• The sleeve flare processing of pipes with a diameter of 15.9 mm is difficult. Use the following socket as an optional accessory to connect pipes.
NoteBe sure to use piping materials withstanding a pressure of 12.3 MPa.• Use a different elbow sold as an optional accessory if the bending
radius needs to be reduced. This is particularly important for the bending portions of pipes with a diameter of 15.9 mm.
3. SELECTION OF LOCATIONSelect a location for installation that meets the following conditions. Get the customer’s permission.
1. There is no danger of fire due to leakage of inflammable gas.
2. Select the location of the unit in such a way that neither the dis-charged air nor the sound generated by the unit disturb anyone.
3. The foundation is strong enough to support the weight of the unit and the floor is flat to prevent vibration and noise generation.
4. The piping length between the outdoor unit and the indoor unit may not exceed the allowable piping length. (Refer to “6. REFRIGERANT PIPING”)
5. Locations where the unit’s suction vent and outlet vent do not gen-erally face the wind. Wind blowing directly into the suction or outlet vents will interfere with the unit’s operation.If necessary, install some kind of obstruction to block the wind.
6. The space around the unit is adequate for servicing and the min-imum space for air inlet and air outlet is available. (See the “Installation Space Examples” for the minimum space requirements.)
Installation Space Examples• The installation space requirement shown in the following figure is
a reference for cooling operation when the outdoor temperature is 35°C. If the design outdoor temperature exceeds 35°C or the heat load exceeds maximum capacity in all the outdoor unit, take an even large space on the intake shown in the following figure.
• During installation, install the units using the most appropriate of the patterns shown in the following figure for the location in ques-tion, taking into consideration human traffic and wind.
• If the number of units installed is more than that shown in the pat-tern in the following figure, install the units so there are no short circuits.
• As regards space in front of the unit, consider the space needed for the local refrigerant piping when installing the units.
• If the work conditions in the following figure do not apply, contact your dealer or Daikin directly.
NOTE) For Patterns 1 and 2• Wall height for front side no higher than 1500 mm.• Wall height on the suction side no higher than 500 mm.• Wall height for sides – no limit.• If the height is exceeded the above, calculate h1 and h2 shown
in the figure below, and add h1/2 to the service space of front side and h2/2 to the service space of suction side.
CAUTION
1. An inverter air conditioner may cause electronic noise generated from AM broadcasting. Examine where to install the main air con-ditioner and electric wires, keeping proper distances away from stereo equipment, personal computers, etc.Particularly for locations with weak reception, ensure there is a distance of at least 3 meters for indoor remote controllers, place power wiring and transmission wiring in conduits, and ground the conduits.
2. If condensate may drip on downstairs (or walkway) depending on the floor condition, take a measure such as the installation of cen-tral drain pan kit (sold separately).

3. The refrigerant R744 itself is nontoxic, nonflammable and is safe. If the refrigerant should leak however, its concentration may exceed the allowable limit depending on room size. Due to this it could be necessary to take measures against leakage. See “Engineering Data” for details.
4. When installing in a locations where there is heavy snowfall, implement the following snow measures.• Ensure the base is high enough that intakes are not clogged
by snow.• Remove the rear intake grille to prevent snow from accumulat-
ing on the fins.
4. HANDING THE UNIT1. Decide on the transportation route.
2. If a forklift is to be used, pass the forklift arms through the large openings on the bottom of the unit.
If hanging the unit, use a cloth sling to prevent damaging the unit. Keeping the following points in mind, hang the unit following the procedure shown in the following figure.• Use a sling sufficiently strong to hold the mass of the unit.• Use 2 belts of at least 8m long.• Place extra cloth or boards in the locations where the casing
comes in contact with the sling to prevent damage.• Hoist the unit making sure it is being lifted at its center of gravity.
3. After installation, remove the transportation clasp attached to the large openings.
NoteApply a filler cloth on a fork to prevent coating of the bottom frame from coming off and rust from occurring when bringing in the unit with anti-corrosion treatment type using a forklift.
5. PLACING THE UNIT• Make sure the unit is installed level on a sufficiently strong base to
prevent vibration and noise.• The base should be bigger around than the width of the unit’s legs
(66 mm), and should support the unit.If protective rubber is to be attached, attach it to the whole face of the base.
