with the operating instructions.)
3. Degree of vacuum measurement

An extremely accurate vacuum gauge is required to test degree of vacuum. You cannot accurately
measure degree of vacuum with the compound gauge on the gauge manifold. A Pirani vacuum gauge is
required to measure degree of vacuum accurately. Because Pirani gauges are very sensitive and require
extreme care when using, they are not very suitable for use in the field. You should therefore use the Pirani
gauge to calibrate the attached vacuum gauge on the gauge manifold and the degree of vacuum of the
vacuum pump.
4. Calibration method
1. Connect a Pirani vacuum gauge and the gauge manifold vacuum gauge (0 - 760 mmHg) to the vacuum
pump at the same time, and run the pump for about 3 minutes.
2. Make sure the reading of the Pirani vacuum gauge is 5 Torr (667 Pa) or less. The reading of
conventional vacuum pumps lowers to about 0.2 Torr.
If the reading is not 5 Torr or less, check the vacuum pump oil. (Oil is low in many cases.)
3. Check the attached gauge on the gauge manifold. Adjust the gauge if the reading is not exactly correct.
4. Adjust the gauge manifold valve so that the Pirani vacuum gauge reads 5 Torr.
5. Mark the position indicated by the gauge manifold gauge with an oil based ink pen.
6. Use the mark of the gauge manifold as a target when vacuuming in the field.

Vacuum Drying There are two vacuum drying methods and the appropriate one should always be chosen to conform with
Procedure individual local conditions.
[Normal vacuum drying]........The standard method
[Operational steps]
1. Vacuum drying (1st time): Connect a manifold gauge to the service port of the liquid or gas pipe and
operate the vacuum pump for at least 2 hours.
(The degree of vacuum produced should be in excess of 5 mmHg)
If after 2 hours the vacuum produced has not exceeded 5 mmHg then either there is moisture in the
pipe or there is a leak. Operate the vacuum pump for a further hour.
If, even after 3 hours, the vacuum has not reached 5 mmHg then check the system for a leak.
2. Carry out maintained vacuum test.
Produce a vacuum in excess of –755 mmHg and do not release it for an hour or more. Check the
vacuum gauge to make sure that it has not risen. (If the gauge does rise then there is still moisture in
the pipe or there is a leak somewhere.)
3. Additional charge of refrigerant.
Connect the charging cylinder to the liquid pipe service port and charge with the required amount of
refrigerant.
4. Open stop valve to the full.
Open the stop valves on the liquid and the gas pipes to the full.
Note: Vacuums should be produced in both the liquid and the gas pipes.
(Because there are a large number of functional components in the indoor unit which cut off the vacuum
mid–way through)
Special vacuum drying
This vacuum drying method is selected when there is a suspicion that there may be moisture in the pipes.
For example:
! When moisture was discovered during the refrigerant pipe flushing operation
! When there is a risk of condensation forming inside the pipes during periods of heavy rainfall
! When there is a risk of condensation forming inside the pipes due to a long term of works
! When there is a risk that rainwater may have entered the pipes during installation
The special vacuum drying method is the same as the standard method except that nitrogen is introduced
into the pipes to break the vacuum on one or more occasions during the course of the operation.
[Operational steps]
1. Vacuum drying (1st time): 2 hours
2. Vacuum breaking (1st time): Use nitrogen to raise pressure to +0.05MPa.
(Since the nitrogen gas used to break the vacuum is dry nitrogen this process serves only to enhance
the overall drying effect of the vacuum drying operation itself.
However, since the effectiveness of this process is severely impaired by a high moisture level inside the
pipes, the utmost care is required during installation to see that water does not enter or form inside the
refrigerant pipes.)
3. Vacuum drying (2nd time): Operate the vacuum pump for at least 1 hour.
(Observations: Degree of vacuum has reached 5 mmHg. If the degree of vacuum has not reached 5

Important points
1. The results of all calculations must be recorded. (Make a list.)
2. The refrigerant will need to be additionally charged whenever the distance between the outdoor unit and
the most distant indoor unit is more than 10m.
3. The additional charging operation should be carried out by input of liquid from Service port at liquid stop
valve following completion of the vacuum drying operation.
4. When the additional charging operation cannot be satisfactorily completed use the action of the
compressor to complete the additional charging during the test run.
Refrigerant HFC401A are Quasi-azeotropic* refrigerants. Therefore, these refrigerants must be charged in the liquid
Charging state. When charging the refrigerant into equipment from the refrigerant cylinder, turn the refrigerant
Instructions cylinder upside down.
Important: Make sure that the refrigerant (liquid) is taken out from the bottom part of the refrigerant cylinder.
Do not take out the refrigerant (gas) at the upper part of the refrigerant cylinder for charging.
Caution Since some refrigerant cylinders differ in the internal mechanism, it is necessary to examine the cylinder
carefully. (Some cylinders have a siphon tube to eliminate the need for turning it upside down.)
Siphon tube
<*Non-azeotropic refrigerants or Quasi-azeotropic refrigerants>

When a refrigerant is a mixture of two or more types with different evaporation temperature, it is called a
non-azeotropic refrigerant. If all refrigerant components evaporate at the same temperature, the mixture is
called an azeotropic refrigerant.
If a non-azeotropic refrigerant is charged into equipment in the gaseous state, the refrigerant components
that evaporate sooner than others enter the equipment, and the refrigerant that evaporate after others
remain in the refrigerant cylinder.
*Quasi-azeotropic mixture refrigerant: mixture of two or more refrigerants having similar boiling points.
Caution items
The following devices designed for R-22 cannot be used to charge the new refrigerants. Be sure to use the
devices specifically designed for the new refrigerants.
1. Charging cylinder...(Pressure resisting specification is different.)
2. Gauge manifold (including hose)...(same as above)

Drain Pipe a) The drain pipe must be fitted at a gradient of at least 1/100.
Gradient and The drain pipe should be as short as possible and free from airlocks.
Support
b) Suspension bolts should be used to support long stretches of drain pipe in order to ensure that a
gradient of 1/100 is maintained. (PVC pipes should not be bent)
Spacing of supports for horizontal piping

Class Nominal diameter Spacing
Rigid PVC pipe 25~40mm 1~1.5m
c) The length of pipe laid horizontally should be kept to a minimum.
Drain Trap Fit any indoor unit whose drain pipe connection is subjected to negative pressure, with a drain trap.
(FXYMP40~125 only)
a) Rig the drain trap as shown in the drawing bellow.
b) Provide one trap per unit. A single trap for converging units will prove ineffective.
c) Rig the trap to allow for future cleaning.
Grouped Drain 1. It is standard work practice to make connections to the main pipe from above. The pipe down from the
Piping combination should be as large as possible.
2. The pipework should be kept as short as possible and the number of indoor units per group kept to a
minimum.
Use of an If a drain pan made of polystyrene foam is used then an auxiliary drain hose (flexible) is also essential. A
Auxiliary Drain flexible drain hose permits the drain socket and drain pipe to be connected without difficulty and prevents
Hose (Flexible) any undue strain being placed on the drain pan.
Important points
1. The drain pipe should be at least equal in size to that of the indoor unit.
2. The drain pipe is thermally insulated to prevent the formation of condensation inside the pipe.
3. The drain up mechanism should be fitted before the indoor unit is installed and when the electricity has
been connected some water should be added to the drain pan and the drain pump checked to see that
it is functioning correctly.
4. All connections should be secure. (Special care is needed with PVC pipe)
The use of a colored adhesive with PVC pipes will help you to remember to connect them up.)
Piping Diameter ! Select piping diameter from the below table in accordance with the amount of condensation drained by
for Grouped all units with a common drain pipe.
Drain Pipes ! Consider 2 l/hr of drainage for every 1 HP. For example, drainage from 3 units running at 2 HP and 2
units running at 3 HP is calculated as follows.

