SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before starting any installation, service or maintenance operation, turn off the main power switch in
order to avoid electrical shock that may cause personal damages.
In case of folding electrical panels, before folding them up in order to access to the interior of the
machine, it is MANDATORY to disconnect the power supply hose from the electrical voltage, IT
MUST ALWAYS BE FREE OF VOLTAGE for this operation
DANGER
 Do not touch or adjust the safety elements inside of any unit of the system. In repairs use only original
spare parts and install them properly in the same position where old parts were placed.
 The installation and maintenance of air conditioning equipment could be dangerous because the
system is under pressure, some of its elements have high temperatures and include electrical
components.
 Do not install the unit into an explosive atmosphere.
 If it was necessary to open the electrical panel and access the inside of the machine it is MANDATORY
to disconnect the power supply hose from the machine. It MUST BE FREE OF VOLTAGE for this
operation.
 It is generally forbidden to carry out work on electrical live parts. Protection class of the device when
it is complete opened is IP00! Be careful, do not touch hazardous voltages directly.
 Check the safe isolation from the supply using a two-pole voltage detector.
 Even after disconnecting the main voltage, life-threatening charges can appear between the protective
ground “PE” and the main connection.
 Units with water-air, water-water or refrigerant-water heat exchangers must be conveniently protected
from breaks by freezing when the room temperature can reach values lower than 5 ºC.
In this case, it is mandatory heat, remove completely the water or add antifreeze to ensure that the
freezing point is always lower than the room temperature.
WARNING!
The warranty of the unit will not respond to the damages caused by frozen water.
 When the motor runs independently due to air flowing through or if it continues to run down after
being turned off, dangerous voltages of over 50 V can arise on the internal connections of the motor
through operation of the generator.
 When there are EC motors or motors with variable speed control, the protective earth is conducting
high discharge currents (depending on the switching frequency, current source voltage and motor
capacity). Earthing in compliance with EN specifications shall therefore be observe even for testing
and trial conditions (EN 50 178, Art. 5.2.11). Without earthing, dangerous voltages can be present on
the motor housing.
 Through use of capacitors, danger of death exists even after switching off the device in case of direct
contact with conductive parts or with parts that carry voltage due to fault condition. It is only allowed
remove or open the housing of the controller when the power supply cable is disconnected and after
a waiting time of 3 minutes.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
ATTENTION!
 Only qualified and trained service staff (technical service) must make the installation, commissioning and carry
out maintenance works. Unqualified personnel can only make basic tasks such as cleaning and replacement
of filters, etc.
 Prevent access to children so they cannot play with the appliances.
 In every visit, all precautions must be taken into account: those recommended in the installation, operation
and maintenance instructions, as well as the ones indicated in labels of the unit. Do not forget to strictly follow
any other safety precautions.
 DO NOT introduce objects into the air inlets or outlets that can be drawn into the fan, people, etc.
 Use safety glasses, work gloves and any other safety accessory necessary.
 The fan / motor may switch on and off automatically for functional reasons.
 After power failure or main disconnection an automatic restart of the fan takes place after voltage return!
 Wait for the fan to come to a complete standstill before approaching it!
 In the AC external rotor motor the external rotor turns during operation!
 For brazing operations use a quenching cloth and take precautions to have at close distance a fire
extinguisher.
 This product contains fluorinated greenhouse gases, its leakage can cause displacement of air and cause
insufficient oxygen to breath.
The decomposition of fluorinated gases when being burned due to e.g. brazing operations, may cause the
existence of highly toxic and corrosive gases.
 Must follow all safety recommendations.
WARNING!
The responsibility of all personal and material damages caused by an unplanned or inappropriate use
will be on the person or operating company of the unit, and will not be on its manufacturer.

WATER DRAIN
 The indoor drain unit (of condensate water) has a 3/4” gas (ISO 228-1, BSPP) male connection.
 Condensate drain pipe diameter should be equal or larger than the unit
connection depending on the line length and general building
configuration.
 The drainage line should be inclined a minimum 2% for proper water
evacuation.
 When drain line is exposed to air temperatures below 0 degrees, it is
necessary to cover with thermal insulation or electrical heating wire to
Recommended drain trap
avoid water freezing and tube damage. measures
 It is convenient to install the drain trap with proper dimensions (see diagram).
INSTALLATION OF WATER PIPES

Preliminary information
The selection and installation of the components of the installation have to be done by a qualified installer, respecting
the current legislation of the place of the work and standards of good practise.
The design and calculations of the pipes will be made in a way that the pressure drop of the installation never surpass
the one that could beat the incorporated pump of the unit. Moreover, a bad design of the pressure drops of the pipes
that connect with the indoor units may cause the wrong operation of some of them
Components
- Shut-off valves: Installed at the entry and exit of every component, they allow to do the maintenance operations
without emptying the installation.
- Thermometers and manometers: Installed at the entrance and the exit of the principal elements. Ease the
maintenance and control operations.
- Steam traps: Installed at the highest points of the installation. Allow the air purge of the circuit.
- Drain keys: Install them in all low points of the circuit to allow their emptying.
- Supports: The weight of the pipes must not be supported by the connections of the unit. Therefore, flexible
elements will be installed to prevent it.
- Expansion tank: Keeps the correct pressure of the installation. It is recommended to fill it at 2.15 bars, when the
water temperature changes from cold to pump and vice-versa. The expansion tank has to be sized depending on
the content of water of the installation.
In special circumstances may be necessary to install one or more additional tanks even when the unit has already
one.
Hydraulic joints
The units are supplied with Victaulic grooved pipe connections, remove the connecting
fitting provided by acting on the connection joint.
Weld the fitting in the installation pipe.

