When using a 24V thermostat, please refer to the non-communicating wiring
diagrams that follow:
Connection method C:
NOTICE
This equipment uses B functionality. This terminal is energized for heating
functionality. Please ensure that thermostat configuration is set up for B
functionality. Note: These methods are for use with an ACiQ outdoor unit and a
third party indoor unit or cased coil and gas furnace.
NOTICE
The use of shielded communication or thermostat wire is not required, but is
recommended where separation from high voltage conductors can not be
maintained, or in areas with high electrical noise. The shield and drain
conductor must be grounded at the outdoor unit and stripped back and taped at
the indoor unit. Grounding at both ends results in an increase of noise
transmitted onto the signal wires.

AIR EVACUATION
NOTICE
When opening valve stems, turn the hexagonal wrench until it hits against the
stopper. Do not try to force the valve to open further. open valves slowly
until your hear refrigerant, allow pressure to equalize before opening fully.
Open large vapor line valve first.
Preparations and precautions
Air and foreign matter in the refrigerant circuit can cause abnormal rises in
pressure, which can damage the air conditioner, reduce its efficiency, and
cause injury. Use a vacuum pump and manifold gauge to evacuate the refrigerant
circuit, removing any non-condensable gas and moisture from the system.
Evacuation should be performed upon initial installation and when unit is
relocated.
Evacuation Instructions
1. Connect the charge hose of the manifold gauge to service port on the
outdoor unit’s low pressure valve.
2. Connect another charge hose from the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump.
3. Open the Low Pressure side of the manifold gauge. Keep the High Pressure
side closed.
4. Tighten refrigerant valve caps hand tight plus flat to ensure there are no
vacuum leaks.
5. Turn on the vacuum pump to evacuate the system.
6. Run the vacuum for at least 15 minutes, or until the Compound Meter reads
-76cmHG(-105Pa) or 500 microns.
7. Close the Low Pressure side of the manifold gauge, and turn off the vacuum
pump.
8. Wait for 5 minutes, then check that there has been no change in system
pressure.
9. If there is a change in system pressure, refer to Gas Leak Check section
for information on how to check for leaks. If there is no change in system
pressure, unscrew the cap from the packed valve (high pressure valve).
10.Insert hexagonal wrench into the packed valve (high pressure valve) and
open the valve by turning the wrench in a 1/4 counterclockwise turn. Listen
for gas to exit the system, then close the valve after 5 seconds.
11. Watch the Pressure Gauge for one minute to make sure that there is no
change in pressure. The Pressure Gauge should read slightly higher than
atmospheric pressure.
12. Remove the charge hose from the service port.

NOTE ON ADDING REFRIGERANT
CAUTION
DO NOT mix refrigerant types.
Some systems require additional charging depending on pipe lengths. The
standard pipe length varies according to local regulations. For example, in
North America, the standard pipe length is 7.5m (25′). In other areas, the
standard pipe length is 5m (16`). The refrigerant should be charged from the
service port on the outdoor unit’s low pressure valve. The additional
refrigerant to be charged can be calculated using the following formula:
22
TEST RUN
CAUTION
Failure to perform the test run may result in unit damage, property damage, or
personal injury.
Before test run
A test run must be performed after the entire system has been completely
installed. Confirm the following points before performing the test: a) Indoor
and outdoor units are properly installed. b) Piping and wiring are properly
connected. c) No obstacles near the inlet and outlet of the unit that might
cause poor performance or product malfunction. d) Refrigeration system does
not leak. e) Drainage system is unimpeded and draining to a safe location. f)
Heating insulation is properly installed. g) Grounding wires are properly
connected. h) Length of the piping and additional refrigerant capacity have
been recorded. i) Power voltage is the correct voltage for the air conditioner
Test run Instructions
1. Open both the liquid and gas service valves. 2. Turn on the main power
switch and allow the
unit to warm up. 3. Set the air conditioner to COOL mode. 4. For the Indoor
Unit
a.Double check to see if the room temperature is being registered correctly.
b.Check to see that the drainage system is unimpeded and draining smoothly.
c.Ensure there is no vibration or abnormal noise during operation.
5. For the Outdoor Unit a. Check to see if the refrigeration system is
leaking. b. Make sure there is no vibration or abnormal noise during
operation. c. Ensure the wind, noise, and water generated by the unit do not
disturb your neighbors or pose a safety hazard.
6. Drainage Test a. Ensure the drainpipe flows smoothly. New buildings should
perform this test before finishing the ceiling. b. Turn on the main power
switch and run the air conditioner in COOL mode. c. Check to see that the
water is discharged. It may take up to one minute before the unit begins to
drain depending on the drainpipe. d. Make sure that there are no leaks in any
of the piping. e. Stop the air conditioner. Turn off the main power switch and
reinstall the test cover.
