Please Read Before Starting

This air conditioning system meets strict safety and operat- ing standards. As the installer or service person, it is an important part of your job to install or service the system so it operates safely and efficiently. Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning. Follow each installation or repair step exactly as shown. Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes. This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in personal injury or product or property damage. In Case of Improper Installation When Wiring ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUS SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH. ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TO WIRE THIS SYSTEM. E • Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tubing are completed or reconnected and checked. • Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in this sys- tem. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram and these instructions when wiring. Improper connections and inad- equate grounding can cause accidental injury or death. • When Installing… …In a Room Properly insulate any tubing run inside a room to preven “sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage to walls and floors. t …In Moist or Uneven Locations … …In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems) Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higher than drifting snow. Provide snow vents. • • Keep all tubing runs as short as possible. • Use the flare method for connecting tubing. • Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of the flare and union tubes before connecting them, then tighten the nut with a torque wrench for a leak-free con- nection. • Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run. When Servicing • • Keep your fingers and clothing away from any moving parts. • • • Confirm after installation that no refrigerant gas is leak- ing. If the gas comes in contact with a burning stove, gas water heater, electric room heater or other heat source, it can cause the generation of poisonous gas. IMPORTANT! For safe installation and trouble-free operation, you must: Pay close attention to all warning and caution notices given in this manual. This symbol refers to a hazard or unsafe practice which can result in severe personal injury or death. WARNING CAUTION If Necessary, Get Help These instructions are all you need for most installation sites and maintenance conditions. If you require help for a special problem, contact our sales/service outlet or your certified dealer for additional instructions. The manufacturer shall in no way be responsible for improper installation or maintenance service, including fail- ure to follow the instructions in this document. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS WARNING Ground the unit following local electrical codes. Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause over- heating at connection points and a possible fire hazard. When Transporting Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor and outdoor units. Get a partner to help, and bend your knees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharp edges or thin aluminum fins on the air conditioner can cut your fingers. Use a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to provide a solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This prevents water damage and abnormal vibration. In an Area with High Winds Securely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and a metal frame. Provide a suitable air baffle. When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing Ventilate the room well, in the event that is refrigerant gas leaks during the installation. Be careful not to allow contact of the refrigerant gas with a flame as this will cause the generation of poisonous gas. Turn the power OFF at the main power box (mains) before opening the unit to check or repair electrical parts and wiring. Clean up the site after you finish, remembering to check that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have been left inside the unit being serviced. CAUTION Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testing the refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, on contact with fire or heat, can produce dangerously toxic gas. • • • • • i

Check of Density Limit

The room in which the air conditioner is to be installed requires a design that in the event of refrig- erant gas leaking out, its density will not exceed a set limit. The refrigerant (R410A), which is used in the aircondition- er, is safe, without the toxicity or combustibility of ammonia, and is not restricted by laws imposed to protect the ozone layer. However, since it contains more than air, it poses the risk of suffocation if its density should rise excessively. Suf- focation from leakage of refrigerant is almost non-existent. With the recent increase in the number of high density buildings, however, the installation of multi air conditioner systems is on the increase because of the need for effec- tive use off loor space, individual control, energy conserva- tion by curtailing heat and carrying power, etc. Most importantly, the multi air conditioner system is able to replenish a large amount of refrigerant compared to conventional individual air conditioners. If a single unit of the multi air conditioner system is to be installed in a small room, select a suitable model and installation pro- cedure so that if the refrigerant accidentally leaks out, its density does not reach the limit (and in the event of an emergency, measures can be made before injury can occur). ASHRAE and the International Mechanical Code of the ICC as well as CSA provide guidance and define safe- guards related to the use of refrigerants, all of which define a Refrigerant Concentration Level (RCL) of 25 pounds per 1,000 cubic feet for R410A refrigerant. For additional guidance and precautions related to refrigerant safety, please refer to the following documents: International Mechanical Code 2009 (IMC-2009) (or more recently revised) ASHRAE 15 ASHRAE 34 ii

The outdoor units all contain inverter compressors, and the system does not utilize the sub units that were used in earlier systems. The outdoor unit where the unit No. is set to “1” includes the CCU (command controller unit) functions that are used to control the entire system. As a result, the system will not operate if no outdoor unit has been set as unit No. “1.” Required settings for Test Run Outdoor unit No. 2 Unit No. 2 Unit No. 1 1 ~ 3 units 1 ~ 40 units System 1 ~ 30 This system can be expanded to connect a maximum of 3 outdoor units. (The max. system capacity shall be within 24 Ton.) The CCU functions are disabled at all units except the unit that is set as unit No. 1. Therefore no problems will result even if the system address, No. of indoor units, and No. of outdoor units settings are made at the other units. However, making these settings may be convenient for manual backup operation, as it eliminates the necessity of making the settings again if unit No. 1 fails. 1 - 2 1.

(2) Delayed start for each system

* For information concerning EEPROM settings, refer to the field application functions. (1) (2) Stopping individual outdoor units The last unit to stop operating is the outdoor unit that contains the inverter compressor with the shortest amount of operating time. In cooling mode, all inverter compressors in the outdoor units are designed to operate simultaneously Therefore, all the outdoor units will stop at a time when any one unit is stopped. In heating mode, the out door unit which has the inverter compressor with the shortest amount of operating time continues to run and rest of the other outdoor units may be stopped. . - (1) Delayed start of outdoor units in the same system If it is necessary to operate the compressors simultaneously at multiple outdoor units, each outdoor unit will start, beginning with unit No. 1, after a delay of a number of seconds equivalent to the outdoor unit address. The units do not start simultaneously. This is in order to reduce the load on the power receiving equipment. Starts after 1 second Starts after 2 seconds 2-1. Outdoor Unit Operating Rules 2-2. Delayed Start of Outdoor Units 2-3. Outdoor Unit Stop Rules Because in this system all outdoor units contain an inverter compressor, ordinarily there is no absolute order of priority for compressor operation. Therefore there is no order of priority for the outdoor units. However, it is possible to operate the outdoor units in sequence, beginning with unit No. 1, by using the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to change the outdoor unit EEPROM settings. * For information concerning EEPROM settings, refer to the field application functions. address 1 address 2 Outdoor unit Outdoor unit At the time of factory shipment, delayed start for each system is not set to occur. Therefore when systems are linked and multiple systems are selected for start simultaneously by the central control device, all systems will begin operating simultaneously. For this reason, a function is included to delay the start time for each system address when systems are linked and multiple systems are selected for start by the central control device. In order to enable this delay time, it must be set in the EEPROM for each system. Those systems where this setting has been made will start after a delay according to their system addresses. Simultaneous stop of multiple outdoor units When all outdoor units, or multiple outdoor units, must stop, the units stop at the same time. However, depend- ing on the communications timing, a difference of approximately 10 seconds may occur. 1 - 3 W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 2. Selecting an Outdoor Unit for Operation

Compressor Selection Rules In cooling mode, all inverter compressors in the outdoor units are designed to operate simultaneously. All the inverter compressors will stop at a time when the outdoor is stopped accordingly. Constant-speed compressors run in order of the shortest amount of operating time. In heating mode, the inverter compressor with the shortest amount of operating time runs at first followed by the compressors in order of the shortest amount of operating time including inverter units. Suppose the following tentative system. All the inverter compressors are firstly selected simultaneously.

