5 EVACUATING

AIR PURGE

Evacuate the air in the connecting pipes and in the indoor unit using vacuum pump.

Do not use the refrigerant in the outdoor unit. For details, see the manual of vacuum pump.

Use a vacuum pump

Be sure to use a vacuum pump with counter-flow prevention function so that inside oil of the pump does not flow backward into pipes of the air conditioner when the pump stops.

1.Connect the charge hose from the manifold valve to the service port of the gas side packed valve.

2.Connect the charge hose to the port of vacuum pump.

3.Open fully the low pressure side handle of the gauge manifold valve.

4.Operate the vacuum pump to start evacuating.

Perform evacuating for about 35 minutes if the piping length is 30 meters total for model SM560 and 50 meters for model SM800

(assuming a pump capacity of 27 liters per minute.) Then confirm that the compound pressure gauge reading is –101 kPa ( –76 cmHg).

5.Close the low pressure side valve handle of gauge manifold.

6.Open fully the valve stem of the packed valves (both sides of Gas and Liquid).

7.Remove the charging hose from the service port.

8.Securely tighten the caps on the packed valves.

REQUIREMENT

For the tools such as charge hose, etc., use those manufactured exclusively for R410A.

REQUIREMENT

•Charging an excessive or too little amount of refrigerant causes a trouble of the compressor. Be sure to charge the refrigerant of specified amount.

•A personnel who charged the refrigerant should write down the pipe length and the added refrigerant amount in the nameplate attached to the service panel of the outdoor unit. It is necessary to troubleshoot the compressor and refrigeration cycle malfunction.

Open the valve fully

Open the valve of the outdoor unit fully. A 4mm- hexagonal wrench is required for opening the valve.

Gas leak check

Check with a leak detector or soap water whether gas leaks or not, from the pipe connecting section or cap of the valve.

REQUIREMENT

Use a leak detector manufactured exclusively for HFC refrigerant (R410A, R134a, etc.).

Thermal insulation process

Apply thermal insulation for the pipes separately at liquid side and gas side.

For the thermal insulation to the pipes at gas side, be sure to use the material with heat-resisting temperature 120°C or higher.

Using the attached thermal insulation material, apply the thermal insulation to the pipe connecting section of the indoor unit securely without gap.

Refrigerant amount to be added

For addition of the refrigerant, add refrigerant “R410A” referring to the attached Installation Manual.

Be sure to use a scale to charge the refrigerant of specified amount.

REQUIREMENT

Apply the thermal insulation to the pipe connecting section of the indoor unit securely up to the root without exposure of the pipe. (The pipe exposed to the outside causes water leak.)

RAV-SM1400UT-E, RAV-SM1100UT-E specifications

Toshiba has consistently been recognized for its commitment to innovation and quality in the HVAC market, and the RAV-SM1100UT-E and RAV-SM1400UT-E models exemplify this dedication. These inverter air conditioners are designed to provide efficient cooling and heating solutions for diverse applications, ensuring comfort in both residential and commercial spaces.

One of the standout features of the RAV-SM1100UT-E and RAV-SM1400UT-E is their advanced inverter technology. This technology allows the units to adjust their cooling and heating capacities based on the real-time conditions, leading to significant energy savings compared to traditional fixed-speed systems. The inverter allows for smooth operation at varying speeds, reducing energy consumption while maintaining a consistent indoor climate.

Both models offer exceptional efficiency ratings. With a high energy efficiency ratio (EER) and seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER), these units are designed to operate sustainably while delivering powerful performance. The RAV-SM1100UT-E offers a cooling capacity of 11 kW, while the RAV-SM1400UT-E boasts a more robust 14 kW, making them suitable for a range of spaces from smaller offices to larger commercial properties.

Another significant characteristic is their quiet operation. Toshiba has engineered these units to minimize noise levels, ensuring a tranquil environment. This is particularly beneficial in settings like hotels, restaurants, and workplaces where noise can be disruptive.

The RAV-SM series is also equipped with intelligent control technology. This feature allows users to manage the system from anywhere using a smartphone app, providing convenience and flexibility. Integration with smart home systems further enhances usability, making it easy to program schedules and adjust settings remotely.

Additionally, both models employ a variety of robust filtration systems, ensuring that the circulated air is clean and healthy. With filters that capture dust, allergens, and other particles, these units contribute to improved indoor air quality.

Durability is another hallmark of Toshiba's design philosophy. These air conditioners are built with high-quality materials, ensuring long-lasting performance and reliability even in demanding environments. The RAV-SM models are also designed to work efficiently in low outdoor temperatures, extending their usefulness throughout the year.

In summary, the Toshiba RAV-SM1100UT-E and RAV-SM1400UT-E air conditioners represent a fusion of innovation, efficiency, and user-centric design. With their advanced inverter technology, energy efficiency, quiet operation, intelligent controls, and durable construction, they stand as ideal solutions for those seeking effective climate management in their spaces.
