distance of at least 3000 mm should be left between the top of the machine and the crown wall. If the
front, rear, left and right sides of the machine are open spaces, the distance between the top of the
machine and the crown wall should be at least 1500 mm, as shown in Figure 7. If the requirement for the
minimum 1500 mm cannot be met, or the spaces around the machine are not open, an air return pipe
needs to be connected to maintain smooth ventilation, as shown in Figure 8.

5. During the installation of the ODU, induced and exhaust pipes must be connected. In addition, the
aperture opening rate of shutters must be at least 80%, and the angle between the shutters and the
horizontal plane should be less than 20°. Requirements for installing exhaust air duct are as follows:
i. Basic requirement for connecting an ODU to static pressure ventilating duct
When an ODU needs to be connected to the static pressure ventilating duct, the ventilating duct must be
reasonably designed. The pressure loss caused by the ventilating duct must be calculated. In addition, a
proper type of ventilating duct is necessary. To connect he static pressure ventilating duct to the ODU,
three basic parts are required: (1) ODU; (2) canvas; and (3) steel-plate ventilating duct. The ODU must
be interconnected with the ventilating duct through canvas to prevent abnormal vibration and noise
generated by the steel-plate ventilating duct. The joint part must be tightly sealed with tin foil to avoid air
leakage.
ii. Preparations for connecting an ODU to static pressure ventilating duct
(1) The ODU is installed properly based on the unit installation requirement.
(2) The steel-plate ventilating duct is designed based on the unit and engineering requirement, and is
installed properly according to the engineering standards.
(3) Based on the unit dimensions and the size of steel-plate ventilating duct, prepare materials such as
canvas casing, tin foil, steel bar and tapping screw, as well as tools such as hand-operated electric drill,
air screw driver and screwdriver.
iii. Basic operation of connecting an ODU to static pressure ventilating duct
Two methods are available to connect an ODU to static pressure ventilating duct.
Method 1: Reserve the unit top case. Detailed operations are as follows:
a) Install the ODU (2) and steel-plate ventilating duct (1). Use an air screw driver or screwdriver to
unfasten the tapping screws that fixing the top case component (3), and then remove the top case
component. Take out the grille from the top of the top case component and leave the top case.
b) Put the canvas casing inside out (4). Cover one end of the canvas casing over the unit
downward until the canvas end face is aligned with the unit or a bit higher than the top of the unit. Then,
put the top case back (3) and tightly press the canvas casing (4). Use tapping screws to fix the top case
onto the unit (3).
c) Pull up the canvas casing reversely (4) and use the steel bar (5) to press the canvas casing
tightly onto the counter flange of the steel-plate ventilating duct (1). Use a hand-operated electric drill to
drill holes and fasten the parts by using tapping screws.
d) Use the tin foil to seal the joints and check the joints' reliability.

Step 3 Step 4
Step 5 Step 6
Method 2: Remove the unit top case. Detailed operations are as follows:
(1) Install the ODU (2) and steel-plate ventilating duct (1). Take out the grille from the top of the top
case component. Use the prepared canvas casing inside out (4) to cover the surroundings over
the top of the unit. Keep the top of canvas casing (4) 30 to 50 mm higher over the top of the
38
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
unit.
(2) Use a steel bar to press tightly the canvas casing (4) around the top case of the unit. Use a
hand-operated electric drill to drill holes and fasten the canvas casing onto the unit through
steel bar by using tapping screws.
(3) Pull up the canvas casing reversely and use the steel bar to press the canvas casing tightly
onto the counter flange of the steel-plate ventilating duct. Use a hand-operated electric drill to
drill holes and fasten the parts by using tapping screws.
(4) Use the tin foil to seal the joints and check the joints' reliability.
Note: Remove the grille on the top case when connecting an ODU to static pressure ventilating duct;
otherwise, the air volume, especially the unit operating performance will be affected. For method 2,
since drills are required on the top case, the powder coated protective layer on the top case will be
damaged. As a result, the anti-corrosion performance of the unit top case will be reduced.
Step 1Step 2
Step 3 Step 4
6. When the effective area of air intake is less than 70% of the total air intake area of all ODUs, an
induced draft fan is also required. The total air input of induced draft fan should be no less than 80% of
the total supply air rate.