• The height of the base should be at least 150mm from the floor.• Secure the unit to its base using foundation bolts. (Use four com-
mercially available M12-type foundation bolts, nuts, and washers.)• The foundation bolts should be inserted 20 mm.
Note• When installing on a roof, make sure the roof floor is strong
enough and be sure to water-proof all work.• Make sure the area around the machine drains properly by setting
up drainage grooves around the foundation.Drain water is sometimes discharged from the outdoor unit when it is running.
6. REFRIGERANT PIPINGTo Piping Work ContractorsDo not use flux at the time of brazing and connecting refrigerant pipes. Use phosphorous copper brazing filler metal (BCuP-2), which does not require flux. Chlorine-based flux causes piping corrosion. Furthermore, if fluoride is contained, the flux will have adverse influ-ences on the refrigerant piping line, such as the deterioration of refrigerating machine oil.
6-1 Selection of piping material and Refrigerant branching kit
• Refer to the following table for pipe size section.• The following types of refrigerant pipes are available.
Material: Phosphorus deoxidized seamless copper pipe (C1220T-1/2H or C1220T-H)
Pipe wall thickness: Product withstanding 12.3 MPa
⟨Pipe wall thickness examples⟩ (length: mm)
• Use only pipes which are clean inside and outside and which do not accumulate harmful sulfur, oxidants, dirt, cutting oils, mois-ture, or other contamination. (Foreign materials inside pipes including oils for fabrication must be 30mg/10m or less.)
• For piping work, follow the maximum tolerated length, difference in height, and length after a branch indicated.
• The refrigerant branching kit sold as an optional accessory is required for the branching of piping. Select the kit according to the following “Refrigerant branch kit selection”.

6-2 Installation toolsBe sure to use dedicated tools so that the air conditioner will maintain proper pressure resistance and the contamination of impurities will be prevented.Compatibility with conventional tools (other refrigerants)
6-3 Protection against contamination when installing pipes
Protect the piping to prevent moisture, dirt, dust, etc. from entering the piping.
NoteExercise special caution to prevent dirt or dust when passing piping through holes in walls and when passing pipe edges to the exterior.
6-4 Pipe connection• Be sure to perform nitrogen permutation or nitrogen blow when
brazing.
Brazing without performing nitrogen permutation or nitrogen blow into the piping will create large quantities of oxidized film on the inside of the pipes, adversely affecting valves and compressors in the refrigerating system and preventing normal operation.
• The pressure regulator for the nitrogen released when doing the brazing should be set to 0.02 MPa (about 0.2kg/cm
2:Enough to
feel a slight breeze on your cheek).
NoteDo not use anti-oxidants when brazing the pipe joints.Residue can clog pipes and break equipment.
6-5 Connecting the refrigerant piping1. Derection to bring out the pipes
The local interunit piping can be connected either forward or to the sides (taken out through the bottom) as shown in the following figure.When passing out through the bottom, use the knock hole in the bottom frame.
Precautions when knocking out knock holes• Open knock hole in the base frame by drilling the 4 concave
around it with a 6mm bit.
• Be sure to avoid damaging the casing• After knocking out the holes, we recommend you remove any
burrs and paint them using the repair paint to prevent rusting.• When passing electrical wiring through the knock holes, protect
the wiring with a conduit or bushings, making sure not to damage the wiring.
2. Removing Pinch PipingIn the case of connecting refrigerant piping to the outdoor unit, remove the span piping as in the following procedure.Refer to “Operation method of shutoff valve” for handling of the shutoff valve.

7. FIELD WIRINGTo Electric Engineering Contractors• Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker. The product incorpo-
rates inverter equipment. In order to prevent the malfunctioning of the earth leakage breaker, make sure that the earth leakage breaker withstands harmonic interference.
• Do not operate the air conditioner until refrigerant piping work is completed, or otherwise the compressor will malfunction.
• Do not remove any electrical components such as thermistors or sensors when connecting power supply wires or transmission wires. The compressor may malfunction if the air conditioner is operated with such electrical components removed.
CAUTION
• All field wiring and components must be installed by a licensed electrician and must comply with relevant local and national reg-ulations.
• Be sure to use a dedicated power circuit. Never use a power sup-ply shared by another appliance.
