Seal a small opening around the pipings with gum type sealant. Trap TrapLeakage test and Evacuation
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system have undesirable effects as indicated below.
- Pressure in the system rises.
- Operating current rises.
- Cooling(or heating) efficiency drops.
- Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and block capillary tubing.
- Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigeration system.
Therefore, the indoor/outdoor unit and connecting tube must be checked for leak tight, and vacuumed to remove incondensible gas and moisture in the system.
Preparation
- Check that each tube(both liquid and gas side tubes) between the indoor and outdoor units have been properly connected and all wiring for the test run has been completed. Remove the service valve caps from both the gas and the liquid side on the outdoor unit. Check that both the liquid and the gas side service valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at this stage.
Leakage test
- Connect the manifold valve(with pressure gauges) and dry nitrogen gas cylinder to this service port with charge hoses.

CAUTION: Be sure to use a manifold valve for leakage test.
If it is not available, use a stop valve for this purpose. The "Hi" knob of the manifold valve must always be kept close.
- Pressurize the system to no more than 3.0 Mpa with dry nitrogen gas and close the cylinder valve when the gauge reading reached 3.0 MPa Next, test for leaks with liquid soap.

CAUTION: To avoid nitrogen entering the refrigerant system in a liquid
state, the top of the cylinder must be higher than its bottom when you pressurize the system. Usually, the cylinder is used in a vertical standing position.
-
Do a leakage test of all joints of the tubing(both Indoor unit and outdoor unit) and both gas and liquid side service valves. Bubbles indicate a leak. Be sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.
-
After the system is found to be free of leaks, relieve the nitrogen pressure by loosening the charge hose connector at the nitrogen cylinder. When the system pressure is reduced to normal, disconnect the hose from the cylinder.

text_image
Indoor unit Outdoor unit Manifold valve Pressure gauge Charge hose Nitrogen gas cylinder(in vertical standing position)Evacuation
- Connect the charge hose end described in the preceding steps to the vacuum pump to evacuate the tubing and indoor unit.
Confirm the "Lo and Hi" knob of the manifold valve is open. Then, run the vacuum pump.
The operation time for evacuation varies with tubing length and capacity of the pump. The following table shows the time required for evacuation.
| Required time for evacuation when 30 gal/h vacuum pump is used | |
| If tubing length is less than 10 m(33 ft) | If tubing length is longer than 10 m(33 ft) |
| 30 min. or more 60 min. or more | |
| 0.07 kPa or less | |
- When the desired vacuum is reached, close the "Lo and Hi" knob of the manifold valve and stop the vacuum pump.
Finishing the job
-
With a service valve wrench, turn the valve stem of liquid side valve counter-clockwise to fully open the valve.
-
Turn the valve stem of gas side valve counterclockwise to fully open the valve.
-
Loosen the charge hose connected to the gas side service port slightly to release the pressure, then remove the hose.
-
Replace the flare nut and its bonnet on the gas side service port and fasten the flare nut securely with an adjustable wrench. This process is very important to prevent leakage from the system.
-
Replace the valve caps at both gas and liquid side service valves and fasten them tight.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump.
The air conditioner is now ready to test run.

- Ensure the difference between the intake temperature and the discharge one is more than 8^ C (Cooling) or reversely (Heating).

CAUTION: After the confirmation of the above conditions, prepare the wiring as follows:
1) Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram pasted on the inside of control box cover.
2) Provide a circuit breaker switch between power source and the unit.
3) The screw which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liable to come loose from vibrations to which the unit is subjected during the course of transportation. Check them and make sure that they are all tightly fastened. (If they are loose, it could give rise to burn-out of the wires.)
4) Specification of power source
5) Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
6) Be sure that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage marked on the name plate.
7) Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power sources specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness.)
8) Never fail to equip a leakage breaker where it is wet or moist.
9) The following troubles would be caused by voltage drop-down.
- Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point there of fuse breaking, disturbance to the normal function of a overload protection device.
- Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.

2) Reset the power.
3) Red LED and Green LED of PCB lights during work. (The indoor unit is operated by force.)
4) If operation is done, Red LED will be turned off.
If operation is not done normally, Red LED will blink.
5) Close the Liquid valve only after green LED turned off (7 minutes from the start of the machine). Then close the gas valve after Green LED on.

WARNING:
- When the green LED of PCB is on, compressor is going to be off because of low pressure.
- You should return the Dip Switch to operate normally after finishing the operation.
- Improper Pump down will lead to product turn off along with LED (green &red) off with in 20 minutes from the initial start.

Installation Guide at the Seaside

CAUTION:
- Air conditioners should not be installed in areas where corrosive gases, such as acid or alkaline gas, are produced.
- Do not install the product where it could be exposed to sea wind (salty wind) directly. It can result corrosion on the product. Corrosion, particularly on the condenser and evaporator fins, could cause product malfunction or inefficient performance.
- If outdoor unit is installed close to the seaside, it should avoid direct exposure to the sea wind. Otherwise it needs additional anticorrosion treatment on the heat exchanger.
Selecting the location(Outdoor Unit)
1) If the outdoor unit is to be installed close to the seaside, direct exposure to the sea wind should be avoided. Install the outdoor unit on the opposite side of the sea wind direction.
