Service information
Please observe these warnings when servicing the appliance with R290 refrigerant. -
Workspace control
Prior to working on a system containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are necessary to ensure that the risk of ignition is minimized. The following precautions must be observed before repairing the cooling system. -
Work procedure
The work must be carried out in a controlled manner so as to minimize the risk of flammable gases or vapors being present during the work. -
Total workspace
The entire maintenance crew and others working on site must be instructed about the nature of the work performed. Work in confined spaces must be avoided. The space around the workplace must be divided into sections. It must be ensured that indoor conditions are safe by inspecting flammable materials. -
Checking the presence of refrigerant
The room must be inspected with an appropriate refrigerant detector before and during work to ensure that technicians are aware of the potentially flammable atmosphere. It must be ensured that the use of leak detection equipment is suitable for use on flammable refrigerants, that is, non‑sparking, appropriately sealed or inherently safe. -
Presence of fire extinguisher
If any work is to be carried out on the refrigeration equipment or associated parts in warm area, a suitable fire extinguishing system must be available. The fire extinguisher must be powder or CO2 in the vicinity of the filling area. -
No sources of ignition
No person performing work on the refrigeration system that involves exposing any piping that contains or has contained flammable refrigerant shall use any sources of ignition in a way that could lead to a risk of fire or explosion. All possible sources of ignition, including cigarette smoking, should be kept away from the installation, repair, removal and disposal site during which flammable refrigerant may be discharged into the surrounding area. Prior to work, the area around the equipment must be inspect- ed to ensure that there is no risk of fire or ignition. “No smoking” signs must be posted. -
Ventilated space
It must be ensured that the room is open or adequately ventilated before the system is disrupted or work in warm environment is carried out. The ventilation intensity must last for the duration of the work. Ventilation should safely disperse any discharged refrigerant and preferably vent it to the atmosphere. -
Inspection of cooling equipment
If electrical components are changed, these components must be suitable for this purpose and meet the correct specifications.
The manufacturer’s maintenance and service instructions must always be followed. If in doubt, contact the manufacturer’s technical department for assistance.
The following checks must be carried out on installations containing flammable refrigerants:
* The volume of the fill is in accordance with the size of the room in which the parts containing the refrigerant are installed;
* Ventilation units and outlets are working at full capacity and are not blocked;
* If an indirect refrigeration circuit is used, the second circuit must be checked for the presence of refrigerant;
* The marking of the device must always be visible and legible; markings and marks which are not legible must be fixed;
* Refrigeration pipes or components are installed in locations where they are unlikely to be exposed to any substances that may corrode refrigerant-containing components unless the components are constructed of materials that are intrinsically corrosion-resistant or are adequately protected against corrosion.
9. Inspection of electrical components
Repairs and maintenance of electrical components must include safety checks
and inspections of the components. If a malfunction occurs that could
compromise safety, then no power supply must be connected to the circuit until
the fault has been satisfactorily resolved. If the malfunction cannot be
repaired immediately, it has to continue working; an appropriate temporary
solution must be used. This must be reported to the owner of the facility so
that all parties know about it.
Initial safety checks must ensure:
* That the capacitors are discharged: this must be done in a safe way to avoid the possibility of sparking;
* That no electrical components and wiring is exposed when filling, restoring and cleaning the system;
* That grounding is not interrupted.
-
Repairs of sealed components
-
During the repair of sealed components, all electrical supply must be disconnected from the equipment being worked on before the sealed covers are removed, etc. If it is absolutely necessary to have the equipment switched on during service, then a continuously operating leak detector has to be placed in the most critical location to warn of a potentially dangerous situation.
-
Special care must be taken to ensure that work on electrical components does not alter the cover to such an extent as to affect the level of protection. This must include damage to the cables, excessive number of connections and terminals not made to the original specification, damage to the seals, incorrect design of the seals, etc. It must be ensured that the device is installed securely. It must be ensured that the seals or sealing materials are not degraded in such a way that they no longer serve the purpose of preventing the entering of flammable materials. Spare parts must comply with the manufacturer’s specification. The use of a silicone seal may suppress the effectiveness of some types of leak detection devices. Internally safe components do not have to be disconnected before they can be worked on.
