6. Connecting water pipes
Please observe the following precautions during installation.
6.1. Important notes on water pipework installation for connection with HBC unit
· The water pressure resistance of the water pipes in the heat source unit is 1.0 MPa [145 psi].
· Please connect the water pipework of each indoor unit to the connect port on the HBC. Failure to do so will result in incorrect running.
· Please list the indoor units on the naming plate in the HBC unit with addresses and end connection numbers.
· If the number of indoor units are less than the number of ports on the HBC, the unused ports can be capped. Without a cap, water will leak.
· Use the reverse-return method to insure proper pipe resistance to each unit. · Provide some joints and bulbs around inlet/outlet of each unit for easy mainte-
nance, checkup, and replacement. · Install a suitable air vent on the water pipe. After flowing water through the pipe,
vent any excess air. · Secure the pipes with metal fitting, positioning them in locations to protect pipes
against breakage and bending. · Do not confuse the water intake and outlet piping. Error code 5102 will appear on
the remote controller if a test run is performed with the pipe-work installed incorrectly (inlet connected to outlet and vice versa). · This unit doesn’t include a heater to prevent freezing within tubes. If the water flow is stopped on low ambient, drain the water out. · The unused knockout holes should be closed and the refrigerant pipes, water pipes, power source and transmission wires access holes should be filled with putty. · Install water pipe so that the water flow rate will be maintained. · Wrap sealing tape as follows. 1 Wrap the joint with sealing tape following the direction of the threads (clock-
wise), do not wrap the tape over the edge. 2 Overlap the sealing tape by two-thirds to three-fourths of its width on each
turn. Press the tape with your fingers so that it is tight against each thread. 3 Do not wrap the 1.5th through 2nd farthest threads away from the pipe end. · Hold the pipe on the unit side in place with a spanner when installing the pipes or strainer. Tighten screws to a torque of 40 N·m. · If there is a risk of freezing, carry out a procedure to prevent it. · When connecting heat source unit water piping and on site water piping, apply liquid sealing material for water piping over the sealing tape before connection. · Do not use steel pipes as water pipes. – Copper pipes are recommended. · Install a strainer (40 mesh or more) on the pipe next to the valve to remove the foreign matters. · Be sure to provide anti-dew condensation treatment on the inlet and outlet of the water pipes and on the valve. Provide an appropriate treatment on the end surface of the dew proofing material to keep condensation out.
14

· Leave the pipe-holding sheet metal as it is ([Fig. 6.3.2] (P.7) C). If the pipe is connected without the sheet metal in place, undue force may be applied to the pipe, and the pipe may become deformed.
· When water has been supplied to the water pipework, purge the system of air. The details of air purging can be found separately in the water circuit maintenance manual.
· Be sure to braze the water pipes after covering a wet cloth to the insulation pipes of the units in order to prevent them from burning and shrinking by heat. (There are some plastic parts in indoor unit.)
· Install the unit so that external force is not applied to the water pipes.
6.2. Important notes on water pipework installation for connection with hydro unit
· Use water pipe-work with a design pressure of at least 1.0 MPa. · When performing a water leak check, please do not allow the water pressure to
go above 1.0 MPa. · Perform a pressure test on the field-installed water pipes at a pressure equal to
1.5 times the design pressure. Before performing a pressure test, isolate the pipes from hydro unit and indoor units. · Please connect the water pipework of each indoor unit to the connect on the hydro unit. Failure to do so will result in incorrect running. · Provide some joints and valves around inlet/outlet of each unit for easy maintenance, checkup, and replacement. · Install a suitable air vent on the water pipe. After flowing water through the pipe, vent any excess air. · After the completion of test run, make sure not to reintroduce air into the pipe. · Secure the pipes with metal fitting, positioning them in locations to protect pipes against breakage and bending. · Do not confuse the water intake and outlet piping especially when connecting the hydro unit. (Error code 5102 will appear on the remote controller if a test run is performed with the pipe-work installed incorrectly (inlet connected to outlet and vice versa).) · Install water pipe so that the water flow rate will be maintained. · If there is a risk of freezing, carry out a procedure to prevent it. · Use copper, plastic, steel, or stainless steel pipes for the water circuit. Furthermore, when using copper pipe-work, use a non-oxidative brazing method. Oxidation of the pipe-work will reduce the pump life. When using iron or stainlesssteel pipework, ensure that rust from the pipework does not enter the unit. · Connect the pipe and the unit so that the pipe does not interfere with maintenance and sufficient space is left for maintenance. · Install a strainer (40 mesh or more) on the pipe next to the valve to remove the foreign matters. · Be sure to provide anti-dew condensation treatment on the inlet and outlet of the water pipes and on the valve. Provide an appropriate treatment on the end surface of the dew proofing material to keep condensation out.

6.3. Water pipe insulation for connection with HBC

unit

1. Connect the water pipes of each indoor unit to the same (correct) end connection numbers as indicated on the indoor unit connection section of each HBC controller. If connected to wrong end connection numbers, there will be no normal operation.
2. List indoor unit model names in the name plate on the HBC controller control box (for identification purposes), and HBC controller end connection numbers and address numbers in the name plate on the indoor unit side. Seal unused end connections using cover caps (sold separately). Not replacing on end cap will lead to water leakage.
3. Be sure to add insulation work to water piping by covering water pipework separately with enough thickness heat-resistant polyethylene, so that no gap is observed in the joint between indoor unit and insulating material, and insulating materials themselves. When insulation work is insufficient, there is a possibility of condensation, etc. Pay special attention to insulation work in the ceiling plenum.

