the maximum refrigerant charge amount : APH10CE-14.82
the maximum refrigerant charge amount: APH10CH-14.82
The appliance shall be stored so as to prevent mechanical damage from occurring. Any person who is involved with working on or breaking into a refrigerant circuit should hold a current valid certificatefrom an industry- accredited assessment authority, which authorizes their competence to handle refrigerants safelyinaccordance with an industry-recognized assessment specification. Servicing shall only be performed as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Maintenance and repair requiring the assistance of other skilled personnel shall be carriedout under the supervision of the person competent in the use of flammable refrigerants.
Prior to beginning work on systems containing flammable refrigerants, safety checks are necessary to ensure that theriskofignition is minimized. Work shall be undertaken under a controlled procedure so as to minimize the risk of a flammablegasor vapor being present while the work is being performed. All maintenance staff and others working in the local areashall be instructed on the nature of the work being carried out. Work in confined spaces shall be avoided. The area aroundtheworkspace shall be sectioned off. Ensure that the conditions within the area have been made safe by control of flammablematerial.
The area shall be checked with an appropriate refrigerant detector prior to and during work, to ensure the technicianis aware of potentially flammable atmospheres. Ensure that the leak detection equipment being used is suitable for use withflammable refrigerants, i.e. no sparking, adequately sealed, or intrinsically safe.
If any hot work is to be conducted on the refrigeration equipment or any associated parts, appropriate fire extinguishingequipment shall be available to hand. Have a dry powder or CO² fire extinguisher adjacent to the charging area.
No person carrying out work in relation to a refrigeration system that
involves exposing any pipe work that contains or hascontained flammable
refrigerant shall use any sources of ignition in such a manner that it may
lead to the risk of fire or
explosion. All possible ignition sources, including cigarette smoking, should
be kept sufficiently far away fromthe siteofinstallation, repair, removal, and
disposal, during which flammable refrigerant can possibly be released into the
surroundingspace. Prior to work taking place, the area around the equipment
is to be surveyed to make sure that there are no flammablehazards or ignition
risks. “No Smoking” signs shall be displayed.
Ensure that the area is in the open or that it is adequately ventilated before breaking into the system or conductinganyhot work. A degree of ventilation shall continue during the period that the work is carried out. The ventilation should safelydisperse any released refrigerant and preferably expel it externally into the atmosphere
Do not apply any permanent inductive or capacitance loads to the circuit without ensuring that this will not exceedthepermissible voltage and current permitted for the equipment in use. Intrinsically safe components are the only types that canbe worked on while in the presence of a flammable atmosphere.
The test apparatus shall be at the correct rating. Replacecomponents only with parts specified by the manufacturer. Other parts may result in the ignition of refrigerant in theatmosphere from a leak.
Check that cabling will not be subject to wear, corrosion, excessive pressure, vibration, sharp edges, or any other adverseenvironmental effects.
The check shall also take into account the effects of aging or continual vibration fromsources suchas compressors or fans.
Under no circumstances shall potential sources of ignition be used in the search for or detection of refrigerant leaks. Ahalide torch (or any other detector using a naked flame) shall not be used.
Electronic leak detectors shall be used to detect flammable refrigerants, but the sensitivity may not be adequate, or mayneed re-calibration (Detection equipment shall be calibrated in a refrigerant-free area). Ensure that the detector is not apotential source of ignition and is suitable for the refrigerant used. Leak detection equipment shall be set at a percentageofthe LFL of the refrigerant and shall be calibrated to the refrigerant employed and the appropriate percentage of gas (25%maximum) is confirmed. Leak detection fluids are suitable for use with most refrigerants but the use of detergents containing chlorine shall be avoided as the chlorine may react with the refrigerant and corrode the copper pipe-work. If aleak is suspected, all naked flames shall be removed/extinguished. If a leak of refrigerant is found which requires brazing, all of the refrigerants shall be recovered from the system, or isolated (by means of shut-off valves) in a part of the systemremote from the leak. Oxygen-free nitrogen (OFN) shall then be purged through the system both before and duringthebrazing process.
