(In Case of 5 to 20HP) * By turning ON #6 of DSW4 on PCB1 and #1 of DSW1 on ISPM, emergency operation is started. (In Case of 24 and 30HP) * Control of the emergency operation is same with normal control except the inverter compressor stoppage. b. Operating Condition The constant speed compressor is forced to be stopped for compressor protection under the condition below. Total Capacity of Thermo-ON indoor units < 50% of Outdoor Unit Capacity In case of the above condition, the compressor is operated and stopped repeatedly, and it may cause the compressor failure. Therefore, the compressor is forced to be stopped to protect it. NOTE: If the printed circuit board for inverter (PCB3) is damaged, this is not available. Setting airflow of indoor unit is keeping during enforced stoppage. Therefore, it is recommended that setting airflow is Lo to avoid the person in the room feels cold. c. Method of Emergency Operation Checking Before Emergency Operation. * Measure insulation resistance of the inverter compressor. Do not perform the emergency operation when the insulation resistance is 0. There is a possibility that refrigerant oil may be oxidized, if the emergency operation is performed, the other compressor is damaged. * In case of total capacity of Thermo-ON indoor units are more than 50% of outdoor unit capacity, emergency operation is available. * In this emergency operation, frequency of the compressor is not controlled at each 1Hz. Therefore, alarm code 07, 43, 44, 45 or 47 may be indicated on LCD. Details of alarm codes are shown in the alarm code table (page 1-23). * This emergency operation does not provide sufficient cooling and heating capacity. * This method is an emergency operation temporarily when the inverter compressor is damaged. Therefore, change the new one as soon as possible. * Turn OFF #1 of DSW7 on PCB1 and #1 of DSW1 on PCB3 after changing the new compressor. (In Case of 5 to 20HP) Turn OFF #6 of DSW4 on PCB1 and #1 of DSW1 on ISPM after changing the new compressor. (In Case of 24 and 30HP) If this setting is not performed, the inverter compressor will be damaged. d. Emergency Operation * Turn OFF all the power source switches. * Disconnect the wiring from the inverter compressor. Insulate the faston terminals for inverter compressor wires by insulation tape. * Set the No.1 of DSW7 on the PCB1 and No.1 of DSW1 on the PCB3 at the ON side. (In Case of 5 to 20HP) Set #6 of DSW4 on PCB1 and #1 of DSW1 on ISPM at the ON side. (In Case of 24 and 30HP) * Turn ON all the power source switches. * Operate the system by remote control switches. * The system is stopped by turning OFF all the remote control switches or turning OFF all the power source switches.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Additional Information for CHECK LIST ON COMPRESSOR


Check Item 1&2 Additional Information (Mechanism of Compressor Failure) The liquid refrigerant return volume to the compressor is controlled by the discharge gas temperature Td1 when only No.1 compressor is operating. If Td1 and Td2 are reversely connected, the liquid refrigerant return volume will become small by detecting the temperatures even if the actual discharge gas temperature is high. Therefore, this abnormal overheating operation will result in insulation failure of the motor winding. Overcurrent control (operating frequency control) is performed by detecting current by the current sensor. In this case, winding insulation failure will occur, since control is not available in spite of actually high current. The current sensor checks phase and adjusts output electrical wave in addition to the above mentioned items. If fault occurs, the output electrical wave becomes unstable giving stress to the motor winding, resulting in winding insulation failure. During a cooling operation, Pd is controlled by fan revolution of outdoor unit, and Td and SH are controlled by MV of each indoor units or MVB for FX series. During a heating operation, Td and SH are controlled by MV1 and MV2. If expansion valves are incorrectly connected, correct control is not available, resulting in compressor seizure depending on liquid refrigerant returning conditions or motor winding insulation failure depending on overheating conditions. If the refrigeration cycle and electrical system are incorrectly connected, abnormally low suction pressure operation is maintained or abnormally high discharge pressure operation is maintained, resulting in giving stress to the compressor, since their correct control is not available. ditto The compressor may be locked due to the liquid return operation during the cooling operation. In the case that the contacting resistance becomes big, voltage imbalance among each phase will cause abnormal overcurrent. In this case, overcurrent will occur, efficiency will decrease or the motor winding will be excessively heated. In the case, it will result in motor burning or compressor seizure.

OPTIONAL FUNCTION
(4.4 Remote Control Switch)
4.4.5 Optional Functions of Remote Control Switch (1) Removal of Heating Temperature Calibration This function is utilized when the temperature settings of the remote control switch and the suction air temperature of the indoor unit are required to be equal. In standard heating operation, the suction air temperature is higher than the room temperature, therefore the suction air temperature is calibrated -4C. (Indicated Setting Temperature = Inlet Air Temperature -4C Return to 0C) This is useful when the thermistor at the suction side of an indoor unit is removed and installed in another place. The indicated setting temperature and the suction air temperature after removal of heating temperature calibration are as shown below.

