WORKING STANDARDS FOR PREVENTING BREAKAGE OF SEMICONDUCTORS
1. Scope
The standards provide for items to be generally observed in carrying and handling semiconductors in
relative manufactures during maintenance and handling thereof. (They apply the same to handling of
abnormal goods such as rejected goods being returned.)

2. Object parts
(1) Microcomputer

(2) Integrated circuits (I.C.)

(3) Field effective transistor (F.E.T.)

(4) P.C. boards or the like to which the parts mentioned in (1) and (2) of this paragraph are equipped.

3. Items to be observed in handling


(1) Use a conductive container for carrying and storing of parts. (Even rejected goods should be handled in
the same way.)
IC
A conductive polyvinyl bag

IC Conductive sponge
UV
,188
1TH1
IC40
CH I
HITA

Fig. 1 Conductive container


(2) When any part is handled uncovered (in counting, packing and the like), the handling person must
always use himself as a body earth. (Make yourself a body earth by passing one M ohm earth
resistance through a ring or bracelet.)

(3) Be careful not to touch the parts with your clothing when you hold a part even if a body earth is
being taken.

(4) Be sure to place a part on a metal plate with grounding.

(5) Be careful not to fail to turn off power when you repair the printed circuit board. At the same time,
try to repair the printed circuit board on a grounded metal plate.

part using a rag plate

Fig.4 Grounding a solder iron

Use a high insulation mode (100V, 10MΩ or higher) when ordinary iron is to be used.

(7) In checking circuits for maintenance, inspection, or some others, be careful not to have the test probes
of the measuring instrument short circuit a load circuit or the like.

4
! CAUTION

1. In quiet or stop operation, slight flowing noise of refrigerant in the refrigerating cycle is heard occasionally,
but this noise is not abnormal for the operation.

2. When it thunders near by, it is recommend to stop the operation and turn off the circuit breaker for safety.

3. In the event of power failure,the room air conditioner will restare automatically in the previously selected
mode once the power is restored. In the event of power failure during TIMER operation, the room air comditioner
will not start automatically. Re-press ON/OFF button after 3 minutes from when the unit off or power recovery.

4. If the room air conditioner is stopped by adjusting thermostat, or missoperation, and re-start in a moment,
there is occasion that the cooling and heating operation does not start for 3 minutes, it is not abnormal and
this is the result of the operation of IC delay circuit. This IC delay circuit ensures that there is no danger of
blowing fuse or damaging parts even if operation is restarted accidentally.

5. This room air conditioner should not be used at the cooling operation when the outside temperature is
below -10°C (14°F).

6. This room air conditioner (the reverse cycle) should not be used when the outside temperature is below
–15°C (5°F).
If the reverse cycle is used under this condition, the outside heat exchanger is frosted and efficiency falls.

7. When the outside heat exchanger is frosted, the frost is melted by operating the hot gas system, it is not
trouble that at this time fan stops and the vapour may rise from the outside heat exchanger.

If the “ (AUTO SWING) ” button is pressed once,
the horizontal air deflector swings up and down.If the about 10°
button is pressed again, the deflector stops in its current
position. Several seconde (about 6 seconds) may be
about 40°
required before the deflector starts to move.
The adjusting range of the horizontal air deflector is shown
on the right.
When the operation is stopped, the horizontal air deflector
moves and stops at the position where the air outlet
closes. When heating

Horizontal
Vertical

CAUTION about 10°

In “Cooling” operation, do not keep the horizontal air


about 45°
deflector swinging for a long time. Some dew may form
on the horizontal air deflector and some dew may drop
from it.

2 Adjust the airflow to left and right.


Hold the vertical air deflector as shown on the right and
adjust the airflow to left and right.

