ATTENTION INSTALLERS AND SERVICE TECHNICIANS!
AIR CONDITIONER WITH R-410A – QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
• R-410A refrigerant operates at 50%-70% higher pressures than R-22. Be sure that servicing
equipment and replacement components are designed to operate with R-410A.
• R-410A refrigerant cylinders are pink.
• R-410A refrigerant cylinders have a dip tube which allows liquid to flow out with the cylinder in a vertical
position with the valve at the top.
• R-410A systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device
in the manifold hose in order to vaporize the liquid refrigerant before it enters in the unit.
• A vacuum pump is not enough to remove moisture from oil.
• Oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere.
• Never open system to atmosphere while it is under vacuum.
• When the system must be opened for service, break vacuum with dry nitrogen.
• Do not vent R-410A into the atmosphere.
• Use only Carrier matching indoor units (Table I).

General information
Precautions for safety
The unit must be installed according to the national plantengineering standards.
• Read this “PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFETY” carefully before
Installation.
• The precautions described below include the important items
regarding safety. Observe them without fail.
• After the installation work, perform a trial operation to check for
any problem.
Follow the Owner’s Manual to explain how to use and maintain the
unit to the customer.
• Turn off the main power supply switch (or breaker) before the unit
maintenance.
• Ask the customer to keep the Installation Manual together with the
Owner’s Manual.
CAUTION:
• This air conditioner adopts the new HFC refrigerant (R410A)
which does not destroy ozone layer.
The characteristics of R410A refrigerant are ; easy to absorb
water, oxidizing membrane or oil, and its pressure is approx. 1.6
times higher than that of refrigerant R22.
Accompanied with the new refrigerant, refrigerating oil has also
been changed.
Therefore, during installation work, be sure that water, dust,
former refrigerant, or refrigerating oil does not enter the
refrigerating cycle.
To prevent charging an incorrect refrigerant and refrigerating oil,
the sizes of connecting sections of charging port of the main unit
and installation tools are charged from those for the conventional
refrigerant. Accordingly the exclusive tools are required for the
new refrigerant (R410A).
• Connect indoor and outdoor units with field-supplied copper pipes
by means of flare connections. Use insulated seamless
refrigeration grade pipe only, (Cu DHP type according to
ISO1337), degreased and deoxidized, suitable for operating
pressures of at least 4200 kPa and for burst pressure of at least
20700 kPa. Under no circumstances must sanitary type copper
pipe be used.
Moreover, do not use the existing piping because there are
problems with pressure-resistance force and impurity in it.
• Check that the impedance of the mains power supply is in
conformance with the unit power input indicated in the
electric data (EN 61000-3-11).
• This unit complies with low-voltage (EEC/73/23) and electromagnetic compatibility (EEC/89/336) directives.
• This appliance must be connected to the main power supply by
means of a switch with a contact separation of at least 3 mm.
) must be used for
The installation fuse (25A D type
the power supply line of this conditioner.
WARNING:
• Ask an authorized dealer or qualified installation professional to
install/maintain the air conditioner. Inappropriate installation may
result in water leakage, electric shock or fire.
• Turn off the main power supply switch or breaker before attempting
any electrical work. Make sure all power switches are off. Failure
to do so may cause electric shock.
• Connect the connecting cable correctly. If the connecting cable is
connected in a wrong way, electric parts may be damaged.
• When moving the air conditioner for the installation into another
place, be very careful not to enter any gaseous matter other than
the specified refrigerant into the refrigeration cycle.
If air or any other gas is mixed in the refrigerant, the gas pressure
in the refrigeration cycle becomes abnormally high and it may
cause pipe burst and injuries on persons.
• Do not modify this unit by removing any of the safety guards or by
by-passing any of the safety interlock switches.
• Exposure of unit to water or other moisture before installation may
cause a short-circuit of electrical parts. Do not store it in a wet
basement or expose to rain or water.
• After unpacking the unit, examine it carefully for possible damage.
• Do not install in a place that might increase the vibration of the unit.
• To avoid personal injury (with sharp edges), be careful when
handling parts.

GB - 2

• Perform installation work properly according to the Installation
Manual.
Inappropriate installation may result in water leakage, electric
shock or fire.
• When the air conditioner is installed in a small room, provide
appropriate measures to ensure that the concentration of
refrigerant leakage occurred in the room does not exceed the
critical level.
• Install the air conditioner securely in a location where the base
can sustain the weight adequately.
• Perform the specified installation work to guard against an
earthquake.
If the air conditioner is not installed correctly, accidents may occur
due to the falling unit.
• If refrigerant gas has leaked during the installation work, ventilate
the room immediately.
If the leaked refrigerant gas comes in contact with fire, noxious
gas may generate.
• After the installation work, confirm that refrigerant gas does not
leak. If refrigerant gas leaks into the room and flows near a fire
source, such as a cooking range, noxious gas might generate.
• Electrical work must be performed by a qualified electrician in
accordance with the Installation Manual.
Make sure the air conditioner uses an exclusive power supply. An
insufficient power supply capacity or inappropriate installation may
cause fire.
• Use the specified cables for wiring and connect them firmly to
the terminals.
To prevent external forces applied to the terminals from affecting
the terminals.
• Be sure to provide grounding. Do not connect ground wires to gas
pipes, water pipes, lightning rods or ground wires for telephone
cables.
• Conform to the regulations of the local electric company when
wiring the power supply.
Inappropriate grounding may cause electric shock.
• Do not install the air conditioner in a location subject to a risk of
exposure to a combustible gas.
If a combustible gas leaks, and stays around the unit, a fire may
occur.

