Baffle
plate
It is recommended to use baffle plates for model
CL1852. The baffle plates are not normally required for
the other models.
When the outdoor unit is installed in a position exposed
to strong wind (like seasonal winds with low air
temperature in winter), baffle plates must be installed on
the outdoor unit. (Fig. 2-5)
Air discharge
This unit is designed so that the fan of the outdoor unit
runs at low speed when the air conditioner is operated at
low outdoor air temperatures. When the outdoor unit is
exposed to strong wind, the system pressure drops
because of the freeze protector.

5. Address Switches
If you are installing one indoor unit or one group of
indoor units in the same room, it is necessary for you
to assign each unit its own address so that each can
be operated by its own remote control unit. You assign
the addresses by matching the switch position of each
indoor unit with the switch position of its remote control
unit. The switch of the remote control unit is shown in
Fig. 5-1.

6-1. General Precautions on Wiring
(7) Regulations on wire diameters differ from locality
to locality. For field wiring rules, please refer to
your LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES (ex. National
Electric Code: ANSI/NFPA70) before beginning.
You must ensure that installation complies with all
relevant rules and regulations.
(1) Before wiring, confirm the rated voltage of the unit
as shown on its nameplate, then carry out the
wiring closely following the wiring diagram.
(2) Provide a power outlet to be used exclusively for
each unit, and a power supply disconnect and
circuit breaker for overcurrent protection should
be provided in the exclusive line.
(8) To prevent malfunction of the air conditioner
caused by electrical noise, care must be taken
when wiring as follows:
(3) To prevent possible hazards from insulation
failure, the unit must be grounded.
● The inter-unit control wiring and the remote control
wiring (option) should be wired apart from the inter-
unit power wiring.
(4) Each wiring connection must be done in accor-
dance with the wiring system diagram. Wrong
wiring may cause the unit to misoperate or
become damaged.
(5) Do not allow wiring to touch the refrigerant tubing,
compressor, or any moving parts of the fan.
(6) Unauthorized changes in the internal wiring can
be very dangerous. The manufacturer will accept
no responsibility for any damage or misoperation
that occurs as a result of such unauthorized
changes.

7. How to Process Tubing
Deburring
The narrow tubing side is connected by flare nut, and
the wide tubing side is connected by brazing.
Before
After
7-1. Use of the Flaring Method
Many of the conventional split system air conditioners
employ the flaring method to connect refrigerant tubes
which run between indoor and outdoor units. In this
method, the copper tubes are flared at each end and
connected with flare nuts.
7-2. Flaring Procedure with a Flare Tool
(1) Cut the copper tube to the required length with a
tube cutter. It is recommended to cut about
0126_M_I
Fig. 7-1
12 – 20 in. longer than the estimated tubing length.
(2) Remove burrs at the end of the copper tube with
a tube reamer or file. This process is important
and should be done carefully to make a good
flare. (Fig. 7-1)
Copper
tubing
NOTE
Reamer
When reaming, hold the tube end downward and be
sure that no copper scraps fall into the tube. (Fig. 7-2)
(3) Remove the flare nut from the unit and mount it
on the copper tube.
0127_M_I
Fig. 7-2
(4) Make a flare at the end of copper tube with a flare
tool.* (Fig. 7-3)
®
*Use “RIGID ” or equivalent.
NOTE
Flare nut
A good flare should have the following characteristics:
Copper
tubing
● inside surface is glossy and smooth.
● edge is smooth.
● tapered sides are of uniform length.

7-3. Precaution before Connecting Tubes Tightly
Fig. 7-3
(1) Apply a sealing cap or water-proof tape to pre-
vent dust or water from entering the tubes before
they are used.
(2) Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching sur-
faces of the flare and union before connecting
them together. This helps to reduce gas leaks.
(Fig. 7-4)
Apply refrigerant
lubricant here and here
0129_M_I

(3) For proper connection, align the union tube and
flare tube with each other, then screw in the flare
nut lightly at first to obtain a smooth match.
(Fig. 7-5)
● Adjust the shape of the narrow and wide tubes
using a tube bender at the installation site and
connect them to the each tubing side valve using
a flare nut.

● Replace air inside the tube with nitrogen gas to
prevent copper oxide film from forming during the
brazing process.
Spanner
Indoor unit
● Do not allow the tubing to get too hot during the
brazing process.

Important
Insulation
Because capillary tubing is installed in the outdoor unit,
both the wide and narrow tubes of this air conditioner
become cold. Therefore, to prevent heat loss and wet
floors due to dripping of condensation water, both
tubes must be well insulated with proper insulation
material. The thickness of the insulation material
should be a min. 8 mm (5/16").
Thickness:
Min. 5/16 in.

7-7. Taping the Tubes
(1) At this time, the refrigerant tubes (and electrical
wiring if local codes permit) should be taped with
armoring tape in 1 bundle. To prevent the con-
densation from overflowing the drain pan, keep
the drain hose separate from the refrigerant
tubing.
(2) Wrap the armoring tape from the bottom of the
outdoor unit to the top of the tubing where it
enters the wall. As you wrap the tubing, overlap
half of each previous tape turn. (Fig. 7-9)
Clamp
Drain hose
Insulated tubes
(3) Clamp the tubing bundle to the wall, using 1
clamp about every 3 feet.
NOTE
Do not wind the armoring tape too tightly since this will
decrease the heat insulation effect. Also ensure that
the condensation drain hose splits away from the
bundle and drips clear of the unit and the tubing.

8. Air Purging
Indoor unit
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system have
undesirable effects as indicated below. Therefore, they
must be purged completely.
● pressure in the system rises
● operating current rises
Outdoor unit
● cooling (or heating) efficiency drops
● moisture in the air may freeze and block capillary tubing
● water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigerant
system
■ Air Purging with a Vacuum Pump (for Test Run)
(1) Check that each tube (both narrow and wide tubes)
between the indoor and outdoor units have been
properly connected and all wiring for the test run has
been completed.Note that both narrow and wide tube
service valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at
this stage.

service valve. (Fig. 8-1)
Be sure to use a manifold valve
for air purging. If it is not
available, use a stop valve for
this purpose. The “Hi” knob of
the manifold valve must always
be kept closed.
CAUTION

(8) With the hex wrench, turn the wide tube service valve
stem counter-clockwise to fully open the valve.
(9) Turn the narrow tube service valve stem counter-
clockwise to fully open the valve.
(10) Loosen the vacuum hose connected to the wide tube
service port slightly to release the pressure. Then,
remove the hose.
(11) Replace the bonnet and flare nut on the wide tube
service port and fasten the flare nut securely with an
adjustable wrench or box wrench or box wrench.
Next, mount the valve cap and tighten it with a torque
wrench (the cap needs to be tightened with the torque
of 170 ibs.·in. (200 kg·cm)). This process is very
important to prevent gas from leaking from the
system.
(12) Test run the air conditioner. (See next page.)
(13) While the air conditioner is running, apply liquid soap
to check for any gas leaks around the service valves
or caps.
(14) If there is no leakage, stop the air conditioner.
(15) Wipe off the soap on the tubing.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump and the air
conditioner is ready for actual operation.