-
Repairs of internal safe components
No permanent inductive or capacitive loads shall be applied to the circuit without ensuring that the permissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment used are not exceeded.
Internally safe components are the only types that can be worked on in a flammable
environment, even if they are live. The test equipment must be correctly dimensioned.
Parts are replaced only by parts specified by the manufacturer. Other parts may ignite
the refrigerant if it leaks into the environment. -
Wiring
Check that the wiring is not exposed to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges or any other adverse environmental effects. The inspection must also take into account the effects of aging or permanent vibrations from sources such as compressors or fans. -
Detection of flammable refrigerants
Under no circumstances may potential sources of ignition be used to search for or detect refrigerant leaks. The halogen burner (or any other detector using open flame) must not be used. -
Leak detection methods
The following leak detection methods are considered acceptable for systems containing flammable refrigerants.
Electronic leak detectors must be used to detect flammable refrigerants, but their sensitivity may not be adequate or may require recalibration. (The detection device must be calibrated in a refrigerant‑free space). It must be ensured that the detector is not a potential source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used. The leak detection device must be set to the percentage of LFL refrigerant and must be calibrated to the refrigerant used and the appropriate gas percentage (maximum 25%) confirmed. Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with most refrigerants, but the use of chlorine-containing detergents must be avoided because chlorine can react with the refrigerant and corrode copper piping.
If a leak is suspected, all open fires must be eliminated / extinguished.
If a refrigerant leak is found, which requires brazing; all refrigerant must be removed from the system or separated (by closing the valves) in the part of the system remote from the leak. The system must then be purged with oxygen‑free nitrogen (OFN), both
before and after the brazing process. -
Removal and pumping
Conventional procedures must be used if the cooling circuit is disturbed due to repairs – or for any other reason. However, it is important to keep to the best method due to flammability.
The following procedure must be followed:- remove the refrigerant;
- purge the circuit with inert gas;
- pump away;
- purge again with inert gas;
- open the circuit by cutting or brazing.
The circuit filling must be taken to the correct collection cylinders. The system must be “flooded” with OFN (oxygen‑free nitrogen) to make the unit safe. The procedure may need to be repeated several times. Compressed air or oxygen must not be used for this task.
Flooding can be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system using OFN and continuing to fill until the operating pressure is reached, then venting to air, and finally
reducing to vacuum. This process must be repeated while the refrigerant is in the system. When the last OFN charge is used, the system must be vented to atmospheric pressure to allow the work to be done. This operation is absolutely necessary if brazing is to be performed on the piping.
It must be ensured that the outlets are not close to any source of ignition and that ventilation is provided.
-
Filling procedure
In addition to conventional filling procedures, the following requirements must be met.- Care must be taken to ensure that using the filling equipment does not contaminate the various refrigerants. Hoses or piping must be as short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained in them.
- The cylinders must be held vertically.
- It must be ensured that the cooling system is grounded before filling the system with refrigerant.
- When filling is complete, the system must be labeled (if it does not already have a label).
- Extreme care must be taken to ensure that the cooling system is not overfilled. It must be pressure tested with OFN before refilling the system. The system must be tested for leaks after filling but before starting operation. A verification test must be carried out before leaving the installation site.
-
Taking out of operation
Before performing this procedure, it is essential that the technician is fully acquainted with the equipment and all its details. Good practice is recommended to remove all refrigerant safely. Oil and refrigerant samples must be taken before this operation begins, if analysis is required before the regenerated refrigerant can be used again. It is essential that electricity is available before starting this activity.- Introduction to the device and its operation.
- Electrical disconnection of the system.