DESCRIPTION OF MAIN CIRCUIT OPERATION
MODEL RAK-18/25/35/50PED
RAK-25/35/50PEDC

1. Control power circuit

Switching power circuit

Fig. 1-1

・An AC power supply from outdoor unit passes through the 3.15 A fuse, varistor (VA001), and noise filter circuit and rectified
and smoothed by DB1 and C003 to become a DC current 325 V. It is then supplied to indoor fan motor drive circuit,and
switching power circuit.
・The switching power circuit, as controlled by IC001, drives the primary winding of the transformer (T001) to produce a
specified voltage at the output winding. [The output terminal (pin ⑦⑧) of IC001 has a switching voltage. But it changes in
voltage peak and oscillation period depending on the power load. usually,the oscillation frequency when the air condition
operation is about 67 kHz. In the standby state, the oscillation frequency is lowered to a level as low as 20 kHz or so to
reduce the standby power.]
・The outputs of the output windings of the transformer is rectified and smoothed to become DC voltages at primary 18.5 V,
and 12 V respectively. The primary 18.5 V is supplied to the drive circuit of the indoor fan motor, the 12 V is supplied
to each vane motor and to the drive circuits of the cleaning unit driving motor and other equipment, the 12 V is adjusted
to a stable 5 V by the 3-terminal regulator IC (IC101) and supplied to the microcomputer peripheral circuit.

Check
If a failure in a part or circuit has produced an abnormal current in the power supply, the 3.15 A fuse will melt down to
prevent further damage. If the 3.15 A fuse melts down, check the indoor fan motor, switching electrical circuit, and other
components and replace any defective part.

Check
If an abnormally high voltage is applied to the power supply, the 3.15 A fuse and varistor (VA001) will prevent further
damage. If a high voltage results in the 3.15 A fuse melted down, the varistor (VA001) should have deteriorated and
destroyed. Therefore replace it at the same time.

Caution
The primary circuit of the transformer (T001) has a voltage to ground. Guard against electric shocks.

Reset circuit is to initialize the indoor unit microcomputer when switching ON the power or after recovering from power
failure.
Microcomputer operates when 㽼 pin of the indoor unit microcomputer (reset input) is "Lo" for resetting and "Hi" for heating.
Waveform of each part when switching ON the power and when shutting down is shown in the Fig. 2-2.
After switching ON the power, 㽲 pin of IC501 supply voltage and 㽼 pin of microcomputer becomes Hi when DC5V line
rises and reaches approximately 4.4V or higher.
Then, resetting will be cancelled and microcomputer starts operating.
After shutting down the power, 㽲 pin of IC501 supply voltage and 㽼 pin of microcomputer becomes Lo when DC5V line
falls and reaches approximately 4.2V or lower.
Then, the microcomputer will be in reset condition.

䊶 The indoor fan motor receives VDC (motor drive power supply), VCC (power supply for the control circuit inside the motor),
and VS (speed command voltage) from CN2. The indoor fan motor returns an FG signal of a frequency that matches the
rotation speed.
䊶 VCC stabilizes the primary 18.5 V power supply into 15 V by using Q201 and supplies it.
䊶 While on standby for a remote control signal, the Q201 shuts down the VCC and reduces the standby power.
䊶 The VS receives a command voltage from the microcomputer (IC601). The VS terminal undergoes an analog voltage that
matches the Lo level time ratio of the pulse signal from pin $5 of the microcomputer. (See Fig. 3-2.)
䊶 The FG terminal undergoes a signal of 12 pulses per revolution of the motor shaft. By counting the pulse rate, the
microcomputer (IC601) recognizes the motor speed, thereby performing feedback control.

・Indoor and outdoor communications are conducted by using lines 2 and 3 of F cable. Line 2 of F cable is shared with a
transmission channel that powers the outdoor unit.
・Data communicated between the indoor and outdoor units are outputted from the microcomputer as serial signals and are
transmitted as demodulated by a 30 kHz carrier wave. (Both the indoor and outdoor microcomputers directly output a signal
demodulated at 30 kHz.)

Check

If a cable poorly inserted in the indoor terminal board or some other failure overheats the terminal board and the
temperature fuse of the terminal board blows out, the power to the indoor communication circuit will be shut down to stop
the communications function. (In that case, the failure will be displayed by the timer lamp blinking 3 times.)

