2. Temperature range Standard type Cooling Heating Wet-bulb temperature Dry-bulb temperature Indoor temperature 10~25˚C [50~77˚F] (Note 1) 15~28˚C [59~82˚F] Dry-bulb temperature Wet-bulb temperature Outdoor temperature -5~43˚C [23~109˚F] -20~15.5˚C [-4~60˚F] Note 1. If units are operated for a long time at the dew point temperature of 23˚C [73˚F] or more, condensate may collect and drip from the indoor units.
3. Notes on selecting equipments (1) Notes on using the Fresh Air Intake type units 1Fresh air intake type indoor units supply pretreated outside air into the room. This type of units are not designed to handle internal thermal load. Use other types of air conditioning units (e.g., CITY MULTI system) that are capable of handling internal thermal load in combination with the Fresh Air Intake type units.

4Fan control The unit may be forced to operate in the heating mode to prevent cold draft when the return air temperature (outside air temperature sensor reading) reaches 5˚C[41˚F] or below. At the time of factory shipment, fan setting is made so that the fan will stop during the defrost cycle and when there is a problem with the entire refrigerant systems.

(4) Weather countermeasure In cold and/or snowy areas, sufficient countermeasures to wind and snow damages should be taken for operating unit in normal and good condition in winter time. Surround the units with snow nets or fences to protect them from snow. Even in the other areas, full consideration is required for installation of unit in order to prevent abnormal operations caused by wind or snow.
Page 71
Countermeasure to wind Referring to the figure shown below, take appropriate measures which will suit the actual situation of the place for installation. A unit installed alone is vulnerable to strong winds. Select the installation site carefully to minimize the effect of winds.

Notes on when an optional plenum chamber is installed The unit described in this manual is designed to be used with a duct. When an Optional plenum chamber is used, an adjustment of the pulley is required. • Refer to the manual that came with the plenum chamber for how to install it. Notes on how to remove the top front panel on the unit (P250, P500, P300-F,P600-F models) Before removing the top front panel (panel with a built-in remote controller) to adjust or replace the pulley or belt, or to install optional parts, remote controller cables need to be disconnected.

Important notes on pulleys and pulley belts • Adjusting the variable-width pulley Adjust the PC ø of variable-width pulley according to the procedures described below. 1) Loosen the setscrew holding the fixed and the sliding discs in place. 2) Turn the sliding disc counter-clockwise until no gap is left (0 mm) between the fixed and the sliding discs.
Page 78
• Horizontal pulley alignment and proper belt tension 1) The fan pulley and the motor pulley must be aligned to meet the criteria shown in Figure 1 and Table 1. 2) Set the tension for the V-belt so that the deflection force falls within the range as shown in the table in! !- 3) After the belt has been broken in on the pulley (after 24 to 28 hours of operation), check the belt for looseness and adjust the belt tension as specified in step (2) above as necessary.
