IMPORTANT
Use only oxygen-free nitrogen (OFN).
Triple Evacuation Procedure
A Micron or Torr gauge must be used for this procedure.
1. Discharge the oxygen-free nitrogen and evacuate the
system to a reading of 8000 Microns (8 Torr) using all
service valves.
2. Break the vacuum by allowing nitrogen into the port
connections (liquid and gas line pipes) until a positive
pressure is achieved.
3. Evacuate the system to a reading of 5000 Microns (5
Torr).
4. Break the vacuum by allowing nitrogen into the port
connections (liquid and gas line pipes) until a positive
pressure is achieved
5. Evacuate the system to a minimum reading of 500
Microns (0.5 Torr).
6. For a moisture-free system, ensure the vacuum is held
without movement for a minimum of 4 hours.
7. If vacuum fails to hold, carry out steps 2 through 6 until
vacuum holds.
Wiring Connections
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard. Can cause injury or death. Unit
must be rounded in accordance with national and local
codes.
Line voltage is present at all components when unit is
not in operation. Disconnect all remote electric power
supplies before opening access panel. Unit may have
multiple power sources.
CAUTION
All terminal connections must be made as illustrated
in the following diagrams. Improperly connected wiring
could damage unit or cause communication errors
between indoor and outdoor units.
In the U.S.A., wiring must conform with current local codes
and the current National Electric Code (NEC). In Canada,
wiring must conform with current local codes and the
current Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
Outdoor Unit
• Refer to unit nameplate for minimum circuit ampacity
and maximum over-current protection size
• Make all electrical power wiring connections at the out-
door unit
• Be sure to reattach all electrical box covers after con-
nections are complete
Indoor Unit
• All indoor units are powered by the outdoor unit
• Communication Wiring (Indoor Units 30K and Below):
Use one stranded 4-conductor wire to provide power
and communication
• Communication Wiring (Indoor Units 36K and Above):
Use one stranded 3-conductor wire to provide power
and one stranded 2-conductor wire to provide commu-
nication
• See “Table 9. Single Zone Mini-Split Wiring Guide” on
page 21 for further details on wire size and type.
NOTE: When installing a condensate pump the line voltage
will have to be broken by using the condensate
wiring or through the use of an external relay or
contactor
