13 Operation Section REFRIGERATION SYSTEM 4.1 Refrigeration System Construction The component parts of the refrigeration system include the following: Compressor, Evaporator, Condenser, Accumulator, Capillary tube The parts above are all connected by copper piping with brazed connections. Evaporator Outlet Pipe Condenser Evaporator Compressor Discharge Pipe Evaporator Inlet Pipe Capillary Tube Condenser Inlet Pipe Condenser Outlet Pipe Connecting Pipe (Evaporator to Compressor) Compressor Suction Pipe Compressor Condenser Accumulator Connecting Pipe (Condenser to Capillary Tube) Flow of Refrigerant Accumulator Capillary Tube Fan Motor Evaporator Compressor ILL

14 14 Operation Section 4.2 Compressor The compressor used for the unit is hermetically sealed. The compressor and the compressor motor are in one casing. (1) Compressor construction The construction of a rotary type compressor is divided into two mechanisms; the drive mechanism (compressor motor), and the compression mechanism (compressor). When the rotor shaft of the motor (drive mechanism) turns, the roller (compression mechanism) rotates to compress the refrigerant. Terminal Stator To Condenser From Evaporator Accumulator Strainer Rotor Cylinder Roller Lubricator Blade Discharge Valve Oil I001675

15 Operation Section 15 (2) Basic compressor operation The roller (compression mechanism) is set Discharge eccentrically with a certain distance given from Hole Spring Discharge the axis of the center of the cylinder. A spring Valve Suction Hole loaded blade is mounted on the cylinder. The Blade roller turns to compress the refrigerant in the space between the cylinder and eccentrically Shaft mounted roller. The blade is in contact with the Roller Cylinder roller by means of spring force. The blade I partitions the space between the suction side and the discharge side to keep compressed refrigerant from returning to the suction side. There is no suction valve. The discharge valve is designed not to open until the pressure of the refrigerant within the cylinder reaches or exceeds discharge side pressure. As a result, the discharge valve prevents the backward flow of refrigerant gas.

16 16 Operation Section (3) Operation Discharge Valve Blade 1) Start of compression 1) The cylinder is filled with low pressure gas. 2) Since pressure in the discharge chamber is higher than in the cylinder, the discharge valve is kept closed. Roller I Discharge Valve Blade 2) Suction and compression 1) The pressure in the cylinder increases gradually. 2) Refrigerant suction begins on the suction side of the cylinder. 3) The discharge valve remains closed. Roller I Discharge Valve Blade 3) Discharge 1) The pressure in the cylinder exceeds that in the discharge chamber, and the discharge valve opens. 2) On the suction side, refrigerant suction continues. Roller I Discharge Valve Roller Blade I ) Completion of compression 1) When compression is completed, all of the refrigerant has been drawn from the suction chamber. 2) Operation then returns to step 1) (Start of compression) and the above process of suction and compression continues repeatedly in succession.

17 Operation Section 17 (4) Compressor lubrication The lubrication system is comprised of a hollow shaft, an oil scraper mounted at the end face, hollow shaft, a shaft journal (shaft bearing), and the lubrication groove for the shaft journal. The lubrication groove is wider than the oil hole. When the shaft turns, oil is scraped upward by the oil scraper along the inside diameter of the hollow shaft. The oil is fed through the oil hole by centrifugal force, then supplied to the lubrication groove for each shaft journal, lubricating the bearing. In this lubrication system, oil enters into each bearing separately and returns to the oil reservoir. This system effectively prevents bearing temperature increases, and offers high reliability. In addition, the specially treated Rotor Hollow Shaft Eccentric Shaft Cylinder Roller Oil Feed Groove Oil Hole Oil Scraper shaft journal keeps the bearing from being damaged during high temperature operation. ILL Condenser The condenser is a heat exchanger with copper tubes that are covered with thin aluminum projections called plate fins. Heat is given off and absorbed by air being pulled across the condenser fins by the centrifugal fan and then expelled through the exhaust air duct. I002351