3.2.10 Electrical Work

Control Wiring 1. Compatible types of wire
Wiring Specifications
Wiring Type Shield Wire (2 wire) (See NOTE 1, 2)
Size 0.75~1.25 mm²
Notes: 1. Sheathed wire may be used for transmission wirings, but they do not comply with EMI (Electromagnetic
lnterference) (EN55014). When using sheathed wire. EMI must conform to Japanese standards
stipulated in the Electric Appliance Regulatory Act. (If using a sheathed wire, the grounding shown in
the figure on the left is unnecessary.)
2. For FXYAP indoor unit, use sheathed wire.
2. Problems arising from the use of unsuitable cable
a) When cable less than 0.75 mm² is used

Where the control wiring is particularly long the transmission signals may, for example, become
unstable and the terminal relay cease to function. (Reduced voltage) The control system may become
unduly subject to noise interference.
b) When cable more than 1.25 mm² is used
When wiring indoor units together, the terminal block will not be able to accommodate 2 cables
simultaneously if the cables are larger than 1.25 mm².
c) For multi-core cable

The greater play between wires, the more the transmitted wave is distorted and transmission
destabilized.
d) In the case of a remote controller with a three way selector for cooling, heating and ventilation, twin core
cable should be used when the ventilation mode is not required and three core cable should be used
when three way selection is required.
e) Since there is a considerable risk of mixing high (220 to 240V) and low voltage in the case of, for
example, a PCB for remote control, multiple core cable must not be used.
(Internal wiring regulations and dielectric strengths of cables are relevant here.)
f) Other important points

1. The refrigerant circuit and the indoor/outdoor connecting cables must correspond exactly.
2. A suitable gap must be left between the control cables and the power supply cables where these are
laid alongside each other. (See “Separation of control and power supply cables” on page 54)
Power Supply 1. Choosing a circuit breaker

(Cabling of Main The power supply work must conform to local regulations. In Japan, the relevant regulations are the MITI
Power Supply) ordinance determining technical standards for electrical equipment, and the Internal Wining Provisions.
a) The indoor unit circuit breakers

! In accordance with the provisions for internal wiring (JEAC8001-1986), power may be supplied by
means of crossover lines between the indoor units in a single system branch circuit.
Branch circuit facility (Internal wiring provisions

305-2)
The motors must be set up with a dedicated branch
circuit for each unit. However, where they
correspond to any of the following situations, this
limitation does not apply.
When used in a 15A branch circuit of a 20A
circuit breaker branch circuit
Note: It is recommended that the total rated
capacity of the motors set up in a 15A branch circuit
or a 20A circuit breaker branch circuit should be no
more than 2.2kW.
When using high static pressure indoor units the fan motors must have a large capacity. Single phase
220~240V branch circuits are therefore required for each indoor unit.
Example: Up to 10 × 2.5HP indoor units or 5 × 5HP indoor units can be wired together.
b) The outdoor unit circuit breaker

! A separate circuit breaker must be fitted for each unit.
! The motors incorporated into air conditioning system compressors are treated as special motors under
the internal wiring provisions. The values which apply to normal motors are thus somewhat variance
with those which apply to such compressor motors. You are recommended to adhere strictly to the
procedures laid down in the technical materials included in, for example, the system design manuals.
Calculation of load (Refer to local regulation.)
With respect to the calculation of load for motors with special applications such as elevator, air conditioner
and refrigerator motors, not only must the rated current be shown on the name plate of the said motor or
piece of apparatus but it must also included all special characteristics or applications.
Note: The rated current for package air conditioners which use special purpose built-in compressor motors in
their compressors in 1.2 times the operating current shown on the name plate.
2. Cable size
The thickness of the cables in the circuits (branch circuits) providing the main power supply to each item of
apparatus must satisfy the following conditions:
1. To have a current tolerance of 40% or more of the rated current of the overcurrent circuit breaker (wiring
circuit breaker, etc.).
2. To have a current tolerance of 125% or more of the rated current in cases where the rated current of the
apparatus is 50A or less.
3. To have a current tolerance of 110% or more of the rated current in cases where the rated current of the
apparatus is more than 50A.
4. To satisfy voltage drop standards.
3. Separation of control and power supply cables

! If control and power cables are run alongside each other then there is a strong likelihood of
operational faults developing due to interference in the signal wiring caused by electrostatic and
electromagnetic coupling.
The table below indicates our recommendations as to the appropriate spacing of control and power
cables where these are to be run side by side.
Current capacity of power cable Spacing (d)

10A or less 300mm
50A 500mm
100V or more
100A 1000mm
100A or more 1500mm
Notes: 1. The figures are based on an assumed length of parallel cabling up to 100m. For lengths in excess of
100m the figures will have to be recalculated in direct proportion to the additional length of cable
involved.
2. If the power supply waveform continues to exhibit some distortion the recommended spacing in the
table should be increased.
If the cables are laid inside conduits then the following points must also be taken into account when
grouping various cables together for introduction into the conduits.
1. Power cables (including power supply to the air conditioner) and signal cables must not be laid inside
the same conduit. (Power cables and signal cables must each have their own individual conduits.)
2. In the same way, when grouping the cables, power and signal cables should not be bunched together.
! Important points
1. Earthing
! Have the indoor and outdoor units both been earthed?

∗ If the apparatus is not properly earthed then there is always a risk of electric shocks. The earthing of the
apparatus must be carried out by a qualified person.
3.2.11 Duct Work (Indoor)

! Operational steps
Install indoor unit Connect ducts Fit inlets and outlets

(V1040)
Taking Account a) Canvas joints must be used between the main unit and the air suction and discharge ducts. These
of Noise and fittings are designed to inhibit secondary noise resulting from the transmission of vibrations and
Vibration operating noise from the main unit to the ducts or to the rest of the building.
b) The speed of the airflow should be taken into account when choosing air suction and distribution grills in
order to keep wind noise to minimum.
! Important points
1. The air discharge duct must be thermally insulated.
2. The canvas duct on the inlet side must be set in a metal framework.
3. The air suction and distribution grills should be positioned to take into account the possibility of short
circuits.
4. Static pressure should be checked to ensure that the airflow is within the specified range.
5. The air filter must be easily detachable.
3.2.12 Selection of Location

This unit, both indoor and outdoor, is suitable for installation in a commercial and light industrial
environment. If installed as a household appliance it could cause electromagnetic interference.
The VRV OUTDOOR units should be installed in a location that meets the following requirements:
1. The foundation is strong enough to support the weight of the unit and the floor is flat to prevent vibration
and noise generation.
2. The space around the unit is adequate for servicing and the minimum space for air inlet and air outlet is
available.
(refer to figure below and choose one of both possibilities)

3. There is no danger of fire due to leakage of inflammable gas.

4. Ensure that water cannot cause any damage to the location in case it drips out the unit (e.g. in case of a
blocked drain pipe).
5. The piping length between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit may not exceed the allowable piping
length. (see “Example of connection”)
6. Select the location of the unit in such a way that neither the discharged air nor the sound generated by
the unit disturb anyone.
7. Make sure that the air inlet and outlet of the unit are not positioned towards the main wind direction.
Frontal wind will disturb the operation of the unit. If necessary, use a windscreen to block the wind.
Caution 1. An inverter air conditioner may cause electronic noise generated from AM broadcasting. Examine
where to install the main air conditioner and electric wires, keeping proper distances away from stereo
equipment, personal computers, etc.

