General
System
LG single zone four-way ceiling cassette system comprises of a 
single frame outdoor unit connected to a single indoor unit with a 
single refrigerant circuit. An LG single zone four-way ceiling cassette 
is a system that can operate in either cooling or heating mode. 
The system is capable of changing mode within a maximum time 
of three (3) minutes to ensure indoor temperature can be properly 
maintained. LG components are manufactured in a facility registered 
to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, which is a set of standards applying 
to environmental protection set by the International organization 
for Standardization (ISO). The system components comply with 
CSA Standard for Safety and bear the CSA label. Wiring in these 
units are in accordance with the national Electrical Code (NEC). 
LG single zone four-way ceiling cassette systems have published 
performance ratings certified by AHRI (Air-Conditioning, Heating, 
and Refrigeration Institute) and are listed in the AHRI Standard 210 / 
240 certified product directory.
Outdoor Unit
The outdoor units have sound levels not exceeding 56 dB(A) tested 
in an anechoic chamber under ISO Standard 3745.
Indoor Unit
The indoor units have sound ratings no higher than 56 dB(A) as 
tested per ISO Standard 3745.
Temperature Ranges
18,000, 24,000, 36,000, 42,000, and 48,000 Btu/h Ceiling 
Cassette Operating Ranges
• Operating range for outdoor units of 5°F to +118°F (DB) for cooling 
(Cooling range can be extended from 5°F down to -4°F using the 
Low Ambient Wind Baffle Kit [sold separately]).
• Operating range for outdoor units of -13°F to +64°F (WB) for heating.
• Operating ranges for indoor units of 57°F to 77°F (WB) for cooling; 
59°F to 81°F (DB) for heating.
• Indoor unit temperature setting range of 65°F to 86°F (DB) for 
cooling; 61°F to 86°F (DB) for heating.
Casing / Frame
Outdoor Unit
The outdoor condensing unit case is constructed from pre-coated 
metal (PCM) that has been tested in accordance with ASTM B-117 
salt spray procedure for a minimum of 1,000 hours. Case has a 
removable panel to allow access to major internal components, and 
legs to secure the unit during installation.
Indoor Unit
The indoor unit case is constructed of a galvanized steel plate 
designed to recess in the ceiling, and has a surface mounted 
concentric grille on the bottom of the unit. Unit has four supply 
air outlets and one return air inlet. The supply air outlet has four-
directional slot diffusers, each equipped with an independent 
oscillating motorized guide 
vane to change airflow 
direction. A guide vane 
algorithm sequentially 
changes the predominant 
discharge airflow direction 
in counterclockwise pattern, 
or can be used to lock each 
guide vane independently 
in a field-adjusted fixed 
position. The four vanes can 
be individually adjusted from 
the wired remote controller to 
customize the airflow pattern 
for the conditioned space. 
A setting in the cooling and 
heating modes can cycle 
the vanes up and down 
for uniform / random air 
distribution.
The smart dual vane (for 24,000 Btu/h ~ 48,000 Btu/h indoor units 
only) moves the air dynamically and evenly distributes air to every 
corner of large space. The dual vane provides optimized angle and 
provides conditioned air without feeling the draft.
A required architectural grille is sold as a separate required 
accessory. The four-way grille is off-white acrylonitrile butadiene 
styrene (ABS) polymeric resin with a tapered trim edge. 
The unit has capability of sensing both temperature and humidity to 
avoid over cooling and maximizing comfort using Humidity sensor 
(sold separately).
Refrigerant System
The system is designed for use with R410A refrigerant, and consists 
of a single refrigeration circuit. The refrigeration circuit is pressure-
tested at the factory and shipped with a holding charge of helium 
gas. The outdoor unit is provided with factory installed components, 
including a refrigerant strainer, accumulator, four-way reversing 
valve, electronic expansion valve (EEV), high and low side charging 
ports, service valves, and interconnecting piping.  All refrigerant 
lines from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit are field-installed and 
must be insulated separately. LUU420HHV and LUU480HHV include 
a sub-cooled heat exchanger, vapor injection, and vapor bypass 
circuit.
Compressors
All of the outdoor units are equipped with one hermetically sealed, 
digitally controlled, inverter-driven R1 scroll compressor to modulate 
capacity (modulation in 1 Hz increments). Teflon coated bearings, 
overcurrent protection and vibration isolation are integrated with the 
compressor.
