Installation Conditions; Before Installation - Toshiba RAV-GM2241AT8-E Installationsanleitung

 Refrigerant piping
R32 refrigerant
CAUTION
• Incomplete flaring may cause refrigerant gas leakage.
• Do not re-use flares. Use new flares to prevent refrigerant gas leakage.
• Use flare nuts that are included with the unit. Using different flare nuts may cause refrigerant gas leakage.
Use the following item for the refrigerant piping.
Material : Seamless phosphorous deoxidized copper pipe.
ø6.35, ø9.52, ø12.7 Wall thickness 0.8 mm or more
ø15.88 Wall thickness 1.0 mm or more
ø19.1 Wall thickness 1.2 mm or more
ø28.6 (half hard) Wall thickness 1.0 mm or more
REQUIREMENT
When the refrigerant pipe is long, provide support brackets at intervals of 2.5 to 3 m to clamp the refrigerant pipe.
Otherwise, abnormal sound may be generated.

Installation conditions

 Before installation
Be sure to prepare to the following items before
installation.
Length of refrigerant pipe
Length of Height difference
refrigerant
(Indoor-outdoor)
pipe

to indoor/
unit: unit:

Upper Lower
unit
Addition of refrigerant at
the local site is
unnecessary for
refrigerant pipe lengths
up to 30 m. If the
5 to 60 m 30 m 30 m
refrigerant pipe length
exceeds 30 m, add
refrigerant in the amount
given in "Charging
additional refrigerant".
* Caution during addition of refrigerant.
Charge the refrigerant accurately. Overcharging
may cause serious trouble with the compressor.
• Do not connect a refrigerant pipe that is shorter than
5 m.
This may cause a malfunction of the compressor or
other devices.
Airtight test
1. Before starting an airtight test, further tighten the
spindle valves on the gas and liquid sides.
2. Pressurize the pipe with nitrogen gas charged from
the service port to the design pressure (4.15 Mpa) to
conduct an airtight test.
3. After the airtight test is completed, evacuate the
nitrogen gas.
Air purge
• To purge air, use a vacuum pump.
• Do not use refrigerant charged in the outdoor unit to
purge air. (The air purge refrigerant is not contained
in the outdoor unit.)
Electrical wiring
• Be sure to fix the power wires and indoor/outdoor
connecting wires with clamps so that they do not
come into contact with the cabinet, etc.
Earthing
WARNING
Item
Make sure that proper earthing is provided.
Improper earthing may cause an electric shock. For
details on how to check earthing, contact the dealer
who installed the air conditioner or a professional
installation company.
• Proper earthing can prevent charging of electricity on
the outdoor unit surface due to the presence of a
high frequency in the frequency converter (inverter)
of the outdoor unit, as well as prevent electric shock.
If the outdoor unit is not properly earthed, you may
be exposed to an electric shock.
• Be sure to connect the earth wire. (grounding
work)
Incomplete earthing can cause an electric shock. Do
not connect earth wires to gas pipes, water pipes,
lightning rods or earth wires for telephone wires.
Test run
Turn on the leakage breaker at least 12 hours before
starting a test run to protect the compressor during
startup.
CAUTION
Incorrect installation work may result in a malfunction
or complaints from customers.