(2) The inverter frequency during operation may be lower than the frequency listed above due to overload current

protection control. * If Quiet mode is selected, the inverter may stabilize at a frequency lower than those stated above. For information about Quiet mode, refer to the field application functions. * If the Power Demand Mode is selected, the inverter may stabilize at a frequency lower than those stated above. Refer to the Field Application Function for the detail. (1) The below mentioned Roadmap Control are performed according to the pressure sensor on the outdoor unit and the 2 temperature sensors attached to the indoor unit heat exchanger coil. , * With the roadmap control in heating mode, the pressure detected by the pressure sensor at high pressure side is converted to the saturation temperature. This converted saturation temperature is called the “High Pressure Saturated Temperature”. (2) (3) The evaporation temperature control and the temperature used to determine the area (A, AB, B, C) for the con- densation control shown in the figure on the next page, may vary depending on the relationships among factors including the difference between the room temperature setting and the air intake temperature (=air intake tem- perature difference) and the difference between the air discharge temperature setting and the air discharge temperature (=air discharge temperature difference). (4) Definitions of evaporation temperature and condensation temperature Lowest heat exchanger temperature (E1, E3) at any indoor unit * E3 temperature in heating mode is not used for the condensation temperature detection, because it may indi- cate the temperature of superheated gas. 3-3. Compressor Capacity Control The compressor operating conditions vary depending on the indoor unit operating conditions and the effects of indoor heat load, outdoor temperature and other factors. Unit No. 1 (CCU) calculates the required capacity accord- ing to these operating conditions, and allocates the capacity requirement among the outdoor units, according to the compressor start/stop rules. Fine adjustments to system capacity control are made by the inverter compressors. (Depending on the conditions, all inverter compressors may be operating for fine adjustment.) 3-4. Inverter Compressor Capacity Control The inverter compressor has a center limit value and upper limit value for the operating frequency. These limits are set for each outdoor unit capacity. 3-5. Forced Compressor Stop 3-6. Roadmap Control Once a compressor stops, it will not start for a period of 3 minutes (3-minute forced OFF). However, this does not apply when the compressor was forced to stop as the result of a control operation during the special controls (start control, defrost control, refrigerant oil recovery control, etc.) which are described later. This control is performed every 15 seconds. Evaporation temperature (Te): Condensation temperature (Tc): Highest temperature among the outdoor unit pressure sensor temperature and the heat exchanger temperatures (E1) at all indoor units where the heating thermostat is ON. Ordinarily, this is the outdoor unit pressure sensor temperature. (If multiple outdoor units are connected, this is the highest outdoor unit pressure sensor temperature. ) 1 - 5 W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 3. Compressor Control

Areas B and C are assumed to be area A for control purposes, instead. By this reason, the compressor continues its operation regardless of the low evaporation temperature (This is used for additional charging of refrigerant, test run checking etc.) Vapor may be discharged if the test run continues for a long time. However, this does not indicate problems. If the thermostat turns OFF while Te is within area C, the next time the compressor starts it may restart from a lower capacity. For 6 minutes after the compressors start, area C is considered to be area B for control purposes. During special control, control of the compressor capacity according to Te is not performed. 1 - 6 3. Compressor Control W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions

* Depending on the maximum requirement level of the indoor unit, the judgment temperatures for each area may vary as shown in the figure (example). (1) For indoor units which are operating in Heating mode, if one unit is selected for a test run, the air intake tem- perature difference is ignored, however Tc control is performed according to the figure above in order to pre- vent excessive load. (This is used for test run checks, etc.) (2) Even within the same area, the compressor capacity varies depending on the refrigerant temperature. (3) (4) (1) During operation when only a single outdoor unit is installed, the air discharge temperature level is determined (the highest value is used), and the compressor capacity is limited, by using the air discharge temperature of the operating compressor (as shown in the tables below).

Protection control consists of 2 types of protection: discharge temperature protection and current protection. The limit values from this protection control are incorporated into the output compressor capacity increase/decrease values that were calculated from control based on the temperature at the indoor unit heat exchanger coil (roadmap control). In some cases, the control shown below may stop the compressor, issue a warning, or reduce the compressor capacity. * Discharge Temperature Protection Air discharge temp. level 212 ~ Less than 217 208 ~ Less than 212 Permit horsepower increase (slowly) 3-6-3.

This control is intended to changeover the 4-way valve of outdoor unit. When the unit has been stopped for long period, and if refrigerant has accumulated somewhere in the tubing, recovery of the refrigerant is performed.

Outdoor unit cycle defrost Outdoor unit cycle defrost is performed in systems where 2 outdoor units are connected to the refrigerant system. Description of outdoor unit cycle defrost With this defrost method, when 1 outdoor unit operates in defrost mode (heat exchanger operating as a con- denser), another outdoor unit operates as an evaporator in the same way as in ordinary heating mode. In this way, the other outdoor unit is heating the unit where defrost is occurring. When 1 outdoor unit completes defrost, the other outdoor unit performs defrost in the same way. Because the amount of time that the unit operates as an evaporator is very short, there is little danger of frost forming again quickly. Rather, because the heat source is very powerful, it is possible to shorten the defrost operating time. Defrost sequence Outdoor unit cycle defrost is always completed in 2 defrost operations.

30 seconds after the oil level changes from 2 to 1, the recovery valves turn ON.

However, if the oil level becomes 2, this control is stopped. * If the low oil level continues, that outdoor unit (oil-receiving outdoor unit) receives a supply of oil from operating outdoor units where the oil level is not low (oil-supply outdoor units). (1) Control at the oil-supply outdoor unit begins 3 minutes after the oil level at the outdoor unit dose not become 2. Oil supply is performed for a maximum of 5 minutes from each unit. (2) When oil supply is ended, oil supply from that outdoor unit will not occur again for a period of [(No. of outdoor units minus1) x 5 minutes]. In addition, oil supply is ended if the oil-receiving outdoor unit oil level changes to 2, or if the oil-supply outdoor unit oil level becomes low.

Oil level Oil level The compressor oil is short against the required oil level sufficient for normal operation. The compressor contains sufficient oil but there is a possibility of shortage against the required oil level. The compressor contains oil more than the oil level which is necessary and sufficient for normal operation. There is no problem. Confirm that oil is returned after performing the oil control operation. Confirm that oil level is recovered to the required level after performing the oil recovery control between systems. At the time immediately after the oil level changes from 2 to 1, there is a specified amount of oil in the compressor. Namely, soon after the oil level is changed to 1, the oil in the compressor is not empty. If the oil level “0” indication continues for more than 5 to 10 minutes, it seems short of oil in the system. Check for any oil leakage as well as the refrigerant tubing. 5-1-2. Oil level detection Excess oil in the compressor is sent by bypass via a capillary tube to the low-pressure circuit. The temperature detected by a temperature sensor is used to determine whether it is oil (warm) or refrigerant (cold). 5-1-3.

