TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

Here are some tips that will help you minimize the power consumption when you use the air conditioner. You can use your air conditioner more efficiently by referring to the instructions below:

  • Do not cool excessively indoors. This may be harmful to your health and may consume more electricity.
  • Block sunlight with blinds or curtains while you are operating the air conditioner.
  • Keep doors or windows closed tightly while you are operating the air conditioner.
  • Adjust the direction of the air flow vertically or horizontally to circulate indoor air.
  • Speed up the fan to cool or warm indoor air quickly, in a short period of time.
  • Open windows regularly for ventilation as the indoor air quality may deteriorate if the air conditioner is used for many hours.
  • Clean the air filter once every 2 weeks. Dust and impurities collected in the air filter may block the air flow or weaken the cooling / dehumidifying functions.

FLARING WORK AND CONNECTION OF PIPING

Flaring work

Main cause for gas leakage is due to defect in flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work in the following procedure.

Cut the pipes and the cable

  • Use the piping kit accessory or the pipes purchased locally.
  • Measure the distance between the indoor and the outdoor unit.
  • Cut the pipes a little longer than measured distance.
  • Cut the cable 1.5 m longer than the pipe length.

Burrs removal

  • Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section of pipe/tube.
  • Put the end of the copper tube/pipe in a downward direction as you remove burrs in order to avoid dropping burrs into the tubing.

Putting nut on

- Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and outdoor unit, then put them on pipe/tube having completed burr removal. (not possible to put them on after flaring work)

Flaring work

- Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown below.

Forming the Piping

Form the piping by wrapping the connecting portion of the indoor unit with insulation material and secure it with two kinds of vinyl tape. \- If you want to connect an additional drain hose, the end of the drain outlet should be routed above the ground. Secure the drain hose appropriately. In cases where the outdoor unit is installed below the indoor unit perform the following. 1 Tape the piping, drain hose and connecting cable from down to up. 2 Secure the tapped piping along the exterior wall using saddle or equivalent. ![](images/e374dac78905804c2a154426f6dbedc485b8b945518effc1e66a5a31a00ee7ad.jpg)

AIR PURGING AND EVACUATION

The 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, after evacuating the system, take a leak test for the piping and tubing between the indoor and outdoor unit.

Checking method

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 150 P.S.I.G. with dry nitrogen gas and close the cylinder valve when the gauge reading reached 150 P.S.I.G. 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 and outdoor) 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. ![](images/1a22fbfe743ef91a8b85f0a9bea0cb2151199627cd02ceb0b48b8c1d1c85363d.jpg)

WARNING

Use a vacuum pump or Inert (nitrogen) gas when doing leakage test or air purge. Do not compress air or Oxygen and do not use Flammable gases. Otherwise, it may cause fire or explosion. \- There is the risk of death, injury, fire or explosion.

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" 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)
Less than 0.5 Torr Less than 0.5 Torr
\- When the desired vacuum is reached, close the "Lo" 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. ![](images/68fa6155c814be2ba25dbfd4e316f38fc6b69b671c32581782e2264dc2e329ba.jpg)

MAX COMBINATION CAPACITY

Distributor Type
PhaseCapacity (kBtu/h)Max Room No.Combination Indoor Capacity (kBtu/h)Combination Capacity Range (kBtu/h)
1 ∅40 7 5, 7,9, 12, 18, 24 16~52
48 8 5, 7,9, 12, 18, 24 19~63
56 9 5, 7,9, 12, 18, 24 23~73
The combination of indoor unit is to be decided that the sum of indoor unit capacity index must be smaller than the maximum combination capacity of outdoor unit. We recommend to calculate indoor unit capacity like below. If you do not follow our recommendation, it will have some problems in low ambient condition i.e. some indoor unit will not be able to heat very well in heating mode.

CALCULATION METHOD FOR THE CONNECTABLE TOTAL CAPACITY OF INDOOR UNIT

Sum up the capacity of all indoor unit, but high static duct type indoor unit capacity weights 1.3 times Ex) 1 Outdoor unit : A9UW566FA3(FM56AH)(connectable maximum capacity is 73 kBtu) Indoor unit: AMNH186BHA0[MB18AH], AMNH246BHA0[MB24AH], AMNH246BHA0[MB24AH] (18 + 24 + 24) × 1.3 = 66 × 1.3 = 85.8 kBtu: this combination has a some problem 2 Out door unit: FM56AH Indoor unit: AMNH186BHA0[MB18AH], AMNH246BHA0[MB24AH], AMNH18GD5L0[MS18AH] (18 + 24) × 1.3 + 18 + 72.6: this combination can be ok

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)

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. ![](images/73f27ca093d409a1e8a521e3015a3feb2590b7335a1811f5a54d7dfa568f14d1.jpg)
text_image Sea wind ↓ Sea wind
In case, to install the outdoor unit on the seaside, set up a windbreak not to be exposed to the sea wind. ![](images/d36679e0c02b7cfdcd2b1b68e444d1119da918c8cb68bb1386b691bbc60c0412.jpg)
text_image Windbreak Sea wind
- It should be strong enough like concrete to prevent the sea wind from the sea. - The height and width should be more than 150 % of the outdoor unit. - It should be keep more than 70 cm of space between outdoor unit and the windbreak for easy air flow. Select a well-drained place. \- Periodic (more than once/year) cleaning of the dust or salt particles stuck on the heat exchanger by using water.

SEASONAL WIND AND CAUTIONS IN WINTER

- Sufficient measures are required in a snow area or severe cold area in winter so that product can be operated well. - Get ready for seasonal wind or snow in winter even in other areas. - Install a suction and discharge duct not to let in snow or rain. - Install the outdoor unit not to come in contact with snow directly. If snow piles up and freezes on the air suction hole, the system may malfunction. If it is installed at snowy area, attach the hood to the system. - Install the outdoor unit at the higher installation console by 50 cm than the average snowfall (annual average snowfall) if it is installed at the area with much snowfall. - Where snow accumulated on the upper part of the Outdoor Unit by more than 10 cm, always remove snow for operation. ![](images/1546cb6a54034c5edd7cdc95b42e77a29326a15ba10b81344e198773238cdd0d.jpg)