• Never install a phase advancing capacitor. As this unit is equipped with an inverter, installing a phase advancing capacitor will not only deteriorate power factor improvement effect, but also may cause capacitor abnormal heating accident due to high-frequency waves.
• Only proceed with wiring work after blocking off all power.• Always ground wires in accordance with relevant local and
national regulations.• This machine includes an inverter device. Connect earth and
leave charge to eliminate the impact on other devices by reducing noise generated from the inverter device and to prevent leaked current from being charged in the outer hull of the product.
• Do not connect the ground wire to gas pipes, sewage pipes, light-ning rods, or telephone ground wires.Gas pipes: can explode or catch fire if there is a gas leak.Sewage pipes: no grounding effect is possible if hard plastic pip-ing is used.Telephone ground wires and lightning rods: dangerous when struck by lightning due to abnormal rise in electrical potential in the grounding.
• Be sure to install an earth leakage circuit breaker.This unit uses an inverter, so install the earth leakage circuit breaker that be capable of handling high harmonics in order to prevent malfunctioning of the earth leakage circuit breaker itself.
• Earth leakage circuit breaker which are especially for protecting ground-faults should be used in conjunction with main switch or fuse for use with wiring.
• Electrical wiring must be done in accordance with the wiring dia-grams and the description herein.
• Do not operate until refrigerant piping work is completed.(If operated before complete the piping work, the compressor may be broken down.)
• Never remove thermistor, sensor or etc. when connecting power wiring and transmission wiring.(If operated with thermistor, sensor or etc. removed, the compres-sor may be broken down.)
• This product have reversed phase protection detector that only works when the power is turned on. If there exists black out or the power goes on and off which the product is operating, attach a reversed phase protection circuit. Running the product in reversed phase may break the compressor and other parts.
• Attach the power wire securely. Introducing power with a missing N-phase or with a mistaken N-phase will break the unit.
• Never connect the power supply in reversed phase. The unit can not operate normally in reversed phase.If you connect in reversed phase, replace two of the three phases.
• Make sure the electrical unbalance ratio is no greater than 2%. If it is larger than this, the unit’s lifespan will be reduced.If the ratio exceeds 4%, the unit will shut down and an malfunction code will be displayed on the indoor remote controller.
• Connect the wire securely using designated wire and fix it with attached clamp without applying external pressure on the termi-nal parts (terminal for power wiring, terminal for transmission wir-ing and earth terminal).
7-1 Wiring Connection Example for Whole System
Note• Use conduit for power supply wiring.• Make sure the weak electric wiring (i.e. for the remote controller,
between units, etc.) and the power wiring do not pass near each other, keeping them at least 50 mm apart.Proximity may cause electrical interference, malfunctions, and breakage.
• Be sure to connect the power wiring to the power wiring terminal block and secure it as described in “7-3 Transmission Wiring Connection Procedure”.
• Transmission wiring should be secured as described in “7-4 Power Wiring Connection Procedure”.
• Secure wiring with clamp such as insulation lock ties to avoid con-tact with piping.
• Shape the wires to prevent the structure such as the EL. COMPO. BOX 1 lid deforming. And close the cover firmly.
• This equipment complies with EN61000-3-12 provided that short-circuit power Ssc is greater than or equal to 1453 at the interface point between the user’s supply and the public system. It is the responsibility of the installer or user of the equipment to ensure, by consultation with the distribution network operator if necessary, that the equipment is connected only to a supply with a short-cir-cuit power Ssc greater than or equal to 1453.
7-2 Leading wire Procedure• The power wiring and ground wiring are passed out from the
power wiring hole on the sides, the front (knock hole) or the bot-tom frame (knock hole).
• The transmission wiring is passed out from the wiring hole (knock hole) on the front of the unit or from a piping hole.
Note• Open the knock holes with a hammer or the like.• After knocking out the holes, we recommend you remove any
burrs and paint them using the repair paint to prevent rusting.• When passing electrical wiring through the knock holes, protect

Power circuit, safety device, and cable requirements• A power circuit (see the following table) must be provided for con-
nection of the unit. This circuit must be protected with the required safety devices, i.e. a main switch, a slow blow fuse on each phase and an earth leakage circuit breaker.
• When using residual current operated circuit breakers, be sure to use a high-speed type (1 second or less) 200mA rated residual operating current.