2. In heavy snowfall areas, select an installation site where snow will not affect operation of the unit.
3. The refrigerant R410A itself is nontoxic, nonflammable and is safe. If the refrigerant should leak
however, its concentration may exceed the allowable limit depending on room size. Due to this it could
be necessary to take measures against leakage. Refer to the chapter “Caution for refrigerant leaks”.
4. Do not install in the following locations.
•Locations such as kitchens which contain a lot of mineral oil or steam in the atmosphere or where oil
may splatter on the unit.
Resin parts may deteriorate, causing the unit to fall or leak.
•Locations where sulfurous acids and other corrosive gases may be present in the atmosphere.
Copper piping and soldered joints may corrode, causing refrigerant to leak.
•Locations where equipment that produces electromagnetic waves is found.
The electromagnetic waves may cause the control system to malfunction, preventing normal operation.
•Locations where flammable gases may leak, where thinner, gasoline, and other volatile substances
are handled, or where carbon dust and other incendiary substances are found in the atmosphere.
Leaked gas may accumulate around the unit, causing an explosion.
Service Space It is extremely important that enough space is left when installing the equipment to allow routine servicing
and maintenance to be carried out without undue hindrance. It is particularly important to bear in mind the
work which will be required if the compressor needs to be replaced. (The layout of the pipework can
sometimes cause considerable difficulties if the compressor needs to be changed.)
3.2.13 Inspecting and Handling the Unit

At delivery, the package should be checked and any damage should be reported immediately to the carrier
claims agent.
When handling the unit, take into account the following:
1. Fragile, handle the unit with care.
Keep the unit upright in order to avoid compressor damage.
2. Choose the path along which the unit is to be brought in ahead of time.
3. If a forklift it to be used, pass the forklift arms through the large openings on the bottom of the unit.
4. Lift the unit preferably with a crane and 2 belts of at least 8m long.
5. When lifting the unit with a crane, always use protectors to prevent belt damage and pay attention to the
position of the unit’s centre of gravity.
6. After installation, remove the transport clasps attached to the large openings.
7. Bring the unit as close to its final installation position in its original package to prevent damage during

Setting of Low Noise Operation
By connecting the external contact input to the low noise input of the outdoor unit external
control adapter (optional), you can lower operating noise by 2-3 dB.
A. When the low noise operation is carried out by external instructions (with the use
of the outdoor unit external control adapter)
1. Set “External low noise / Demand YES/NO setting” to “External low noise / Demand YES”.
(Set by Setting Mode 2)
2. Set “External low noise level setting” on the outdoor unit PC board, as the need arises.
(Lower noise operation can be carried out by “Mode 2” than by “Mode 1”, and by “Mode 3”
than by “Mode 2”.)
3. Set “Capacity precedence setting” on the outdoor unit PC board, as the need arises.
(If set to “ON”, when air conditioning load gets higher, the low noise instructions are
neglected to switch to normal operation.) (Set by Setting Mode 2)
B. When the low noise operation is carried out automatically at night (The outdoor unit
external control adapter is not required)
1. Set “Night-time low noise setting” on the outdoor unit PC board. (Set by Setting Mode 2)
(Lower noise operation can be carried out by “Mode 2” than by “Mode 1”, and by “Mode 3”
than by “Mode 2”.)
2. Set “Night-time low noise start setting” on the outdoor unit PC board, as the need arises.
(Since the time is presumed in accordance with the outdoor temperature, the starting time is
a target only.)
3. Set “Night-time low noise end setting” on the outdoor unit PC board, as the need arises.
(Since the time is presumed in accordance with the outdoor temperature, the ending time is
a target only.)
4. Set “Capacity precedence setting” on the outdoor unit PC board, as the need arises.
(If set to “ON”, when air conditioning load gets higher, the status is switched to normal
operation even at night.)

Caution for Refrigerant Leaks Si39-303
5. Caution for Refrigerant Leaks

5.1 Caution for Refrigerant Leaks
5.1.1 Introduction
Points to note in connection with refrigerant leaks
The installer and system specialist shall secure safety against leakage according to local
regulations or standards. The following standards may be applicable if local regulations are not
available.
5.1.2 Maximum Concentration Level

The maximum charge of refrigerant and the calculation of the maximum concentration of
refrigerant is directly related to the humanly occupied space in to which it could leak. The unit of
measurement of the concentration is kg/m3 (the weight in kg of the refrigerant gas in 1m3
volume of the occupied space). Compliance to the local applicable regulations and standards of
the maximum allowable concentration level is required. In Australia the maximum allowed
concentration level of refrigerant to a humanly space is limited to 0.35kg/m3 for R407C and
0.44kg/m3 for R410A.
O tdoor nit
Direction of refrigerant flow
Room where
refrigerant leak has
Indoor nit occurred (Outflow
of all the refrigerant
in system).
Pay special attention to the place, such as a basement, etc, where refrigerant can stay, since
refrigerant is heavier than air.
5.1.3 Procedure for Checking Dangerous Concentration

Check the Dangerous concentration in accordance with steps (1)-(4) below and take whatever
action is necessary.
Step1: Calculate the amount of refrigerant (kg) charged to each system separately.
(Amount of refrigerant (Additional charging Total amount of
in a single indoor + amount) = refrigerant (kg) in
unit system) the system
Amount of refrigerant with which

the system is charged before
leaving the factory
Amount of refrigerant added

locally in accordance with the
length or diameter of the
refrigerant piping
Notes: Where a single refrigerant facility is divided onto 2 entirely independent refrigerant systems then
use the amounts of refrigerant with which each separate system of charged.

Si39-303 Caution for Refrigerant Leaks
Step 2: Calculate the smallest room volume (m3).

In a case like the following calculate the volume of (a), (b) as a single room or as the smallest
room.
(a) Where there are no smaller room divisions
O tdoor nit
Indoor nit
(b) Where there is a room division but there is an opening between the rooms sufficiently large
to permit a free flow of air back and forth.
O tdoor nit
Indoor nit
Opening between rooms
Partition
(Where there is an opening without a door or where there are openings above and below the
door which are each equivalent in size to 0.15% or more of the floor area.)
(c) Where there is a gas leak detection alarm device linked to a mechanical ventilator in the
smallest room then the next smallest room will become the measurement target.
O tdoor nit
Smallest Second Indoor nit

room smallest
room
Step 3: Calculate the refrigerant density using the results of the calculations in Step (1) and (2)
above.
Total volume of refrigerant
in the refrigerant system
<= Dangerous concentration (kg/m3)
Size (m3) of the smallest room in
which there is an indoor unit
installed
in the case of: R407C = 0.35kg/m3, R410A = 0.44kg/m3
If the result of the above calculation exceeds the dangerous concentration level then make
similar calculations for the second then third smallest room and so on until the result falls short
of the concentration level.

Step 4: Dealing with situations where the result exceeds the dangerous concentration level.
Where the installation of a facility results in a concentration in excess of the dangerous
concentration level then it may be necessary to revise the system design to dome extent or else
take one of the following courses of action.
Action 1: Making openings which will allow the air to flow freely into the room.
Make openings above and below the door which are each equivalent in size to 0.15%
or more of the floor area or make a doorless opening.
Action 2: Fit a mechanical ventilator linked to a gas leak detection alarm device.
Action 2: Gas Indoor nit Action 1: Make

leak detection openings

mechanical to permit free flow

Notes: This precaution shows the requirement of EN.