- Before initiating the procedure, it must be ensured that:
- mechanical equipment for handling the refrigerant cylinders was available if required;
- all personal protective equipment was available and used correctly;
- the removal procedure was constantly under the supervision of a competent person;
- collection devices and cylinders complied with the relevant standards.
- Drain the cooling system if possible.
- If it is not possible to achieve a vacuum, a manifold is made so that the refrigerant can be taken from different parts of the system.
- It must be ensured that the cylinder is placed on the scale before the collection takes place.
- The collection device is switched on and the manufacturer’s instructions are used.
- Do not overfill the cylinders. (Not more than 80% of the liquid content).
- The maximum operating pressure of the cylinder is not exceeded, even temporarily.
- When the cylinders are properly filled and the process is completed, it is ensured that the cylinders and equipment are immediately removed from the installation site and all separation valves on the equipment are closed.
- The removed refrigerant must not be filled into another cooling system until it has been cleaned and inspected.
-
Labelling
The appliance must get a label stating that it has been taken out of service and does not contain refrigerant. The label must be dated and signed. It shall be ensured that the equipment has labels indicating that the equipment contains a flammable refrigerant. -
Removal
When refrigerant is removed from the system, either for service or decommissioning, good practice recommends removing all refrigerants safely.
When transferring refrigerant to the cylinders, make sure that only the appropriate refrigerant removal cylinders are used. It must be ensured that the correct number of cylinders is available to contain the total fill of the system.
All cylinders to be used must be designed for the refrigerant to be removed and marked with a label for this refrigerant (i.e. special refrigerant collection cylinders).
The cylinders must be complete with a safety valve and holding shutoff valves in good working order. Empty collection cylinders are drained and if possible cooled before collecting.
The collecting equipment must be in good working order with a set of instructions for the equipment at hand and must be suitable for collecting flammable refrigerants. In addition, a set of calibrated scales must be available in good working order. The hoses must be complete with detachable couplings without leakage and in good condition.
Before using the collecting device, it must be checked that it is in a satisfactory operating condition, has been properly maintained and that all associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of refrigerant discharge. In case of doubt, consult the manufacturer.
The drained refrigerant must be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct collecting cylinder and with the relevant agreed waste shipment letter. Refrigerants do not mix in the collection units and especially not in the cylinders.
If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been pumped to an acceptable level to ensure that flammable refrigerant does not remain in the lubricant. The pumping out procedure must be performed before the com-pressor is returned to the supplier. Only electric compressor housing heating must be used to speed up this process. When oil is drained from the system, it must be safely disposed of.

OTHER FUNCTIONS
Automatic defrost
If the portable air conditioner is operated in a room where the temperature is
very low, ice may form on the evaporator.
If the portable air conditioner is turned on in cooling or drying mode and the
ambient temperature sensor detects that the evaporator coil temperature has
dropped below -1 ° C, the defrost function will turn on automatically to
defrost the icing on the evaporator and the portable air conditioner will not
be damaged.
When the automatic defrost function is activated, the power light flashes.
The original operation of the portable air conditioner will resume
automatically after the compressor has remained idle for 10 minutes or if the
evaporator coil temperature has risen to 7 ° C.
Overload protection
If the power supply is interrupted while the portable air conditioner has been
in operation, the air conditioner will restart after the supply is restored,
however, the com-pressor will not start until 3 minutes after the power supply
is restored.
This is a normal phenomenon to protect the compressor from damage due to
overload.
Drain of the condensate
If you use the portable air conditioner in dehumidification mode, you will need to drain the accumulated condensate regularly, or attach a drain hose to the upper drain hole to ensure constant condensate drainage.
Manual drain of the condensate
-
If the condensate tank is full, the air conditioner will stop automatically. “Ft” (Full tank) appears on the display. In this case, disconnect the power plug and carefully move the portable air conditioner to a place where the condensate can be drained.
-
Place a container under the lower drain hole into which the condensate will flow.
-
Carefully remove the drain plug and the condensate will start to flow ‑ see Figure 2 A.
