    IMPORTANT! Please Read Before Starting

    This air conditioning system meets strict safety and oper-ating standards. As the installer or service person, it is animportant part of your job to install or service the systemso it operates safely and efficiently.

    For safe installation and trouble-free operation, youmust:● Carefully read this instruction booklet before beginning.● Follow each installation or repair step exactly as

    shown.● Observe all local, state, and national electrical codes.● Pay close attention to all warning and caution notices

    given in this manual.This symbol refers to a haz-ard or unsafe practice whichcan result in severe personalinjury or death.This symbol refers to a hazardor unsafe practice which canresult in personal injury orproduct or property damage.

    If Necessary, Get HelpThese instructions are all you need for most installationsites and maintenance conditions. If you require help fora special problem, contact our sales/service outlet oryour certified dealer for additional instructions.

    In Case of Improper InstallationThe manufacturer shall in no way be responsible forimproper installation or maintenance service, includingfailure to follow the instructions in this document.

    SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS

    When Wiring

    ELECTRICAL SHOCK CAN CAUSESEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.ONLY A QUALIFIED, EXPERIENCEDELECTRICIAN SHOULD ATTEMPT TOWIRE THIS SYSTEM.

    • Do not supply power to the unit until all wiring and tub-ing are completed or reconnected and checked.

    • Highly dangerous electrical voltages are used in thissystem. Carefully refer to the wiring diagram andthese instructions when wiring. Improper connectionsand inadequate grounding can cause accidentalinjury or death.

    • Ground the unit following local electrical codes.• Connect all wiring tightly. Loose wiring may cause

    overheating at connection points and a possible firehazard.

    When Transporting

    Be careful when picking up and moving the indoor andoutdoor units. Get a partner to help, and bend yourknees when lifting to reduce strain on your back. Sharpedges or thin aluminum fins on the air conditioner cancut your fingers.

    When Installing……In a Ceiling or WallMake sure the ceiling/wall is strong enough to hold theunit’s weight. It may be necessary to construct a strongwood or metal frame to provide added support.…In a RoomProperly insulate any tubing run inside a room to prevent“sweating” that can cause dripping and water damage towalls and floors.…In Moist or Uneven LocationsUse a raised concrete pad or concrete blocks to providea solid, level foundation for the outdoor unit. This pre-vents water damage and abnormal vibration.…In an Area with High WindsSecurely anchor the outdoor unit down with bolts and ametal frame. Provide a suitable air baffle. …In a Snowy Area (for Heat Pump-type Systems)Install the outdoor unit on a raised platform that is higherthan drifting snow. Provide snow vents.

    When Connecting Refrigerant Tubing• 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 connection.

    • Check carefully for leaks before starting the test run.

    When Servicing• Turn the power OFF at the main power box (mains)

    before opening the unit to check or repair electricalparts and wiring.

    • Keep your fingers and clothing away from any movingparts.

    • Clean up the site after you finish, remembering tocheck that no metal scraps or bits of wiring have beenleft inside the unit being serviced.

    Others

    • Ventilate any enclosed areas when installing or testingthe refrigeration system. Escaped refrigerant gas, oncontact with fire or heat, can produce dangerouslytoxic gas.

    • Confirm upon completing installation that no refriger-ant gas is leaking. If escaped gas comes in contactwith a stove, gas water heater, electric room heater orother heat source, it can produce dangerously toxicgas.

    Insulation of Refrigerant Tubing

    Because capillary tubing is used in the outdoor unit, both thewide and narrow tubes of this air conditioner become cold. Toprevent heat loss and wet floors due to dripping ofcondensation, both tubes must be well insulated with a proper insulation material. The thickness of the insulationshould be a min. 8 mm.

    After a tube has been insulated,never try to bend it into a narrowcurve because it can cause the tubeto break or crack.

    ■ Emergency operation ■ SENSOR DRY

    ■ AUTO cooling/heating operation

    ● Selecting the operation mode

    During DRY operation, the system adjusts the room temperature and fan speed according to the conditions in the room, in order to maintain a comfortable room environment.

    SENSOR DRY operation• DRY operation is as shown in the figure below.

    ■ PAM-α control• In order to further improve inverter performance, control is

    switched between PWM control at low operation speeds, and PAM control at high operation speeds, making the most effective use of power.

