5 - Installation

• Outdoor unit installation

•Location of the indoor unit

The unit should be installed in such a way that airflow around the

room is not hindered in any way. If possible, install the cassette

unit in the centre of the room (leave at least one meter of clea-

rance on all sides of the unit).

Air diffusion will be less efficient if the ceiling is at a height grea-

ter than 3 metres.

The cassette unit is fixed in place with two brackets and four

threaded rods (see diagram below).

ø8

630

The two brackets must be installed perfectly level.

When the cassette is in place on its supports, connect the refri- geration lines, the electrical power supply and the condensate

drainage line.

False ceiling

Infrared receiver board located behind the air

return grill.

View :

LED : OPE : Unit startup.

POWER : Unit power-up.

TIMER : Timer mode.

Emergency operation : Enables the unit to

be used without the remote control.In this

case, set the selector to "COOL" or "HEAT"

(MKH only) depending on the operating mode

required. The "OPE" LED flashes continuous-

ly when the unit is operated this way, and the

remote control is forced off-line. The tempera-

ture setpoint is set at 24°C both in the heating

and cooling mode. To revert to normal remote

control operation, set the selector to the

"NOR" position.

Main electrical power supply

Optional electric heating coil AKR01A (2kW) :

MKC (cooling only) : The heating element, instal-

led around the coil like a belt, is activated by a

relay located on the control board. Installation of

this option requires no particular modification of

the equipment.

MKH (heat pump) :The heating element is acti -

vated by a relay located on the control board.

Installation requires a separate power supply

with 3 x 1,5 mm2conductors for the 2 kW heating

element.

In this instance, the heating element serves as a

backup heating source (1str stage :

COMPRESSOR

2nd stage :

ELECTRIC HEATER

) and is regulated

according to the temperature difference between

the setpoint and the return air temperature.

The heater element is supplied with an automa-

tic reset control thermostat and a manually reset

high temperature safety device.

Condensate drainage

Condensates collected in the drain pan are piped to a tank fitted

with :

- a drainage pump, with a pumping height of 0.6 m measured

from the base of the cassette unit (see diagram opposite),

-a safety float switch that stops the entire unit in the event of a

problem with condensate drainage (pump failure, obstructed

drainage piping...).

The condensate drainage line must be insulated to prevent dro-

plets of condensation from dripping on the false ceiling.

Connect the drainage tube (ø int. 12 mm) coming from the pump

to a "P.V.C." drainage line (ø 32 mm mini). It is advisable to install

a U bend in the drainage line.Make sure that all piping joints are

leak tested.

Drainage piping should be installed with a 1% downward slope

(1cm per metre) without any rises.

6 - Condensate drainage

Verification of condensate water drainage:

Fill the drain pan and observe evacuation.

Fill the drain pan manually with water to check correct

evacuation.

Gradient > 1%

Max.0.6m

Max. 0.6 m

<--

7 - Refrigerant piping connections

Make piping runs as short as possible and avoid all

unnecessary changes in direction or elevation.

To prevent heat loss, the two lines must be insulated

separately.

Use an appropriate bending tool to form curves and avoid

flattening the refrigerant tubes.

Fix piping with pipe clamps and make sure that any eventual

pipe vibrations cannot be transmitted to the building structure.

Use refrigeration quality piping only with an operating pres-

sure rating of at least 30 bars. Never use ordinary «plum-

bing» quality piping : you MUST use special de-oxidised,

dehydrated, refrigerant quality copper piping.

Pipe lengths

• Maximum piping lengths

Note: Where the difference in elevation between the indoor

unit and the outdoor unit is greater than 5 metres, install

an oil trap every 5 metres.

The suction line must have a 2% gradient up to the compressor

on horizontal sections.

Where piping lengths are unusually long and include a large

number of oil traps, it may be necessary to adjust the compres-

sor oil charge.

•Refrigerant charge to be added per extra metre of

piping length when more than 7.5 m.

Refrigerant piping connections (FLARE connections)

To avoid alteration of unit capacities, make sure that piping

lengths and changes in elevation are kept to a strict minimum.

Before connecting the refrigerant lines, follow the procedures

below (if pre-charged connection lines are not supplied) :

-Select copper pipe diameters according to the size of unit to

be installed.

-Install the refrigeration lines, making sure that no foreign

bodies get inside the piping.

-Install the flare connectors and flare the ends of the pipes.

-Evacuate the piping. This operation, which should last at

least 15 minutes or even longer if there are large piping

lengths and changes in elevation, should be followed by a

leak test. To this effect, when the piping has been evacua-

ted, close the pressure guage tap, note the value on the

guage, then wait for 15 minutes. If the needle moves, there

is a leak in the system. Make the necessary adjustments or

repairs and repeat this procedure until the needle no longer

moves.

-Open the service valves and top up the refrigerant charge if

necessary.

in cooling and heating mode.

Installing the "diffuser-grille" assembly

• Mounting

-Remove the return air grill by springing the 4 mounting clips

and 2 hinges (fig. 1, ref. a).

-Remove the air filter (fig. 2 & 3).

-Put the grill in place under the cassette chassis (fig. 4).

-Connect the panel heater wires.

-Fit the casing and grille together using the screws (fig. 5, ref. b).

- Put the filter (fig. 6) and the return air grille (fig. 6 & 7) back in

place.

Directing the airflow

With direct air discharge, pay particular attention to the direction

in which the air is discharged.

•Air deflectors (ref a)

These deflectors should be directed so that a maximum volume is

given to the envelope of the airstream. Below, the diagram shows

the optimum position required to acheive the best possible airflow

performance.

• Integral diffuser

In the cooling mode, cool air is discharged horizontally just below

the ceiling, ensuring even air distribution in the room due to the

«coanda» effect without causing drafts.

In the heating mode, airflow can be directed so as to prevent stag-

nation at certain places in the room (stratification of hot air).

Detail A

Depending on the configuration of the room to be air conditioned,one or two of the deflectors may be left closed.

Summer position

Winter position

YES YES NO

Depending on the layout of the conditioned space, 1 or 2 dampers may be closed. This is necessary for air discharge through a

discharge satellite into an adjacent room or when the cassette unit is installed too close to a wall.

Operation in heating mode only : Although the unit has an anti-stratification

function, it may be necessary to offset the return air sensor setpoint, in cases

where ceilings are particularly high for example. This can be done with the two

microswitches on the control board. Setpoint offsetting is only effective in the

heating mode and has no effect on the cooling mode.

Unit Capacity

Total cooling capacity can be determined by using correction fac-

tors C1, C2 and C3.

Given cooling capacity = Cooling capacity at standard rating

conditions x C1 x C2 x C3.

C1 = Capacity correction factor for temperature

C2 = Capacity correction for piping length

C3 = Capacity correction for indoor unit fan speed

Capacity correction factor for temperature (C1)

*Conditions applicable for the "Low ambient line" / +19°C for the "Export

line".

Correction factors (C1) determine the instantaneous capacity (which

does not take account of defrosting on heat pump units). These

capacities may vary slightly, depending on the size of the unit.