When breaking into the refrigerant circuit to make repairs – or for any other purpose – conventional procedures shall beused. However, it is important that best practice is followed since flammability is a consideration. The following procedureshall be adhered to:
- remove refrigerant;
- purge the circuit with inert gas;
- evacuate;
- purge again with inert gas;
- open the circuit by cutting or brazing
The refrigerant charge shall be recovered into the correct recovery cylinders. The system shall be “flushed” with OFNtorender the unit safe. This process may need to be repeated several times. Compressed air or oxygen shall not be usedfor this task. Flushing shall be achieved by breaking the vacuum in the system with OFN and continuing to fill until the working pressure is achieved, then venting to the atmosphere, and finally pulling down to a vacuum. This process shall berepeated until no refrigerant is within the system.
When the final OFN charge is used, the system shall be vented downtoatmospheric pressure to enable work to take place. This operation is absolutely vital if brazing operations on the pipeworkare to take place. Ensure that the outlet for the vacuum pump is not close to any ignition sources and there is ventilationavailable
In addition to conventional charging procedures, the following requirements shall be followed.
Ensure that contamination of different refrigerants does not occur when using charging equipment. Hoses or lines shall beas short as possible to minimize the amount of refrigerant contained in them.
Cylinders shall be kept upright. Ensure that the refrigeration system is earthed prior to charging the system with refrigerant. Label the system when charging is complete (if not already).
Extreme care shall be taken not to overfill the refrigeration system. Prior to recharging the system, it shall be pressure tested with OFN. The system shall be leak tested on completionof charging but prior to commissioning.
A follow-up leak test shall be carried out prior to leaving the site.
Before carrying out this procedure, it is essential that the technician is completely familiar with the equipment andall itsdetail. It is recommended good practice that all refrigerants are recovered safely. Prior to the task being carried out, anoil and refrigerant sample shall be taken in case analysis is required prior to the re-use of reclaimed refrigerant. It is essential that electrical power is available before the task is commenced. Become familiar with the equipment and its operation. Isolate system electrically.
Before attempting the procedure ensure that:
- mechanical handling equipment is available, if required, for handling refrigerant cylinders;
- all personal protective equipment is available and being used correctly;
- the recovery process is supervised at all times by a competent person;
- recovery equipment and cylinders conform to the appropriate standards.
Pump down the refrigerant system, if possible.
If a vacuum is not possible, make a manifold so that refrigerant can be removed from various parts of the system.
Make sure that the cylinder is situated on the scales before recovery takes place. Start the recovery machine and operate it in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not overfill cylinders (No more than 80 % volume liquid charge).
Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the cylinder, even temporarily.
When the cylinders have been filled correctly and the process completed, make sure that the cylinders and the equipment are removed from the site promptly and all the isolation valves on the equipment are closed off. Recovered refrigerant shall not be charged into another refrigeration system unless it has been cleaned and checked.
Equipment shall be labeled stating that it has been de-commissioned and emptied of refrigerant.
The label shall be datedand signed. Ensure that there are labels on the equipment stating the equipment contains flammable refrigerant.
When removing refrigerant from a system, either for servicing or decommissioning, it is recommended good practicethat all refrigerants are removed safely.
When transferring refrigerant into cylinders, ensure that only appropriate refrigerant recovery cylinders are employed.
Ensure that the correct number of cylinders for holding the total systemcharge are available.
All cylinders to be used are designated for the recovered refrigerant and labeled for that refrigerant (i.e. special cylinders for the recovery of refrigerant). Cylinders shall be complete with pressure relief valves and associated shut-off valves in good working order. Empty recovery cylinders are evacuated and, if possible, cooled before recovery occurs. Therecovery equipment shall be in good working order with a set of instructions concerning the equipment that is at handandshall be suitable for the recovery of flammable refrigerants. In addition, a set of calibrated weighing scales shall be available and in good working order. Hoses shall be complete with leak-free disconnect couplings and in good condition. Before using the recovery machine, check that it is in satisfactory working order, has been properly maintained, andthat any associated electrical components are sealed to prevent ignition in the event of a refrigerant release. Consult the manufacturer if in doubt.