(4) Control during normal operation

(A) Cooling operation (B) Mixed cooling/heating operation The main purpose of this valve is to detect the flow of refrigerant (refrigerant volume) on the indoor-unit side when the outdoor unit heat exchanger is functioning as an evaporator. When the valve determines that there are signs of excess refrigerant, refrigerant is recovered at the receiver tank. This valve is ON during heating operation and when the outdoor unit heat exchanger is functioning as an evapora- tor during mixed heating/cooling operation. It also turns ON in order to recover refrigerant at the outdoor unit after heating operation is stopped. (1) (2) (3) (A) Heating operation (4) This valve turns OFF when an abnormal drop in discharge gas temperature is detected. (5) This valve turns OFF when a drop in the detected receiver tank temperature contin- ues for a set length of time, and when liquid back-flow is judged to be occurring. Hp Lp 6-1. Refrigerant Control Valve [RCV] The main purpose of this valve is to detect the flow of refrigerant (refrigerant volume) on the indoor-unit side when the outdoor unit heat exchanger is functioning as a condenser. When the valve determines that there are signs of a low refrigerant level, refrigerant is supplied from the receiver tank to the system. The OFF conditions take priority over the ON conditions for this valve. This valve is OFF when the outdoor unit is stopped. This valve is ON when special control is in progress. This valve turns ON when symptoms of insufficient refrigerant gas occur at an indoor unit. This valve turns ON when the outdoor air temperature is 59°F or below. (Under these conditions the high pressure is low and refrigerant flow becomes poor.) This valve turns OFF when symptoms of refrigerant overcharge are detected at the outdoor unit. The RCV turns ON at stopped outdoor units when the heat exchanger at anoth- er outdoor unit is functioning as a condenser. 6-2. Refrigerant Balance Valve [RBV] – Gas Purge Valve * This valve is never turned ON at the same time with the RCV. This valve turns ON once after the outdoor unit starts. This valve turns ON for 30 – 50 seconds after the outdoor unit stops, and then turns OFF. The OFF conditions take priority over the ON conditions for this valve. This valve is ON during heating operation and when it turns ON for the purpose of recovering refrigerant in the outdoor unit at the end of the heating operation. After the valve turns from ON to OFF, it will not turn ON again for 15 minutes. This valve turns ON when poor refrigerant flow at an indoor unit is detected, and when symptoms of overcharge are detected, if the heat exchanger at the outdoor unit is functioning as an evaporator. 1 - 15 W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 6.

Heat exchanger 2 Operation of Electronic Thermostatic Expansion Valve during normal unit operation If any one compressor in the outdoor unit is operating, the outdoor heat exchanger coil is used. In cooling operation, all the inverter compressors are designed to operate, therefore, all the outdoor heat exchangers in the outdoor units will be used. SH control controls the difference between the liquid temperature and gas temperature to 2°F ~ 10°F. During heating mode SH operation in the heat exchanger 2 side, in order to prevent a liquid-back or high load operation from occurring a control may be implemented so that refrigerant may not flow intentionally to the heat exchanger. 1 - 17 W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 7. Outdoor Unit Electronic Thermostatic Expansion Valves [MOV1, MOV2 & MOV4]

7-4. SC Circuit Electronic Control Valve [MOV4]

(1) SC Control (Cooling Mode only During cooling operation, the liquid refrigerant which condenses at the outdoor unit heat exchanger flows into the receiver tank, and SC (sub-cool = supercooling) approaches 0°F. When SC is small and the length of the tubing connecting the indoor and outdoor units is long, the refrigerant flow in the indoor unit will be reduced sig- nificantly. To prevent this trouble from occurring, MOV4 operates so as to increase supercooling in the double tube coil near the outlet of the outdoor unit. MOV4 controls refrigerant so that it will not flow back to the compressor in the liquid state with a suction tem- perature sensor near the accumulator and a low pressure sensor. (2) Operation when discharge temperature is high When the discharge temperature increases, the SC circuit electronic thermostatic expansion valve opens to 480 pulses to cool down the compressor. This operation takes priority over operation intended to increase SC. It is performed at top priority in all operating modes. In addition, the valve opening adjustment will be made when the discharge temperature falls. Gas refrigerant returns to the accumulator. Liquid refrigerant (large SC) Liquid refrigerant (SC = 0°F) Refrigerant on the outer side evaporates, cooling the liquid refrigerant on the inner side. Electronic control valve 4 (expansion valve) controls the flow. Does not fully evaporate, resulting in liquid back-up. Liquid refrigerant returns to the accumulator.

(1) When all indoor units are operating in cooling mode The fan mode may be decreased when symptoms of insufficient refrigerant gas are detected at an indoor unit. (2) When all indoor units are operating in heating mode The fan mode may be increased when the outdoor liquid temperature drops to 44°F or below. 8-5. Snow Removal Control When the outdoor air temperature is 50°F or below, the fan operates for 30 seconds every 2 hours in fan mode 8, even when the outdoor unit is stopped or the heat exchanger is not in use. This control is intended to prevent snow from accumulating on stopped fans. (Because the outdoor air temperature cannot be accurately detected when the unit is stopped, a higher outdoor air temperature is used for the control condition, in order to ensure correct operation.) If the fan mode becomes 0 during cooling operation, the fan mode is changed to 1. This control is predictive control. Use a snowfall sensor as necessary according to the installation conditions. 8-6.

The inverter current includes a primary current and secondary current. The alarm judgment utilizes both cur- rents. Generally, the secondary current is larger that the primary current. Alarm Description P22 Occurs when the fan motor detects over current, or when the motor is locked and does not turn. Alarm Description P16 P26 P29 H31 Occurs under the same conditions as P16 when the inverter compressor is operating at or above 80 Hz. Occurs when missing phase or overcurrent (48 A) is detected at inverter compressor start. (the alarm at frequencies below 25 Hz) Occurs when HIC detects overcurrent (75 A), or when an abnormal high temperature (302°F) is reached.

If the inverter compressor operating frequency is low, the current value is also low. Therefore this alarm is detected only when the compressor is stopped. The operating current of the constant-speed compressors is always higher than 1.5 A. Therefore, this alarm occurs as the result of an open circuit or failure. 1 - 26 14.

High-pressure sensor failure

This system contains 2 types of pressure sensors: a high-pressure sensor and a low-pressure sensor. Alarms are emitted when the high-pressure sensor becomes an electrical open-circuit or a short-circuit condi- tions, and a broken wiring, short-circuit or poor connection to the PCB in the high-pressure sensor circuit. Low-pressure sensor failure Alarms are emitted when the low-pressure sensor becomes an electrical open-circuit or a short-circuit condi- tions, and a broken wiring, short-circuit or poor connection to the PCB in the low-pressure sensor circuit.

(B) At the S010 switch on the PCB of the failed outdoor unit, turn ON the switch for the compressor to dis able, and turn ON the “backup” switch. Backup Operation 16-1. Automatic Backup Operation This system includes a function for automatic backup operation. An alarm is also displayed to inform the operator that a failure has occurred. (1) Alarms that result in automatic backup operation When compressor trouble or fan motor trouble makes emergency continued operation impossible, automatic backup operation mode is engaged. Automatic backup mode is not engaged in cases of communications alarms, automatic reset alarms, and other instances when emergency operation is possible by pressing the remote controller buttons or changing other conditions. The alarms that result in automatic backup mode are P16, P22, P26, P29, H11, H12, and H31. (2) Start of automatic backup operation If the above alarms occur, the alarm is displayed on the control device. Pressing the control device button again starts automatic backup mode. (3) Operation [1] When 1 outdoor unit is installed When 1 compressor has failed, backup operation is possible using the other compressors (only in the 09663 model (8 Ton)). However, operation does not occur when the outdoor fan is unable to operate as a result of alarm P22. [2] When multiple outdoor units are installed When automatic backup mode is engaged, the outdoor unit where the above alarm occurred stops operating. However, if one or more of the compressors is able to operate, then this outdoor unit operates only when the operation of all outdoor units is required for special control (such as 4-way valve adjustment) or other system purposes. (4) Alarm display If a wired remote controller is present, display blinks during operation. (5) Canceling automatic backup operation Repair the outdoor unit where the failure occurred. When repairs are completed, reset the power on outdoor unit No.1. After automatic backup mode has been engaged, it will not be canceled automatically when the repair of the failed outdoor unit is completed. Automatic backup mode will be canceled only when the power on outdoor unit No.1 is reset. Therefore, after repair work is completed, be sure to check whether or not automatic backup mode has been canceled. How to check: [1] Use test run or other means to verify that all outdoor units operate continuously. [2] If a wired remote controller is present, check that display has disappeared. 16-2. Manual Backup If an alarm that does not result in automatic backup occurs frequently, possible causes include failure (such as refrigerant leakage) of a functional part at an outdoor unit other than the unit where the alarm occurs. In this case, because the outdoor unit service valve must be closed, backup operation must be performed manually. (1) Backup operation procedure [1] Disconnecting the failed outdoor unit 1 - 28 16.