    The compressor operation frequency varies.The indoor fan operates with 1/f fluctuation.

    The compressor operates at a low operating frequency.The indoor fan operates with 1/f fluctuation.

    • Monitoring operation takes place when the room temperature is below 15°C, or more than 3°C below the set temperature.

    • When the monitoring range is entered, the compressor stops, and the indoor fan operates with 1/f fluctuation.

    ■ Overload prevention during heating

    9-2. Protective Functions

    During HEAT operation, the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is used to control the frequency and lessen the load on the compressor before the protective device is activated.

    ■ Cold-air prevention during heating

    ■ Compressor discharge temperature control

    During heating, the fan speed is set to “LL” (very low) or stopped.As the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger rises, the fan speed is changed to the set speed.

    ■ Freeze preventionDuring COOL or DRY operation, freezing is detected and operation is stopped when the temperature of the indoor heat exchanger matches the conditions below.1 Freeze-prevention operation is engaged when the

    temperature of the indoor heat exchanger is below 6°C.2 Restart after freeze-prevention operation occurs when the

    temperature of the indoor heat exchanger reaches 8°C or above.

    a Area: Automatic capacity controlb When Point A has been exceeded, the operation frequency is

    reduced by a certain proportion.c Area: Frequency increase is prohibited.d At Point B and below, overload prevention is ended and

    control is the same as in the a area.

    a Area: Automatic capacity controlb When the temperature drops below Point A, the operation

    frequency is reduced by a certain proportion.c Area: Frequency increase is prohibited.d When the temperature reaches Point C or above, freezing

    prevention is ended and control is the same as in the a area.

    * When the temperature drops to below 2°C (continuously for 2 minutes or longer), the compressor stops.Once the freeze condition is detected, the air conditioner will work less than the maximum frequency until it is turned off.

    NOTE• The fan speed is forcibly changed to “LL” beginning 30 seconds

    after the thermostat turns OFF.• Normal operation refers to operation when the room

    temperature has approached the set temperature.• When HEAT operation starts, the indoor fan is stopped until the

    temperature of the indoor heat exchanger reaches 20°C or higher, or until the room temperature reaches 15°C or higher.

    This function controls the operation frequency to prevent the compressor discharge temperature from rising more than a specified temperature.

    a Area: Automatic capacity control.b When the temperature rises above Point A, the operation

    frequency is reduced at a specified rate.c Area: Further frequency increase is prohibited.d When the temperature falls below Point B, prevention of a rise

    in frequency is released and the air conditioner operates as in a area.

    ● Reverse-Cycle Defrosting

    NOTE

    ■ Defrost detection and release

    • This function prevents the circuit breaker or fuse from operating to open the circuit. This function works when electrical current has increased due to an increase in the cooling / heating load, or to a decrease in the power supply voltage. In these cases, operation frequency is reduced or operation is interrupted auto-matically to control the electrical current for operation.

    • When the cause of the increase in electrical current is rectified, the system will resume operation in the original mode.

    Electrical current setting for COOL operation is used during DEFROST operation.

    10. TROUBLESHOOTING

    ■ Precautions before performing inspection or repair

    NOTE

    Executing self-diagnostics

    ● After checking the self-diagnostics monitor, turn the power OFF before starting inspection or repair.

    ● High-capacity electrolytic capacitors are used inside the outdoor unit controller (inverter). They retain an electrical charge (charging voltage DC 310 V) even after the power is turned OFF, and some time is required for the charge to dissipate. Be careful not to touch any electrified parts before the controller LED (red) turns OFF.If the outdoor controller is normal, approximately 30 seconds will be required for the charge to dissipate. However, allow at least 5 minutes for the charge to dissipate if there is thought to be any trouble with the outdoor controller.

    1: If the operation lamp blinks every 0.5 seconds immediately when the power is turned ON, there is an external ROM (OTP data) failure on the indoor circuit board, or a ROM socket insertion problem, or the ROM has not been installed.

    2: The failure mode is stored in memory even when the power is not ON. Follow the procedure below to perform diagnostics.

    ■ Method of self-diagnosticsFollow the procedure below to perform detailed trouble diagnostics.