Note: As the condensate drains, you can tilt the portable air conditioner slightly to completely empty the condensate tank. -
If the container into which the condensate flows is full, insert the plug into the drain hole to stop draining the condensate.
Empty the container and then place it back under the opening. Remove the plug and continue draining. -
When the condensate stops flowing, insert the plug into the drain hole. Make sure that it is inserted firmly.
-
Move the portable air conditioner to its original position, plug the power plug into a power outlet, and turn on the air conditioner.
Warning: Never use the portable air conditioner without a properly sealed
drain hole.
Otherwise, condensate may leak onto the floor and damage the floor.
Permanent drain of the condensate
If you need to ensure constant condensate drainage, proceed as follows:
- Turn off the portable air conditioner and disconnect the power plug.
- Remove the plug from the upper drain hole.
- Insert the end of the drain hose into the upper drain hole. Make sure that it is inserted correctly, is not tangled or bent and do not place any objects on the hose ‑ see Figure 2 B.
- Insert the other end of the drain hose into an empty container or drain. It is important that the other end of the drain hose is located lower (20 ° or more) than the upper drain hole.
Warning: Under no circumstances immerse the end of the drain hose in
water. Water
could be sucked back into the portable air conditioner.
TIP: Fully unwind and straighten the drain hose before use.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always switch off the appliance, wait 2 to 3 minutes and then disconnect the plug from the power outlet before cleaning or any maintenance.
Warning:
Never immerse the appliance, the power cord or the plug in water or any other
liquid.
Do not use plastic or metal scrapers, harsh cleaners, chemicals, petrol,
solvents or other similar substances to clean any parts of the appliance. The
surface finish could be seriously damaged.
Air filter cleaning
The air filter catches dirt and dust from the intake air, so it is important
to clean the air filter approximately every two weeks if you use the portable
air conditioner regularly. A dirty air filter reduces the efficiency of the
portable air conditioner, and if it is heavily soiled or clogged, the portable
air conditioner could be damaged.
Warning: Never use a portable air conditioner with a damaged air filter
or without a filter.
-
Make sure the portable air conditioner is turned off and the power cord plug is unplugged.
-
Remove the protective grille and take out the air filter.
-
To remove dust, use a vacuum cleaner fitted with a brush nozzle and set to low power.
If the air filter is dirtier, turn it upside down and rinse it under cold running water ‑ see Figure 2C. It is important that the water flows through the filter in the opposite direction than the air flows into the interior of the portable air conditioner. Set the filter aside and let it dry freely.
Warning: Never use a portable air conditioner with a wet or damp air filter. Do not dry the air filter in the dryer or use any other appliances (e.g. hair dryer, etc.) to speed up drying. -
Prior to reinstallation, make sure that the air filter is clean and completely dry.
-
Put the air filter back in the portable air conditioner and put on the protective grille.
Cleaning the outer casing
Wipe the outer casings of the portable air conditioner with a soft sponge soaked in lukewarm water with a little neutral detergent. Wipe dry.
Storage
If you will not be using the portable air conditioner for a long time, you
need to clean it properly and make sure its components are dry.
- Turn off the air conditioner and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
- Disconnect the flexible hose and remove the sealing foil from the window.
- Drain the condensate. Follow the instructions in the “DRAINING CONDENSATE” section.
- Clean the air filter Follow the instructions in the “Cleaning the air filter” section.
- Make sure all components are dry. It is especially important to keep the evaporator and air filter dry. Otherwise, there is a risk of mold and odors. Leave the portable air conditioner in a dry and well-ventilated place for several days before storing. Alternatively, you can turn on the portable air conditioner, set the lowest fan speed, and leave the drain hose plugged in until the drain hose inside is dry inside.
- Keep portable air conditioner in a well-ventilated place, out of reach of children or pets. Do not place any objects on the portable air conditioner. The portable air conditioner must be stored in an upright position. Never lay it down.