The precaution should be followed in accordance of local code.

7.1 Operating Noise of Indoor Units
7.1.1 Difference between Catalogue Data and Actual Noise
Operating noise differs depending on the place of measurement (room) because of the various degrees
with which the room reverberates the sound. To determine the amount of reverberation under uniform
conditions, the unit has been measured in a dead room with results having been compiled in the below
table. The actual sound produced in unit operation can be determined from Table 1.

Si39-303 Appendix
7.1.2 Faint Noises and Correcting Operating Noise with Respect to Faint
Noises
Faint noises are defined as peripheral sounds existing while the unit is not running, which are picked up
when measuring operating noise. If these faint noises are 10 dB or more than the noise produced by the
unit, the measured value can be taken as the operating noise of the unit. But, the difference must be
corrected if less than 10 dB, because of the effect these noises have on the actual measured value. Also,
when the sound meter remains unchanged even while the unit is stopped, we can determine the
operational noise to be at least 10 dB less than the faint noises, but we cannot pinpoint the operating noise
exactly.
For example, if the faint noises are some 65 dB and the noise produced by the unit in operation is 70 dB,
the indicated difference comes to 5 dB. Using Table 3, we recommend you correct the operating noise by
about 2 dB to 68 dB.

is produced and when not
Corrective Value –6.9 –4.4 –3.0 –2.3 –1.7 –1.25 –0.95 –0.75 –0.60 –0.45
7.1.3 Calculating Operating Noise

When two or more units are running at the same time, the amount of operating noise they produce rises.
The total amount of noise produced can be obtained ahead of time with Chart 4.
Sample calculation 1
L1 and L2 are given as compounded sounds of 50 and 49 dB respectively. Since L1 – L2 = 50 – 49 = 1, the
corrective value is 2.5, therefore 50 + 2.5 = 52.5 dB.
Sample calculation 2
When sounds of 40 dB, 38 dB, 37 dB and 40 dB are placed in order of magnitude, we obtain the following:
40 dB, 40 dB, 38 dB, 37 dB
To start, the difference between 40 dB and 40 dB is 0, therefore we take a corrective value of 3dB and
obtain 40 + 3 = 43 dB. The compounded sound of 43 dB and 38 dB has a 5.0 dB difference, thus a
corrective value of 1.2 dB, which gives us 44.2 dB from 43 + 1.2. In the same manner, the corrective value
for 44.2 dB and 37 dB is approximately 0.7 dB, or in other words, 44.2 + 0.7 = 44.9 dB.

7.12 Bad Examples and Good Examples in Installation

7.12.1 Example 1: Signal interference due to use of multiple core cable (all
model)
Situation Although for the purposes of group control there are only 2 units per group there are transmission
malfunctions between the indoor units and the remote controller and the remote controller’s address
display is showing non-existent addresses such as 13 or 15.
Source of Multiple core cable has been used for at least part of the interconnecting wiring between the remote
Problem and controller and the indoor units.
Remedial Action This has resulted in signal interference leading to a transmission malfunction.
The multiple core cable was replaced by twin core cable and the fault disappeared.
Main Points ! Although twin core cable had been run from each unit, multiple core cable was used on the way.
! In schools, etc., because remote controllers are often installed in a single first floor control room, it is
easier to use a multi-core cable.
! Signal interference can result in non-existent addresses appearing on the display.

Si39-303 Appendix
7.12.2 Example 2: Mismatch between cables connecting indoor and

outdoor units and corresponding piping. (all model)
Situation The remote controller is not showing any malfunction and the system is operating but there is no flow of
warm air from the indoor unit (in heating mode).
Source of The connecting cables and the corresponding piping were not correctly matched.
Problem and Recabling was carried out and the fault disappeared.
Remedial Action
Main Points ! Special care must be taken when the pipework and cabling are carried out by different people.
! Run each indoor unit in turn to check that the system is correctly matched.

Appendix Si39-303
7.12.3 Example 3: Drain pipe trap shape defective

Situation Indoor unit was fitted with a drain trap but a leak occurred during subsequent operation.
Source of The trap was not properly shaped thus preventing it from functioning effectively as a trap and resulting in
Problem and drain leakage. The trap was reshaped and the fault disappeared.
Remedial Action
Main Points ! Duct types (40~125) require a drain trap.

Reason:There is resistance on the air inlet side caused by the heat exchanger and air filter and this in turn
creates negative pressure in relation to the atmospheric pressure on the discharge side. If there is no drain
trap then air will be drawn in from the drain pipe and the waste water splashed around giving rise to the risk
of water overflowing from the drain pan. To avoid this problem it is therefore necessary to design a trap
which takes account of the maximum negative pressure which is likely to be created on the suction side.

Si39-303 Appendix
7.12.4 Example 4: Pressure down despite absence of leaks during air tight
test (all model)
Situation In order to carry out local air tight tests on the refrigerant piping the system was pressurized via the liquid
pipe service port and after 24 hours the pressure was found to have fallen. The local refrigerant piping
alone does not lose any pressure. Maybe the gas leak is supposed to be located in the indoor unit itself.
Source of The system was pressurized from the liquid pipe side and the gas pipes were therefore not pressurized.
Problem and The system was then left under pressure for 24 hours but during that time gas leaked through into the gas
Remedial Action pipes due to internal leaks within electronic expansion valves and the gas pressure inside the liquid pipes
consequently dropped.
Indoor unit
Heat exchanger
Fan
Electronic
Filter expansion valve Filter
Main Points When carrying out air tight tests on local pipework it is essential that the system be pressurized via
both the liquid pipes and the gas pipes.

Appendix Si39-303
7.12.5 Example 5: Excessive noise due to incorrect angling of REFNET

joints
Situation The noise of the refrigerant flow during defrosting is excessive.
Source of The angle of the fittings was incorrect and needed to be rectified as shown in the following figure.
Problem and
Remedial Action 1. REFNET joints
The REFNET joints should be installed such that branches meet the main pipe either horizontally or
vertically at an angle of exactly 90 degrees.
2. REFNET header
The REFNET header is a lateral flow pipe and should be fitted so as to allow horizontal branch fittings.
(Vertical or sloping fitting is not permissible.)
Main Points ! Reasons for using refrigerant branch kit

Fittings of REFNET joints or headers which are not carried out in strict accordance with the principles
outlined here may result in complaints relating, for example, to “poor performance” of the system or
“noisy refrigerant flow”. (To prevent unbalance flow or oil shortage)

Si39-303 Appendix
7.12.6 Example 6: Cracks develop in field pipes due to thermal expansion

and contraction
Situation Refrigerant piping has developed cracks in soldered points and is leaking gas.
Cause Both ends of the pipe have been tightly fixed in place.
↓
Starting and stopping the compressor has caused temperature to vary, thus the pipes have expanded and
contracted which places stress on soldered parts.
↓
Cracks have formed because of repeated expansion and contraction.
Remedial Action Fit the pipe with a loop as shown in the below drawing.
Main Points ! Take thermal expansion and contraction along the spline into consideration when installing pipe
supports.
For Your Expansion (m) = Full length × Coefficient of thermal expansion × Rise in temperature
Reference Coefficient of thermal expansion for copper: 16.5 × 10-6
Example For a pipe length of 10 m and a rise in temperature of 50°C, expansion reaches 8.2 mm.