6.5. Water treatment and quality control

To preserve water quality, use the closed type of water circuit. When the circulating water quality is poor, the water heat exchanger can develop scales, leading to a reduction in heat-exchange power and possible corrosion. Pay careful attention to water processing and water quality control when installing the water circulation system. · Removing of foreign objects or impurities within the pipes

During installation, make sure that foreign objects, such as welding fragments,

sealant particles, or rust, do not enter the pipes.

· Water Quality Processing

1 Depending on the quality of the cold-temperature water used in the airconditioner, the copper piping of the heat exchanger may corrode. Regular water quality processing is recommended. If a water supply tank is installed, keep air contact to a minimum, and keep the level of dissolved oxygen in the water no higher than 1 mg/.

3 Consult with a specialist about water quality control methods and calculations before using anti-corrosive solutions.
4 When replacing a previously installed air conditioning device (even when only the heat exchanger is being replaced), first conduct a water quality analysis and check for possible corrosion. Corrosion can occur in cold-water systems even if there has been no prior signs of corrosion. If the water quality level has dropped, adjust water quality before replacing the unit.

7. Electrical wiring

Precautions on electrical wiring
Warning:
Electrical work should be done by qualified electrical engineers in accordance with “Engineering Standards For Electrical Installation” and supplied installation manuals. Special circuits should also be used. If the power circuit lacks capacity or has an installation failure, it may cause a risk of electric shock or fire.
1. Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker to the power. 2. Install the unit to prevent that any of the control circuit cables (remote controller,
transmission cables) is brought in direct contact with the power cable outside the unit. 3. Ensure that there is no slack on all wire connections. 4. Some cables (power, remote controller, transmission cables) above the ceiling may be bitten by mouses. Use as many metal pipes as possible to insert the cables into them for protection.

5. Never connect the power cable to leads for the transmission cables. Otherwise the cables would be broken.
6. Be sure to connect control cables to the indoor unit, remote controller, and the outdoor unit.
7. Put the unit to the ground on the outdoor unit side. 8. Select control cables from the conditions given below.
Caution:
· Be sure to put the unit to the ground on the outdoor unit side. Do not connect the earth cable to any gas pipe, water pipe, lightening rod, or telephone earth cable. Incomplete grounding may cause a risk of electric shock.
· If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

7.3. How to mount remote controller
1. Dismount the upper part of remote controller, and fasten the base of the controller at the indicated positions with screws provided. (Be careful not to cut the wiring inside the controller.) [Fig. 7.3.1] (P.8)
2. Connect the transmission terminal bed inside the control box and the terminal bed of the remote controller through the notch. [Fig. 7.3.2] (P.8) A Notch for transmission line
3. After completing the work of the above items 1 and 2, insert the upper part of remote controller into its original position.
Note: · Unscrew the two screws holding the base of the controller to remove the
remote controller. [Fig. 7.3.3] (P.8)

Caution:
Install wiring so that it is not tight and under tension. Wiring under tension may break, or overheat and burn.

7.4. Connecting electrical connections
Please identify the model name of the operation manual attached on the terminal box cover with that shown on the rating name plate.

1. Remove the screws holding the cover to dismount the cover.

5. After wiring is complete, make sure again that there is no slack on the connections, and attach the cover onto the terminal box in the reverse order of removal.

Notes: · Do not pinch the cables or wires when attaching the terminal box cover.
Doing so may cause a risk of disconnection. · When accommodating the terminal box, make sure that the connectors on
the box side are not removed. If removed, it cannot operate normally.

7.5. Optional VALVE KIT electrical construction work
1. Remove the screw (4pcs) holding the cover to dismount the cover.

4. Install a band on the optional lead wire, and perform measures against tension. [Fig. 7.5.3] (P.9) C Optional VALVE KIT lead wire D Cable clamp E Small band (included with the optional VALVE KIT)
5. Attach the electrical box cover as it was.
7.6. External I/O specifications
Caution:
1. Wiring should be covered by insulation tube with supplementary insulation. 2. Use relays or switches with IEC or equivalent standard. 3. The electric strength between accessible parts and control circuit should
have 2750 V or more.
7.7. Setting addresses
(Be sure to operate with the main power turned OFF.) [Fig. 7.7.1] (P.10) <Indoor controller board>
· There are two types of rotary switch setting available: setting addresses 1 to 9 and over 10, and setting branch numbers. 1 How to set addresses Example: If Address is “3”, remain SW12 (for over 10) at “0”, and match SW11 (for 1 to 9) with “3”. 2 How to set branch numbers SW14 (Series R2 only) The branch number assigned to each indoor unit is the port number of the BC controller to which the indoor unit is connected. Leave it to “0” on the non-R2 series of units.
· The rotary switches are all set to “0” when shipped from the factory. These switches can be used to set unit addresses and branch numbers at will.
· The determination of indoor unit addresses varies with the system at site. Set them referring to the Data Book.
7.8. Sensing room temperature with the built-in sensor in a remote controller
If you want to sense room temperature with the built-in sensor in a remote controller, set SW1-1 on the control board to “ON”. The setting of SW1-7 and SW1-8 as necessary also makes it possible to adjust the air flow at a time when the heating thermometer is OFF.
Note: To perform the auto cooling/heating operation, use the built-in sensor in a remote controller or the optional remote sensor.
7.9. Setting of intermittent fan control
When the unit is used in a high temperature and humidity environment, set the function setting No. 119 to “2.” (Default setting: “1”)
Caution:
When the setting is enabled, the stopped fan may start operating.