The recovered refrigerant shall be returned to the refrigerant supplier in the correct recovery cylinder, and the relevant
Waste Transfer Note arranged. Do not mix refrigerants in recovery units and especially not in cylinders. If compressors or compressor oils are to be removed, ensure that they have been evacuated to an acceptable level toensure that flammable refrigerant does not remain within the lubricant. The evacuation process shall be carriedout prior to returning the compressor to the suppliers. Only electric heating to the compressor body shall be employedtoaccelerate this process. When oil is drained from a system, it shall be carried out safely

SAFETY PROTECTIONS
Water-full safety alarm and shut-off the protection function
When the water volume exceeds its alarm level in the chassis, you will hear
warning sounds and the water-full iconwill light up in the display. When this
happens, you need to drain the water and re-start the unit (For more
information about howtodrain, refer to the “Drainage Instruction” please). If
the unit is not shut down manually, the unit will recover to the original
operating status automatically once the water is fully drained. Connect to the
power to re-start the unit again.
Anti-frozen protection function
Under COOLING mode, when the compressor continuously runs for over 10 minutes,
if the tube temperature is ≤2ºC/36 ºF for 20 seconds, the anti-frozen
protection function will be on, E4 will be shown on the LED display, the
compressor and water wheel motor will stop working, but the upper fan remains
running. If the tube temperature is ≥8ºC /46 ºF, the unit will stop the anti-
frozen protection and recover to the original working condition. The
compressor will re-start working with 3 minutes delay for protection.
Delay protection function of compressor
This unit offers restart protection to the compressor. Except that the
compressor may start immediately when the unit isenergized the first time.
There is a 3-minute delay re start protection after the compressor is shut
down.
Coil and room temperature sensor failure:
Detect sensor failure at the beginning of power-on or power-on state. When a
sensor failure is detected at the beginning of power-on, it will immediately
enter the failure state. If it returns tonormal after this, it will enter the
standby state.
AIR CONDITIONER USE
IMPORTANT: If the air conditioner has been tilted on its side, wait 24 hours before turning on the air conditioner toallowthe oil to return to the compressor. This will prevent the air conditioner from failing prematurely. Hold the handles on the side panels to move the unit in an upright position.
NOTE: Do not hold the louver. Maintain the unit in the upright position whether you are handling or moving it. Drain the water in the unit completely before handling or moving it, in order to prevent water leakage, andwet thefloor.
DRAIN THE INTERNAL WATER
You will need a small pan to catch the water coming out of the water tank. Once the water tank is empty, the unit will resume operation within a few minutes.
MANUAL DRAINAGE
Once the unit shuts down upon water-full, turn off the unit and then unplug
it. Put the tray below the water outlet at the back of the unit. Screw off the
drain cover, and unplug the water stopper for water to flow into the tray.
Plug in the stopper and screw the drain cover tightly onto the water outlet
after drainage.
Protect the drain cover and water stopper properly. Move the unit carefully to avoid leakage. Tilt the unit slightly backwards when draining. Block the drain hole as soon as possible before the tray is full and cannot hold all water in the unit. This is to prevent waterleakage and wetting the floor or carpet. The water stopper and drain cover must be tightly installed, to avoid condensation to wet the floor or carpet whentheunit re starts working
CONTINUOUS DRAINAGE
Screw off the drain coverr & unplug the water stopper. Connect the drain hole
with a φ13mm drain hose, as deep as possible to avoid leakage. NOTE: If you
need the plastic drainage pipe, please purchase it with an outer diameter of
13mmand length accordingtothe drainage distance. Pull the drain hose to the
bathroom or outdoors.
Notes:
The drain hose must be installed when there’s no water in the tray. It is
suggested not to use continuous drainage when the unit is in COOL mode, to
ensure enough water recyclingis intheunit to enhance the system cooling
effects. It is suggested to adopt continuous drainage when the unit is in HEAT
mode, to avoid frequent drainage. Put the drain hose in an inaccessible place,
not higher than the drainage hole, and keep the drain hose straight without
anyflexure. Keep the drain cover and its stopper properly when continuous
drainage is performed.
