Safety Precautions; Before Installation; Before Starting The Test Run - Mitsubishi Electric Mr.SLIM PUZ-ZM YKA Serie Installationshandbuch

1. Safety precautions

• A fter installation has been completed, check for refrigerant leaks. If refriger-
ant leaks into the room and comes into contact with the flame of a heater or
portable cooking range, poisonous gases will be released.
• D o not use means to accelerate the defrosting process or to clean, other
than those recommended by the manufacturer.
• T he appliance shall be stored in a room without continuously operating igni-
tion sources (for example: open flames, an operating gas appliance or an
operating electric heater).
• Do not pierce or burn.
• Be aware that refrigerants may not contain an odour.
/ Pipe-work shall be protected from physical damage.
• The installation of pipe-work shall be kept to a minimum.
• Compliance with national gas regulations shall be observed.
• Keep any required ventilation openings clear of obstruction.
/ D o not use low temperature solder alloy in case of brazing the refrigerant
pipes.

1.1. Before installation

Caution:
• D o not use the unit in an unusual environment. If the air conditioner is in-
stalled in areas exposed to steam, volatile oil (including machine oil), or
sulfuric gas, areas exposed to high salt content such as the seaside, or
areas where the unit will be covered by snow, the performance can be sig-
nificantly reduced and the internal parts can be damaged.
• D o not install the unit where combustible gases may leak, be produced,
en
flow, or accumulate. If combustible gas accumulates around the unit, fire or
explosion may result.
1.2. Before installation (relocation)
Caution:
• B e extremely careful when transporting or installing the units. Two or more
persons are needed to handle the unit, as it weighs 20 kg or more. Do not
grasp the packaging bands. Wear protective gloves to remove the unit from
the packaging and to move it, as you can injure your hands on the fins or
the edge of other parts.
• B e sure to safely dispose of the packaging materials. Packaging materials,
such as nails and other metal or wooden parts may cause stabs or other
injuries.
1.3. Before electric work
Caution:
• B e sure to install circuit breakers. If not installed, electric shock may result.
• F or the power lines, use standard cables of sufficient capacity. Otherwise,
a short circuit, overheating, or fire may result.
• W hen installing the power lines, do not apply tension to the cables. If the
connections are loosened, the cables can snap or break and overheating or
fire may result.
1.4. Before starting the test run
Caution:
• T urn on the main power switch more than 12 hours before starting opera-
tion. Starting operation just after turning on the power switch can severely
damage the internal parts. Keep the main power switch turned on during the
operation season.
• B efore starting operation, check that all panels, guards and other protective
parts are correctly installed. Rotating, hot, or high voltage parts can cause
injuries.
1.5. Using R32 refrigerant air conditioners
Caution:
• Use C1220 copper phosphorus, for copper and copper alloy seamless
pipes, to connect the refrigerant pipes. Make sure the insides of the pipes
are clean and do not contain any harmful contaminants such as sulfuric
compounds, oxidants, debris, or dust. Use pipes with the specified thick-
ness. (Refer to 4.1.) Note the following if reusing existing pipes that carried
R22 refrigerant.
- Replace the existing flare nuts and flare the flared sections again.
- Do not use thin pipes. (Refer to 4.1.)
• Store the pipes to be used during installation indoors and keep both ends
of the pipes sealed until just before brazing. (Leave elbow joints, etc. in
their packaging.) If dust, debris, or moisture enters the refrigerant lines, oil
deterioration or compressor breakdown may result.
• Use ester oil, ether oil, alkylbenzene oil (small amount) as the refrigeration
oil applied to the flared sections. If mineral oil is mixed in the refrigeration
oil, oil deterioration may result.