(2) Circulator Function at Heating Thermo-OFF In case that the fan speed is changed to LOW tap at heating Thermo-OFF, there is a case that the room air is stratified because warm air stagnates near the ceiling. In this case, it is recommended that the circulator function explained below be utilized. <Circulator Function> The function keeps the fan speed at thermo-OFF at the same level as thermo-ON. In this case, air movement in the room will be kept on the same level as thermo-ON, ensuring a homogenous air distribution. In the case that an Auto Louver is equipped, this operation will be also held on when the heating is turned thermo-OFF. NOTE: Perceptions of coolness, heat and air flow are subject to personal tastes and behaviors. It is therefore recommended to discuss this with customers thoroughly and then to set the unit accordingly. (3) Enforced 3 Minutes Minimum Operation Time of Compressor When a compressor frequently starts and stops in short intervals, this function should be used to guard the compressor. By setting this function, the mode of a minimum 3 minutes operation will be added. (The mode of a minimum 3 minutes stoppage is standard.) In case of SET-FREE, this function is standard even when setting is not available. NOTE: When the safety device is activated or the ON/OFF switch is pressed, the compressor is stopped immediately.

Burnt-out Compressor due to Insufficient Refrigerant Charge

Question and Answer for Field Work Example 1: Burnt-out Compressor due to Insufficient Refrigerant Charge

[Phenomenon]
After commissioning, alarm code 08 sometimes occurred and compressors were burnt out after 2 month operation.

[Cause]
Refrigerant piping work was performed during summer season. Additional refrigerant was not sufficiently charged from the discharge side. This insufficient refrigerant charge resulted in discharge gas overheating and oil deterioration finally due to separated operation despite 08 alarm.

[Countermeasure]
1. The compressor was replaced with a new one. 2. Correct refrigerant amount was charged according to refrigerant piping length and connected indoor units.

[Remarks]
Additional Refrigerant Charging: Open the liquid stop valve slightly when the additional refrigerant is charged from the check joint of the liquid stop valve (discharge side) during the cooling operation. If the liquid valve is fully open, it is difficult to charge the additional refrigerant. Do not charge refrigerant from the gas stop valve.

Insufficient Cooling Performance When A Long Piping Is Applied

Question and Answer for Field Work Example 2: Insufficient Cooling Performance When A Long Piping Is Applied

[Phenomenon]
Sufficient cooling was not available for an indoor unit which located at the farthest position.

[Cause]
In the case that an outdoor unit is located 20 meters lower than indoor units, resetting of the dip switch, DSW3 is required. However, no setting was performed. Therefore, the target discharge pressure was not increased, resulting in insufficient cooling performance for the indoor.

Question and Answer for Field Work Example 3: Abnormally High Operating Sound [In-the-Ceiling Type Indoor Unit]

[Phenomenon]
Operating sound during Hi speed was abnormally high.

[Cause]
The indoor units was installed without ducts of inlet side and outlet side. Due to almost no external static pressure, abnormally big air volume was supplied, resulting in higher air speed through the heat exchanger.

Damper Indoor Unit

Air Filter

[Countermeasure]
In order to reduce air flow, a plate as a damper at the discharge side was added. Another solution is at inlet side and outlet side.

[Remarks]
Please note that running current is increased when no external pressure is given to the indoor unit, resulting in overheating.

Not Cooling Well due to Insufficient Installation Space for Outdoor Unit

Question and Answer for Field Work Example 5: Not Cooling Well due to Insufficient Installation Space for Outdoor Unit

[Phenomenon]
Cooling operation was well performed through the intermediate season. However, the cooling operation was not well available when the outdoor temperature was higher than 35C.

[Cause]
As the outdoor units were installed without a sufficient installation space, the hot discharge air from other outdoor units was circulated. In this case, though the outdoor temperature was 35C, the actual suction air temperature was nearly 50C and Protection System from Excessively High Suction Pressure was activated, the frequency of the compressor was decreased and the cooling capacity was also decreased accordingly. As the outdoor units in-line were installed back to back with a distance of 600mm between each outdoor units back, the hot discharged air from other outdoor units was circulated.

[Countermeasure]
To protect the unit from a short circuit, fences were mounted at the discharge air side as shown below.