Appendix Si39-303
7.12.7 Example 7: Transmission wiring between the cool/heat selector and

the outdoor unit is too close to a high voltage wire.
Situation Heating is indicated despite having selected cooling with the cool/heat selector.
Cause and The transmission wiring between the cool/heat selector and the outdoor unit is too close to a high voltage
Remedial Action wire. An induced voltage is, therefore, being impressed on the transmission wiring which is causing a
heating/cooling malfunction in the outdoor unit PC board.
Bypassing the transmission wiring will allow the unit to function normally.
Main Points ! Keep low and high voltage wiring away from each another.
7.12.8 Example 8: The centralized control group number cannot be set

(Inverter K Series).
Situation An attempt was made to set the centralized control group number with the indoor unit remote controller, but
“00” cannot be selected in the field setting mode.
Cause 1. The central remote controller or unified ON/OFF controller is OFF.

2. The central remote controller or unified ON/OFF controller, or indoor unit is not wired to the centralized
control line (F1 & F2).
Remedial Action Supply power to either the central remote controller or unified ON/OFF controller.
Wire the central remote controller or unified ON/OFF controller, or indoor unit to the centralized control
line.
Main Points ! When communications with the central remote controller are down, “00” cannot be selected in the field
setting mode.
! Activate power to the central remote controller, unified ON/OFF controller and indoor unit before setting
the centralized control group number.

Si39-303 Appendix
7.12.9 Example 9: “88

88 cannot be cleared from the central remote
88”
controller.
Situation The display on the central remote controller does not change from its initial state after turning power ON.
Initial display of the central remote controller
Cause 1. None of the indoor units connected to the central remote controller have been given a group No.
2. The connector for setting the master controller inside the central remote controller is disconnected.
Remedial Action ! Set a centralized control group No. for each indoor unit with the respective remote controllers.
! Connect the connector for setting the master controller in one of the central remote controller.
Main Points ! If the setting for master controller has been changed, reset the power to the unit at the ON/OFF switch
or the forced reset switch of the controller.
! Activate power to the central remote controller, unified ON/OFF controller and indoor unit before setting
the centralized control group No.
! For details on how to set the centralized control group number, refer to the installation manual.

Installation Manual 153

Si39-303
Caution ! Read this manual attentively before starting up the unit. Do not throw it away. Keep it in your
files for future reference.
Caution ! Improper installation or attachment of equipment or accessories could result in electric

shock, short-circuit, leaks, fire or other damage to the equipment. Be sure only to use
accessories made by Daikin which are specifically designed for use with the equipment and
have them installed by a professional.
If unsure of installation procedures or use, always contact your Daikin dealer for advice and
information.
Caution ! The refrigerant R410A requires strict cautions for keeping the system clean, dry and tight.
! A.Clean and dry
Foreign materials (including mineral oils such as SUNISO oil or moisture) should be
prevented from getting mixed into the system.
! B.Tight
R410A does not contain any chlorine, does not destroy the ozone layer, and does not
reduce the earth’s protection against harmful ultraviolet radiation.
R410A can contribute slightly to the greenhouse effect if it is released. Therefore we should
take special attention to check the tightness of the installation.
! Read the chapter “Refrigerant piping work” carefully and follow these procedures correctly.
Caution ! Since design pressure is 3.8MPa or 38bar (for R407C units: 3.3MPa or 33bar), pipes of
larger wall thickness may be required.
! Since R410A is a mixed refrigerant, the required additional refrigerant must be charged in its
liquid state. (If the refrigerant is charged in a state of gas, its composition changes and the
system will not work properly.)
! The indoor unit is for R410A. See the catalog for indoor unit models which can be
connected.
(Normal operation is not possible when connected to other units.)
Caution ! Do not allow children to mount on the outdoor unit, or avoid placing any object on it. Falling
or tumble may result in injury.

Si39-303 Main Components
2. Main Components
For main components and function of the main components, refer to the Engineering Data Book
and the Service Manual Si39-302.

Selection of Location Si39-303
3. Selection of Location
This unit, both indoor and outdoor, is suitable for installation in a commercial and light industrial
environment. If installed as a household appliance it could cause electromagnetic interference.
The VRV OUTDOOR units should be installed in a location that meets the following
requirements:
1. The foundation is strong enough to support the weight of the unit and the floor is flat to
prevent vibration and noise generation.
2. The space around the unit is adequate for servicing and the minimum space for air inlet and
air outlet is available.
(refer to figure below and choose one of both possibilities)
< If installed as a single unit > < When installed in serial >

3. There is no danger of fire due to leakage of inflammable gas.

4. Ensure that water cannot cause any damage to the location in case it drips out the unit (e.g.
in case of a blocked drain pipe).
5. The piping length between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit may not exceed the allowable
piping length. (see “Example of connection”)
6. Select the location of the unit in such a way that neither the discharged air nor the sound
generated by the unit disturb anyone.
7. Make sure that the air inlet and outlet of the unit are not positioned towards the main wind
direction. Frontal wind will disturb the operation of the unit. If necessary, use a windscreen to
block the wind.
Caution 1. An inverter air conditioner may cause electronic noise generated from AM broadcasting.
Examine where to install the main air conditioner and electric wires, keeping proper
distances away from stereo equipment, personal computers, etc.

If the electric wave of AM broadcasting is particularly weak, keep distances of 3m or more

and use conduit tubes for power and transmission lines.
2. In heavy snowfall areas, select an installation site where snow will not affect operation of the
unit.
3. The refrigerant R410A itself is nontoxic, nonflammable and is safe. If the refrigerant should
leak however, its concentration may exceed the allowable limit depending on room size. Due
to this it could be necessary to take measures against leakage. Refer to the chapter “Caution
for refrigerant leaks”.
4. Do not install in the following locations.
• Locations such as kitchens which contain a lot of mineral oil or steam in the atmosphere or
where oil may splatter on the unit.
Resin parts may deteriorate, causing the unit to fall or leak.

Si39-303 Selection of Location
• Locations where sulfurous acids and other corrosive gases may be present in the
atmosphere.
Copper piping and soldered joints may corrode, causing refrigerant to leak.
• Locations where equipment that produces electromagnetic waves is found.
The electromagnetic waves may cause the control system to malfunction, preventing
normal operation.
• Locations where flammable gases may leak, where thinner, gasoline, and other volatile
substances are handled, or where carbon dust and other incendiary substances are found
in the atmosphere.
Leaked gas may accumulate around the unit, causing an explosion.

Si39-303 Refrigerant Piping
6. Refrigerant Piping
Caution After completing installation, be sure to open the valve.
(See 6-6 Additional refrigerant charge for details) (Operating the unit with the valve shut will
break the compressor.)
Use R410A to add refrigerant. (The R410A refrigerant cylinder has a pink stripe painted around
it.)
All field piping must be installed by a licensed refrigeration technician and must comply with
relevant local and national regulations.
Caution to be taken when brazing refrigerant piping

Do not use flux when brazing copper-to copper refrigerant piping. (Particularly for the HFC
refrigerant piping) Therefore, use the phosphor copper brazing filter metal (BCuP) which does
not require flux.
(Flux has extremely harmful influence on refrigerant piping systems. For instance, if the chlorine
based flux is used, it will cause pipe corrosion or, in particular, if the flux contains fluorine, it will
damage the refrigerant oil.)
Notes: ! Use R410A only when adding refrigerant.