Check

ǂand keep blinking the LD301 until it is restarted.
ǂ(The communication error will persist until the communication is
ǂreestablished.)

 Self-diagnosis memory ・The failure modes detected on the indoor and outdoor unit sides
are stored in the nonvolatile memory of the indoor unit and can be
read later on.
ǂ(The memory will remain even after power-off.)
・The failure modes detected on the outdoor unit side are written in
memory every time any such mode occurs. The failure mode can
therefore be detected on the indoor unit side without waiting for
the retry frequency to reach the display of the indoor unit lamp.
Moreover, the normal self-diagnosis display function which rarely
occurs will store and display failure modes that do not end up
displaying the indoor unit lamp.
ǂ(Any such mode may be unable to be stored if indoor or outdoor
communications is in a failure.)
・The product stores 5 last-stored failure modes.
・There is a function for deleting memory. Once you clear the
memory and run the product for several days, you can read the
failure modes and check them, thereby detecting the less
frequent failure phenomena.
・Failure modes can be checked by both the blinking of the lamp of
the indoor unit and the display of the remote control liquid crystal
display.

ĆThe "self-diagnosis function of the communication circuit" available in our conventional models is now incorporated
as part of the normal self-diagnosis function. In the case of a failure in the communication circuit, you do not have
to conduct a special operation and the operations can be automatically divided into 3 blinking operations and 12
blinking operations of the timer lamp. However, a strong external noise may have resulted in 12 times of blinking.

 Steps 1. Clear the troubleshooting data.
2. Run the product for several minutes under the conditions where the compressor runs.
3. Redisplay and check the data written in the self-diagnosis memory.

・The self-diagnosis memory function can also be used to catch sporadic failure phenomena.
Steps 1. Clear the troubleshooting data.
2. Have the user use the product as usual until a failure phenomenon occurs.
ǂ(The period depends on the incidence of the phenomenon.)
3. At a later date, redisplay and check the data written in the self-diagnosis memory.

・ For the outdoor self-diagnosis display (OH thermistor heat-up, overload lower limit cut) stemming from the freezing cycle
ǂor operating condition, the time lag is long from operation startup to the emergence of the phenomenon.
ǂMoreover, it is affected by the temperature, sunshine, operating hours, and other factors of the day, so that the

memory function (Ć2).
・ The outdoor self-diagnosis display "overload lower limit cut" and "OH thermistor heat-up" can be identified only when you
are using the self-diagnosis lamp of the outdoor unit and the self-diagnosis memory function of the indoor unit.

Neither initialization, remote control, nor any other step works on the vane position at power-on.
[ Estimated failure ・ 3.15 A fuse blown out Estimated cause of fuse blowout ・ Abnormally high voltage applied to the power supply
locations ] ・ Indoor fan motor out of order
・ Control power circuit ・ Power circuit out of order
・ Connector loose, wire break

>Cautions@ ・ Before work, check the power supply voltage. An abnormal voltage may be being supplied in
some rare occasions due to a defect in the indoor wiring (a wire break in the neutral wire of the
single-phase 3-wire power supply).
・ If the 3.15 A fuse has blown out, eliminate the cause of the fuse blowout. Otherwise, there will occur
another fuse blowout.
・ If the 3.15 A fuse has blown out due to an abnormally high voltage to the power supply, the varistor
(VA001) will deteriorate and become destroyed as well.
・ On a repair service visit due to the failure phenomenon of "The power will not become turned on",
take a "3.15 A fuse" and a "varistor" with you.

2.Failure phenomenon: The product will not receive a remote control signal.
Situation The product does not receive a remote control signal. It is not very responsive.
(The product does run normally in response to the emergency operation switch.)
Estimated failure ・ Remote control failure, remote control low battery level, remote control poorly set
locations ・ Remote control light-receiving unit
・ Connector loose, wire break
・ Normal product (external factors: the remote control units for lighting equipment and other
equipment, electrical noise, etc.)
Cautions ・ Even if the product is trouble-free, a factor coming from outside the product may hamper the
reception of signals from the remote control unit.
・ Batteries may decline in capacity at low temperatures. Old batteries decline particularly much in
voltage in the morning and evening of winter, resulting in the poor arrival of remote control signals.