FIELD WORK INSTRUCTION 5.6 Attention for SET-FREE FXG/FX3 Series

The SET-FREE FXG/FX3 series has been designed for the system to provide simultaneous cooling and heating operations during intermediate seasons and the refrigerant cycle is controlled according to heat balance of cooling and heating. Therefore, pay attention to the followings for the selection of installing sites and the installation work. As especially, this SET-FREE FXG series is operated by mixed refrigerant R407C (FXG), special attention is required. Follow the items below. * The SET-FREE FXG/FX3 series is for general office building air conditioning. Therefore, it is recommended that different air conditioning systems be selected in a place where systems are utilized for (i) machine rooms or computer rooms, providing big heat load and (ii) thermostatic chamber, requiring precise temperature control. * By operating this unit with other cooling/heating equipment at the same time, thermo-ON/OFF may occur frequently or the heat load change may be big, and it may cause the decrease of the unit performance or shorten the lifetime of the unit. Do not install the unit in a place where operation with other cooling/heating equipment is required. <Attention for System Design of FXG/FX3 Series> (1) Installing Site: Do not install the unit in such places; (a) where temperature difference among rooms is excessively big and the heat load when cooling and heating is excessively big during simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation. (b) where the heat load change of a room is big and thermo-ON/OFF may occur frequently especially during simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation. (c) where temporary capacity decrease according to ON/OFF operation of other rooms is not allowed. (d) where starting up in simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation mode is always required. (2) Piping Work: Do not perform the piping work as follows; (a) The piping length between the farthest indoor unit and the last multi-kit is excessively long. (b) The CH units are used individually for each indoor unit in a same room. (c) There is a height difference between CH units. Refer to the followings for the attention in detail. (Observe the attentions common to FSG/FS3 series.) <Attention for Simultaneous COOL/HEAT Operation> (1) Capacity of Simultaneous COOL/HEAT Operation: [Phenomenon] During the simultaneous cooling and heating operation, the capacity comparatively decreases when compared with the capacity whilst operating all the indoor units at the same mode. The capacity decrease mentioned above should be taken into consideration when in actual operation, especially for the small capacity units (0.8 to 1.5HP).

[Countermeasure] Perform the heat load calculation with the decreased capacity as shown in the graph in page 5-8. Do not install the unit in such a place where temperature difference among rooms is big and the heat load when cooling and heating is excessively big during simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation. (2) Influence by ON/OFF Operation of Other Rooms: [Phenomenon] During the simultaneous cooling and heating operation, the actual capacity of the indoor units in operation is decreased for a short time due to the influence of heat balance when the cooling or heating operation when some other indoor units is started or stopped, or thermo-ON/OFF. [Countermeasure] The following conditions and the system as shown below are not appropriate for FXG/FX3 series, since other indoor units may be influenced by the indoor unit. Therefore, it is recommended that different air conditioning systems be selected. (a) There is a room where the heat load change is big and ON/OFF operation of indoor unit is excessively frequent. (b) where capacity decrease for a short time according to ON/OFF operation of other rooms is not allowed. However, this system can be applied to a room where gradual heat load change is given, such as a heating operation in the morning, cooling operation during daytime and heating operation in the evening. [Example] In case that the mainly cooling operation is changed to the mainly heating operation especially when the big capacity indoor unit (ex.: 5HP) is stopped at cooling operation or thermo-OFF, the outdoor heat exchanger is changed from condenser to evaporator functions and the cooling capacity of other indoor units in continuous cooling operation is excessively decreased.

(3) Piping Length of Farthest Indoor Unit: [Phenomenon] During the simultaneous cooling and heating operation, the cooling capacity of the farthest indoor unit is decreased when the farthest indoor unit is in cooling operation and the second farthest indoor unit is in heating operation. [Countermeasure] It is recommended that the piping length between the multi-kit and the farthest indoor unit be within 5m. In case that the piping length between the multi-kit and the farthest indoor unit is longer than 5m, use the T-branch at only the liquid pipe instead of liquid multi-kit. The direction of the T-branch is as shown below. Purchase the T-branch locally for this piping work and prepare at each site. If the diameter of the pipe between the outdoor unit and CH unit is different, use a reducer.

(4) Start-Up in Simultaneous COOL/HEAT Operation Mode: [Phenomenon] In case of starting up in the simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation mode when the outdoor temperature is low, the capacity increase time of the unit operation is longer in comparison with the only cooling or heating operation mode (especially in starting up of small capacity operation; 1HP cooling and 1HP heating [Example]). [Countermeasure] Do not install the unit where starting up in simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation mode is always required. In case that the simultaneous COOL/HEAT operation is required, it is recommended that individual refrigerant systems be applied for cooling and heating, or the starting up is performed in only cooling or heating operation mode, and change over the operation mode to the simultaneous COOL/ HEAT mode when 10 to 20 minutes have passed after starting up operation.