18-1. Snowfall Sensor Functions: Outdoor EEPROM 04

* If the snowfall sensor is used, then depending on the circumstances it is necessary to make the correct setting at all outdoor units in the system. * If “control is not performed” is set, control by the above signal is ignored. This setting is used in order to conserve energy at outdoor units that include a snowfall-protection hood. Recommended: If a low-speed fan mode is required (for all-year cooling or other reasons), install a snowfall-pro- tection hood and set this setting to ON. [1] Outdoor units where “sensor input present” is set send the snowfall sensor input information every 10 min- utes to all linked systems if the system wiring is linked. [2] At systems where “control is performed” is set, the above information is used to control operation of the out door fan. - [3] At systems where “control is not performed” is set, the snowfall sensor input and above information ignored, and the outdoor fan does not operate. [4] 18-2. Function for Automatic Judgment of Insufficient Refrigerant Gas and Overcharg e Short-circuit the CHECK pin on the No. 1 outdoor for 4 seconds or longer to engage this mode. (The LED on the outdoor unit PCB begins blinking.) After judgment mode starts, judgment occurs when all outdoor units in the system have been operating contin- uously for 30 minutes or longer. 0 1 2 3 A unit identified as having a snowfall sensor attached will periodically send a signal indicating the snowfall sensor input status to all outdoor units in the same system (or all wired outdoor units in the case of linked systems). It is therefore unnecessary to install and wire multiple snowfall sensors. Sensor input not present. Control is performed. (Setting at time of factory shipment) Sensor input present. Control is performed. Sensor input not present. Control is not performed. Sensor input present. Control is not performed. Setting Operation (1) Snow fall sensor settings (2) Control operation In case of W-2WAY ECO-i system, control can be performed when snowfall sensor input is connected to any outdoor unit. Snowfall sensor input information is detected once every 10 minutes. Therefore, the outdoor fan may continue operating for up to 10 minutes even when there is no snowfall sensor input. In addition, the outdoor fan may remain stopped for up to 10 minutes when snowfall sensor input is present. This system includes a simple function for judging the level of refrigerant. However, be aware that false judgments may occur if the control elements of the outdoor unit or indoor unit fail. (1) Starting refrigerant level judgment mode (2) Conditions for refrigerant level judgment * Refrigerant level judgment requires that all outdoor units operate continuously for 30 minutes or longer. This is in order to prevent incorrect adjustment of the refrigerant level based on false detection caused by refrigerant accumulation or recovery at stopped outdoor units, which is due to failures of functional elements. After the judgment is displayed, repeated judgment will occur under new operating conditions if all outdoor units continue operating. Therefore, the judgment display may change when later judgments occur. * Judgment mode is automatically canceled after 4 hours. 1 - 32 18. Other Functions W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions

When judgment mode is not engaged, the LED indicates the normal display (OFF), or else indicates alarms or

other information. [1] Judgment mode is canceled automatically when 4 hours have passed after it was started. [2] Forced cancel Short-circuit the CHECK pin while the judgment mode display is active in order to cancel judgment mode. Judgment in automatic judgment mode can be problematic in some cases. Therefore, the following guidelines are provided for general judgment of the refrigerant amount. - - - Judgment items Judgment mode Normal Insufficient gas Overcharge Judgment not possible Blinking ON Blinking OFF Blinking alternately Blinking ON OFF Blinking LED1 LED2 Recommended response Charge with refrigerant a little at a time. Recover refrigerant a little at a time. If the insufficient gas or overcharge judgment is not stable, then recover refrigerant a little at a time when the overcharge display appears. End refrigerant adjustment when the normal or insufficient gas display appears. (4) Canceling judgment mode When judgment mode is cancelled, the LED returns to the standard status display (OFF unless an alarm or other event has occurred). Automatic cancel General Guidelines for Insufficient Gas and Overcharge • Symptoms of insufficient gas • Symptoms of overcharge There is an indoor unit where the position of the electronic control valve is much higher (open by 300 pulses or more) than it was at start, and the difference [E3 – E1] at that indoor unit is large (30°F or more). There is an outdoor unit where the position of the electronic control valve is much higher (open by 300 pulses or more) than it was at start, and the difference [Liquid temp. – Gas temp.] at that outdoor unit is large (30°F or more). The high-pressure sensor temperature is 134°F or higher, and the difference [Pressure sensor temp. – Liquid temp.] at that outdoor unit is large (30°F or more). There is an indoor unit where the position of the electronic control valve is much higher (open by 300 pulses or more) than it was at start, and the difference [Pressure sensor temp. – E3] at that indoor unit is large (50°F or more). These are only guidelines, therefore the judgment may vary depending on the installation conditions, load char- acteristics, and other elements.

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 3. Discharging Compressor Oil Discharged oil can be used for checking the condition of the system. Based on the appearance and color of the discharged oil, a judgment can be made on whether the system is operating normally or not. 3-1. Discharging Oil from Oil Separator Recover the refrigerant from the outdoor unit following the procedure given in “5. Recovering Refrigerant.” Install hoses as indicated on the equipment and feed nitrogen gas gradually to provide pressure to the system from the low-pressure outlet and collect oil in a pan or container. (Fig. 8) The low-pressure outlet port is at the Lo side of the right side. A faulty outdoor unit may remain pressurized. The oil outlet port employs a Schrader-type push-to-release valve. Be careful to avoid accidental oil release when using the port. 3-2. Discharging Oil in Compressor Recover the refrigerant in the outdoor unit following the procedures in “5. Recovering Refrigerant.” Remove the compressor and discharge the oil in it. Refer to “10. Compressor” for detailed procedures. 3-3. Checking the Oil Acceptance/rejection criteria for the oil It is difficult to measure the total acid value in the field, therefore oil hue and odor are the rule of thumb. Checking for carbon deposits and abrasive metal powder can additionally be used to assess the system condition. CAUTION Judgment criteria for changing oil* Condition of refrigeration cycle Color Odor Total acid value Hue Normal Yellowish None 0.02 or less 3.5 or less 0.06 or over 4.0 or over Abnormal overheat- operation Brownish Smells somewhat (not as strong as below) Changing the oil and system cleaning with dry-cores are necessary.

