6.2. Drain piping work

1. Ensure that the drain piping is downward (pitch of more than 1/100) to the
outdoor (discharge) side. Do not provide any trap or irregularity on the way.
2. Ensure that any cross-wise drain piping is less than 20 m [65 ft] (excluding
the difference of elevation). If the drain piping is long, provide metal braces to
prevent it from waving. Never provide any air vent pipe. Otherwise drain may
be ejected.
3. Put the supplied strainer at the bottom of the drain pan on the side of the
body frame, and connect the supplied drain hose to the end connection.
Tighten this end connection using the supplied hose hand.

Precautions on electrical wiring
Warning:
Electrical work should be done by qualified electrical engineers in accord-
ance with "Engineering Standards For Electrical Installation" and supplied
installation manuals. Special circuits should also be used. If the power cir-
cuit lacks capacity or has an installation failure, it may cause a risk of elec-
tric shock or fire.
1. Be sure to take power from the special branch circuit.
2. Be sure to install an earth leakage breaker to the power.
3. Install the unit to prevent that any of the control circuit cables (remote control-
ler, transmission cables) is brought in direct contact with the power cable out-
side the unit.
4. Ensure that there is no slack on all wire connections.
5. Some cables (power, remote controller, transmission cables) above the ceil-
ing may be bitten by mouses. Use as many metal pipes as possible to insert
the cables into them for protection.
6. Never connect the power cable to leads for the transmission cables. Other-
wise the units would be broken.
7. Be sure to connect control cables to the indoor unit, remote controller, and
the outdoor unit.
8. Select control cables from the conditions given in page 9.
Caution:
Be sure to ground the indoor unit. Do not connect the grounding cable to
any gas pipe, water pipe, lightening rod, or telephone earth cable. Incom-
plete grounding may cause a risk of electric shock.
Types of control cables
1. Wiring transmission cables
• Types of transmission cables: Shielding wire CVVS or CPEVS
• Cable diameter: More than 1.25 mm
• Maximum wiring length: Within 200 m [656ft]
• Maximum length of transmission lines for centralized control and indoor/out-
door transmission lines (Maximum length via indoor units): 500 m [1640ft]
MAX
The maximum length of the wiring between power supply unit for transmis-
sion lines (on the transmission lines for centralized control) and each outdoor
unit and system controller is 200 m [656ftt]
2. Remote control cables
• M-NET Remote Controller
Kind of remote control cable Sheathed 2-core cable (unshielded)
0.3 to 1.25 mm
Cable diameter
(0.75 to 1.25 mm
When 10 m [32ft] is exceeded, use cable with
Remarks the same specifications as 1. Wiring transmis-
sion cables.
• MA Remote Controller
Kind of remote control cable Sheathed 2-core cable (unshielded) CVV
0.3 to 1.25 mm
Cable diameter
(0.75 to 1.25 mm
Remarks Within 200 m [656ft]
* Connected with simple remote controller.

4. Use a VP30 pipe or equivalent for collecting pipe if it is needed, and pipe it
giving a downward pitch of more than 1/100.
5. Provide sufficient insulation just as for refrigerant piping.

Caution:
Pipe the drain piping to ensure that it discharges drain, and insulate it to
prevent dew condensation. A failure to the piping work may cause water
leakage and so wet your property.

7.1. Power supply wiring

• Power supply cords of appliances shall not be lighter than design 245 IEC 57
or 227 IEC 57.
• A switch with at least 3 mm [1/8 in] contact separation in each pole shall be
provided by the Air conditioner installation.
Wire size for Main Power Supply and On/Off Capacities.

• Minimum Wire size (mm /AWG)
• Switch (A)
• Breaker for Wiring (NFB)
• Breaker for Current Leakage

Caution:
Do not use anything other than the correct capacity breaker and fuse.
Using fuse, wire or copper wire with too large capacity may cause a risk of
malfunction or fire.
7.2. Connecting remote controller, indoor
and outdoor transmission cables
(Remote controller is optionally available.)
• Connect indoor unit TB5 and outdoor unit TB3. (Non-polarized 2-wire)
The "S" on indoor unit TB5 is a shielding wire connection. For specifications
about the connecting cables, refer to the outdoor unit installation manual.
• Install a remote controller following the manual supplied with the remote con-
troller.
• Connect the "1" and "2" on indoor unit TB15 to a MA remote controller. (Non-
polarized 2-wire)
• Connect the "M1" and "M2" on indoor unit TB5 to a M-NET remote controller.
(Non-polarized 2-wire)

• The MA remote controller and the M-NET remote controller cannot be used
at the same time or interchangeably.
Note:
Ensure that the wiring is not pinched when fitting the terminal box cover.
Pinching the wiring may cut it.
Caution:
Install wiring so that it is not tight and under tension. Wiring under tension
may break, or overheat and burn.
• Fix power source wiring to control box by using buffer bushing for tensile
force. (PG connection or the like.) Connect transmission wiring to transmis-
sion terminal block through the knockout hole of control box using ordinary
bushing.
• After wiring is complete, make sure again that there is no slack on the con-
nections, and attach the cover onto the control box in the reverse order
removal.
