When the outdoor unit is installed in a position exposed
to strong wind (like seasonal winds with low air tempera-
ture in winter), baffle plates must be installed in front of
the outdoor unit. (Fig. 5f)
This unit is designed so that the fan of the outdoor unit
runs at low speed when the air conditioner is operated at
low outdoor air temperatures. When the outdoor unit is
exposed to strong wind, the system pressure drops
because of the freeze protector.

5-1. Use of the Flaring Method
Many of the conventional split system air conditioners
employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes
which run between indoor and outdoor units. In this
method, the copper tubes are flared at each end and
connected with flare nuts.
5-2. Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a
tube cutter. It is recommended to cut approx. 12" to
20" (30 to 50 cm) longer than the tubing length you
estimate.
Fig. 47
Copper
tubing
(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with a
tube reamer or file. This process is important and
should be done carefully to make a good flare.
(Fig. 47)
Reamer
NOTE
When reaming, hold the tube end downward and be
sure that no copper scraps fall into the tube. (Fig. 48)

5-3. Caution before Connecting Tubes Tightly
Flare tool
a) Be sure to apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape
to prevent dust or water from getting into the tubes
before they are used.
Fig. 49b
b) Be sure to apply refrigerant lubricant to the match-
ing surfaces of the flare and union before connect-
ing them together. This is effective for reducing gas
leaks. (Fig. 50)

5-5. Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing
IMPORTANT
Fig. 53
To prevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping of con-
densation, both tubes must be well insulated with a
proper insulation material. (Fig. 53)
The thickness of the insulation should be a minimum 5/16"
(8 mm). (Fig. 54)

Fig. 54
After a tube has been insulat-
ed, never try to bend it into a
narrow curve, as this may
cause the tube to break or
crack.
CAUTION
Clamp
Insulated tubes
(1) At this time, the 2 refrigerant tubes (and electrical wire
if local codes permit) should be taped together with
armoring tape. The drain hose may also be included
and taped together as 1 bundle with the tubing.
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the outdoor
unit to the top of the tubing where it enters the wall. As
you wrap the tubing, overlap half of each previous tape
turn. (Fig. 55)
Fig. 55
(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to wall, using 1 clamp approx.
every 47" (120 cm).
Apply putty here
NOTE
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly, since this will
decrease the heat insulation effect. Also, be sure the con-
densation drain hose splits away from the bundle and drips
clear of the unit and the tubing.
Tubing
5-7. Finishing the Installation
Fig. 56
After finishing insulating and taping over the tubing, use
sealing putty to seal off the hole in the wall to prevent rain
and draft from entering. (Fig. 56)

6. Air Purging
Indoor unit
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system
have undesirable effects as indicated below. Therefore,
they must be purged completely.
G pressure in the system rises
G operating current rises
G cooling (or heating) efficiency drops
G moisture in the air may freeze and block capillary tubing
Outdoor unit
G water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant
system
I Air Purging with a Vacuum Pump (for Test Run)
(1) Check that each tube (both narrow and wide tubes)
between the indoor and outdoor units have been
properly connected and all wiring for the test run
has been completed. Note that both narrow and
wide tube service valves on the outdoor unit are
kept closed at this stage.
(2) Using an adjustable wrench or box wrench, remove
the valve caps from the service valve on both nar-
row and wide tubes.
Manifold valve
(Exclusively for R410A)
(3) Connect a vacuum pump and a manifold valve (with
pressure gauges) to the service port on the wide
tube service valve. (Fig. 57)
Lo
Hi
Pressure
gauge
The service port on the wide tube
service valve uses a Schrader core
valve to access the refrigerant sys-
tem. The valve core is similar to
those used in automobile tires.
Therefore, be sure to use a vacuum
hose connector which has a push-
pin inside.
CAUTION
Charging hose
(Exclusively for R410A)
Vacuum pump adapter

(with reverse flow prevention)
Vacuum pump
Be sure to use a manifold valve
for air purging. If it is not avail-
able, use a stop valve (field sup-
ply) for this purpose. The “Hi”
knob of the manifold valve must
always be kept closed.
CAUTION
Fig. 57
NOTE
To prevent other refrigerants from being mistakenly
charged to units which use R410A, the size of the
charge port on the service valve is different from the
one for other refrigerant types. For servicing such as
recharging, the specified charging hose, manifold and
vacuum pump adapter (with reverse flow prevention)
for R410A must be used.
(4) With the “Lo” knob of the manifold valve open, run
the vacuum pump. The operation time for the vacu-
um pump varies with tubing length and the capacity
of the pump. The following table shows the amount
of time for evacuation:
Table 7
Required time for evacuation when
100 liter/h vacuum pump is used
NOTE
If tubing length is
less than 33 ft. (10 m)
If tubing length is
more than 33 ft. (10 m)
The required time in Table 7 is calculated based on the
assumption that the ideal (or target) vacuum condition
is around 10 mmHg abs.
10 min. or more
15 min. or more

(5) With the vacuum pump still running, close the “Lo”
knob of the manifold valve. Then stop the vacuum
pump.
90° (1/4 turn)
Narrow tube
(6) With the accessory hex wrench, turn the valve stem
on the narrow tube service valve counter-clockwise
by 90 degrees (1/4 turn) for 10 seconds, and then
turn the stem clockwise to close it again. (Fig. 58)
Hex wrench
Wide tube
Be sure to completely insert
CAUTION
the hex wrench before
attempting to turn the valve.
Valve cap
Vacuum hose to manifold valve
(7) Leak test all joints at the tubing (both indoor and out-
doors) with soapy water. Bubbles indicate a leak. Tight-
en the joint more when leaks, then check if there is no
leak. Be sure to wipe off the soap with a clean cloth.
Fig. 58
(8) With the hex wrench, turn the wide tube service
valve stem counter-clockwise to fully open the valve.
(9) Turn the narrow tube service valve stem counter-
clockwise to fully open the valve.
(10) Loosen the vacuum hose connected to the wide
tube service port slightly to release the pressure.
Then, remove the hose.
This may cause the refriger-
ant gas to leak. In order to
avoid this, take off the hose
quickly.
CAUTION
(11) Fasten the valve cap on the wide tube service port
securely with an adjustable wrench or box wrench.
Next, mount the valve cap on the service valve and
tighten it to 170 lbs·in (200 kgf·cm) with a torque
wrench. This process is very important to prevent
gas from leaking from the system.
(12) Test run the air conditioner. (See next page.)
(13) While the air conditioner is running, apply liquid
soap to check for any gas leaks around the service
valves or caps.
(14) If there is no leakage, stop the air conditioner.
(15) Wipe off the soap on the tubing.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump and the
air conditioner is ready for actual operation.

valve clockwise all the way to close the service
valve. (Be sure to confirm that the wide tube service
valve is fully open.)
Pump down means collecting all refrigerant gas in the
system back into the outdoor unit without losing any of
the gas. Pump down is used when the unit is to be
moved or before servicing the refrigerant circuit.
(3) Press the operation button and start cooling oper-
ation.
Pump Down Procedure
Be sure to carry out pump down with the unit in
cooling mode.
(4) When the low pressure gauge reading falls to 14.2 to
7.1 psi (1 to 0.5 kg/cm2), fully close the wide tube
valve stem. Then quickly stop the unit.
(1) Connect the Lo side charging hose of the manifold
valve to the service port on the wide tube service
valve.
(5) Disconnect all gauges and hoses, and replace the
valve caps as they were before.