4. Backup Operation W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures This system includes an emergency automatic backup function that allows the A/C to operate during the period after trouble occurs until repairs are made. However, during repair and at other times, use manual backup opera- tion. 4-1. Automatic Backup For details, refer to the control functions section. After the alarm details are sent to the control device, control for automatic backup operation begins when the ON/OFF button of the wired remote controller is pressed again (operation is started after the alarm is cleared). During this operating mode, “CHECK” flashes on the wired remote controller only to inform the user that operation is in backup mode. However this is not displayed on any other control devices. • In order to cancel automatic backup mode, it is necessary to reset the power on the control PCB of the outdoor unit where the outdoor unit No. setting (S007) on the control PCB is set to No. 1 (main unit). (It is also available by resetting power of all the outdoor units.) If the power is not reset on the control PCB of the No. 1 outdoor unit (main unit), backup mode operation will continue after the repairs are completed. Backup operation is intended as emergency operation until repairs are made. Have repairs made as soon as pos- sible. 4-2. Manual Backup This backup operation is the conventional method of backup operation. It involves disconnecting the failed outdoor unit from the system, and operating only the normal outdoor units. 4-2-1. Backup operation by disconnecting the outdoor unit (1) Changing the outdoor unit control PCB settings • Settings at No. 1 unit (main unit) • Settings at normal outdoor units other than the No. 1 unit No particular changes • Settings at the failed outdoor unit No particular changes However, close all service valves (gas tubes, liquid tube, and balance tube) at the failed outdoor unit, and dis- connect the wiring between the outdoor units. CAUTION Switch on outdoor unit control PCB Action System address (S003, S002) No change No. of indoor units (S005, S004) No change No. of outdoor units (S006) Subtract the number of failed units from the current setting.

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 4. Backup Operation If the No. 1 unit (main unit) has failed, a different outdoor unit must be set as the No. 1 unit (main unit). • Settings at the failed No. 1 outdoor unit – No particular changes – However, close all service valves (gas tube, liquid tube, balance tube) at the failed outdoor unit, and dis- connect the wiring between the outdoor units. • Settings at No. 1 unit (main unit) To this outdoor unit, connect the inter-unit communication line which was previously connected to the No. 1 unit (main unit). After recovery work is completed, wire the communication lines between indoor and outdoor units again. If it not finished yet, an alarm is emitted immediately. • Settings at other outdoor units No particular changes. (2) Adjusting the refrigerant for backup operation During backup operation, all of the service valves on the failed unit are closed. However, if a check of the backup operating conditions shows that the level of gas is low, recover the refrigerant from the failed outdoor unit. If the level of gas is too high, collect refrigerant at the failed outdoor unit. Recovering refrigerant With the normal outdoor units operating, monitor the operating condition and open/close the gas tube ser- vice valve on the failed outdoor unit where all the service valves were closed. In this way, recover refriger- ant from the failed outdoor unit in order to adjust the amount of refrigerant in the system. After adjusting the amount of refrigerant, close the gas tube valve at the failed outdoor unit. Collecting refrigerant in the failed outdoor unit • Short-circuit the vacuum application pin (CN102) on the control PCB of the failed outdoor unit where the service valves are closed, then turn the power ON. Also disconnect the wiring between the outdoor units. • With the normal outdoor units operating, monitor the operating condition and open/close the liquid tube ser- vice valve on the failed outdoor unit where all the service valves were closed. In this way, collect refrigerant in the failed outdoor unit in order to adjust the amount of refrigerant in the system. • After adjusting the amount of refrigerant, turn OFF the power at the failed outdoor unit, release the short- circuit at the vacuum application pin, and close the liquid tube valve at the failed outdoor unit. * Refrigerant recovery is not affected by the power status of the failed outdoor unit. However, collecting refrigerant in the failed outdoor unit is affected by whether the power at that outdoor unit can be turned ON. If the power cannot be turned ON, use a refrigerant recovery device and recover the refrigerant into a recovery cylinder in order to adjust the amount of refrigerant in the system. CAUTION Switch on outdoor unit control PCB Action System address (S003, S002) Make the same settings as on the failed No. 1 unit. No. of indoor units (S005, S004) Make the same settings as on the failed No. 1 unit. No. of outdoor units (S006) Subtract the number of failed units from the current setting. Setting outdoor unit No. (S007) Change to “1.”

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 5. Recovering Refrigerant The following equipment and tools are required: Jumper wire with clips, adjustable wrench, set of manifold gauge valves specially designed for refrigerant R410A only, vacuum pump, refrigerant recovery unit, pre-purged refrigerant cylinder for recovery, flathead screwdriver, and outdoor unit maintenance remote controller. 5-1. Refrigerant Recovery Procedures (from outdoor unit) (1) Turn off the power of the outdoor unit beforehand (at power mains). (2) Fully close each service valve on the liquid tube, gas tubes, and the balance tube of the outdoor unit. (3) Connect the outdoor unit’s high-pressure and low-pressure outlet ports with the Hi and Lo sides of the manifold gauge valves using hoses. (Fig. 9) The remaining refrigerant in the faulty outdoor unit may create internal pressure. Before connecting hoses, be sure to confirm that each of the manifold gauge valves is tightly closed. Note that the connection ports employ Schrader-type push-to-release valves. (4) Connect the manifold gauge valves, refrigerant recovery unit, and recovery cylinder using hoses. To avoid the entry of air into the refrigerant tubing, carry out this connection work carefully. (Fig. 9) For detailed procedures such as connecting the refrigerant recovery unit with the recovery cylinder and methods used for recovery, follow the specific instructions that came with the refrigerant recovery unit. (5) Locate the AP (Air Purge) pins on the control PCB in the faulty outdoor unit and short them using the clips of the jumper wire. Then restore electrical power to the outdoor unit. By short-circuiting the AP pins, each solenoid valve in the outdoor unit is forcibly opened as soon as power comes on, which releases all remaining refrigerant into the recovery cylinder. Since neglecting this procedure may leave some refrigerant in the system, it is important that you carry out this step. (6) Carry out refrigerant recovery. To determine the completion of refrigerant recovery, follow the instructions that came with the refrigerant recovery unit.

Refrigerant Recovery Procedures (Indoor Unit) The flowchart below shows the refrigerant recovery procedures you must follow when replacing or repairing the indoor unit due to trouble in the refrigerant circuit. Service work performed on indoor units is done simultaneously using the service ports at the liquid (narrow tube) side and the gas (wide tube) side ball valves. Refer to each section in the “Installation Instructions” on refrigerant charging, leak checking, and evacuation procedures. 5-2-1. Cooling operation (for all units) (1) If the remote controller (RCS-TM80BG) is used for maintenance of the outdoor unit Connect the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to the RC connector (CN006) (3P) (BLU) on any one of the outdoor unit control PCBs. Then start a test run of all units. (Press and hold the (CHECK) button for 4 seconds or longer.) Press the (MODE) button and change to cooling operation and ensure that the cooling is performed. Refer to the test run service manual for the detail of the outdoor maintenance remote controller operation. It may be possible to determine whether operation is cooling or heating by touching the gas tubing. Cooling : low temperature (68 °F or lower) Heating : high temperature (140 °F or higher) The gas tubing becomes hot (140 °F or higher) in heating mode. Be careful so as not to be burnt when touching the tubing. CAUTION START 5-2-1.

Leave the unit running for a while, and touch the gas tubing with fingers to determine that the unit is running in cooling mode. 5-2-2. Refrigerant recovery procedures (1) (using indoor unit ball valve) (1) If a ball valve with a service port has been provided in the indoor unit as shown in Fig. 10, follow the instructions given in (2) through (6) below. If the service port is instead located in the outdoor side, follow the instructions in “5-2-3. Refrigerant recovery procedures (2).” (2) After running the unit in Cooling mode for about 5 minutes as described in “5-2-1. Cooling operation (for all units),” fully close the liquid tube ball valve. (3) Run the unit in Cooling mode for 10 to 20 minutes more. (4) Fully close the gas tube ball valve, and stop the operation of all units. (5) Use hoses to connect the manifold gauge valves, refrigerant recovery unit, and refrigerant recovery cylinder with each other. (Fig. 10)Do each connection quickly to prevent air from entering the tubing. Remaining refrigerant may create internal pressure, therefore care should be taken when connecting the hoses. (6) Recover the remaining refrigerant from the indoor unit using the refrigerant recovery unit.

