Installation Information

All service technicians handling refrigerant must be licensed to handle refrigerant gases.

Recover and Recycle Refrigerants

Never release refrigerant to the atmosphere! It is an offence in Australia to do so. Always recover, recycle and reuse refrigerants. When removing from the system, properly contain and identify refrigerants in its dedicated container for proper disposal and/or storage. Always consider the recycle or reclaim requirements of the refrigerant before beginning the recovery procedures. Obtain a chemical analysis of the refrigerant if necessary. For the recovered refrigerant and acceptable refrigerant quality, refer to the existing standards and regulations.

Refrigerant Handling and Safety

Consult the refrigerant manufacturer's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for information on proper handling and to fully understand health, safety, storage and disposal requirements. Use the approved containment vessels and refer to appropriate safety standards. Comply with all applicable transportation standards when shipping refrigerant containers.

Service Equipment and Recovery Procedures

Always use refrigerant reclaiming equipment in order to minimise refrigerant emissions. Use equipment and methods which will pull the lowest possible system vacuum while recovering and condensing refrigerant. Equipment capable of pulling a vacuum of less than 500 microns is required.

Do not open the system to the atmosphere for service work until refrigerant is fully removed and/or recovered. Perform refrigeration system evacuation, prior to charging, in accordance with AIRAH / IRHACE Refrigerant handling code of practice.

Let the unit stand for 1 hour and with the vacuum not rising above 500 microns. A rise above 500 microns indicates a leak from the system and a leak test is required to locate and repair any leak.

CAUTION

A leak test is always required on any repaired section of the refrigeration system.

Charge refrigerant into the system only after the equipment does not leak or contain moisture. Take into consideration the correct amount of refrigerant charge specified for the system to ensure efficient unit operations. When charging is complete, reclaim refrigerant from charging lines into an approved refrigerant container. Seal all used refrigerant containers with approved closure devices to prevent unused refrigerant from escaping to the atmosphere. Take extra care to maintain all service equipment directly supporting refrigerant service work such as gauges, hoses, vacuum pumps and recycling equipment.

All electrical work must be carried out by a qualified technician. Make sure all wiring is in accordance with local wiring rules. Wiring connections should be made in accordance with the wiring diagram provided.

DANGER

Live Electrical Supply!

• During installation of your air conditioning unit, it may be necessary to work in close proximity to live electricity. Only qualified technicians are allowed to perform these tasks.
• Follow all electrical safety precautions when exposed to live electrical components.
• Always make sure that all power supply, including remote controls, are disconnected before performing maintenance. Observe proper LOCK-OUT / TAG-OUT (LOTO) procedures to ensure that power cannot be inadvertently energised. Failure to disconnect power before maintenance procedure can result in serious injury or death.
• All electrical wiring must be in accordance with the relevant electrical authority rules and regulations.

CAUTION

STATIC SENSITIVE ELECTRONIC DEVICES!

• DO NOT handle electronic devices unless you are wearing an Anti-Static Wrist Strap that is connected to a EARTH. Failure to protect the electronic devices from static electricity may cause unrepairable damage.
• Static damaged electronic devices are NOT COVERED for replacement under warranty.

Wiring Diagram

The wiring diagrams specific for your air conditioning system are located on the inside of the electrical access panel.

Always refer all wiring installation, servicing and troubleshooting of this equipment to this diagram to ensure correct electrical connections are satisfied.

Supply and Power Requirements Procedure

It is the installer's responsibility to provide power supply wiring to the sub-mains isolator. Wiring should conform to the current electrical authority regulations and all wiring connections to be as per electrical diagram provided with the unit.

• Confirm that the power supply available is compatible with the unit nameplate ratings. The supply power must be within +10% to -6% of the rated voltage as per AS60038.
• Protect electrical service from over current and short circuit conditions in accordance with the latest edition of the AS/NZS 3000 "Australian / New Zealand Wiring Rules". Protection devices are to be sized accordingly as per to the electrical specifications of the unit.
• Complete the outdoor unit power supply wiring into the sub-mains isolator.
• Secure the power cords and control cables that enters in/exits out the unit. Use the cable ties provided in the electrical panels.
• Provide proper unit earthing in accordance with local and national wiring rules.
• Installer to connect an appropriate load break (AC3) isolator in sub mains wiring.