Make the connection between the installation pipe and the evaporator through the joint.
Do not weld the installation pipe with the connecting joint connected, the rubber seals could
suffer irreparable damage.

Safety elements
The installation of the following safety elements is MANDATORY when they ARE NOT incorporated as standard at the
unit. Its unfulfillment will cause the LOSS OF WARRANTY.
Water filter
 At the water inlet of the unit, to protect the heat exchanger or other critical components from obstructions
and/or cloggings.
Flow switch or differential pressure switch
 Water heat exchanger protection from breaks due to an insufficient water flow and can cause the total
disqualification of the unit.
 It is mandatory to install the flow switch at the water outlet of the unit, with a horizontal stretch of 6Ø inlet and
5Ø posterior of horizontal length, without section changes at the stretch to ensure the laminar regime of the
water/fluid flow. In case of placing flow switches that are not supplied by HITECSA, follow the manufacturer
instructions, provided that the aforementioned lengths do not decrease.
Anti-icing management
 The anti-icing alarm activates when the temperature of the water (no glycol) is below 5 ºC. The actions that
the control of the machine does are: turn on or keep the water pump working and feed the anti-icing resistance
of the coil. This process works while water temperature is lower than 12 ºC. These operating limits are factory-
changed according to the % of antifreeze.
The chiller has a power supply output to manage the water circulating pump when it is not incorporated in the
unit.
 In the event the installer decides not to manage the pump by means of the control of the unit, you will ensure
that this management is performed properly.
A damaged machine, due to a bad or non-existent management of anti-icing, will not be in warranty.
The commissioning of the unit with ice formed in the coils can produce the immediate break of the coil, even
with an appropriate flow and, therefore, before the action of the protections.
Risk of frost
If the unit or the corresponding hydraulic connection depend on the temperatures close to 4 ºC, take the convenient
measures to prevent the risk of frosts.
For example:
 Mix the installation water with glycol.
 Protect the pipes with warming cables placed below the insulation
Empty the installation checking that:

 There is no closed keys that may retain water even after the emptying.
 There is no low points which water can hold back even after the emptying, make a blowing if necessary.
Glycol additions
Take into account the use of glycol solutions increases the pressure drop. Make sure the type of glycol used is
compatible with the components of the hydraulic circuit (pumps, filter keys, etc.).

MAINTENANCE
CONSERVATION AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Before performing any service or maintenance operation, it is mandatory to turn off the main
power switch of the system to avoid any personal injuries. Locked it so that nobody other than
a qualified technician can switch on electrical power.
It is advisable to schedule maintenance visits every 1.000 operating hours, as well as at the beginning of each cooling
season.
 Coils: At least once a year, clean condenser coils with water and detergent, then dry with air at low pressure. Never
clean with a wire brush, water and/or air at high pressure.
 Drainage system: Verify condition and good operation of the drainage tray and drain trap. It is necessary to clean
the condensates trays after the first day of operation. Then, clean it at least once a year. Take into account the
meteorological conditions, e.g. in places where falling leaves or the flight of seeds can plug the drain trap, it will
also be necessary to clean them at mid and late spring and autumn. The dates are approximate and will depend on
the blooming, falling leaves, seeds, etc. of the plants of the zone or the human activity or any other cause.
 Refrigeration circuit: Check for oil or refrigerant leaks, noises or system’s vibration. Take measurements of
temperatures and pressures of components and record them on the maintenance form.
 Electrical circuit: Make sure that all electrical connections –wires, contactors and terminals- are properly tight.
Record the readings for volts and amperes of each compressor and fan motor. Verify the starting current. Check
the good operation of all relays, pressure switches and phase sequence relay of Scroll compressor.
LUBRICANT
R-410A refrigerant compressors use synthetic polyolester oil. Each compressor manufacturer has a specific oil for your
product.
The compressor or system should not remain open to atmosphere for more than 15 minutes.
Synthetic ester-type lubricants (POE, Polyol Ester) having high solubility with R-410A are used. Since these types of
oils are very hygroscopic, it should be more careful handling them than with conventional ones. Moreover, when these
synthetic oils are mixed with minerals (MO) or alkylbenzenes (AB), they deteriorate causing capillary blockage or failure
in the compressor.
Do not mix under any circumstances.