• Use copper conductors only.• Use insulated wire for the power cord.• Select the power supply cable type and size in accordance with
relevant local and national regulations.• Specifications for local wiring are in compliance with IEC60245.• Use wire type H05VV when protected pipes are used.• Use wire type H07RN-F when protected pipes are not used.
CAUTION
• Do not coat stranded wires with solder.• Be sure to use crimp-style terminal with insulating sleeves for
connections. (See the figure below.)
• For wiring, use the designated power wire and connect firmly, then secure to prevent outside pressure being exerted on the ter-minal board.
• Use an appropriate screwdriver for tightening the terminal screws. A screwdriver with a small head will strip the head and make proper tightening impossible.
• Over-tightening the terminal screws may break them.See the following table for the tightening torque of the terminal screws.
• When pulling the ground wire out, wire it so that it comes through the cut out section of the cup washer. (See the figure below.) An improper ground connection may prevent a good ground from being achieved.
• When two wires are connected to a single terminal, connect them so that the rear sides of the crimp contacts face each other. Also, make sure the thinner wire is on top, securing the two wires simul-taneously to the resin hook using the accessory clamp (1).
7-5 Procedure for Wiring Inside Units• Referring to the following figure, secure and wire the power and
transmission wiring using the accessory clamp (1), (2), and (3).• Lay the ground wire so that it will not come in contact with the lead
wires of the compressor. Other equipment will be adversely affected if the ground wire comes in contact with the lead wires of the compressor.
• Make sure all wiring do not contact to the pipes (hatching parts in the figure).
• The transmission wiring must be at least 50 mm away from the power wiring.

8. INSPECTION AND PIPE INSULATIONTo Piping and Electric Wiring Contractors• Be sure to use nitrogen gas for airtight tests.• Do not open a shutoff valve until the insulation of the main power
supply circuit is measured. Insulation degradation may result if the insulation is measured with the shutoff valve opened.
8-1 Testing Instruments
8-2 Operation method of shutoff valveTake the following procedure to operate the shutoff valve.
CAUTION
• Do not open the shutoff valve until all the items specified in “8-6 Checking of device and installation conditions” in the installation manual are completed.
• The shutoff valve is of back seat type. Be sure to turn and loosen the packing bush 1/4 rotation when opening or closing the valve. Be sure to tighten the packing bush securely after the valve is opened or closed.
• After the operation of the valve is completed, be sure to mount the valve cover packing provided to the valve and tighten the cap.
• After tightening the packing bush and cap, be sure to check that there is no refrigerant gas leakage.
• Be sure to use a dedicated tool at the time of handling the shutoff valve. The valve may be damaged if excessive force is imposed.
• If the shutoff valve is left opened without power supplied, refriger-ant will be condensed in the compressor and the insulation of the main power circuit will be degraded.
Tightening torqueCheck the sizes of shutoff valves mounted to each model and the tightening torque of each valve from the following table.
Method of opening(1) Remove the cap and turn the packing bush counterclockwise
1/4 rotation.(2) Tighten the shaft until the shaft comes in contact with the front seat.(3) Turn and loosen the packing bush clockwise 1/4 rotation.(4) Check that there is no refrigerant gas leakage from the valve
packing or shaft. (If there is leakage, further tighten the shaft.)(5) Insert the valve cover packing into the cap, and tighten the cap
securely.
Method of closing(1) Remove the cap and turn the packing bush counterclockwise
1/4 rotation.(2) Tighten the shaft until the shaft comes in contact with the back seat.(3) Turn and loosen the packing bush clockwise 1/4 rotation.(4) Check that there is no refrigerant gas leakage from the valve
packing or shaft. (If there is leakage, further tighten the shaft.)(5) Insert the valve cover packing into the cap, and tighten the cap
securely.
8-3 Operation method of service port
Note• Conduct an airtight test and vacuum dry-
ing infallibly through the service port for both liquid and gas shutoff valves.
• Refer to the integrated label on the front panel of the outdoor unit for the position of the service port.
Connecting charge hose(1) Remove the nut of the service port after loosening the nut a little
with a spanner and checking that no gas is coming out.(2) Apply PAG oil to the seal, and hold and screw in the nut of the
charge hose by hand.(3) Further tighten the nut with a spanner by 30° to 45°.(4) Check that there is no refrigerant gas leakage from the nut and
plug. If there is any refrigerant gas leakage, further tighten them.