5. Recovering Refrigerant W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 5-2-3. Refrigerant recovery procedures (2): Indoor unit with no ball valve equipped Refrigerant in all indoor units and the refrigerant tubing circuit must be pumped into the outdoor unit. The maximum refrigerant storage capacity per a single outdoor unit is approx. 529 oz. Thus, in order to collect all refrigerant from the system, a separate refrigerant recovery unit is necessary. Follow these procedures to correctly perform pump down. Perform work correctly, according to the work procedures given below. Connect the manifold gauge to the high- and low-pressure outlet ports on the outdoor unit where pump down will be performed. Be sure that no air enters the tubing at this time. Follow the instructions in “5-2-1. Cooling operation (for all units)” and operate all units in Cooling mode for approximately 5 minutes. Then fully close the liquid tube valve on the outdoor unit where pump down will be performed. When the high-pressure gauge reaches 406.1 psi or higher, or the low-pressure gauge reaches 72.5 psi or below, at the outdoor unit where pump down is being performed, press the ON/OFF button on the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to stop operation at all units. Then immediately fully close the suction tube valve on the outdoor unit where pump down is being performed. * If the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller is unavailable, follow the procedure below to stop all of the units. Pull out the SCT connector (2P) (YEL) (CN231) on the outdoor unit control PCB of the unit where pump down is being performed. When the SCT connector is pulled out, immediately alarm F12 (sensor trouble) occurs and all outdoor units stop operating. Be sure that you do NOT grasp the lead wire when pulling out the con- nector. Removing any other connector may not cause the units to stop. Therefore be sure to pull out the SCT connector only. It is not necessary to recover the refrigerant from the balance tube. Therefore do not operate the balance tube valve. Turn off power to all equipment in the system. Then pull out the RC1 connector (4P) (BLU) (CN106) on the out- door control PCB in the outdoor unit for which pump down has been completed. * By pulling out the RC1 connector, communication between the main and the sub outdoor units will be isolated. Change the setting of controllable outdoor unit numbers (reduce by 1 unit). * If the setting is incorrect, the E30 alarm (outdoor unit serial communication signal error) occurs and the unit will not operate. Turn on power for all equipment in the system and let the remaining outdoor units run in Cooling mode. Repeat steps and and complete pump down for all outdoor units. Using hoses with Schrader-type push-to-release valves, connect the manifold gauge valves to the suction line service port, the discharge line service port and the liquid line service port in the next outdoor unit to undergo pump down. (Fig. 11) Remaining refrigerant in the system may cause internal pressure. Check that each valve on the manifold gauge is tightly closed. A Schrader-type push-to-release valve is provided for each connection port. Use hoses to connect the manifold gauge valves, refrigerant recovery unit, and refrigerant recovery cylinder. Quickly connect each part to prevent air from entering the tubing. Recover remaining refrigerant from the inter-unit tubing and indoor units using the refrigerant recovery unit. To determine the completion of refrigerant recovery, follow the instructions that came with the refrigerant recovery unit. 2 1 NOTE CAUTION CAUTION 1 2 3 5 6 7 8 10 9 4

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 5. Recovering Refrigerant 5-3. Recovery of Refrigerant from Entire System (1) Turn off power to the entire outdoor system. (2) Short-circuit the AP (Air Purge) pins (CN102) on the outdoor control PCB of all outdoor units, then supply power to the outdoor units. * By short-circuiting the AP pins and supplying power to the outdoor units, the solenoid valve in each unit is forcibly opened and all remaining refrigerant can be recovered. (3) If any unit has encountered a power failure, follow the instructions in “5-1. Refrigerant Recovery Procedures (from Outdoor Units)” and perform refrigerant recovery for the faulty outdoor unit. (4) Connect the manifold gauge to the high- and low-pressure outlet ports (Schrader-type valves) on any outdoor unit. (Fig. 11) Remaining refrigerant may cause internal pressure. Check that each valve on the manifold gauge valves is tightly closed. The connection port uses a Schrader-type push-to-release valve. (5) Connect the manifold gauge valves, refrigerant recovery unit, and refrigerant recovery cylinder. Quickly connect each part to prevent air from entering the tubing. (6) Check that each service valve of the gas tubes, liquid tube, and the balance tube for the outdoor unit has opened, then perform refrigerant recovery. * If only a single outdoor unit is installed, the balance tube is not used. Therefore, leave this valve closed. To determine the completion of refrigerant recovery, follow the instructions that came with the refrigerant recovery unit.

6. Checking for Leakage After Repair W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 6-1. Pressure Check for Leakage of Outdoor Unit After completing repair of the outdoor unit, carry out the following leakage check. (1) Check that all service valves for gas tubes, liquid tube, and balance tube in the repaired outdoor unit (units necessary to carry out the pressurized leak check) are fully closed. (2) Connect the manifold gauge valves to the high- and low-pressure outlet ports of the outdoor unit. (3) Feed nitrogen gas into the circuit until 72.5 psi pressure is reached. If it is apparent that the nitrogen gas is not entering the repaired section, interrupt the feeding. Short-circuit the AP pins (CN102) on the outdoor unit control PCB, turn on power to run the outdoor unit, then resume feeding nitrogen. (4) Apply soapy water to the repaired part (such as a newly brazed part), and briefly inspect for any leakage. If there are any leaks, bubbles will show on the tubing surface. * To continue the air-tight check after the brief leak inspection, turn on power while short-circuiting the AP pins. Again feed nitrogen gas to obtain a system pressure of 72.5 psi. Then measure both the outdoor ambient temperature and the pressure in the system. Leave the system in this state for 1 full day and night, and again measure the outdoor ambient temperature and pressure (to determine any reduced values). During the inspection, it is recommended that an awning or cover be used to shield the unit in case of rain. If no problem is found, purge all nitrogen from the system. 6-2.

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 7. Evacuating System This procedure is carried out to ensure there is no remaining refrigerant or other gases (nitrogen, etc.) in the repaired outdoor unit and tubing. 7-1. Evacuating Repaired Outdoor Unit (1) Check that each service valve of the gas tubes, liquid tube, and balance tube in the outdoor unit are fully closed. (2) Connect the manifold gauge valves to the high-pressure and low-pressure sensor outlets of the outdoor unit. (Fig. 13) (3) Connect the manifold gauge valves to the vacuum pump. * If the AP pins (CN102) on the outdoor control PCB have already been short-circuited, step (4) is not neces- sary. (4) Turn off power to the repaired outdoor unit and short-circuit the AP (Air Purge) pins on the outdoor control PCB. By short-circuiting the AP pins and turning on power to the outdoor unit, all elec- tronic valves in the outdoor unit are forcibly opened and any remaining nitrogen gas can be recovered. Failure to perform this procedure may result in nitrogen gas remaining in the refrigerant circuit and causing operating problems. Therefore, never skip this step. (5) Turn the power ON at the outdoor unit where vacuum will be applied. Then run the vacuum pump and continue evacuation until the vacuum condition falls to less than –14.7 psig (5 Torr). To ensure proper evacuation, refer to the operating instructions that came with the vacuum pump. 7-2.

