8. 4. Installing insulation
• Install insulation material after conducting the “8.1 Sealing Test”.
• To prevent condensation and water droplets, install insulation material on the refrig-
erant pipe.
• Refer to the table to determine the thickness of the insulation material.
• If the outdoor unit is installed at a level that is higher than the indoor unit, the water
that has condensed in the 3-way valve of the outdoor unit could travel to the indoor
unit.
Therefore, use putty in the space between the pipe and the insulation to prevent
the entry of water.

please strengthen heat insulation of refrigerant pipe.
8. 5. Filling with putty
Putty
Putty
Insulation
Fill the piping holes and wiring holes with
putty (fi eld supplied) to avoid any gap. If
the outdoor unit is installed at a level that
is higher than the indoor unit, the water
that has condensed in the 3-way valve of
the outdoor unit could travel to the indoor
unit. Therefore, use putty in the space
between the pipe and the insulation to
prevent the entry of water to the indoor
units.
CAUTION
Seal the pipe route hole with putty (Locally purchased) such that there are no gaps.
Small insects or animals that are trapped in the outdoor unit may cause a short circuit
in the electrical component box.
9. TEST RUN
9. 1. Pre-test run check items
Before the test operation, check the following items.
1
Is there a gas leakage? (At pipe connections {fl ange connections and brazed
areas})
2
Is the system charged with the specifi ed volume of refrigerant?
3
Is the refrigerant circuit address correct?
4
Is a breaker installed at the power supply cable of every outdoor unit?
5
Are the cables connected to the terminals without looseness, and in accordance with
the specifi cations?
6
Are the initial settings of the switches of the outdoor unit correctly confi gured?
7
Is the 3-way valve of the outdoor unit open? (suction gas pipe, discharge gas
pipe and liquid pipe)
8
Is power supplied to the crank case heater for more than 12 hours? Electricity
current in short period of time may result in compressor damage.
9
Are all the indoor units within the same coolant system connected to the power?
Operating indoor units which are not connected to the power may result in mal-
functions.
After checking that the above items are all in order, refer to “9.2 Test
operation method” to test operation of the unit.
If there are problems, adjust immediately and recheck.
9. 2. Test operation method
Be sure to confi gure test run settings only when the outdoor unit has stopped
operating.
• Depending on the communication status between the indoor and outdoor units,
it may take several minutes for the system to start operating after settings for the
test run are complete.
• After the test run settings are complete, all the outdoor units and the connected
indoor units will start operating. Room temperature control will not activate during
test operation (continuous operation).
• If a knocking sound can be heard in the liquid compression of the compressor,
stop the unit immediately and then energize the crank case heater for a suffi cient
length of time (more than 12 hours) before restarting the operation.
Perform test operation for each refrigerant system.
You can set “cooling test run" or “heating test run” with the push button on the outdoor
unit PC board.