18 18 Operation Section 4.4 Capillary Tube The capillary tube is a long thin tube that High Temp./High Pressure utilizes line flow resistance as an expansion Liquid Refrigerant valve. The length and the inner diameter of the capillary tube are determined according to the capacity of the refrigeration system, operating conditions, and the amount of refrigerant. The high pressure, high temperature liquid Low Temp./Low Pressure refrigerant sent from the condenser expands Gas and Liquid Mixture I rapidly as the refrigerant is sprayed out through the fixed orifice in the capillary tube. As a result, the temperature and state of the refrigerant becomes low and mist-like, and therefore evaporates easily. 4.5 Evaporator The evaporator is a heat exchanger covered with spine fins. Heat is removed from the air being pulled across the evaporator by the centrifugal fan. The resulting cool air is expelled through the cooling air ducts. I Accumulator The accumulator is mounted on the suction From Evaporator gas piping between the evaporator and the compressor. The accumulator separates the liquid refrigerant from the gas refrigerant, allowing only the gas refrigerant to enter the compressor. In the accumulator, suction gas is led into a cylindrical vessel where the speed of To Compressor the gas is decreased. This process separates the refrigerant contained in the gas by the force I of gravity, causing the refrigerant to accumulate at the bottom of the vessel. As a result, the compressor is protected from possible damage caused by liquid refrigerant intake.

24 24 Operation Section 5.3 Control Specifications (1) Fan control When the FAN button is pressed, the 52ID (fan motor on/off) relay on the relay board turns on, operating the fan. For the 15SF, the 52ID relay turns the auxiliary relay on to operate the fan. Specifications: - 52ID (Fan motor On-Off) relay output: 5 A at AC 250 V (2) Compressor start control When the ON/OFF button is pressed, the 52CM relay on the relay board turns on, operating the compressor. Specifications: - 52CM (Compressor On-Off) relay output: 20 A at AC 250 V (3) Anti-freeze control Anti-freeze controls turns the compressor on and off by turning the 52CM relay on in accordance with the freeze protection thermistor (CTS) temperature. As a result, decreases in cooling performance due to frost buildup on the evaporator are prevented. Compressor off conditions: Freeze protection thermistor (CTS) temperature -1.1 C Compressor on (recovery) conditions: CTS temperature 15.6 C 52CM ON OFF -1.1 C 15.6 C CTS temperature (Freeze protection thermistor temperature) ILL

25 Operation Section 25 (4) Compressor time delay control (compressor protection) Compressor protection consists of a time delay program within the microprocessor. This program prevents a heavy load from being applied to the compressor motor when restarting the unit (cool mode) after a very short period of time. This delay is in effect any time the compressor is turned on by either the COOL ON/OFF button, or power interruption restart (automatic recovery.) Specifications: - Time Delay: 120 seconds [Example] Controller Status Compressor Status (52CM) ON OFF ON OFF 1st Time (After initial set up, reset circuit breaker, etc.) Delay Time (120 sec.) Compressor turns off and on immediately (within 120 sec.) Turn ON Compressor turns off and on more than 120 sec. later No Delay Time (Less than 5 sec.) Delay Time (120 sec. after last turn off) Stop (for Extended Period) No Delay Time (less than 5 sec.) Reference: Initial turn on Within: 120 sec. after (the power cord is connected to) the power supply, the compressor will start with delay timer. After: 120 sec. since (the power cord was connected to) the power supply, the compressor will start without delay timer. I (5) Automatic restart and recovery function The microprocessor contains a feature that automatically restart the unit after power is lost and regained, and also has memory to store and recover operation status in the event of a power loss. Status of memory during power interruption When the input power is off, the status items below are saved in the memory. - Running status (on or off) - Operating mode: Cool mode or fan only mode - Set temperature - Temperature mode ( F or C) - Fan mode: Fan operation mode (fan on) or fan stop mode (fan auto)