! Installation tools:
Make sure to use installation tools (gauge manifold charge hose, etc.) that are exclusively
used for R410A installations to withstand the pressure and to prevent foreign materials (e.g.
mineral oils such as SUNISO and moisture) from mixing into the system.
(The screw specifications differ for R410A and R407C.)
Vacuum pump (use a 2-stage vacuum pump with a non-return valve):
1.Make sure the pump oil does not flow oppositely into the system while the pump is not
working.
2.Use a vacuum pump which can evacuate to –100.7 kPa (5Torr, –755mmHg).
6.1 Selection of Piping Material

1. Foreign materials inside pipes (including oils for fabrication) must be 30mg/10m or less.
2. Use the following material specification for refrigerant pipping:
• Construction material: Phosphoric acid deoxidized seamless copper for refrigerant.
• Size: Determine the proper size referring to chapter “Example of connection”.
• The wall thickness of the refrigerant piping should comply with relevant local and national
regulations. For R410A the design pressure is 3.8 MPa.
3. Make sure to use the particular branches of piping that have been selected referring to
chapter “Example of connection”.

Caution Be sure to use the attached pipe when carrying out piping work in the field.
Be sure that the local piping does not touch other pipes, the bottom panel or side panel.
Especially for the bottom and side connection, be sure to protect the local piping with the
provided insulation, to prevent it from coming into contact with the casing.
Precautions when knocking out knock holes

! Be sure to avoid damaging the casing
! After knocking out the holes, we recommend you paint the edges and areas around the
edges using the repair paint to prevent rusting.
! When passing electrical wiring through the knock holes, wrap the wiring with protective tape
to prevent damage.
! Open knock holes around the 4 concave knock holes in the base frame, using a φ6mm-bit
drill.

4. Pipe connection
• Only use the flare nuts included with the unit.
Using different flare nuts may cause the refrigerant to leak.
• Be sure to perform a nitrogen blow when brazing.
(Brazing without performing nitrogen replacement or releasing nitrogen into the piping will
create large quantities of oxidized film on the inside of the pipes, adversely affecting
valves and compressors in the refrigerating system and preventing normal operation.)
• Do not use a flux when brazing the refrigerant pipe joints.
Use phosphor copper brazing (BCup) which does not require flux.
(Using a chlorine flux may cause the pipes to corrode, and if it contains fluoride it may
cause the refrigerant lubricant to deteriorate, adversely affecting the refrigerant piping
system.)
Notes: ! The pressure regulator for the nitrogen released when doing the brazing should be set to
0.02 MPa(0.2kg/cm2) or less.

6.4 Leak test and Vacuum Drying

The units were checked for leaks by the manufacturer.
Confirm that the valves are firmly closed before pressure test or vacuuming.
To prevent entry of any impurities and insure sufficient pressure resistance, always use the
special tools dedicated for R410A.
Air tight test and vacuum drying

! Air tight test: Make sure to use nitrogen gas.
(For the service port location, refer to the “Caution” label attached on the front panel [right] of
the outdoor unit.)

Pressurize the liquid and gas pipes to 3.8MPa (38bar) (do not pressurize more than 3.8MPa
(38bar)). If the pressure does not drop within 24 hours, the system passes the test. If the
pressure drops, check where the nitrogen leaks from.
! Vacuum drying: Use a vacuum pump which can evacuate to –100.7kPa (5Torr, –
755mmHg).
1. Evacuate the system from the liquid and gas pipes by using a vacuum pump for more
than 2 hours and bring the system to
–100.7kPa. After keeping the system under that condition for more than 1 hour, check if
the vacuum gauge rises or not. If it rises, the system may either contain moisture inside or
have leaks.
2. Following should be executed if there is a possibility of moisture remaining inside the pipe
(if piping work is carried out during the raining season or over a long period of time
rainwater may enter the pipe during work).
After evacuating the system for 2 hours, pressurize the system to 0.05MPa (vacuum
break) with nitrogen gas and evacuate the system again using the vacuum pump for 1
hour to
–100.7kPa (vacuum drying). If the system cannot be evacuated to –100.7kPa within 2
hours, repeat the operation of vacuum break and vacuum drying.
Then, after leaving the system in vacuum for 1 hour, confirm that the vacuum gauge does
not rise.
Notes: Make sure to perform airtightness test and vacuum drying using the service ports of the shutoff
valve shown in the table on the bellow.

Disposal requirements
Dismantling of the unit, treatment of the refrigerant, oil and eventual other parts, should be done
in accordance with the relevant local and national regulations.
6.5 Pipe Insulation

After finishing the leak test and vacuum drying, the piping must be insulated. Take into account
the following points:
! Make sure to insulate the connection piping and refrigerant branch kits entirely.
! Be sure to insulate the liquid-side and gas-side piping for the inter-unit piping and the
refrigerant branch kits and always use Q18-type or better insulation for the oil pressure
equalizer.
! Not insulating them may cause leaking. (The gas piping can reach temperatures of 120°C.
Be sure the insulation used can withstand such temperatures.)
! If you think the humidity around the cooling piping might exceed 30°C and RH80%, reinforce
the insulation on the cooling piping (at least 20mm thick). Condensation might form on the
surface of the insulation.
! If there is a possibility that condensation on the shut-off valve might drip down into the indoor
unit through gaps in the insulation and piping because the outdoor unit is located higher than
the indoor unit, etc., this must be prevented by corking the connections, etc.

6.6 Additional refrigerant charge

Caution Refrigerant cannot be charged until field wiring has been completed.
Refrigerant may only be charged after performing the leak test and the vacuum drying (see
above).
When charging a system, care shall be taken that its maximum permissible charge is never
exceeded, in view of the danger of liquid hammer.
Charging with an unsuitable substance may cause explosions and accidents, so always ensure
that the appropriate refrigerant (R410A) is charged.
Refrigerant containers shall be opened slowly.
Always use protective gloves and protect your eyes when charging refrigerant.
To avoid compressor breakdown. Do not charge the refrigerant more than the specified amount
to raise the condensing pressure.
! This outdoor unit is factory charged with refrigerant and depending on pipe sizes and pipe
lengths some systems require additional charging of refrigerant.
! Charge the refrigerant to the liquid pipe in its liquid state. Since R410A is a mixed refrigerant,
its composition changes if charged in a state of gas and normal system operation would no
longer be assured.
! Before filling, check whether the tank has a siphon attached or not.
How to fill a tank with a siphon attached.

Fill with the tank upright.
There is a siphon tube
inside, so there is no need
to turn the tank upside-down.
Other ways of filling the tank

Fill with the tank upside-down.
! Determine the amount of refrigerant to be added by referring to the table, write it down on
the included “Added Refrigerant” plate and attach it to the rear side of the front cover.
Note: refer to the example of connection for the amount to be added.
! After the vacuum drying is finished, charge the additional refrigerant in its liquid state
through the liquid stop valve service port. Taking into account following instructions:
1.Check that gas and liquid stop valves are closed.
2.Stop the compressor and charge the specified weight of refrigerant.
! If the outdoor unit is not in operation and the total amount cannot be charged, follow the
procedures for additional refrigerant charge shown below.
! Make sure to use installation tools you exclusively use on R410A installations to withstand
the pressure and to prevent foreign materials from mixing into the system.

7.3 General
! Up to 3 units can be connected by crossover power source wiring between outdoor units.
However, units of smaller capacity must be connected downstream. For details, refer to the
equipment design data and technical data.
! Make sure to connect the power source wire to the power source terminal block and to
clamp it as shown in figure 14, chapter “Field line connection”.
! As this unit is equipped with an inverter, installing a phase advancing capacitor not only will
deteriorate power factor improvement effect, but also may cause capacitor abnormal heating
accident due to high-frequency waves. Therefore, never install a phase advancing capacitor.
! Keep power imbalance within 2% of the supply rating.

