GREE                                                          DC Inverter Multi VRF System II Service Manual

The ratio of slop for condensate 
water pipe is insufficient or the 
condensate water pipe is 
incorrectly connected. 
Reverse slop or inconsistent connection of condensate water pipe can hinder the 
smooth drainage and cause leakage of the IDU. 
The air channel is improperly 
fixed. 
The air channel will deform; vibration and noise occur during unit operating. 
The guide vane of air channel is 
not reasonably manufactured. 
Uneven air quantity allocation reduces the overall performance of the air 
conditioner. 
The refrigerant pipe or 
condensate water pipe does not 
meet the insulation requirement. 
Water can easily condensate and drip to damage the indoor decoration, or even 
trigger the protection mode of system due to overheating operation. 
The installation space for IDU is 
insufficient. 
Since there is a lack of space for maintenance and checking, indoor decoration 
might need to be damaged during such operation. 
The IDU or the location of the air 
outlet or return air inlet is not 
designed reasonably. 
The air outlet or return air inlet may be short-
circuited, thus affecting the air 
conditioning performance. 
The ODU is improperly installed. 
The ODU is difficult to be maintained; unit exhaust is not smooth, which reduces 
the heat exchanging performance or even prevent the 
system from normal 
operation; in addition, the cold and hot air for heat exchange and the noise may 
annoy people in surrounding areas. 
Power cables are incorrectly 
provided. 
Unit components may be damaged and potential safety hazard may occur. 
Control communication cables 
are incorrectly provided or 
improperly connected. 
The normal communication in the system fails or the control over IDUs and ODUs 
turn in a mess. 
Control communication cables 
are not properly protected. 
The communication cables are short-
circuited or disconnected, and the unit 
cannot be started up due to communication failure. 
Understand the special requirement (if any) for unit installation before implementation to ensure 
installation quality. Relevant installers must have corresponding engineering construction qualifications.     
Special type operators involved in the engineering implementation, such as welders, electricians, 
and refrigeration mechanics must have relevant operating licenses and are accredited with vocational 
qualification certification.     
2 Installation Materials Selection 
The materials, equipment and instruments used during air conditioning engineering construction 
must have certifications and test reports.    Products with fireproof requirements must be provided with 
fireproof inspection certificates and must meet national and relevant compulsory standards.  If 
environmentally-friendly materials are to be used as required by customers, all such materials must meet 
national environmental protection requirement and be provided with relevant certificates.     
2.1 Refrigerant piping 
a. Material requirement: Dephosphorization drawing copper pipe for air conditioners; 
b.Appearance requirement: The inner and outer surface of pipe should be smooth without pinhole, 
crack, peeling, blister, inclusion, copper powder, carbon deposition, rust, dirt or severe oxide film, 
and without obvious scratch, pit, spot and other defects. 
c.Test report: Certifications and quality test reports must be provided. 
d.The tensile strength must be at least 240 kgf/mm².