    Step 1: Press and hold the remote controller QUIET button and 1 HR TIMER button. At the same time, press the ACL (reset) button. Use a pointed object such as the tip of a pen to press the ACL button.When this has been done, “oP-1” (test run) appears, blinking, in the remote controller clock display area.

    Step 2: Next, press the 1 HR TIMER button once to change the display from “oP-1” to “oP-3” (self-diagnostics). (The display continues to blink.)

    Step 3: Finally press the ON/OFF button to engage self-diagnostics mode.

    • The self-diagnostics function utilizes the 3 indicator lamps on the main unit, in combinations of ON lamps, blinking lamps, and OFF lamps, to report the existence of sensor trouble or a protective operation. (The lamps blink or remain ON for 5 seconds, then turn OFF for 2 seconds.) Self-diagnostics is completed when the buzzer sounds 3 short beeps.

    • A maximum of 3 self-diagnostics reports are displayed, for 5 seconds each, beginning with the most recent report. Following this display the lamps turn OFF. In order to view the self-diagnostics results again, press the ON/OFF button again.

    • The 3 lamps remain OFF if no trouble has occurred.

    After self-diagnostics is completed, be sure to press the ACL (reset) button to return to normal mode. The air conditioner will not operate if this is not done.

    After turning on power to the air conditioner, use the remote controller and follow the steps below to execute self-diagnostics.

    .....Applied for only SAP-CRV123 outdoor unit● This outdoor DC fan motor contains an internal control PCB. Therefore, it is not possible to measure the coil

    resistance, and the following procedure should be used to check the motor.● To perform diagnosis, follow the instructions in “Checking the Outdoor Unit” on the previous page and set the

    outdoor unit to Test Run mode (compressor ON, outdoor fan motor ON).Important: (A) Turn OFF the power before connecting or disconnecting the motor connectors.

    (B) When performing voltage measurement at the outdoor controller connector for (3) in the tablebelow, the DC motor will trip and voltage output will stop approximately 10 seconds afteroperation is started. For this reason, to measure the voltage again, first turn OFF the outdoorunit power, then follow the instructions in “Checking the Outdoor Unit” and again set the unitto Test Run mode.

    [Trouble symptom 1] The fan does not stop when the outdoor unit stops. → Outdoor unit controller trouble

    [Trouble symptom 2] The fan motor does not rotate when the outdoor unit is operating.(Diagnostic procedure)

    * Disconnect the motor connectors and measure the voltage at the DC motor connectors on the outdoorunit controller (3 locations).

    An inverter A/C operates using pulse signal control and high frequencies. Therefore, it is susceptible to the effects of external noise, and is likely to cause electromagnetic interference with nearby wireless devices. A noise filter is installed for ordinary use, preventing these problems. However, depending on the installation conditions, these effects may still occur. Please pay attention to the points listed below.

    ■ Noise malfunctionThis refers to the application of high-frequency noise to the signal wires, resulting in abnormal signal pulses and malfunction.

    Locations most susceptible to noise

    1. Locations near broadcast stations where there are strong electromagnetic waves

    2. Locations near amateur radio (short wave) stations

    3. Locations near electronic sewing machines and arc-welding machines

    Correction

    (The fundamental concept is to make the system less susceptible to noise.)

    — Insulate for noise ordistance from the noise source. —

    1. Use shielded wires.2. Move unit away from the noise source.

    Trouble

    Either of the following trouble may occur.1. The unit may stop suddenly during

    operation.2. Indicator lamps may flicker.

    ■ Electromagnetic interferenceThis refers to noise generated by high-speed switching of the microcomputer and compressor. This noise radiates through space and returns to the electric wiring, affecting any wireless devices (televisions, radios, etc.) located nearby.

    Locations most susceptible to noise

    1. A television or radio is located near the A/C and A/C wiring.

    2. The antenna cable for a television or radio is located close to the A/C and A/C wiring.

    3. Locations where television and radio signals are weak.

    Correction

    1. Select a separate power source.2. Keep the A/C and A/C wiring at least 1 meter

    away from wireless devices and antenna cables.3. Change the wireless device’s antenna to a high-

    sensitivity antenna.4. Change the antenna cable to a BS coaxial cable.5. Use a noise filter (for the wireless device).6. Use a signal booster.