1. Large imbalance will shorten the life of the smoothing capacitor.
2. As a protective measure, the product will stop operating and an error indication will be
made, when power imbalance exceeds 4% of the supply rating.
! Follow the “electrical wiring diagram” when carrying out any electrical wiring.
! Only proceed with wiring work after blocking off all power.
! Always ground wires. (In accordance with national regulations of the pertinent country.)
! Do not connect the ground wire to gas pipes, sewage pipes, lightning rods, or telephone
ground wires.
• Gas pipes: can explode or catch fire if there is a gas leak.
• Sewage pipes: no grounding effect is possible if hard plastic piping is used.
• Telephone ground wires and lightning rods: dangerous when struck by lightning due to
abnormal rise in electrical potential in the grounding.
! This unit uses an inverter, and therefore generates noise, which will have to be reduced to
avoid interfering with other devices. The outer casing of the product may take on an
electrical charge due to leaked electrical current, which will have to be discharged with the
grounding.
! Be sure to install an earth leak detector. (One that can handle higher harmonics.)
(This unit uses an inverter, which means that an earth leak detector capable handling high
harmonics in order to prevent malfunctioning of the earth leak detector itself.)
! Earth leak detector which are especially for protecting ground-faults should be used in
conjunction with main switch or fuse for use with wiring.
! This unit has a negative phase protection circuit. (If it operates, only operate the unit after
correcting the wiring.)

Precautions when knocking out knock holes

! To punch a knock hole, hit on it with a hammer.
! After knocking out the holes, we recommend you paint the edges and areas around the
edges using the repair paint to prevent rusting.
! When passing electrical wiring through the knock holes, remove any burrs from the knock
holes and wrap the wiring with protective tape to prevent damage.
Knockout hole
If there are any possibilities that

Burr small animals enter the system
through the knock holes,
plug the holes with packing
materials (to be prepared onsite).
Caution ! Use a power wire pipe for the power wiring.

! Outside the unit, make sure the weak electric wiring (i.e. for the remote control, between
units, etc.) and the strong electric wiring do not pass near each other, keeping them at least
50 mm apart. Proximity may cause electrical interference, malfunctions, and breakage.
! Be sure to connect the power wiring to the power wiring terminal block and secure it as
described in 7-4 Field line connection.
! Inter-unit wiring should be secured as described in 7-4 Field line connection.
• Secure the wiring with the accessory clamps so that it does not touch the piping.
• Make sure the wiring and the electric box lid do not stick up above the structure, and close
the cover firmly.
Never connect 200V to the terminal block of the interconnecting wiring. Doing so will break the
entire system.
! The wiring from the indoor units must be connected to the F1/F2 (In-Out) terminals on the
PC board in the outdoor unit.
! After installing the interconnecting wires inside the unit, wrap them along with the onsite
refrigerant pipes using finishing tape, as shown below.

9. Caution for Refrigerant Leaks

9.1 Caution for Refrigerant Leaks
9.1.1 Introduction
Points to note in connection with refrigerant leaks
The installer and system specialist shall secure safety against leakage according to local
regulations or standards. The following standards may be applicable if local regulations are not
available.
9.1.2 Maximum Concentration Level

The maximum charge of refrigerant and the calculation of the maximum concentration of
refrigerant is directly related to the humanly occupied space in to which it could leak. The unit of
measurement of the concentration is kg/m3 (the weight in kg of the refrigerant gas in 1m3
volume of the occupied space). Compliance to the local applicable regulations and standards of
the maximum allowable concentration level is required. In Australia the maximum allowed
concentration level of refrigerant to a humanly space is limited to 0.35kg/m3 for R407C and
0.44kg/m3 for R410A.
O tdoor nit
Direction of refrigerant flow
Room where
refrigerant leak has
Indoor nit occurred (Outflow
of all the refrigerant
in system).
Pay special attention to the place, such as a basement, etc., where refrigerant can stay, since
refrigerant is heavier than air.
9.1.3 Procedure for Checking Dangerous Concentration

Check the Dangerous concentration in accordance with steps (1)-(4) below and take whatever
action is necessary.
Step1: Calculate the amount of refrigerant (kg) charged to each system separately.
(Amount of refrigerant (Additional charging Total amount of
in a single indoor + amount) = refrigerant (kg) in
unit system) the system
Amount of refrigerant with which

the system is charged before
leaving the factory
Amount of refrigerant added

locally in accordance with the
length or diameter of the
refrigerant piping
Notes: Where a single refrigerant facility is divided onto 2 entirely independent refrigerant systems then
use the amounts of refrigerant with which each separate system of charged.

Si39-303 Caution for Refrigerant Leaks
Step 2: Calculate the smallest room volume (m3).

In a case like the following calculate the volume of (a), (b) as a single room or as the smallest
room.
(a) Where there are no smaller room divisions
O tdoor nit
Indoor nit
(b) Where there is a room division but there is an opening between the rooms sufficiently large
to permit a free flow of air back and forth.
O tdoor nit
Indoor nit
Opening between rooms
Partition
(Where there is an opening without a door or where there are openings above and below the
door which are each equivalent in size to 0.15% or more of the floor area.)
(c) Where there is a gas leak detection alarm device linked to a mechanical ventilator in the
smallest room then the next smallest room will become the measurement target.
O tdoor nit
Smallest Second Indoor nit

room smallest
room
Step 3: Calculate the refrigerant density using the results of the calculations in Step (1) and (2)
above.
Total volume of refrigerant
in the refrigerant system
<= Dangerous concentration (kg/m3)
Size (m3) of the smallest room in
which there is an indoor unit
installed
in the case of: R407C = 0.35kg/m3, R410A = 0.44kg/m3
If the result of the above calculation exceeds the dangerous concentration level then make
similar calculations for the second then third smallest room and so on until the result falls short
of the concentration level.

Step 4: Dealing with situations where the result exceeds the dangerous concentration level.
Where the installation of a facility results in a concentration in excess of the dangerous
concentration level then it may be necessary to revise the system design to dome extent or else
take one of the following courses of action.
Action 1: Making openings which will allow the air to flow freely into the room.
Make openings above and below the door which are each equivalent in size to 0.15%
or more of the floor area or make a doorless opening.
Action 2: Fit a mechanical ventilator linked to a gas leak detection alarm device.
Action 2: Gas Indoor nit Action 1: Make

6.5 Setting the Master Remote Controller

! When the system is installed, it is necessary to designate one of the remote controllers as
the master remote controller.
For RXYQ series
When one outdoor unit is connected with several indoor units.
For REYQ series
! Only the master remote controller can select heating and cooling or automatic (only REYQ
series) operation.
! The displays of slave remote controllers show “ ” (changeover under control) and
they automatically follow the operation mode directed by the master remote controller.
However, it is possible to changeover to program dry with slave remote controllers if the system
is in cooling operation set by the master remote controller.
How to designate the master remote controller

6.6 Precautions for group control system or two remote

controller control system
This system provides two other control systems beside individual control (one remote controller
controls one indoor unit) system. Confirm the following if your unit is of the following control
system type.
! Group control system
One remote controller controls up to 16 indoor units. All indoor units are equally set.
! Two remote controller control system

Two remote controllers control one indoor unit (in case of group control system, one group of
indoor units). The unit is individually operated.
Notes: ! Contact your Daikin dealer in case of changing the combination or setting of group control
and two remote controller control systems.