WARNING!
Never use oxygen to pressurize system or purge lines for leak test. Oxygen reacts violently with
oil, which can cause an explosion resulting in damage, personal injury or death.
 In case it is necessary to add or recover refrigerant, use an electronic scale that is suitably reinforced and
prepared to withstand the handling of the refrigerant bottle.
 The charge must be made in LIQUID condition.
 The inlet of liquid refrigerant R-410A in the empty tubes causes temperatures below 0ºC until the internal
pressure reaches 7 bars.
WARNING!
If it is necessary to make brazing operation, first fill the circuit with dry nitrogen. Burning
refrigerant 410A results in toxic gas emissions.
 Leaks should be repaired immediately.

 Never overcharge the system.
 Never use compressor as vacuum pump.
 If leakage symptoms appear during the operation, it is necessary to leak test.
 To find small leaks, you will need a detector for HCF.
 If gas leak is detected is necessary to remove and recuperate complete refrigerant charge. Pressurize system
with dry nitrogen. If leakage has been not detected break a vacuum, dehydrate and charge with refrigerant.
Do not reintroduce used refrigerant, send it to an authorized recycling location.

APPENDIX: SAFETY DATA R410A

REFRIGERANT DATA SAFETY DATA: R410A
Toxicity Low
R410 A vapours can irritate the skin and eyes. In liquid form, it can freeze skin on contact. If contact with skin occurs,
Contact with Skin flush the exposed area with lukewarm water until all of the chemical is removed. If there is evidence of frostbite,
bathe in lukewarm water.
If contact with eyes occurs, immediately flush with large amounts of lukewarm water for at least 15 minutes, lifting
Contact with Eyes
eyelids occasionally to facilitate irrigation. Seek medical attention as soon as possible.
Very unlikely - should something happen, it will cause frost burns. Do not induce vomiting. Only if the patient is
Ingestion
conscious, wash out mouth with water and give some 250 ml of water to drink. Then, obtain medical attention.
Inhalation of the R410A vapour may cause irritation. Vapour inhalation at high concentrations may result in
asphyxiation or the heart may become sensitized, causing cardiac arrhythmia. When concentration of R410A reach
Inhalation levels which reduce oxygen to 14-16% by displacement, symptoms of asphyxiation will occur. An individual exposed
to high concentrations of R410A must be given medical attention immediately. Adequate ventilation must be
provided at all times.
Semiotics or support therapy is recommended. Cardiac sensitisation has been observed that, in the presence of
Medical Advice circulating catecholamines such as adrenalin, may cause cardiac arrhythmia and accordingly, in case of exposure
to high concentrations, cardiac arrest.
R410A: a study on the effects of exposure to 50,000 ppm during the whole life of rats has identified the development
of benign testicle tumour.
Prolonged Exposure
This situation should therefore be negligible for personnel exposed to concentrations equal to or lower than
professional levels.
Professional Levels R410A: Recommended threshold: 1000 ppm v/v - 8 hours TWA.
Stability R410A: without specifying
Conditions to Avoid Do not use in the presence of high temperatures, flames, burning surfaces and excess humidity.
Contact with certain red-hot metals may result in exothermic or explosive reactions and yield toxic and/or corrosive
Hazardous Reactions decomposition products. Specific materials to avoid include freshly abraded aluminium surfaces and active metals
such as sodium, potassium, calcium, powdered aluminium, magnesium and zinc.
Hazardous
Decomposition R410A: Halogen acids produced by thermal decomposition and hydrolysis.
Products
Do not inhale concentrated vapours. Their concentration in the atmosphere should not exceed the minimum preset
General Precautions values and should be maintained below the professional threshold. Being weightier than the air, the vapour
concentrates on the bottom, in narrow areas. Therefore, the exhaust system must work at low level.
Respiratory System If you are in doubt about the concentration in the atmosphere, it is recommended to wear a respirator approved by
Protection an accident prevention Authority, of the independent or oxygen type.
Cylinders must be stored in a cool, dry and properly ventilated storage area away from heat, flames, corrosive
Storage
chemicals, flumes, explosives and be otherwise protected from damage. Keep a temperature below 50°C.
Protective Clothing Wear overalls, protective gloves and goggles or a mask.
It is important to wear protective clothing and a respirator. Stop the source of the leak, if you can do this without
danger. Negligible leaks can be left evaporating under the sun, providing that the room is well ventilated.
Accidental Release
Considerable leaks: ventilate the room. Reduce the leak with sand, earth or other absorbing substances. Make sure
Measures
that the liquid does is not channelled into gutters, sewers or pits where the vapours are likely to create a stuffy
atmosphere.
The best method is recovery and recycling. If this method is not practicable, dispose according to an approved
Disposal
procedure, which shall ensure the absorption and neutralization of acids and toxic agents.
Fire Fighting
R410A: Not flammable in the atmosphere.
Information
Cylinders The cylinders, if exposed to fire, shall be cooled by water jets; otherwise, if heated, they may explode.
Protective Fire
In case of fire, wear an independent respirator and protective clothing.
