Check of Density Limit The room in which the air conditioner is to be installed requires a design that in the event of refrig- erant gas leaking out, its density will not exceed a set limit. The refrigerant (R410A), which is used in the aircondition- er, is safe, without the toxicity or combustibility of ammonia, and is not restricted by laws imposed to protect the ozone layer. However, since it contains more than air, it poses the risk of suffocation if its density should rise excessively. Suf-

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 1. Introduction The W-2WAY ECO-i is a system that allows multiple outdoor units to be connected. The outdoor units all contain inverter compressors, and the system does not utilize the sub units that were used in earlier systems. The outdoor unit where the unit No. is set to “1” includes the CCU (command controller unit) functions that are used to control the entire system. As a result, the system will not operate if no outdoor unit has been set as unit No.

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 2. Selecting an Outdoor Unit for Operation 2-1. Outdoor Unit Operating Rules Because in this system all outdoor units contain an inverter compressor, ordinarily there is no absolute order of priority for compressor operation. Therefore there is no order of priority for the outdoor units. However, it is possible to operate the outdoor units in sequence, beginning with unit No. 1, by using the outdoor unit maintenance remote controller to change the outdoor

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 3. Compressor Control 3-3. Compressor Capacity Control The compressor operating conditions vary depending on the indoor unit operating conditions and the effects of indoor heat load, outdoor temperature and other factors. Unit No. 1 (CCU) calculates the required capacity accord- ing to these operating conditions, and allocates the capacity requirement among the outdoor units, according to the compressor start/stop rules. Fine adjustments to system capacity

W-2WAY ECO-i SYSTEM Control Functions 6. Operation of Solenoid Valves 6-1. Refrigerant Control Valve [RCV] The main purpose of this valve is to detect the flow of refrigerant (refrigerant volume) on the indoor-unit side when the outdoor unit heat exchanger is functioning as a condenser. When the valve determines that there are signs of a low refrigerant level, refrigerant is supplied from the receiver tank to the system. (1) The OFF conditions take priority over the ON conditions for this valve