[ Estimating sources of jamming ] Identify the installation status of the air-conditioner and the indoor and outdoor
environments to identify possible causes of the jamming.
・Indoor lighting equipment (quantity, type, location)
・Remote control units of other electrical products and equipment
・Is the grounding for the air-conditioner shared with other equipment?
・Are the surroundings of the air-conditioner clear of wireless antenna?
・Is the remote control light-receiving unit protected from direct sunlight?

[ Checking and actions ]


Effects of lighting Checking points
equipment ・Turn on and off the lighting equipment and check for its effects on the reception of remote control
(fluorescent lamps) ǂsignals.
・When cold, the fluorescent lamp tends to emit infrared rays with wavelengths close to those used in
ǂremote control.
ǂIf you cannot detect the phenomenon about which your user is complaining at the time of your visit,
ǂsuch as "the product sometimes fails to receive remote control signals" and "the product fails to ǂ
ǂreceive remote control signals in the morning alone", then turn off the lighting for about 20-30 minutes
ǂand wait for the fluorescent lamps to cool down before conducting another check.
ǂThere are even cases where the product fails to receive remote control signals for 1 to 2 minutes only
ǂafter the lighting equipment is turned on.

Actions proposed
1. Make it hard for light of the lighting equipment to enter the
ǂremote control light-receiving unit.

This will also affect the reception of remote control signals. farther equipment
Therefore, set the range to be covered with tape to a range
that is problem-free in practice, while checking the reception status.

2. Add an interference filter to the front panel of the remote control light-receiving unit.
ǂĆ Lighting equipment that produces strong jamming exists although rarely.
ǂǂSome problems may therefore be unsolvable by managing the air-conditioner side alone.

Actions proposed
If there is any such possibility, give explanations to your users to that effect and
instruct them to exercise caution.

Effects of other Checking points
electrical products ・Check the effects of light and power noises coming from other electrical products.
・Turn on and off the electrical products, turn off the power and turn on the power, and check their effects
on the reception of remote control signals.
・For products whose operating states change, check the effects of each state.

Actions proposed
・Change the location relationship between the air-conditioner and the target products.
・Use a different wall outlet for the target products.

How to run the product with the outdoor unit test switch

If the indoor electrical parts is out of order and if you wish to run the outdoor unit

1. Turn on the outdoor terminal boards L and N (220-230 V AC).


2. Confirm that the "LD301" blinks once from the terminal side of the outdoor unit. Afterwards (when about 30 sec elapses
after the power turns on), confirm that the "LD301" changes to blinking 9 times (communication error).
3. When the "LD301" is blinks 9 times, if you press the test switch, the "LD301" lights up.
If you release your finger from the test switch within 1 sec to 5 sec after pressing the switch, the forced cooling operation starts.
※(If you press the test switch for 5 sec or longer, the self-check diagnosis starts. In this case, turn the power off and start the procedure from 1 again.)

※(For the initialization of the expansion valve, it may take 1 min until the operation starts.)
4. When you press the test switch again for 1 sec or longer, the unit stops the operation.

Cautions
1. Applying power directly to the outdoor unit will cause a rush current to stress the outdoor unit.
Therefore, if the indoor unit is not out of order, do not use the method descried in 2).
2. Before making the connections, be sure to turn off the breaker.
3. Do not under any circumstances run the product for more than 5 minutes.
4. Doing work with the compressor connector removed will cause the LD301 to blink 4 times.
It will not start.
5. For another test run, turn off the breaker and turn it back on. (The test switch is accepted only
once after power-on. After operation by remote control, it is not accepted.)
6. When the operation with the test switch is over, turn off the breaker and set the connectors back.
