IMPORTANT:

•

Consult
local building
codes and National
Electrical
Code (NEC, U.S.A.) for special installation requirements.

•

Control

•

Use only type "G" or"C"

•

Use single length

•

Allow sufficient space for airflow clearance on condensing units for wiring, refiigerant
piping, and servicing
unit. See Fig. 1 and 2 for minimum required distances
between unit and walls or ceilings.
Indoor and outdoor units should be installed at a minimum of 10 It apart. Maximum line length is 130 It, and
vertical separation is 66 It.
Do not install indoor units near a direct source of heat
such as direct sunlight, steam or flame.

CONSIDERATIONS

Installing, starting up, and servicing air-conditioning equipment can be haz_udous due to system pressures, electrical components, and equipment location (roofs, elevated structures, etc.).
Only trained, qualified installers and service mechanics
should install, start-up, and service this equipment.
Untrained personnel can pet-form basic maintenance functions such as cleaning coils. All other operations should be
performed by trained service personnel.
When working on the equipment, observe precautions in
the literature and on tags, stickers, and labels attached to the
equipment.
Follow zdl safety codes. We_u safety glasses and work gloves.
Keep quenching cloth and fire extinguisher ne_uby when brazing. Use care in handling, rigging, and setting bulky equipment.

Do not bury more than 36 in. of refi'igerant pipe in the
ground, ff any section of pipe is buried, there must be a
6 in. vertical rise to the valve connections on the outdoor
units. If more than the recommended
length is buried,
refrigerant may migrate to the cooler buried section during
extended periods of system shut down. This causes refrigerant slugging and could possibly &image the compressor
at start-up.

Before installing or servicing system, _dways turn off main

DRILL A HOLE [N THE WALL FOR DRAINAGE
AND
INTER-UNIT CONNECTIONSTo make the connections
between the indoor and outdoor units, a 3-in. hole should be
&illed for the refrigerant lines, drainage hose and control cable
passage through the wall as shown in Fig. 5.
1. Mark the center of the hole to be &illed according to the refrigerant line routing used trod dimensions shown in Fig. 4.
2. Make sure to drill outwards and downwards, so that the
opening in the outside wall is at least l/2-in, lower than
the opening on the inside.
3. Make sure the drainage hose is fit the bottom side of the
hole.
4. If refrigerant line route no. 1,4 or 5 me used, use a sm_dl
saw blade to carefully remove file corresponding
plastic

6. Make sure that file wires are connected in accor&mce
with the wMng diagram on the inside of the front covel.
or within this instruction manual.
7. Attach the inte>unit control cable with the cable clamp
located on the unit.
8. For heat pump units only. connect the Outdoor Sensor
TH3 connector to its mating connector (see Fig. 7).

1. Connect the display connector to the display panel printed circuit board.
2. Reassemble the end panel(s), using the scmws (Fig. 6).
CONNECT REFRIGERANT LINES -- Connect the ends of
the refrigerant lines to their appropriate fittings (see Fig. 9),
following these guidelines:
To connect the refrigerant lines use only "L" type sealed,
dehydi'ated copper refrigerant tubing. No other type of tubing
may be used. Use of other types of tubing will void the manufacturer's walTant y.
Do not open service valves or remove protective caps from
tubing ends until all the connections am made.
Take cam to avoid kinks or flattening of the tubing.
Bend tubing with special bending tools to avoid the formation of sharp bends.
Keep the tubing fme of dirt, sand, moisture and other contaminants to avoid &imaging the refrigerant system.
Avoid sags in the suction line to prevent the formation of oil
traps.
Insulate both refrigerant lines sepmately with 3/8-in. walled
therm_d pipe insulation. Inserting the tubing into file insulation
before making the connections can save time and improve
insulation. The suction and mixed-phase lines should never
come in direct contact.