Compressor Voltage Balance Requirement

Check the voltage at the mains supply terminals to determine if it is balanced. Voltage imbalance on three phase systems can cause motor overheating and premature failure. The maximum allowable imbalance is +2.0% should voltage imbalance exceed this value, check unit wiring connections to locate and rectify faults or contact local supply authority.

Crankcase Heater

Crankcase Heater is to be disconnected for pipe lengths 8m or less.

• It is important to work with absolute cleanliness.
• Brazing must be done with the use of Nitrogen to avoid carbon deposits into the pipes.
• The system must be evacuated thoroughly to 500 microns (see evacuation procedure).
• Never allow refrigerant to vent into the atmosphere. It is an offence to release refrigerant in Australia.
  • Always reclaim refrigerant using equipment and container dedicated for the refrigerant used in the system.
• Only qualified technicians are allowed to perform any work described in this guide.
• All work must be carried out in accordance with Australia and New Zealand refrigerant handling code of practice.

Charging Method: Subcooling and Superheat

Parameters:

LLT = Liquid Line Temperature

SLT = Suction Line Temperature

SCT = Saturated Condensing Temperature

SST = Saturated Suction Temperature

Cooling and Heating Operation:

Adjust the refrigerant charge to obtain the correct super heat and sub-cool for optimal performance as follows:

1. Ensure that air filters are fitted and total system airflows are achieved. (Air filters are not supplied with the unit, it is the responsibility of the installing contractor to provide and fit adequate return air and fresh air filters).
2. Connect service gauges to the shut off valves.
3. Start the unit in cool mode ensuring that the compressor is in operation before taking service gauges reading. Allow the system to stabilise for next 15 - 30 minutes before recording.
4. Record the discharge pressure, suction pressure, liquid line temperature and suction line temperature for all the refrigeration circuits.

Liquid Line Temperature (LLT) = ____°C

Suction Line Temperature (SLT) = ____ °C

Installation and Commissioning Guide

Advance Outdoor Units

NOTES

• Accurate pressure and temperature measuring tools should be used to achieve satisfactory results.
• The sensors of thermocouple must be in good contact with the area being measured and must be insulated in order to obtain correct reading.

Checking for Subcooling

1. From the Pressure / Temperature Chart, record the corresponding Saturated Condensing Temperature (SCT) at the given discharge pressure.
2. Calculate the system subcooling using the formula below:

Subcooling = SCT - LLT

1. If subcooling is within the range (see charging table), there is no need to add/remove refrigerant.

2. If subcooling is lower than minimum, the system is undercharged, it is necessary to add refrigerant.

3. If subcooling is higher than maximum, the system is overcharged, it is necessary to remove refrigerant.

Allow the systems to stabilise (15 - 30 mins) and repeat the steps 1-3 until subcooling falls within the range specified in the Subcooling/Superheat Table below.

Installation and Commissioning Guide

Advance Outdoor Units

Checking for Superheat

Maintaining the correct superheat is important for ensuring the evaporator is achieving maximum capacity and avoiding excessive liquid refrigerant returning to the compressor.

1. From the Pressure/Temperature Chart, record the corresponding Saturated Suction Temperature (SST) at the given suction pressure.
2. Calculate the system super heat using the formula below:

Superheat = SLT -SST

1. If superheat is within the range (see charging table), there is no need to add/remove refrigerant.

2. If superheat is lower than minimum, it means that liquid refrigerant may be returning to compressor. It is necessary to remove refrigerant or check EEV settings.

3. If superheat is higher than maximum, it means that refrigeration capability of evaporator is not fully maximised. It is necessary to add refrigerant charge or check EEV settings.

Allow the systems to stabilise (15 - 30 mins) and repeat the steps 1-3 until superheat falls within the range specified in the table below.

Subcooling/Superheat Table
Cooling Heating
Subcooling Superheat Subcooling Superheat
4 - 8 2 - 8 10	- 14 2 - 8

NOTES

The above subcooling and superheat recommendations are based on the following rated conditions:

• Cooling: 35 °C DB outdoor, air entering indoor at 27°C DB / 19°C WB.
- Heating: 7 ^ C DB / 6 ^ C WB outdoor, air entering indoor at 20 ^ C DB Nominal indoor airflow.
