(2) Installation of Outdoor Unit
AMC Series
As condensing temperature rises, evaporating temperature rises and cooling capacity drops. In order to achieve
maximum cooling capacity, the location selected for outdoor unit should fulll the following requirements:
• Install the condensing (outdoor) unit in a way such that hot air distributed by the outdoor condensing unit
cannot be drawn in again (as in the case of short circuit of hot discharge air). Allow sufcient space for main-
tenance around the unit
• Ensure that there is no obstruction of air ow into or out of the unit. Remove obstacles which block air intake
or discharge.
• The location must be well ventilated, so that the unit can draw and distribute plenty of air thus lowering the
condensing temperature.
• A place capable of bearing the weight of the outdoor unit and isolating noise and vibration.
• A place protected from direct sunlight. Otherwise use an awning for protection, if necessary.
• A place where the hot air discharge and operating sound level will not annoy the neighbours.
• The location must not be susceptible to dust or oil mist.
Installation Clearance
• Outdoor units must be installed such that there is no short circuit of the hot discharge air or obstruction to
smooth air ow.
CAUTION : If the condensing unit is operated in an atmosphere containing oils (including machine
oils), salt (coastal area), sulphide gas (near hot spring, oil renery plant), such substances may lead
to failure of the unit.
