CHAPTER 6: OPERATION DETAILS

1. SAFETY CONTROL

● 3 minutes delay for compressor

The compressor is ceased for 3 minutes to balance the pressure in the refrigeration cycle in order to protect the compressor.

● 59 seconds delay for reversing valve

The 4-way reversing valve delay for 59 seconds to prevent the refrigerant abnormal noise when the HEATING operation is OFF or switched to other operation modes.

• Over-current control

The compressor will be switched OFF when it is over-current for 5 seconds, and when the current is normal and the compressor has been stopped for 3 minutes, the compressor will be turned ON.

- Freeze preventive control

When the indoor pipe temperature falls below -1^ during COOLING or DRY operation for 3 minutes, the compressor and outdoor fan motor turn OFF with buzzer 3 beeps. When the indoor pipe temperature recovers to 5^ and the compressor has been stopped for 3 minutes, the compressor and outdoor fan motor will be turned ON.

  1. PIPING AND DRAINAGE OF INDOOR UNIT

● Preparation of piping

1) Cut the pipes and the cable

Use the accessory piping kit or the pipes purchased locally.
Measure the distance between the indoor and the outdoor units.
Cut the pipes a little longer than measured distance.

Pipe cutter 90° Slanted Rough

Cut the cable a 1.5m longer than the pipe length.

Pipe Reamer Point down

= Improper flaring = Inclined Surface Cracked Uneven damaged thickness

When properly flared, the internal surface flare will evenly shine and be of even thickness. Since the flare part comes into contact with the connectors, carefully check the flare finish.

2) Remove burrs

Remove burrs from cut edges of pipes.
Turn the pipe end down to avoid the metal powder entering the pipe.
Caution: If the burrs are not removed, they may cause a gas leakage.

3) Flaring the pipes

Insert the flare nuts, mounted on the connection ports of both indoor and outdoor units, onto the copper pipes. Some refrigerant gas may leak, when the flare nuts are removed from the indoor unit, as some gas is charged to prevent the inside of the pipe from rusting.

Fit the copper pipe end into the bar of flare tool about 0\~0.5mm higher.

Flare the pipe ends.

4) Tape the flaring portion to protect it from the dust or damages.

- Indoor unit installation

Hook the indoor unit onto the upper portion of installation plate.(Engage the two hooks of the rear top of the indoor unit with the upper edge of the installation plate.)

Ensure the hooks are properly seated on the installation plate by moving it in left and right.

  • Open the valve (Low side) on the charge set and discharged the refrigerant until the gauge indicates 0kg/cm^2 .
    If there is no air in the refrigerant cycle (the pressure when the air conditioner is not running is higher than 1 kg/cm^2 · g ), discharge the refrigerant until the gauge indicates 0.5 to 1 kg/cm^2 · g . If this is the case, it will not be necessary to apply an evacuation.
    Discharge the refrigerant gradually. If it is discharged too suddenly, the refrigeration oil will also be discharged.

5. EVACUATION (ALL AMOUNT OF REFRIGERANT LEAKED)

  • Connect the vacuum pump to the charge set's center hose.
    ● Evacuating for approximately one hour.
    Confirm that the gauge needle has moved toward -76cmHg (vacuum of 4 mmHg or less)

  • Close the valve (Low side) on the charge set, turn off the vacuum pump, and confirm that the gauge needle does not move (approximately 5 minutes after turning off the vacuum pump).

  • Disconnect the charge hose from the vacuum pump.
    If the vacuum pump oil becomes dirty or depleted, replenish as needed.

6. GAS CHARGING (AFTER EVACUATION)

  • Connect the charge hose to the charging cylinder.
    Connect the charge hose which you disconnected from the vacuum pump to the valve at the bottom of the cylinder.
    If you are using a gas cylinder, also use a scale and level the cylinder so that the system can be charged with liquid.
    ● Purge the air from the charge hose.
    Open the valve at the bottom of the cylinder and press the check valve on the charge set to purge the air.(Be careful of the liquid refrigerant).The procedure is the same if using a gas cylinder.
  • Open the valve (Low side on the charge set) and charge the system with liquid

refrigerant.

If the system can not be charged with the specified amount of refrigerant, it can be charged with a little at a time (approximately 150g each time) while operating the air conditioner in the cooling cycle. However, one time is not sufficient, wait approximately 1 minute and then repeat the procedure (pumping down pin).
This is different from previous procedures. Because you are charging with liquid refrigerant from the gas side, absolutely do not attempt to charge with larger amounts of liquid refrigerant while operating the air conditioner.
- Immediately disconnect the charge hose from the 3-way valve's service port.
Stopping partway will allow the gas to be discharged.
If the system has been charged with liquid refrigerant while operating the air conditioner before disconnecting the hose.
● Mount the valve caps and service port cap.
Use torque wrench to tighten the service port cap to a torque of 1.8kg.m.
Be sure to check for gas leakage.