    Trouble

    1. Noise appears in the television picture, or the picture is distorted.

    2. Static occurs in the radio sound.

    11-1. Measurement of InsulationResistance

    ● The insulation is in good condition if the resistanceexceeds 1MΩ.

    11-1-1. Power supply cordClamp the grounding wire of power cord with the leadclip of the insulation resistance tester and measurethe resistance by placing a probe on either of the twopower wires. (Fig. 1)

    Then also measure the resistance between thegrounding and other power terminals. (Fig. 1)

    11-1-2. Indoor unitClamp an aluminum plate fin or copper tube with thelead clip of the insulation resistance tester and mea-sure the resistance by placing a probe on each termi-nal screw where power supply lines are connected onthe terminal plate. (Fig. 2)

    11-1-3. Outdoor unitClamp an aluminum plate fin or copper tube with thelead clip of the insulation resistance tester and mea-sure the resistance by placing a probe on each termi-nal screw on the terminal plate. (Fig. 2)

    Note that the ground line terminal should be skippedfor the check.

    11-1-4. Measurement of insulation resistance for electrical parts

    Disconnect the lead wires of the desired electric partfrom terminal plate, capacitor, etc. Similarly discon-nect the connector. Then measure the insulationresistance. (Figs. 3 and 4)

    Refer to Electric Wiring Diagram.

    If the probe cannot enter the poles because the holeis too narrow then use a probe with a thinner pin.

    12. REFRIGERANT R410A: SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN SERVICING UNIT

    12-1. Characteristics of New Refrigerant R410A12-1-1. What is New Refrigerant R410A?R410A is a new refrigerant that contains two types of pseudo-non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture. Itsrefrigeration capacity and energy efficiency are about the same level as the conventional refrigerant, R22.

    12-1-2. Components (mixing proportions)HFC32 (50%) / HFC125 (50%)

    12-1-3. Characteristics● Less toxic, more chemically stable refrigerant

    ● The composition of refrigerant R410A changes whether it is in a gaseous phase or liquid phase. Thus, whenthere is a refrigerant leak the basic performance of the air conditioner may be degraded because of a changein composition of the remaining refrigerant. Therefore, do not add new refrigerant. Instead, recover theremaining refrigerant with the refrigerant recovery unit. Then, after evacuation, totally recharge the specifiedamount of refrigerant with the new refrigerant at its normal mixed composition state (in liquid phase).

    ● When refrigerant R410A is used, the composition will differ depending on whether it is in gaseous or liquidphase, and the basic performance of the air conditioner will be degraded if it is charged while the refrigerant isin gaseous state. Thus, always charge the refrigerant while it is in liquid phase.

    12-2. Checklist Before ServicingUse a clutch-type flare tool for R410A or the conventional flare tool. Note that sizes of the resultant flares differbetween these two tools. Where a conventional flare tool is used, make sure to observe A Specification (amountof extrusion) by using the flare spacer.

    ● Size of flare

    CAUTION Ether-type oil is used for compressor oil for R410A-type units, which is differentfrom the mineral oil used for R22. Thus more attention to moisture prevention andfaster replacement work compared with conventional models are required.

    ● Tubing precautions

    Refrigerant R410A is more easily affected by dust or moisture compared with R22, thus be sure to temporarilycover the ends of the tubing with caps or tape prior to installation.

    Never use 0.7mm-thick copper tubing or tubing which is less than 0.8mm in thickness, since air conditionerswith R410A are subject to higher pressure than those using R22 and R407C.

    ● No addition of compressor oil for R410ANo additional charge of compressor oil is permitted.

    ● No use of refrigerant other than R410ANever use a refrigerant other than R410A.

    ● If refrigerant R410A is exposed to fireThrough welding, etc., toxic gas may be released when R410A refrigerant is exposed to fire. Therefore, besure to provide ample ventilation during installation work.

    ● Caution in case of R410A leakCheck for possible leak points with the special leak detector for R410A. If a leak occurs inside the room, imme-diately provide thorough ventilation.

  • 47

    12-3. Tools Specifically for R410A● For servicing, use the following tools for R410A

    ● To prevent other refrigerants (R22, R407C) from being mistakenly charged to this unit, sizes of the serviceports and flare nuts of the narrow tube service valve and wide tube service valve have been altered.

    12-4. Tubing Installation ProceduresWhen the tubes are connected, always apply HAB oil on the flare portions to improve the sealing of tubing.

