7. Release valve (1) SV2 gas balance control
control This control is executed to balance the gas by opening SV2 while the compressor is
off, in order to decrease the activation load in the next compressor-ON time. This
control is individually executed by the master outdoor unit and each slave outdoor
unit.
1) Control conditions
When the compressor is switched from ON to OFF operation.
2) Contents of control
• The control point is exchanged by ΔP
(Pd pressure - Ps pressure) immediately before the compressor stops.
• When ΔP ≥ P1, SV2 is opened. After SV2 has been opened, SV2 is turned off
when ΔP< P2.
• When ΔP< P1, SV2 is closed.

(2) SV2 low pressure release control
This control is to prevent pressure drop during transient operation. This control is
individually executed by the master outdoor unit and each slave outdoor unit. This
control is executed as necessary except during stop time and thermostat-OFF time.

(3) SV2 compressor case bypass control
This control is to prevent oil dilution. This control is individually executed by the
master outdoor unit and each slave outdoor unit.
This control is executed during compressor-ON (except during oil level detection
control).
1) Contents of control
SV2 is opened when the following conditions are satisfied.
• Compressor status changes from OFF to ON.
• Oil recovery control is performed in cooling mode.
• SV2 is opened when TK3 sensor detects 2°C or lower, and closed when TK3
sensor detects 5°C or higher temperature during compressor-ON time.
• No. of outdoor fan waves is 3 waves or less during cooling compressor-ON.
8. Fixed-speed This control is to stop the fixed-speed compressor of each outdoor unit according to Pd
compressor pressure value. This control is individually executed by the master outdoor unit and each • No. 2 compressor