8. Charging Compressor Oil W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 8-1. If Refrigerant Has Already Been Charged to Outdoor Unit Be sure to use an exclusive oil-charging tank for charging compressor oil. Prior to charging, carry out vacuum drying inside the tank and take care that no air (in the form of bubbles) is permitted to enter the tank. The oil charging procedures are given below. * The receiver tank used for maintenance may be used as an exclusive oil-charging tank. When installing the oil-charging tank to the refrigerant system to serve as a safety bypass circuit for refrigerant, connect it to the gas tube service port carefully to avoid releasing refrigerant into the atmosphere. (DPR : 623-081-7937) Nipple Packless valve (Receiver-tank: 638-015-2988) Perform oil charging work carefully so that no liquid refrigerant enters the charging tank. CAUTION (1) Evacuation drying in oil-charging tank With the lower side valve fully closed, open the upper side valve and connect it to the vacuum pump via the manifold gauge valves as shown below. Run the vacuum pump and evacuate the tank until the pressure falls to below –14.7 psig (5 Torr) for the evacuation drying. After the evacuation drying is finished, fully close the upper valve. Next, fully close the manifold gauge valves and stop the vacuum pump. To ensure proper evacuation, refer to the operating instructions that came with the vacuum pump.

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 8. Charging Compressor Oil (2) Charging compressor oil into oil-charging tank Connect a piece of pipe to the lower valve and then insert the other end deeply into the bottom of the oil con- tainer. Make sure you avoid letting any air be sucked into the tube. Next, run the vacuum pump and open the manifold gauge valves, then open the upper and lower valves to begin charging oil into the charging tank. When the predetermined amount of oil has been charged into the oil-charging tank, immediately close the lower valve. Next, run the vacuum pump until the system pressure reaches lower than -14.7 psig (5 Torr). Close the upper valve and then, stop the vacuum pump. Do this operation quickly because compressor oil easily absorbs moisture from the air. (3) Charging compressor oil into outdoor unit Connect the lower valve to the low-pressure outlet (with Schrader-type push-to-release valve) in the outdoor unit to be oil-charged, and then connect the high-pressure outlet (with push-to-release valve) to the upper valve via the manifold gauge valves (at Hi-pressure gauge side). In addition, connect the gas tube service port (with push-to-release valve) to the DPR (Discharge Pressure Regulator). Carry out the connection work quickly to avoid letting air enter. • The hoses may be subject to internal pressure from the refrigerant inside the out door unit. A Schrader-type push-to-release valve is provided at each connection port. • Since the DPR valve opens at pressures of 362.6 psi and above, be sure to con- nect the DPR to the gas tube service port (low-pressure side).

8. Charging Compressor Oil W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures Next follow the instructions in “5-2-1. Cooling operation (for all units)” at the outdoor unit where oil will be charged, and start cooling operation at all units. When the operating conditions have stabilized, perform steps 1, 2, and 3 in sequence and open the valves. When this is done, the refrigerant pressure from operation forces the oil out of the oil charge tank, and oil is charged into the outdoor unit from the low-pressure outlet port. From time to time close the upper valve on the top of the oil charge tank (only this valve) and shake the tank to check the amount of remaining oil. To terminate the oil charging work, do as follows: To end the charge process, first close the valve on the high-pressure side of the manifold gauge. Then wait several tens of seconds after the pressure display on the manifold gauge low-pressure gauge stabilizes (in order to equalize the pressure with the low-pressure outlet port and to vaporize the refrigerant in the charge tank). Then perform steps 1 and 3 in sequence and fully close the valves. Finally, connect the refrigerant recovery unit to the Lo-gauge side, shut down all indoor and outdoor units, and then recover the remaining refrigerant in the oil-charging tank, manifold gauge valves, and connecting hoses. Perform these procedures quickly and securely so that no air can enter. After, charge the necessary amount of new refrigerant by referring to the “Installation Instructions” that came with the outdoor unit. To determine the completion of refrigerant recovery, follow the instructions that came with the refrigerant recovery unit. 8-2. If Outdoor Unit Has Not Been Charged with Refrigerant When a compressor has been replaced or in any other case where the outdoor unit has not been charged with refrigerant, first charge with refrigerant then follow the instructions in “8-1. If Refrigerant Has Already Been Charged to Outdoor Unit” and charge with oil. Or, alternatively, follow the procedure below. (1) Connect a tube to the oil outlet port on the outdoor unit to be charged with oil. Insert the other end of the tube into the oil container. (2) Follow the instructions in “7. Evacuating System,” and apply vacuum to the outdoor unit to be charged with oil. When this is done, oil is charged into the outdoor unit through the oil outlet port. (3) When the unit has been charged with the designated amount of oil, stop the vacuum pump. The oil absorbs moisture readily. This work must be completed quickly.

Charging Additional Compressor Oil (after replacing compressor) The rated amount of oil is pre-charged in the compressors as given below: When replacing a faulty compressor, be sure to first measure the amount of remaining oil in the compressor. Charge additional new oil equal to the difference in the remaining oil and the rated amount as listed above. For example: Type of replaced compressor: JT160G-KTTJ Remaining oil in the removed compressor: 0.58 gal Additional oil to be charged: 0.58 gal (remaining oil in the removed compressor) – 0.55 gal (rated oil amount) = 0.026 gal * If the result is a negative amount (remaining oil in the removed compressor is less than the rated amount), it is not necessary to discharge the extra oil from the system. For the method used for additional oil charging after compressor replacement, refer to “8-1.

Pumping Out Refrigerant from Outdoor Unit W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures Required equipment and tools: This work is performed in order to collect the refrigerant from an outdoor unit where repairs (other than compressor replacement) will be performed into other outdoor units and indoor units, and the refrigerant tubing. 9-1. If Remote Controller (RCS-TM80BG) is Used for Maintenance of Outdoor Unit (1) Refer to “4. Backup Operation” and perform backup operation. (2) Connect the manifold gauge valves at the Lo side to the low-pressure outlet port of the outdoor unit to be repaired. Also connect the refrigerant recovery cylinder to any one of the normal outdoor units at the liquid line service port (Schrader-type push-to-release valve). Perform the connection work quickly so that no air is allowed to enter. (Fig. 20) * Connecting the refrigerant recovery cylinder is done to prevent pressure from rising excessively during backup operation by recovering the refrigerant from the outdoor unit to be repaired. (Measure the weight of the refrigerant and cylinder itself beforehand and provide sufficient safety measures, such as installing a high-pressure cutout in the circuit.) The hoses may be subject to internal pressure from the refrigerant inside the out- door unit. Check that the manifold gauge valves are fully closed beforehand. A Schrader-type push-to-release valve is provided at each connection port. (3) Connect the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to the RC connector (CN006) (3P) (BLU) on the out- door unit control PCB of the outdoor unit to be repaired. Then start a test run of all units. (Press and hold the (CHECK) button for 4 seconds or longer.) (4) Use the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to check the operating status of the indoor units. Check that all units are operating in Heating mode. For details concerning operation of the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller, refer to the “Outdoor unit maintenance remote controller” item. It is also possible to check the operating conditions either in cooling or heating mode by touching the gas tube. (5) Close the suction tube and balance tube on the outdoor unit to be repaired.