    The following is the HAB oil generally used:

    Esso: ZERICE S32

    For details on tubing installation procedures, refer to the installation manuals attached to theindoor unit and outdoor unit.

    12-5. In Case of Compressor Malfunction

    12-5-1. Procedure for replacing compressor(1) Recovering refrigerant

    ● Any remaining refrigerant inside the unit should not bereleased to the atmosphere, but recovered using therefrigerant recovery unit for R410A.

    ● Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant, since it willcontain impurities.

    (2) Replacing Compressor

    ● Soon after removing seals of both discharge and suc-tion tubes of the new compressor, replace it quickly.

    (3) Checking for sealing

    ● Use nitrogen gas for the pressurized gas, and neveruse a refrigerant other than R410A. Also do not useoxygen or any flammable gas.

    (4) Evacuation

    ● Use a solenoid valve-installed vacuum pump sothat even if power is cut off in the middle of evacuationof air due to a power interruption, the valve will pre-vent the pump oil from flowing back.

    ● The equipment may be damaged if moisture remainsin the tubing, thus carry out the evacuation thoroughly.

    ● When using a vacuum pump with exhaust air volumemore than 25L/min. and ultimate vacuum pressurerate of 0.05Torr:

    Standard time for evacuation

    CAUTION ● Should the compressor malfunction, be sure to make the switch to a replacementcompressor as quickly as possible.

    ● Use only the tools indicated exclusively for R410A. ➞ See “12-3. ToolsSpecifically for R410A.”

    (5) Recharging

    ● Be sure to charge the specified amount ofrefrigerant in liquid state using the service portof the wide tube service valve. The properamount is listed on the unit's nameplate.

    When the entire amount cannot be charged all atonce, charge gradually while operating the unitin Cooling Operation.

    ● When charging with a refrigerant cylinder, usean electronic scale for charging refrigerant. Inthis case, if the volume of refrigerant in the cylin-der becomes less than 20% of the fully-chargedamount, the composition of the refrigerant startsto change. Thus, do not use the refrigerant ifthe amount in the charging cylinder is lessthan 20%.

    Also, charge the minimum necessary amount tothe charging cylinder before using it to chargethe air conditioning unit.

    Example:In case of charging refrigerant to a unit requiring0.76Kg using a capacity of a 10Kg cylinder, theminimum necessary amount for the cylinder is:

    0.76 + 10 × 0.20 = 2.76Kg

    For the remaining refrigerant, refer to theinstructions of the refrigerant manufacturer.

    ● If using a charging cylinder, transfer the speci-fied amount of liquid refrigerant from the refriger-ant cylinder to the charging cylinder.

    Prepare an evacuated charging cylinder before-hand.

    Do not use the refrigerant if the amount inthe charging cylinder is less than 20%.

    CAUTION Never charge a large amountof liquid refrigerant at once tothe unit. This may cause dam-age to the compressor.

    CAUTION ● To prevent the compositionof R410A from changing,never bleed the refrigerantgas into the atmospherewhile transferring the refrig-erant. (Fig. 3)

    12-6. In Case Refrigerant is Leaking

    (1) Detecting Leaks

    ● Use the detector for R410A to locate refrigerant leakpoints.

    (2) Recovering refrigerant

    ● Never release the gas to the atmosphere; recoverresidual refrigerant using the refrigerant recovery unitfor R410A, instead.

    ● Do not reuse the recovered refrigerant because itscomposition will have been altered.

    (3) Welding leaking points

    ● Confirm again that no residual refrigerant exists in theunit before starting welding.

    ● Weld securely using flux and wax for R410A.

    ● Prevent oxide film from forming inside the tubes utiliz-ing substitution with nitrogen (N2) in the refrigerantcircuit of the unit. Leave ends of tubes open duringwelding.

    (4) Checking for sealing

    ● Use nitrogen gas for the pressurized gas, and neveruse a refrigerant other than R410A. Also do not useoxygen or any flammable gas.

    (5) Evacuation

    ● Use a solenoid valve-installed vacuum pump sothat even if power is cut off in the middle of evacuationof air due to a power interruption, the valve will preventthe pump oil from flowing back.

    ● The equipment may be damaged if moisture remainsin the tubing