Removing charge hose after refrigerant replenishment(1) Close both liquid and gas shutoff valves, loosen the nut of the
charge hose a little with a spanner, and check that no gas comes out.
(2) Remove the charge hose.(3) Apply PAG oil to the seal, and hold and screw in the nut by hand.(4) Further tighten the nut with a spanner by 30° to 45°.(5) Check that there is no refrigerant gas leakage from the nut and
plug. If there is any refrigerant gas leakage, further tighten them.
WARNING
• Fully open the stop valve and disconnect the charge hose from the service port on completion of refrigerant replen-ishment.
• High-pressure refrigerant will be discharged because there is no valve core, which will result in a very dangerous state.
8-4 Air tight test and vacuum drying methodAfter finished piping work, carry out air tight test and vacuum drying.
Inspection systemRefer to the following connection diagram and connect the nitrogen bottle, refrigerant bottle, and vacuum pump to the outdoor unit.
Method of airtight testKeep applying a maximum pressure of 12.3 MPa from both liquid and gas pipes (and make sure that the pressure will not exceed 12.3 MPa). The air conditioner will pass the test if there is no pressure fall for 24 hours. If there is a pressure fall, make a leakage check, remedy the problem, and conduct an airtight test again.
Method of vacuum drying• Evacuate the system from the liquid and gas pipes by using a vac-
uum pump for more than 2 hours and bring the system to –100.7 kPa or less. After keeping the system under that condition for more than 1 hour, check that the vacuum gauge does not rise. If it rises, the system may either contain moisture inside or have leaks.
• Take the following procedure if the air conditioner is installed in the rainy season, if dew condensation in the pipe is feared because the period of installation work is long, or if the penetra-tion of moisture including rainwater is feared during the period of installation work.(1) After performing the vacuum drying for two hours, pressurize
to 0.05 MPa (i.e., vacuum breakdown) with nitrogen gas, then evacuate the system to –100.7 kPa for an hour using the vac-uum pump (vacuum drying).
(2) If the pressure does not reach –100.7 kPa or below after evacuating for 2 hours or more, repeat a vacuum breakdown and vacuum drying.
8-5 Pipe insulation• Insulation of pipes should be done after performing “AIR TIGHT
TEST AND VACUUM DRYING”. • Always insulate the liquid side piping and gas side piping in the
interunit piping and refrigerant branching kit. Failing to insulate the pipes could cause leaking or burns. (The gas side piping can reach temperatures of 120°C. Be sure the insulation used can withstand such temperatures.)
• Reinforce the insulation on the refrigerant piping according to the installation environment. Condensation might form on the surface of the insulation.
Ambient temperature: 30°C, humidity: 75% to 80% RH: min. thickness: 15 mm.If the ambient temperature exceeds 30°C and the humidity 80% RH, then the min. thickness is 20 mm.
• If there is a possibility that condensation on the shutoff valve might drip down into the indoor unit through gaps in the insulation and piping because the outdoor unit is located higher than the indoor unit, etc., this must be prevented by caulking the connec-tions, etc.
• The piping lead-out hole lid should be attached after opening a knock hole.If small animals and the like might enter the unit through the pip-ing lead-out hole, close the hole with blocking material (procured on site) after completion of “9. PROCEDURE OF ADDING REFRIGERANT CHARGING AND CHECK OPERATION”.The piping outlet port is used to draw in the charge hose at the time of work specified in “9. PROCEDURE OF ADDING REFRIG-ERANT CHARGING AND CHECK OPERATION”.
Note• After knocking out the holes, we recommend you remove burrs in
the knock holes and paint the edges and areas around the edges using the repair paint.

1. Make sure there is no faulty transmission wiring or loosing of a nut. See “7-3 Transmission Wiring Connection Procedure”.
2. Make sure there is no faulty power wiring or loosing of a nut.See “7-4 Power Wiring Connection Procedure”.
3. Has the insulation of the main power circuit deteriorated?Measure the insulation and check the insulation is above regular value in accordance with relevant local and national regulations.
