Outdoor units. e.g.Shorten the refrigerant piping as much as possible. Note 1. In principle, MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC requires proper piping design, installation and air-tight testing after installation to avoid leakage happening. In the area should earthquake happen, anti-vibration measures should be fully considered. -

2. Installation restrictions SAFETY HANDLING FOR R32 2. Installation restrictions Observe the following restrictions that apply to the installation of units. 2-1. Installing the outdoor unit or the Hydro unit outdoor Do not install the unit where combustible gas may leak. - If combustible gas accumulates around the unit, fire or explosion may result. - Page 4 2. Installation restrictions SAFETY HANDLING FOR R32 If the unit needs to be installed in a space where all four sides are blocked, confirm that one of these situations (A, B, or C) is satisfied. Secure sufficient installation space (minimum installation area: Amin). Install the unit in a space with an installation area of Amin or more, corresponding to the refrigerant amount (M).
