[1] Cautions for service (1) Perform service after recovering the refrigerant left in unit completely. (2) Do not release refrigerant in the air. (3) After completing service, charge the cycle with specified amount of refrigerant. (4) If moisture or foreign matter might have entered the refrigerant piping during service, ensure to remove them. [2] Additional refrigerant charge When charging directly from cylinder (1) Check that cylinder for R410A on the market is a syphon type.
Page 4
Cautions for refrigerant piping work New refrigerant R410A is adopted for replacement inverter series. Although the refrigerant piping work for R410A is same as for R22, exclusive tools are necessary so as not to mix with different kind of refrigerant. Furthermore as the working pressure of R410A is 1.6 times higher than that of R22, their sizes of flared sections and flare nuts are different.
OVERVIEW OF UNITS 2-1. Auxiliary HEATING ON/OFF CONTROL SET-UP (1) Auxiliary heating operation controls another heat source that depends on the main system's operations, which means the interlock operation shown in "b)" will be possible. Indoor unit must be R410A UL model for this function to operate. b) Different Indoor unit applications that can be applied: (2) Outdoor unit DIPSW5-4 for auxiliary heating control: Set DIPSW5-4 when power is turned off at unit.

ELECTRICAL WIRING This chapter provides an introduction to electrical wiring for MULTI-S series, together with notes concerning power wiring, wir- ing for control (transmission wires and remote controller wires), and the frequency converter. 9-1. OVERVIEW OF POWER WIRING Use a separate power supply for the outdoor unit and indoor unit. Bear in mind ambient conditions (ambient temperature, direct sunlight, rain water, etc.) when proceeding with the wiring and connections.

9-5. SYSTEM SWITCH SETTING In order to identify the destinations of signals to the outdoor units, indoor units, and remote controller of MULTI-S series, each microprocessor must be assigned an identification number (address). The addresses of outdoor units, indoor units, and remote controller must be set using their settings switches.

9-7. METHOD FOR OBTAINING ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS WHEN A CAPACITY AGREEMENT IS TO BE SIGNED WITH AN ELECTRIC POWER COMPANY The electrical characteristics of connected indoor unit system for air conditioning systems, including MULTI-S series, depend on the arrangement of the indoor and outdoor units. First read the data on the selected indoor and outdoor units and then use the following formulas to calculate the electrical characteristics before applying for a capacity agreement with the local electric power company.

10-2. PRECAUTIONS AGAINST REFRIGERANT LEAKAGE 10-2-1. Introduction R410A refrigerant of this air conditioner is non-toxic and non-flammable but leaking of large amount from an indoor unit into the room where the unit is installed may be deleterious. To prevent possible injury, the rooms should be large enough to keep the R410A concentration specified by ISO 5149-1 as follows.
