to avoid damaging or scratching of the unit.
When moving the unit during or after unpacking,
be sure to avoid putting any pressure or strength
on the refrigerant piping, drain pipe or the other
plastic parts, which may damage the unit.
Before installing the unit, be sure to check the
type of refrigerant to be used is R22 or R410A
which should be same as outdoor unit.

4.2 Check if the unit is horizontally level
Make sure that the unit is installed level using a
spirit level or a plastic tube filled with water. (Refer
to Fig. 4)
(One thing to watch out for in particular is if the
unit is installed so that the slope is not in the
direction of the drain pipe, which might cause
condensate water leaking.)
Fig. 4 Check Unit Level
4.3 Install the suspension bolts
Shall ensure the unit being in horizontal level and
installed firmly. Install anchor bolt to fix unit
securely if necessary.
5 REFRIGERANT PIPING WORK
Execute insulation completely on both sides of the
gas piping and the liquid piping. Otherwise,
condensate water may be formed and dropped
down.
Please use the insulation materials that can
withstand temperature of at least 120°C. Reinforce
the insulation on the refrigerant piping according
to the installation environment. Otherwise,
condensate water may form on the surface of the
insulation.
Please follow the below items.
Apply ester oil or ether oil to the flare section
(internal and external surface) when using a flare
connection.
Only the flare nuts included with the unit can be
used. Using different flare nuts may cause
refrigerant leakage.
To prevent dust, moisture or other contaminant
from infiltrating the piping, either pinch the end or
cover it with tape.
Do not allow anything other than the designated
refrigerant to get mixed into the refrigerant circuit,
such as air, etc.
When brazing the refrigerant piping, perform
nitrogen replacement first, or perform brazing
while feeding nitrogen into the refrigerant piping,
and finally connect the indoor unit using the flare
connections.
When brazing a pipe while feeding nitrogen inside
the pipe, make sure to set the nitrogen pressure to
0.02MPa (0.2kgf/cm
2
) around.
Do not use flux when brazing refrigerant piping.
Therefore, use the phosphor copper brazing filler
metal (BCuP) which does not require flux.
If chlorine or fluoric based flux is used, it will cause
pipe corrosion and contamination of refrigerant oil
5.1 Connect the piping
Be sure to use both a spanner and torque wrench
together, as shown in Fig. 5, when connecting or
disconnecting pipes to/from the unit.
Fig. 5 Piping Connection
Refer to Table 1 for the tightening torque.

5.2 AIR TIGHT TEST
Air tight test should be done after the piping
connection completed.
Operation method:
(a) Fill in dry nitrogen into the refrigerant piping
and let the pressure slowly rise to 4.3MPa.
(b) The specified pressure should be maintained
for 10 minutes, and then soapy water or other
foaming agent are applied to the connection
positions, such as brazing seams, screwed
joints ,etc. for leakage detection.
(c) If it has leakage, then tighten or braze the
leakage point.
(d) After it has been confirmed that the piping
does not leak, the dwelling test should be
performed. Fill in the dry nitrogen again and
let the pressure slowly rise to 4.3MPa.
(e) The pressure needs to be maintained for 6
hours and then record the pressure value
through the manometer. 24 hours later, record
the pressure again.
(f) No pressure drop after 24 hours means it has
no leakage. Otherwise, the leaking point must
be found and mended. Then repeat the above
(d) and (e) steps.
Gas pressure is relevant to ambient temperature.
So temperature should be considered when judging
the pressure variation. The relationship of pressure
and temperature is shown below.

Do not connect indoor units with outdoor units
during the air test process. Otherwise, it may result
in nitrogen gas emtering into the outdoor unit.
5.3 Insulate the piping
After checking it has no leakage, be sure to insulate
the connection parts of both liquid and and gas
pipe with sufficient thickness heat-resistant
polythylene materials.
Be sure to insulate the field piping all the way to
the piping connection inside the unit. Any exposed
piping may casue condensate water or being
scalded if touched.
6 DRAIN PIPING WORK
YDVC series indoor unit drain pipe is the free
drainage.
Be sure the drain pipe works well and smothly
before making the duct connection. (It is not easy
to check the drain pipe when the duct has been
connected.)
6.1 Install the drain pipe
Make sure the drain works properly.
Diameter of the drain pipe should be larger than or
equal to the one of the connecting pipe. (drain pipe
connection diameter of indoor unit is Ф20)
Make a water trap on the drain pipe outlet from
indoor unit. The water trap should meet below
requirements. (A, B 50mm)
If central drain pipe has been used, keep the drain
pipe short and sloping downwards at a gradient of
at least 2/100 to prevent air pockets from forming.
(Refer to Fig. 6)
Fig. 6 Central Drain Pipe

accumulating.
When connecting the drain pipe, effective method
should be carried out to guarantee no leakage on
each connection area.
To avoid condensate water accumulating on the
drain pipe and dropping down, the drain pipe
should be insulated.
6.2 Check the drain pipe
After piping work is finished, check if drainage
flows smoothly.
Free drainage
Gradually insert approximately 1000 ml clean
water into the drain pan to check drainage
status.
The electric wiring works should be performed by
specially qualified electricians.
If no electricians in site, please flow the above
steps to do drainage confirmation after the system
test running.
7 INSTALLING THE DUCT
Materials for duct installation are supplied in the
field.
Refer to Fig. 7 to connect the duct.
Fig. 7 Duct Connection
Wrap both the inlet-side and outlet-side flange and
the duct connection area with aluminium tape for
something similar to prevent air escaping.
Please attach an air filter inside the air passage on
the inlet-side. (Use an air filter which duct
collection efficiency (in a gravimetric technique) is
higher than 50%)
Be sure to insulate the duct to prevent condensate
water from forming. (Material: glass wool or
polyethylene foam, above 25mm thickness)
The air outlet height should be appropriate and
cannot be positioned at the place where it directly
blows the people for a long period.
To reduce vibration and noise, it is better to use
flexible connection to connect the air inlet and
outlet duct with indoor unit.