CAUTION Secure the wires using clamps to prevent contact with the edges of the structure, etc. Secure the wires in the same position as prior to removal Inspection of Refrigeration System In most cases, the probable cause for insufficient cooling is a clog in the system, a leakage, or an incorrect amount of refrigerant. In such cases, inspect the system according to the following procedure. (1) Clogged refrigeration system Check the component parts of the refrigeration system, including piping, that could be clogged with refrigerant. If clogged with refrigerant, only the clogged part is partially frosted. If this occurs, change the part in question. (2) Refrigerant leak Carefully check all connections, and each component for leaks whenever the refrigeration system is installed or repaired. Use an electronic gas leak tester to inspect the system. (3) Insufficient refrigerant When the unit is not producing sufficient cooling, follow the troubleshooting chart on page 34 and 35 to confirm the cause of the problem. If insufficient refrigerant is suspected, refer to Section 9 (Refrigeration System Repair) on page 55.

55 Repair Section REFRIGERATION SYSTEM REPAIR WARNING This air conditioner uses R-410A refrigerant under high pressure. It is both dangerous and illegal to tamper with the sealed refrigerant system without appropriate licensing and training. Deliberate release of refrigerant is illegal in Australia, New Zealand and other regions. Fully recover all refrigerant before attempting to remove or repair any refrigeration system components. Ensure that the system is free of leaks before charging with refrigerant. Observe Refrigerant Handling Code of Practice and all other applicable regulatory requirements. 9.1 Repair of Refrigeration System When there is a leak, obstruction, or problem in the refrigeration system of this unit, replace or repair the part in question. After replacing any component, all connections must be brazed. (1) Proper brazing techniques It is desirable to use a slightly reduced flame. Oxyacetylene is commonly used since it is easy to judge and adjust the condition of the flame. Unlike gas welding, a secondary flame is used for brazing. It is necessary to preheat the base metal properly depending on the shape, size, or thermal conductivity of the brazed fitting. The most important point in flame brazing is to bring the whole brazed fitting to a proper brazing temperature. Care should be taken to not cause overflow of the brazing filler metal, oxidation of the brazing filler metal, or deterioration due to overheating of flux. (2) Brazed fittings and fitting clearance In general, the strength of the brazing filler metal is lower than the base metal. Therefore the shape and clearance of brazed fittings are quite important. As for the shape of brazed fitting, it is necessary to maximize its adhesive area. The clearance of the brazed fitting must be minimized to facilitate brazing filler metal to flow into it by capillary action. a Clearance a 0.025~0.075 mm Clearance From The Pipe Fitting and Tubing. ILL

56 56 Repair Section (3) Cleaning brazing filler metal and piping When the refrigeration system has been opened up, exposure to the heat may have caused brazing filler metal to stick to the inside and outside of the pipe. Brazing filler metal may also be compounded with oxygen in the air to form the oxide film. Fat and oils may stick to the pipe from handling. All these factors can reduce the effectiveness of brazing. It is necessary to eliminate excess brazing filler metal using sand paper and by cleaning thoroughly with a solvent such as trichlene. CAUTION Do not use chlorine cleaner. (4) Use of dry nitrogen gas During brazing, the inside of the pipe undergoes an oxidative reaction due to the brazing flame. Introduce dry nitrogen gas 1 L/min; adjust with the flow regulator) through the pinch-off tube of the refrigerant. < NOTE > Take care not to allow dirt, water, oil, etc. to enter into the pipe. (5) Vertical joint Heat the whole brazed fitting to a proper brazing temperature. Bring the brazing filler metal into contact with the fitting so that the brazing filler metal starts flowing by itself. Stop heating the fitting as soon as the brazing filler metal has flown into the clearance. Since the brazing filler metal flows easily into the portion heated to a proper temperature, it is essential to keep the whole fitting at a proper brazing temperature.