<Attention for Automatic COOL/HEAT Operation> In the case that the indoor units are operated under an automatic cooling/heating operation by pressing the AUTO COOL/HEAT switch, pay attention to the followings. (1) Interference of Cooling Unit and Heating Unit [Phenomenon] In the case that more than 2 indoor units are closely installed and operated in the same room, each indoor unit interferes with the next unit, resulting in inefficient operation. [Countermeasure] Do not use CH units individually for each indoor units in a same room. In such a case, connect the indoor units in a same room to one CH unit and operate indoor units in the same operation mode, if it is possible.

<Attention for Installing CH Unit> Before installing the CH units, pay attention to the service access and sound. (1) The CH unit consists of mechanical components such as solenoid valves in order to change the operation mode from cooling to heating or heating to cooling respectively. Therefore, please provide a service access door (minimum of 600600mm) beneath the CH unit. (2) Flowing sound of refrigerant may be heard from the CH unit when the solenoid valve in the CH unit is activated. Therefore, take the following action to minimize the sound. * Install the CH unit inside the ceiling. As for the ceiling material, select a material like a plaster board which minimizes operation sound. * Do not install the CH units in near a bed room or hospital room.

FIELD WORK INSTRUCTION 5.8 Caution on Refrigerant Leakage

(1) Maximum Permissible Concentration of HCFC Gas The refrigerant R407C (or R22), charged in the SET-FREE FSG, FS1/FS3, FS5 and FXG/FX3 system, is an incombustible and non-toxic gas. However, if leakage occurs and gas fills a room, it may cause suffocation. The maximum permissible concentration of HCFC gas, R407C in air is 0.31 kg/m3, R22 in air is 0.3 kg/m3, according to the refrigeration and air conditioning facility standard (KHK S 0010) by the KHK (High Pressure Gas Protection Association) Japan. Therefore, some effective measure must be taken to lower the R407C or R22 concentration in air below 0.3 kg/m3, in case of leakage. (2) Calculation of Refrigerant Concentration (a) Calculate the total quantity of refrigerant R (kg) charged in the system connecting all the indoor units of rooms to be air conditioned. (b) Calculate the room volume V (m3) of each objective room. (c) Calculate the refrigerant concentration C (kg/m3) of the room according to the following equation. R: Total Quantity of Charged Refrigerant (kg) = C: Refrigerant Concentration V: Room Volume (m3) 0.3 (kg/m3) (3) Countermeasure for Refrigerant Leakage According to KHK Standards The facility shall be arranged as follows referring to the KHK standards, so that the refrigerant concentration will be below 0.3 kg/m3. (a) Provide a shutterless opening which will allow fresh air to circulate into the room. (b) Provide a doorless opening of 0.15% or more size to the floor area. (c) Provide a ventilator, linked with a gas leak detector, of 0.4 m3/min. or more ventilating capacity per Japanese Refrigeration Ton (= compressor displacement m3/h / 8.5 (R22) or 9.8 (R407C)) of the air conditioning system utilizing refrigerant R22. <FSG, FSG1/FS3, FS5 Series> RAS-5FSG ............................ 2.15 / 2.15 ton (50Hz / 60Hz) RAS-5FS3 ............................. 2.48 / 2.48 ton RAS-8FSG ............................ 3.74 / 3.98 ton RAS-8FS3 ............................. 4.31 / 4.59 ton RAS-10FSG .......................... 4.01 / 4.31 ton RAS-10FS3 ........................... 4.63 / 4.97 ton RAS-16FSG .......................... 5.78 / 6.44 ton RAS-16FS3 ........................... 6.66 / 7.42 ton RAS-20FSG .......................... 7.36 / 8.35 ton RAS-20FS3 ........................... 8.49 / 9.63 ton RAS-24FSG1 ........................ 8.72 / 9.96 ton RAS-24FS5 ........................... 10.05 / 11.48 ton RAS-30FSG1 ........................ 10.55 / 12.17 ton RAS-30FS5 ........................... 12.16 / 14.03 ton <FXG/FX3 Series> RAS-8FXG ............................ 3.74 ton (50Hz) RAS-8FX3 ............................. 4.31 ton RAS-10FXG .......................... 4.01 ton RAS-10FX3 ........................... 4.63 ton (d) Pay a special attention to the place, such as a basement, etc., where refrigerant can stay, since refrigerant is heavier than air.