Optimum Operation Si39-303
7. Optimum Operation
Observe the following precautions to ensure the system operates properly.
! Adjust the air outlet properly and avoid direct air flow to room inhabitants.
! Adjust the room temperature properly for a comfortable environment. Avoid excessive
heating or cooling.
! Prevent direct sunlight from entering a room during cooling operation by using curtains or
blinds.
! Ventilate often.
Extended use requires special attention to ventilation.
! Keep doors and windows closed. If the doors and windows remain open, air will flow out of
your room causing a decrease in the cooling or heating effect.
! Never place objects near the air inlet or the air outlet of the unit. It may cause deterioration in
the effect or stop the operation.
! Turn off the main power supply switch to the unit when the unit is not used for longer periods
of time. If the switch is on, it uses electricity. Before restarting the unit, turn on the main
power supply switch 6 hours before operation to ensure smooth running. (Refer to the
chapter “Maintenance” in the indoor unit manual.)
! When the display shows “ ” (time to clean the air filter), ask a qualified service person to
clean the filters. (Refer to the chapter “Maintenance” in the indoor unit manual.)
! Keep the indoor unit and remote control at least 1 m away from televisions, radios, stereos,
and other similar equipment.
Failing to do so may cause static or distorted pictures.
! Do not place items under the indoor unit which may be damaged by water.
Condensation may form if the humidity is above 80% or if the drain outlet gets blocked.

Si39-303 Following Symptoms are not Air Conditioner Troubles
8. Following Symptoms are not Air Conditioner

Troubles
8.1 The System does not operate
! The air conditioner does not start immediately after the ON/OFF button on the remote
controller is pushed.
If the operation lamp lights, the system is in normal condition.
To prevent overloading of the compressor motor, the air conditioner starts 5 minutes after it
is turned ON again in case it was turned OFF just before. The same starting delay occurs
after the operation mode selector button was used.
! If “Centralized Control” is displayed on the remote control and pressing the operation
button causes the display to blink for a few seconds.
This indicates that the central device is controlling the unit.
The blinking display indicates that the remote control cannot be used.
! The system does not start immediately after the power supply is turned on.
Wait one minute until the micro computer is prepared for operation.
8.2 Cool/Heat cannot be Changed Over

! When the display shows “ ” (changeover under control), it shows that this
is a slave remote controller.
! When the cool/heat changeover remote control switch is installed and the display
shows “ ” (changeover under control).
This is because cool/heat changeover is controlled by the cool/heat changeover remote
control switch. Ask your Daikin dealer where the remote control switch is installed.
8.3 Fan Operation is Possible, but Cooling and Heating do

not Work
! Immediately after the power is turned on.
The micro computer is getting ready to operate. Wait 10 minutes.
8.4 The Fan Strength does not Correspond to the Setting

! The fan strength does no change even if the fan strength adjustment button in
pressed.
During heating operation, when the room temperature reaches the set temperature, the
outdoor unit goes off and the indoor unit changes to whisper fan strength.
This is to prevent cold air blowing directly on occupants of the room.
The fan strength will not change even if the button is changed, when another indoor unit is in
heating operation.
8.5 The Fan Direction does not Correspond to the Setting

! The fan direction does not correspond to the remote control display.
The fan direction does not swing.
This is because the unit is being controlled by the micro computer.

Following Symptoms are not Air Conditioner Troubles Si39-303
8.6 White Mist comes out of a Unit

Indoor unit
! When humidity is high during cooling operation.
If the interior of an indoor unit is extremely contaminated, the temperature distribution inside
a room becomes uneven. It is necessary to clean the interior of the indoor unit. Ask your
Daikin dealer for details on cleaning the unit. This operation requires a qualified service
person.
! Immediately after the cooling operation stops and if the room temperature and
humidity are low.
This is because warm refrigerant gas flows back into the indoor unit and generates steam.
Indoor unit, outdoor unit

! When the system is changed over to heating operation after defrost operation.
Moisture generated by defrost becomes steam and is exhausted.
8.7 Noise of Air Conditioners
Indoor unit
! A “zeen” sound is heard immediately after the power supply is turned on.
The electronic expansion valve inside an indoor unit starts working and makes the noise. Its
volume will reduce in about one minute.
! A continuous low “shah” sound is heard when the system is in cooling operation or
at a stop.
When the drain pump (optional accessories) is in operation, this noise is heard.
! A “pishi-pishi” squeaking sound is heard when the system stops after heating
operation.
Expansion and contraction of plastic parts caused by temperature change make this noise.
! A low “sah”, “choro-choro” sound is heard while the indoor unit is stopped.
When the other indoor unit is in operation, this noise is heard. In order to prevent oil and
refrigerant from remaining in the system, a small amount of refrigerant is kept flowing.
Indoor unit, outdoor unit

! A continuous low hissing sound is heard when the system is in cooling or defrost
operation.
This is the sound of refrigerant gas flowing through both indoor and outdoor units.
! A hissing sound which is heard at the start or immediately after stopping operation or
defrost operation.
This is the noise of refrigerant caused by flow stop or flow change.
8.8 Dust comes out of the Unit

! When the unit is used for the first time in a long time.
This is because dust has gotten into the unit.
Outdoor unit
! When the tone of operating noise changes.
This noise is caused by the change of frequency.
8.9 The Units can Give off Odours

! The unit can absorb the smell of rooms, furniture, cigarettes, etc., and then emit it
again.
8.10 The Outdoor Unit Fan does not Spin

! During operation.
The speed of the fan is controlled in order to optimize product operation.

Si39-303 Following Symptoms are not Air Conditioner Troubles
8.11 The Display Shows "88"

! This is the case immediately after the main power supply switch is turned on and
means that the remote controller is in normal condition. This continues for one
minute.
8.12 The Compressor in the Outdoor Unit does not Stop after
a Short Heating Operation
! This is to prevent oil and refrigerant from remaining in the compressor. The unit will
stop after 5 to 10 minutes.
8.13 The Inside of an Outdoor Unit is Warm even when the

Unit has stopped
! This is because the crankcase heater is warming the compressor so that the
compressor can start smoothly.

1.2 Refrigerant Cylinders

! Cylinder specifications
2 The cylinder is painted refrigerant color (pink).
2 The cylinder valve is equipped with a siphon tube.
Cylinder
Siphon tube
Refrigerant can be charged in liquid state with cylinder in
upright position.
Caution: Do not lay cylinder on its side during charging, since

it cause refrigerant in gas state to enter the system.
! Handling of cylinders
(1) Laws and regulations
R410A is liquefied gas, and the High-Pressure Gas Safety Law must be observed in
handling them. Before using, refer to the High-Pressure Gas Safety Law.
The Law stipulates standards and regulations that must be followed to prevent accidents
with high-pressure gases. Be sure to follow the regulations.
(2) Handing of vessels

Since R410A is high-pressure gas, it is contained in high-pressure vessels.
Although those vessels are durable and strong, careless handling can cause damage that
can lead to unexpected accidents. Do not drop vessels, let them fall, apply impact or roll
them on the ground.
(3) Storage
Although R410A is not flammable, it must be stored in a well-ventilated, cool, and dark place
in the same way as any other high-pressure gases.
It should also be noted that high-pressure vessels are equipped with safety devices that
releases gas when the ambient temperature reaches more than a certain level (fusible plug
melts) and when the pressure exceeds a certain level (spring-type safety valve operates).

1.3 Service Tools

R410A is used under higher working pressure, compared to previous refrigerants (R22,R407C).
Furthermore, the refrigerating machine oil has been changed from Suniso oil to Ether oil, and if
oil mixing is occurred, sludge results in the refrigerants and causes other problems. Therefore,
gauge manifolds and charge hoses that are used with a previous refrigerant (R22,R407C) can
not be used for products that use new refrigerants.
Be sure to use dedicated tools and devices.
