-8- Refrigerant Recovery Control
Recovery of refrigerant is performed during heating operation to prevent the refrigerant from accumulating inside the unit while
it is stopped (unit in fan mode), or inside the indoor unit that is in cooling mode or in heating mode with thermo off. It is also
performed during cooling operation to prevent an excessive amount of refrigerant from accumulating in the outdoor heat ex-
changer.
It is also performed during cooling operation to prevent an excessive amount of refrigerant from accumulating in the outdoor
heat exchanger.
(1) During heating operation
Starting refrigerant recovery mode
The refrigerant recovery mode in heating starts when all of the following three conditions are met:

TH4 > 115°C [239°F]
Frequencies below 50 Hz
Refrigerant recovery
1) Refrigerant is recovered with the LEV on the applicable indoor unit (unit under stopping mode, fan mode, cooling, heating with
thermo off) being opened for 30 seconds.
2) Periodic capacity control of the outdoor units and periodic LEV control of the indoor units will be suspended during refrigerant
recovery operation; they will be performed after the recovery has been completed.
