6. Electrical work
u
Consult all related regulations and power companies beforehand.
Warning:
Electrical work should be handled by qualified electrical engineers in
accordance with all related regulations and attached instruction manuals.
Special circuits should also be used. If there is a lack of power capacity or
a deficiency in electrical work, it may cause a risk of electric shock or fire.
Connect all wires securely.

7. Setting addresses and operating units
The address switch of each BC controller is set to "000" when shipped from the factory.
•
Set the address switch to 1 + the address of the outdoor unit.
The BC controller address should generally be set to 1 + the address of the outdoor unit. However, if this would result in it having the same address as
u
X
another outdoor unit, set the address between 51 and 100, making sure that it is different from the address of other controllers.
•
Please refer to the outdoor unit installation manual.
When connecting multiple indoor units to one branch port
u
X
•
Indoor units connected to one branch port can only be operated in the same mode.
•
When connecting multiple remote controllers, group setting is required.
8. Checklist after installation
Warning:
After the installation has been completed, check for refrigerant leaks.
-
If the refrigerant leaks, oxygen starvation may result. If the leaked refrigerant comes in contact with a heat source, toxic gas will be generated.
After completion of installation work, check the item shown in the table below. If any abnormality is noticed, identify the problem and correct it. Leaving the problem
unattended may cause mechanical failure or malfunctions and raise safety risks.
No.
Item to be checked
1
Check for refrigerant gas leakage.
9. Test run
Before commencing a test run please check the following:
After installing, piping and wiring the indoor units and BC controllers, check to see again that there is no refrigerant leakage and no slack on power and
u
X
control cables.
Use a 500 V megger to check that there is an insulation resistance of more than 1.0 MΩ between the power terminal block and the ground. If it is less than
u
X
1.0 MΩ, do not operate the unit.
Caution:
Never measure the insulation resistance of the terminal block for any control cables.
10. Important information to be passed on to the end users
•
Provide correct usage instructions to the end user. If the user is not present, provide them to the building owner, general constructor, or building manager.
•
Important notes about safety is explained in section "Safety precautions" in this manual. Advise the user to follow them.
•
Pass this Installation Manual to the user after completion of installation.
•
Make sure that the manual is passed on to any future users.
•
Perform a test run when the user is present.

unit, outdoor unit and BC controller.
Use non-polarized 2-wire as transmission cables.
Use 2-core shielding cables (CVVS, CPEVS) of more than 1.25 mm
diameter as transmission cables.
The switch capacity of the main power to BC controllers and the wire size are as
follows:

For other detailed information, refer to the outdoor unit installation manual.
•
Power supply cords of appliances shall not be lighter than design 245 IEC 53
or 227 IEC 53.
•
A switch with at least 3 mm [1/8 in] contact separation in each pole shall be
provided by the Air conditioner installation.
Caution:
Do not use anything other than the correct capacity fuse and breaker.
Using fuse, conductor or copper wire with too large capacity may cause a
risk of malfunction or fire.
Ensure that the outdoor units are put to the ground. Do not connect the
earth cable to any gas pipe, water pipe, lightening rod or telephone earth
cable. Incomplete grounding may cause a risk of electric shock.
