the unit- under the evaporator (2pcs.)- Siphon Underpressure and under the condenser (1pcs.)- Siphon
Overpressure. See the scheme below!

1. Installing/Mounting of the drainage system

!Caution!

Both siphons- Under pressure and Overpressure must be connected to the central sewage system always
separately

- Both siphons- Under pressure and Overpressure are part of the standard accessories of the unit, delivered
with. They are made of PVC material. The siphons are preassembled in factory conditions and the
Customer must assemble(due to gluing) and install siphon Under pressure with the delivered parts, by
using the mounting scheme below

13
14
!Caution!
Do not connect the Siphons directly to the sewage pipes that smell of Ammonia. The ammonia in the sewage
might enter the unit through the siphons and corrode the heat exchanger and/or be transferred in the supply air
to the room.

!Caution!
Water accumulating in the Siphons and drain piping can cause the drain to clog and condense water leakage
outside the drain pans

- When piping passes indoors, always insulate it all the way to the base of the drain socket
- In areas where freezing may occur, always take steps to prevent the pipes from freezing
- Make sure water doesn`t leak from the drain pipes
- Avoid bends and curves in the pipes to prevent them getting clogged

2. After piping/installation work is finished check drainage flows smoothly

- Test the drainage and siphons by pouring around 1000cc of water directly into the siphon Under
pressure, following the below scheme

!Caution!
Always do the above shown operation in the following cases:
- Before start-up of the unit in “Cooling Mode” (Manual or Automatic)
- In “Cooling Mode” when switching off the unit (for whatever reason) for more than 72h and its
secondary start up

3. Make sure that heat insulation work is executed on the following 2 spots to prevent any possibility for
water leakage due to dew condensation
15
 - Siphon Underpressure and Overpressure
- The connection of both siphons to the sewage system

Electrical connection

The unit is fully wired in factory conditions and for use electrical power as per the indications on the unit's
rating plate is required, with online protective cutouts. The cable cross sections and the scaling
of the line switch are purely indicative. The installation engineer will be responsible for properly scaling the
power line with regards to the length and type of cable, the power input of the unit and the
physical positioning. All the electrical connections must comply with the regulations in force at the
time of the installation. The diagrams and schematics in this documentation must only be used as an aid for
the setting up of the electrical lines.

NOTE:
Check that all power cables are correctly secured to the terminals when switched on for the first time and after
30 days of use. Afterwards, check the connection of the power cables every six months. Slack
terminals could cause the cables and components to overheat.

START-UP
PRELIMINARY OPERATIONS
WARNING
Before carrying out the controls indicated below, ensure that the unit is disconnected from the mains supply.
Ensure that the main switch is turned to OFF and locked in position, and attach a warning sign to the switch.
Before beginning the operations, check the absence of voltage by means of a voltmeter or a phase detector.

Electrical checks

- Check the general power supply cables are of a suitable section, able to withstand the overall absorption of
the unit (see electrical data), and that the unit has been duly earthed.
- Check all the electrical connections are correctly fixed and all the terminals adequately closed.
The following operations must be carried out when the unit is powered up.
- Power up the unit by turning the main switch to the ON position. The display will light up a few seconds
after this. Check that the working status is positioned on OFF
- Use a tester to check that the value of the supply voltage at the RST phases is equal to 400V ±10%, and also
check that the imbalance between the phases is not greater than 3%.
- Check that the connections made by the installer comply with the data given here.
- Check the heater(s) of the compressor carter are working by measuring the increase in temperature of the oil
bowl. The heater(s) must work for at least 24 hours before the compressor start-up,
and in any case the temperature of the oil bowl must be 10-15°C higher than the room temperature.

WARNING:
At least 24 hours before starting up the unit (or at the end of each period of prolonged inactivity) the unit must
be powered up, to allow the heaters of the compressor carter to evaporate any refrigerant that may be present
in the oil. If this precaution is not performed the compressor could be seriously damaged and the guarantee
would no longer be valid.

Start-up

16
After carefully carrying out all the checks detailed above, it is possible to start up the unit by pressing the
MODE button. Check the set working parameters (setpoint)
and rearm any alarms that may be present. After a few minutes, the unit will start up.
- Check the rotation direction of the fans.
- Check the input current of the fans and the compressor, and compare it with the technical data in the
technical documentation.
NOTE:
For the setting of all functional parameters and for detailed information regarding machine functioning, refer
to the user's manual.

Refrigerating circuit checks

- Check for any refrigerating gas leaks, especially near the pressure transducers and pressure switches
(vibration during transport may have loosened the connectors).
- After a brief working period, check the level of oil in the compressor and the absence of bubbles in the liquid
indicator glass. The continuous passage of vapour bubbles may indicate an insufficient refrigerant charge or
that the thermostatic valve is incorrectly set. The presence of vapour for brief periods is, however, possible.

Main steps:
1. Insert the connecting cable firmly into the terminal block. Incorrect insert could cause a short circuit
or fire
2. Ensure that the earth wire is connected
3. Carry out the wiring in conformity with regulations to ensure correct unit operation
4. Make sure that the mains are compatible with characteristics of the unit.
5. Always use an independent line
6. Every electrical element has to be connected to the system earth

8. Inspection, maintenance, cleaning
