Product Overview & Models
This manual covers Haier Multi-Split Air Conditioner systems, including the following outdoor unit capacity classes:
- 3U55S2PR1FA
- 4U71S2PR1FA
- 4U80S2PR1FA
- 5U100S2PS1FA
- 5U125S2PN1FA
The system uses R32 refrigerant, which is flammable.
Installation Procedures
1. Location Selection
Choose a location that is:
- Structurally sound to support the unit and its vibrations.
- Away from living areas to minimize noise impact.
- Provides adequate space for airflow, installation, and maintenance.
- Free from flammable gas leaks.
- Positioned at least 3048mm from electronic devices like TVs and radios to prevent interference.
- Protected from corrosive elements (e.g., sea breeze).
- Not exposed to direct rain, snow, or strong winds.
- Away from heat sources and open flames.
- Consider snow hoods for outdoor units in snowy climates.
2. Installation Drawings
Detailed diagrams illustrate the correct placement of indoor and outdoor units, piping routes, and wiring connections. Ensure proper clearances are maintained for airflow and service access.
3. Outdoor Unit Installation
Mount the outdoor unit securely on a stable base or bracket. Ensure it is level. Connect piping using specified torque values to prevent leaks. Use appropriate tools for flare nut tightening.
4. Installation Limitations
Adhere to maximum refrigerant piping lengths and height differences between indoor and outdoor units for optimal performance. Shorter piping runs are recommended.
Outdoor Unit Capacity Class | Max. Piping Length per Indoor Unit | Max. Total Piping Length |
---|---|---|
3U55S2PR1FA | 25m | 50m |
4U71S2PR1FA / 4U80S2PR1FA | 25m | 70m |
5U100S2PS1FA | 25m | 80m |
5U125S2PN1FA | 25m | 100m |
Maximum level difference: 15m (outdoor unit higher than indoor), 7.5m (between adjacent indoor units).
5. Refrigerant Piping
Align and tighten flare nuts using specified torque. Apply refrigeration oil to flare surfaces. Purge air from the system using a vacuum pump and check for leaks. Ensure all connections are gas-tight.
6. Pump Down Operation
Perform pump down when relocating or disposing of the unit. This process safely recovers refrigerant by closing valves after a cooling operation.
7. Wiring
All electrical connections must be made by a licensed electrician. Use correct wire types, ensure proper grounding, and connect power and communication lines as per diagrams. The ground wire should be the last to disconnect.
8. DRED Function
If equipped, connect the DRED device output to the outdoor unit's RJ45 connector following specific instructions.
9. Test Running
Verify correct installation by performing a test run. Check piping, wiring, unit compatibility, and refrigerant charge. Ensure all stop valves are open and voltage is correct. The unit may perform an automatic wiring check.
10. Troubleshooting
Consult the troubleshooting table for error codes and LED indicators that help diagnose issues such as communication failures, sensor malfunctions, compressor problems, and refrigerant pressure faults.
Maintenance, Handling & Disposal
Relocation
For relocation, contact your dealer. Follow procedures for system inspection, refrigerant discharge, and recovery.
Maintenance
Maintenance should only be performed by qualified personnel. Ensure proper ventilation and safety measures are in place.
Scrapping & Recovery
Recover refrigerant safely before scrapping. Dispose of the unit and its components responsibly according to environmental regulations.