(1) Mechanical trouble (A) Locking (intrusion of foreign objects, galling, etc.) (B) Pressure rise failure (damaged valve, seal, bearing, or other component) (C) Noise (damaged stator rotor, valve, or other component) (2) Electrical trouble (A) Coil burning (B) Open circuit (C) Insulation failure (D) Short circuit Trouble diagnosis is based on the following remote controller displays: [H03] (Compressor 1: INV compressor, center), [H11] [H12] [H13] (Compressor 2: constant-speed compressor 1, left side when viewed from front), [H21] [H22] [H23] (Compressor 3: constant-speed compressor 2, right side when viewed from front (not present in type 90). A judgment is made based on factors that include the following: coil resistance (varies depending on the compressor), insulation resistance, current, leakage breaker operation, oil and refrigerant fouling, odor, pressure, and noise. Reference: Insulation resistance (Use a DC 500 V insulation resistance meter and measure the insulation resis- tance between the electrified and non-electrified parts.) (a) Motor Min. 300 M (b) Compressor Min. 100 M (servicing part) (c) Unit Min. 10 M (This is due to the presence of refrigerant, which decreases the insulation resistance.) * Minimum insulation resistance as required by generally accepted requirements is 1 M . Reference: Symptoms of motor burning 1. Ground fault results in breaker operation. 2. Short circuit results in different coil resistance at different phases. 3.

Replacing only the failed compressor (1) If backup operation is required, follow the instructions in “4. Backup Operation” and engage backup operation. (2) Follow the instructions in “10-3. Removing and Installing Compressors” and replace the failed compressor. (3) Fully close the high- and low-pressure gauge valves on the manifold gauge, then stop the vacuum pump. (4) Disconnect the manifold gauge from vacuum pump. Connect the manifold gauge to the cylinder where the refrigerant was recovered. At this time, be careful that air does not enter the tubing. (5) Open the valve on the refrigerant recovery cylinder and the high-pressure gauge valve on the manifold gauge to charge with refrigerant. At this time, the low-pressure gauge valve on the manifold gauge remains fully closed. If the recovered refrigerant becomes mixed with another refrigerant or another gas (such as nitrogen or air), do not use the recovered refrigerant for charging. Charge with the designated amount of new refrigerant. (6) When charging has been completed with an amount of new refrigerant equal to the amount of recovered refrigerant, or when charging with the same amount of new refrigerant has not been completed but no more refrigerant will enter the unit, fully close the high-pressure gauge valve on the manifold gauge. Next, turn the power OFF at the repaired outdoor unit, then remove the short circuit at the AP pin (CN102). Finally, fully open all valves on the gas tube, liquid tube, and balance tube. However, leave the balance tube fully closed if only a single outdoor unit is installed. (7) If backup operation was engaged, follow the instructions in “4. Backup Operation” and perform backup opera- tion recovery. (8) If charging with an amount of new refrigerant equal to the amount of recovered refrigerant was not possible, fully close the high-pressure gauge valve on the manifold gauge. Then, while the unit is operating in “5-2-1. Cooling operation (for all units)”, open the low-pressure gauge valve on the manifold gauge and charge with the designated amount of refrigerant. When charging with liquid refrigerant, add refrigerant a little at a time in order to prevent liquid back-flow. (9) Fully close the low-pressure gauge valves on the manifold gauge, follow the instructions in “8. Charging Com- pressor Oil,” and charge with oil if necessary. (10) Remove the manifold gauge.

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Repair Procedures 10. Compressor 10-2-4. Dry core cleaning If burning or other failures occur repeatedly at compressors within the same system, in many cases the cause is acid, sludge, carbon, or other substances that remain in the refrigeration cycle as the result of insufficient cleaning. If, when the oil is inspected, there is an outdoor unit where the oil color phase is 4.0 or higher, or where a sharp odor is present, carry out all steps below to perform dry core cleaning. And use the bidirectional dry core for refrigerant R410A. (A) If a ball valve is installed on the outdoor unit (1) Refer to “5-2-1. Cooling operation (for all units)” and operate all outdoor units in either Heating or Cooling mode. (2) If all units are operated in Cooling mode, close first the liquid tube service valve then the ball valve on all out- door units where dry cores will be attached. If all units are operated in Heating mode, close first the ball valve then the liquid tube service valve on all out- door units where dry cores will be attached. This step is performed in order to expel refrigerant from the tubing between the liquid tube service valve and the ball valve. Approximately 4 – 5 seconds is a sufficient interval between closing each of the 2 valves. (3) If the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller is not available, use the following method to stop the oper- ation of all units: Pull out the SCT connector (2P) (YEL) (CN231) from the outdoor unit control PCB of the unit where pump-down is being performed. When the SCT connector is pulled out, alarm F12 (sensor trouble) immediately occurs and all outdoor units stop operating. Be sure that you do NOT grasp the lead wire when pulling out the connector. Removing any other connector may not cause the units to stop. Therefore be sure to pull out only the SCT connector. (4) Connect a refrigerant recovery device to the liquid tube service port (Schrader-type valve) of all outdoor units where dry cores will be attached, then recover the refrigerant from the tubing. Be sure that no air enters the tubing at this time. When the hose is connected, internal pressure is applied by the remaining refriger- ant in the inter-unit tubing. The connection port employs a Schrader-type valve. To determine when refrigerant recovery is compete, follow the instructions in the instruction manual of the refrigerant recovery device. (5) As shown in Fig. 21, disconnect the tube that runs from the liquid tube valve to the ball valve on all outdoor units where dry cores will be attached. Then attach the dry cores. (6) At all outdoor units where dry cores are attached, pressurize with 478.6 psi of nitrogen from the liquid tube service port and check for leaks. (7) After evacuating all nitrogen gas from the tubing, apply vacuum from the liquid tube service port to all outdoor units where dry cores are attached until the pressure is –14.7 psig (5 Torr) or less. (8) Fully open the liquid tube valve and ball valve on all outdoor units where dry cores are attached. (9) Operate all outdoor units for approximately 3 hours (in either Heating or Cooling mode or mixed Cooling and Heating mode). (10) Follow the above procedure, and replace all dry cores with new dry cores. (11) Operate all outdoor units for approximately 20 minutes (in either Heating or Cooling mode or mixed Cooling and Heating mode). (12) Follow the instructions in “3. Discharging Compressor Oil” and drain a small amount of the oil from the oil separators of all outdoor units where dry cores are attached. Check the color phase, odor, and other characteristics. (13) If the results show that dry core cleaning is still necessary (for example, a color phase of 4.0 or higher)*, return to Step 11 and repeat until the results are normal (including a color phase of 3.5 or less)*. * Color sample sheet for degree of stain Perform another dry core replacement after approximately 30 hours of system operation. ON/OFF CAUTION CAUTION * * Press the button on the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to stop the operation of all units.

1. Overview W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Outdoor Unit Maintenance Remote Controller OUTDOOR UNIT MAINTENANCE REMOTE CONTROLLER (RCS-TM80BG) for W-2WAY ECO-i NAbout the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller The outdoor unit utilizes nonvolatile memory (EEPROM) on its PCB. This allows EEPROM data to replace the setting switches that were present on previous PCBs. The outdoor unit maintenance remote controller is used to set and change these EEPROM data. In addition to setting and checking the outdoor unit EEPROM data, this remote controller can also be used to monitor the outdoor unit alarm history, monitor the various indoor and outdoor temperatures, and check the indoor unit connection status (number of units, operating mode, etc.). NOTE Outdoor unit maintenance remote controller does not function as an ordinary remote controller. It is therefore only used for test runs and during servicing. L The special service checker wiring is required in order to connect the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to the outdoor unit PCB. L Ordinary remote controllers or other controller are still required for the indoor units, even when the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller is connected.
