Features
- 360 DC inverter driven technology
With 360 all DC inverter driven technology, realize the compressor driving direction the same with rotary direction. Optimize energy-saving, and keep the compressor more stable and high efficient during operation. It can also guarantee more stable temperature control and reduce noise. - Pressure sensor
Inside the outdoor unit is the pressure sensor, which defects low pressure in cooling mode and high pressure in heating mode. The intelligent control can be realized by calculating the indoor coil temperature through the pressure valve. - Smaller outdoor dimension for installation flexibility
The side-discharge outdoor unit, saves roughly 36% more space than traditional air conditioners. More conveniently, it can be installed on wall, yard or on the roof. - Convenient Installation
The stop valve and connecting pipes are connected by welding, and indoor unit of other brands can freely be connected with this outdoor unit. - Comfortable temperature control
DC inverter power control uses its full capacity at startup to cool/warm quickly. As soon as the set temperature is reached, it carefully adjusts current frequency to prevent temperature fluctuation and energy loss.

Oil trap
When the indoor unit is lower than outdoor unit and height difference is larger than 5m, set an oil trap every 5m (height difference) on suction piping.
NOTE:
- To avoid storing too much oil in the oil trap, the oil trap should be as short as possible.
- The horizontal piping should slope down along the refrigerant flow direction, to bring the oil back to compressor, the slope is about 1/200 to1/250.
- In order to ensure cooling/heating performance better, the refrigerant piping should be as short and straight as possible.
Air tight test
- Do use nitrogen when performing air-tight test.
Connect the gauge manifold using charging hoses with a nitrogen cylinder to the check joints of the liquid line and the gas line stop valves. Perform the air-tight test. Don't open the gas line stop valves. Apply nitrogen gas pressure of 550 psig (3.8MPa). Check for any gas leakage at the flare nut connections, or brazed parts by gas leak detector or foaming agent. It is OK if gas pressure does not decrease. After the air tight test, release nitrogen gas.
Additional refrigerant charge
Although refrigerant has been charged into this unit, additional refrigerant charge is required according to the piping length.
- The additional refrigerant precharge quantity should be determined and charged into the system according to the following procedure.
- Record the additional refrigerant quantity in order to facilitate maintenance and servicing activities. Refrigerant charge before shipment (W0 (oz.))
W0 is the outdoor unit refrigerant charge before shipment; Xg is additional refrigerant outdoor unit needed to charge according to piping length during installation.

|
The compressor starts or stops frequently | The air inletand outlet has been blocked. | Remove block obstacles. |
Poor cooling/heating |
|
|
Sound from deforming parts |
During systemstarting or stopping, a sound might be heard. However, this is due to thermal deformation of plastic parts. |
It is not abnormal, and the soundwill disappear soon. |

Troubleshooting according to fault codes
When the air conditioner failure occurs, the fault code will display on the control board.
How to check fault codes
Outdoor unit
24K
DC-Inverter unitary (Main control board upside-down)
- Fault code displayed by LED lamps on outdoor main control board.
- There are 3 LED lamps on control board, LED1, LED2 and LED3.
- LED1 indicates fault code represented by 2-digit number,
- LED2 indicates fault code represented by single digit number,
- LED3 indicates outdoor drive control fault.
- When LED3 is off, LED1 and LED 2 indicate main control fault code.
- When LED3 is on, LED1 and LED 2 indicate drive control fault code.
- When LED3 is flickering and LED1, LED 2 are all off, it indicates the compressor is preheating. Failures display with 5s interval. It means LED will be off for 5s to report the next fault code. System protection codes display method is the same with main control fault code.
- LED lamps will be off when there is no failure, protection or preheating.
