REFRIGERANT AND DRAIN PIPE By placing a checkmark in the column, you have agreed
that this is completed to the specification(s).
Description Check
All Y-joints and outdoor unit Tee's were provided by Samsung (Non-Samsung fittings will void warranty)
Indoor refrigerant Y-joints are installed level, within 15° in either direction
Outdoor modules refrigerant Tee's are installed level, not pointing up or down (multi module systems only)
Unused MCU port caps have been tightened to spec and are insulated
All refrigerant pipes are insulated per Samsung recommendations
All Samsung refrigerant fittings are insulated with supplied polystyrene insulation and seams are taped/sealed to prevent condensation
All refrigerant pipe insulation joints are sealed with appropriate adhesives and/or tapes
All condensation drain pipes are installed, insulated, and supported
Refrigerant Y-joints are supported on both sides within 18"
There is a minimum 20" between Y-joint outlet/inlet and elbows
There is a minimum 36" between Y-joints
All isolation valves (when used) are installed in the appropriate direction, insulated, and completely open
(Isolation valves with service ports are recommended. Install so the service port is towards the indoor unit(s) or MCU(s)
Refrigerant pipe system was pressure checked per Samsung recommendation ( 600 PSIG)
Vacuum process was performed on the refrigerant pipe system per Samsung recommendations
(To 500 microns for 60 minutes)
Additional refrigerant was added to the system as calculated by DVM Pro software.
(Length of each diameter of liquid refrigerant pipe must recorded to accurately calculate additional refrigerant )
Condensing unit service valves are open with valve covers reinstalled and tightened

MCU (MODE CHANGE UNIT) and MXD EEV Kits

Description Check
MCU's have been installed level (MCU Drain Pipe is connected and insulated)
MEV EEV kits (single unit) have been installed vertically level and mufflers are installed on inlet side of single unit EEV kits.
All 208/230 VAC supply voltage to the MCU(s) has been connected by a licensed electrician

 ASSISTED START-UP POLICY PRE-CHECK LIST

CONDENSING UNIT
Description Check
You must have in your possession a copy of the “As-Designed” DVM PRO piping tree diagram. BEFORE ANY FIELD
PIPE SIZE OR LENGTH CHANGES ARE MADE, PROPOSED CHANGES MUST BE FORWARDED TO THE DESIGN
ENGINEER SO THAT THEY CAN INPUT THE CHANGES INTO DVM Pro and RE-ISSUE A NEW PIPING TREE DIAGRAM.
Condensing unit is properly installed and meets all guidelines
Correct supply voltage to the condensing unit(s) has been connected.
All COM1 (F1/F2, OF1/OF2) communication wires have been connected (16 AWG X 2 Shielded)
COM1 shielded cable bare wire is grounded at the outdoor unit on a separate terminal than the main service ground connection
All central control communication wires (R1/R2) have been connected R1/R2 terminals in MAIN outdoor unit(s)
(Required for projects where central control options are being installed. 16 AWG X 2 shielded)

INDOOR UNITS
Description Check
1-way and Mini 4-way cassette units are 60" minimum from nearby walls and obstructions on all sides ( 1-way on all sides
excluding return air side of unit) Minimum 10' between installed 4-way and mini 4-way cassettes.
Wall mounted units have sufficient space in front of them to the nearest wall or obstruction
(Wall mounted units are 6' minimum from the ground)
All condensate drain pipes are installed and insulated
All refrigerant pipe insulation is installed, sealed and supported.
All COM1 (F1/F2) and COM2 (F3/F4) wire is 16 AWG X 2, shielded cable and communication wires are connected.
Shield and bare wire in COM1 (F1/F2) wire is not touching indoor unit PCB's or other communication or voltage connections.
Condensate pump overflow relay is connected to break CN83 external contact connection (requires indoor unit option
setting to function) Option 14 - set to 2 (system must be wired and power must be applied) (For Wall Mountunits only)
Ducted indoor unit option setting has been adjust for use of internal Samsung condensate pumps.
Option 8 - set to 1 for pump use, set to 2 for pump use with 3 minute off-delay (system must be wired and power must be
applied) (For ducted units that have optional Samsung Pump field installed)
Ducted unit duct connections are complete and sealed and filters are in place.

CONTROLLERS
Description Check
All COM2 (F3/F4) wire is 16 AWG X 2, shielded cable throughout the building
Central control wires have been run from the MAIN outdoor unit (R1/R2) to the installation location of central controller(s)
For projects with central control options. 16 AWG X 2 shielded cable
Optional remote temp. sensor MRW-TA has been connected to indoor unit(s) indoor unit option setting has been adjusted
for external sensor use. Option 4 - Set to 1 when using MRW-TA sensor (system must be wired and power must be applied)

POWER WIRE & COMMUNICATION CABLES

Description Check
Ground wire was installed and properly terminated at the outdoor unit(s).
Power supplied is clean with voltage fluctuations within specifications. (±10% of nameplate for 208-230V & 460V units)
Power wiring to the outdoor unit(s) was installed per all local electrical code requirements.
Power wiring to each indoor unit was installed per all local electrical code requirements.
Communications cable between the outdoor unit(s) and indoor units was connected in a daisy chain configuration (i.e., single parallel
chain). No “Star” or multiple parallel circuits. No cable splices or wire caps were used to connect communications cables.