For those doing pipe work
1. Make sure piping size is correct.See “6-1 Selection of piping material and Refrigerant branch-ing kit”.
2. Make sure insulation work is done. See “8-5 Pipe insulation”.
3. Make sure there is no faulty refrigerant piping.See “6. REFRIGERANT PIPING”.
9. PROCEDURE OF ADDING REFRIGER-ANT CHARGING AND CHECK OPER-ATION
Use dedicated R744 refrigerant for replenishment.Otherwise the air conditioner may not operate normally due to the dif-ference in moisture control level.
Warning Electric Shock Warning
• Make sure to close the EL. COMPO. BOX 1 lid before turning on the power when performing the refrigerant charging operation.
• Perform the setting on the PC-board (A1P) of the outdoor unit and check the LED display after the power is on via the inspection door which is in the EL. COMPO. BOX 1 lid.
• Use an insulated rod to operate the push buttons via the inspec-tion door of EL. COMPO. BOX 1.There is a risk of electric shock if you touch any live parts, since this operation must be performed with the power on.
WARNING
• Make sure to use the protect tool (protective groves and gog-gles) when charging the refrigerant.
• Do not perform the filling operation or check operation of the air conditioner while working on the indoor unit.While in filling operation or check operation, the indoor unit will operate as well. This will put you in danger.
• When opening the front panel, make sure to take caution to the fan rotation during the working.After the outdoor unit stops operating, the fan may keep rotation for a while.
Note• If operation is performed within 12 minutes after the indoor and
outdoor units are turned on, H2P will be lit on and the compressor will not operate.
• In order to ensure uniform refrigerant distribution, it may take up to around 10 minutes for the compressor to start up after the unit starting operating. This is not a malfunction.
• Refer to “8-3 Operation method of service port” for the handling of the charge hose.
• Refer to “8-2 Operation method of shutoff valve” for the han-dling of the stop valve.
• When done or when pausing the refrigerant charging operation, close the valve of the refrigerant tank immediately. If the tank is left with the valve open, the amount of refrigerant which is prop-erly charged may be off the point. More refrigerant may be charged by any remaining pressure after the machine is stopped.
• Make sure to perform the check operation after installation. Oth-erwise, the malfunction code “U3” will be displayed and normal operation cannot be performed.And the failure of “Check of miswiring” may also cause abnormal operation. Performance may drop due to the failure of “Judgment of piping length”.
• Check operation must be performed for each refrigerant piping system.Checking is impossible if plural systems are being done at once.
• The individual problems of indoor units can not be checked.About these problems check by test run after the check operation is completed. (See 10. TEST RUN)
• The check operation cannot be performed in recovery or other service modes.
• While the outdoor temperature is below –20°C, the compressor may not start if the air conditioner is operated within 1 hour after the outdoor unit is turned on.
9-1 Procedure of adding refrigerant charging1. Make sure the following works are complete in accordance with
the installation manual.Piping workWiring workAir tight test/Vacuum dryingInstallation work for indoor unit
2. Calculate the “additional charging amount” using “How to calcu-late the additional refrigerant to be charged” in “6-1 Selection of piping material and Refrigerant branching kit”.
3. Open the valve B, and charge the refrigerant of the “additional charging amount” from the liquid side shutout valve service port.
4. If part of refrigerant replenishment is left, perform the operation of charging the remaining refrigerant using the service port so that all the replenishment will be completed.
5. Record the charging amount on the accessory “REQUEST FOR THE INDICATION” label and attach it to the back side of the front panel.

<Operation procedure for charging additional refrigerant>Refer to the “Service Precautions” label on lid of the EL. COMPO. BOX 1 of the outdoor unit for operation settings for charging addi-tional refrigerant
(1) Fully open the shutoff valve on the gas side (with the shutoff valve on the liquid side and valve A shown in the above figure kept closed) to perform the operation of charging additional refrigerant.
(2) When the specified amount of refrigerant is filled, press the con-firmation button (BS3) on the PCB (A1P) of the outdoor unit to stop the operation of charging additional refrigerant.
(3) Fully open the liquid shutoff valve promptly, or otherwise a piping rupture may result from liquid seal.
[About the refrigerant tank]Check whether the tank has a siphon pipe before charging and place the tank so that the refrigerant is charged in liquid form. (See the fig-ure below.)
9-2 Check operationTake the following procedure to perform the check operation of the air conditioner.The following checks are made during the check operation. The air condi-tioner will not operate normally unless the check operation is performed.
