The number of connected indoor units is 5 and the maximum number of connected indoor units on the 10HP outdoor
unit is 16, so the number of connected indoor units is within the limitation.
Calculate the corrected capacity of the outdoor unit:
a) The sum of the indoor unit CIs is 314 and the CI of the 10HP outdoor unit (4TVH0096GE000AA) is 280, so the
combination ratio is 314 / 280 = 112%.
b) Using the outdoor unit’s cooling capacity table, interpolate to obtain the capacity (“B”) corrected for outdoor air
temperature, indoor air temperature, and combination ratio. Refer to Tables 1-5.6 and 1-5.7.

Notes:
1. The horizontal axis shows equivalent length of piping between farthest indoor unit and
first outdoor branch joint; the vertical axis shows the largest level difference between
indoor unit and outdoor unit. For level differences, positive values indicate that the
outdoor unit is above the indoor unit, negative values indicate that the outdoor unit is
below the indoor unit.
The corrected capacity 26.66 kW is lower than required total heat load 27.5kW, so selection is not complete. Step 3
should be repeated from the point where the outdoor unit capacity is provisionally selected.
The number of connected indoor units is 5 and the maximum number of connected indoor units on the 12HP outdoor
unit is 20, so the number of connected indoor units is within the limitation.

Calculate the corrected capacity of the outdoor unit:
a) The sum of the indoor unit CIs is 314 and the CI of the 10HP outdoor unit (4TVH0115GE000AA) is 335, so the
combination ratio is 314 / 335 = 94%.
b) Using the outdoor unit’s cooling capacity table, interpolate to obtain the capacity (“B”) corrected for outdoor air
temperature, indoor air temperature, and combination ratio. Refer to Tables 1-5.10 and 1-5.11.

Key components:
1. Oil separator:
Separates oil from gas refrigerant pumped out of the compressor and quickly returns it to the compressor. Separation
efficiency is up to 99%.
2. Accumulator:
Stores liquid refrigerant and oil to protect compressor from liquid hammering.
3. Electronic expansion valve (EXV):
Controls refrigerant flow and reduces refrigerant pressure.
4. Four-way valve:
Controls refrigerant flow direction. Closed in cooling mode and open in heating mode. When closed, the heat
exchanger functions as a condenser; when open, the heat exchanger functions as an evaporator.
5. Solenoid valve SV2:
Protects the compressor. If compressor discharge temperature rises above 98°C, SV2 opens and sprays a small
amount of liquid refrigerant to cool the compressor. SV2 closes again once the discharge temperature has fallen
below 85°C.
6. Solenoid valve SV4:
Returns oil to the compressor. Opens once the compressor has run for 200 seconds and closes 600 seconds later and
then opens for 3 minutes every 20 minutes.
7. Solenoid valve SV7:
Allows refrigerant return to the compressor directly. Opens when indoor air temperature is close to the set
temperature to avoid frequent compressor on/off.

2 Stop Operation
The stop operation occurs for one of the three following reasons:
1. Abnormal shutdown: in order to protect the compressors, if an abnormal state occurs the system makes a 'stop with
thermo off' operation and an error code is displayed on the outdoor unit digital displays.
2. The system stops when the set temperature has been reached.
3 Standby Control
3.1 Crankcase Heater Control
The crankcase heater is used to prevent refrigerant from mixing with compressor oil when the compressor is stopped. The
crankcase heater is controlled according to outdoor ambient temperature and the compressor on/off state. When the
outdoor ambient temperature is above 8°C or the compressor is running, the crankcase heater is off; when the outdoor
ambient temperature is at or below 8°C and either the compressor has been stopped for more than 3 hours or the unit has
just been powered-on (either manually or when the power has returned following a power outage), the crankcase heater
turns on.

4.1 Compressor Startup Delay Control
In initial startup control and in restart control (except in oil return operation and defrosting operation), compressor startup
is delayed such that a minimum of 5 minutes has elapsed since the compressor stopped, in order to prevent frequent
compressor on/off and to equalize the pressure within the refrigerant system.

5.2 Compressor Output Control
The compressor rotation speed is controlled according to the load requirement. Before compressor startup, the outdoor
unit first estimates the indoor unit load requirement according to the nominal capacity of indoor units currently running,
and then correct for ambient temperature. The compressors then start up according to the corrected load requirement.
During operation the compressors are controlled according to the nominal capacity of indoor units currently running and
the indoor unit heat exchanger temperatures.
In cooling mode:
When the outdoor unit is in standby:
EXV is at position 352 (steps).
When the outdoor unit is running:
EXV is controlled according to discharge temperature.

Notes:
1. High pressure sensor connection is port CN12 on the main PCB (labeled 8 in Figure 5-2.1 in Part 5, 2.1 “Ports”).
2. Measure the resistance among the three terminals of the pressure sensor. If the resistance is of the order of mega Ohms or infinite, the pressure sensor
has failed.
3. An insufficiency of refrigerant causes compressor discharge temperature to be higher than normal, discharge and suction pressures to be lower than
normal and compressor current to be lower than normal, and may cause frosting to occur on the suction pipe. These issues disappear once sufficient
refrigerant has been charged into the system. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and 6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of
Refrigerant System”.
4. A low pressure side blockage causes compressor discharge temperature to be higher than normal, suction pressure to be lower than normal and
compressor current to be lower than normal, and may cause frosting to occur on the suction pipe. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and
6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
5. In cooling mode check indoor heat exchangers, fans and air outlets for dirt/blockages. In heating mode check outdoor heat exchangers, fans and air outlets
for dirt/blockages.

2. Measure the resistance among the three terminals of the pressure sensor. If the resistance is of the order of mega Ohms or infinite, the pressure sensor
has failed.
3. Excess refrigerant causes discharge temperature to be lower than normal, discharge pressure to be higher than normal and suction pressure to be higher