Air Purge

Vacuum pump

With respect to the preservation of terrestrial environment, adopt
“Vacuum pump” for air purge (Evacuate air in the connecting pipes)
when installing the unit.

• As shown in the right figure, connect the charge hose after the
manifold valves are closed completely.
• Attach the connecting port of the charge hose with a projection to
push the valve core (setting pin) to the charge port of the set.
• Open handle Low fully.
• Turn ON the vacuum pump.(*1)
• Loosen the flare nut of the packed valve (Gas side) a little to
check the air passes through.(*2)
• Tighten the flare nut again.
• Execute vacuuming until the compound pressure gauge indicates
–101kPa (–76cmHg). (*1)
• Close handle Low completely.
• Turn OFF the vacuum pump.
• Leave the vacuum pump as it is for 1 or 2 minutes, and check the
indicator of the compound pressure gauge does not return.
• Open fully the valve stem or the valve handle. (First, at liquid side,
then gas side)
• Disconnect the charge hose from the charge port.
• Tighten valve and caps of the charge port surely.

• Do not discharge the refrigerant gas to the atmosphere to
preserve the terrestrial environment.
• Use a vacuum pump to discharge the air (nitrogen, etc.) remained
in the set. If the air remains, the capacity may decrease.
For the vacuum pump, be sure to use one with backflow preventer
so that the oil in the pump does not backflow into the pipe of the air
conditioner when the pump stops.
(If oil in the vacuum pump is put in an air conditioner including
R410A, it may cause trouble on the refrigeration cycle.)

Check and Test Operation
For R410A, use the leak detector exclusively manufactured for HFC
refrigerant (R410A, R134a, etc.).
• The conventional leak detector for HCFC refrigerant (R22, etc.)
cannot be used because its sensitivity for HFC refrigerant lowers
to approx. 1/40.

• Pressure of R410A is approx. 1.6 times higher than that of R22.
If installation work is incompletely finished, a gas leakage may
occur when pressure rises during operation.
Therefore, be sure to test the piping connections for leakage.
• Check gas leakage at the flare nut connections, valve stem cap
connections and service port cap fittings with a leak detector or
soap water.

Useful Functions (38VYX080 only)
Self-Diagnosis by LED Indication
Troubles of the outdoor unit can be diagnosed by LED indications
on the cycle control P.C. board of the outdoor unit. Utilize them for
various checks.
For the check by remote controller of the indoor unit, refer to the
Installation Manual of the outdoor unit.
Before a check, confirm each bit of the DIP switch is set to OFF
position.

Installation/Servicing Tools
Changes in the product and components
In the case of an air conditioner using R410A, in order to prevent
any other refrigerant from being charged accidentally, service port

diameter of the outdoor unit control valve (3 way valve) has been
changed. (1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch)
• In order to increase the pressure resisting strength of the
refrigerant piping flare processing diameter and size of opposite
side of flare nuts has been changed. (for copper pipes with
nominal dimensions 1/2 and 5/8)

New tools for R410A

Gauge manifold

Applicable to R22 model

As pressure is high, it is impossible to measure by means of conventional
gauge. In order to prevent any other refrigerant from being charged, each
port diameter is changed.

x

In order to increase pressure resisting strength,
hose materials and port size are changed (to 1/2 UNF 20 threads per
inch). When purchasing a charge hose, be sure to check the port size.

Charge hose

Changes

o

As pressure is high and gasification speed is fast, it is difficult
to read the indicated value by means of charging cylinder, as air bubbles
occur.

Torque wrench
(nominal diam. 1/2, 5/8)

The size of opposite sides of flare nuts have been increased. Incidentally,
a common wrench is used for nominal diameters 1/4 and 3/8.

Used when flare is made with using conventional flare tool.

Connected to the conventional vacuum pump. It is necessary to use an
adapter to prevent vacuum pump oil from flowing back to the charge hose.
The charge hose connecting part has two ports-one for conventional
refrigerant (7/16 UNF 20 threads per inch) and one for R410A.
If the vacuum pump oil (mineral) mixes with R410A a sludge may occur
and damage the equipment.

Exclusive for HFC refrigerant.

• Incidentally, the “refrigerant cylinder” comes with the refrigerant designation (R410A) and protector coating in the U,S.’s ARI specified rose
color (ARI color code: PMS 507).
• Also, the “charge port and packing for refrigerant cylinder” require 1/2 UNF 20 threads per inch corresponding to the charge hose’s port
size.
