2.1.7 Removing Compressors for MC1 and MC2
(RAS-24FSG1, RAS-30FSG1, RAS-24FS5 and RAS-30FS5)
Do not expose the inner refrigeration cycle to the atmosphere for a long period of time when
replacing a compressor to protect the cycle from mixing water or foreign particles.
If exposed for a long time, seal pipe ends using caps or tape certainly.
Remove the caps for the compressor just before replacing the compressor.
Check to ensure each terminal No. when connecting compressor power wires.
If incorrectly connected, the compressor will fail due to reverse rotation.
Before starting this work, collect refrigerant into a cylinder from the cycle.