4) The refrigerant pipe must be laid away from the manhole of the unit so that sufficient space can
be reserved for maintenance.
5) The riser should be installed in the air conditioning tube well, and the horizontal pipe should be
placed in the ceiling, if possible.
2. Processing to Refrigerant Pipes
2.1 Cut-off and Burring
Use a special-purpose pipe cutter to cut copper pipes instead of using a hacksaw.
Cut the pipes gently to ensure that the copper pipe does not deform.
55
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
After cutting the pipes, use a slicker to grater bur the pipes with the pipe opening inclining downward
so that the copper scales do not fall into the pipe.
Allowable deviation: Skewness of the cross section cannot exceed 1% of the copper pipe caliber.
If the copper pipe is not used immediately after cut-off, cover it with a sealing cap or adhesive tape.
2.2 Pipe Cleaning
Cleaning with a piece of silk cloth: Wrap a thin steel wire with a piece of clean silk cloth. Crumple the
cloth into a lump with diameter larger than the pipe calibre. Apply several drops of chlorylene to the cloth.
Push the cloth in from one end of the pipe and pull out from the other end. Every time the cloth is pulled
out, remove the dust and sundries with chlorylene. Wash repeatedly until the pipe is clean. This method
applies to straight pipes.
Cleaning with nitrogen: Blow off all dust and sundries in the pipe with nitrogen. This method applies
to coils.
After cleaning, cover the both ends of the pipe with a sealing cap or adhesive tape.
2.3 Pipe Bending
Processing methods:
Manual bending: applies to thin copper pipes (Φ6.35 mm to Φ12.7 mm)
Mechanical bending: applicable range (Φ6.35mm to Φ54.1mm)
Requirements:
The radius of the bending pipe must exceed 3.5D. The ratio of the short diameter after bending to
the original diameter must exceed 2/3.
Precautions:
During bending, there must be no corrugation or deformation inside the pipe.
The welding point of the pipe should not be at the bending part. The distance between the nozzle
welding joint and the bending part should be less than 100 mm.
2.4 Pipe Expanding
Pipe expanding is used to provide a welding point for pipe connection. Requirements on pipe
expanding are as follows:
2.4.1 All burrs and sundries inside the pipe must be cleared after cut-off.
2.4.2 Before pipe expanding, apply appropriate amount of lubricant on the surface of the pipe. (The
lubricant must meet the refrigerant system‘s requirements.)
2.4.3 Pipe expanding length must be in accordance with the insertion depth of the caliber.
2.4.4 To avoid leakage due to straight lines at the expanding point, turn round the copper pipe and
then make corrections.
2.4.5 Apply appropriate force during pipe expanding to avoid crack.
2.5 Flaring
Another mode of pipe connection is flare opening connection, which requires pipe flaring before
connection. Before pipe flaring, apply appropriate amount of lubricant on the surface of the opening to
ensure smooth pass of flaring nuts and avoid pipe distortion. (The lubricant must meet the refrigerant
system‘s requirements.) The concentricity must be ensured after pipe flaring. The sealing face must be
intact without any burr, crack, or wrinkle.
Requirements on pipe flaring are as follows:
a) End faces of the copper pipe are smooth.
b) Burrs and turnups inside the pipe opening must be cleared.
c) Install flaring nuts in the pipe before pipe flaring.
56
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
d) The flared opening must be concentric with the main pipe. No eccentricity is allowed.
e) Put the pipe into the root of the pipe expander.
f) Longitudinal cracks cannot be generated.
3. Installation of Refrigerant Pipes
3.1 Operation Sequence
The sequence for installing the refrigerant pipe is as follows:
Preparing and installing the support, hanger, and bracket – Piping according to the drawing –
Cleaning the pipe – Processing the pipe – Adding an insulation sleeve – Connecting the pipe – Fixing the
pipe – Blowing contaminants in the pipe system – Performing a air-tightness test – Performing insulation
3.2 Construction of Built-in Metal Fittings
3.2.1 Construction of supports, hangers, and brackets for pipes: These parts must be fixed securely
in reasonable type and style without any tilt. The surface is clean without any dirt. The parts embedded

I. Air-tightness Test
1. Importance of the Air-tightness Test
Air-tightness of the multi-module air conditioning system mainly refers to the tightness of the refrigerant
pipes, which ensures secure and reliable running of the air conditioner.
Refrigerant leakage may affect functions of the air conditions or even damage the compressor and make
the system to break down. Therefore, a air-tightness test must be performed. If refrigerant leakage is
detected after the system is installed, it is very difficult to locate the leaking point as the suspending
ceiling has been decorated. Therefore, the air-tightness test must be performed before ceiling sealing for
indoor decoration is finished.
2. Procedure for Performing the Air-tightness Test
Stop valves of the gas and liquid pipes of the ODU are turned off at delivery.
Before test, apply a small amount of required lubricant on the block nut and pipe terminals and use two
wrenches to fix the block nut.
The ODU pipes cannot be connected when the air-tightness test is being performed.
The test pressure for R410A system is 4.0 MPa. Use dry nitrogen as media for the air-tightness test.
Increase the pressure slowly by following the steps below:
Step 1: Increase the pressure to 0.5 MPa. Stop for 5 minutes and then perform air-tightness check. Major
leakage may be detected.
Step 2: Increase the pressure to 1.5 MPa. Stop for 5 minutes and then perform air-tightness check. Minor
leakage may be detected.
Step 3: Increase the pressure for R410A system to 4.15 MPa. Stop for 5 minutes and then perform
strength check. Slight leakage or blow holes may be detected.After increasing the pressure to the test
pressure, keep the pressure for 24 hours and check whether it decreases. If the pressure does not
decrease, it meets the requirement.
3. Precautions:
a. The measuring range of the test pressure gauge for R410A system must be above 4.5 MPa.
b. Record the value displayed on the pressure gauge, ambient temperature, and test time.
c. Pressure correction: The pressure changes by 0.01 MPa when the temperature changes by 1°C.
d. The pressure meets the requirement if it does not change.
e. If the pressure must be kept for a long time, decrease the pressure to 0.5 MPa or lower. High pressure
for a long time may cause leakage at the welding point or safety hazard.
f. Before performing the air-tightness test to the refrigerant pipes, do not conduct insulation or wrapping
at the welding or flaring opening joints of the IDU. The pressure must be increased simultaneously for
pipes on outdoor sides and cannot be increased for pipes on one side.
4. Note: Before performing the air-tightness test, do not conduct insulation or wrapping at the welding
joints.
73
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
b. Turn off the valve before powering off the vacuum pump.
c. Keep vacuuming for 2 hours. The vacuum meets the requirement if the pressure displayed by the
vacuum gauge does not increase.
d. The units parallel connected to the module and oil-equalizing pipe also need to be vacuumized.

Note:
(1) Rated capacity configuration rate C for IDUs and ODUs = Sum of rated cooling capacity of IDUs/Sum
of rated cooling capacity of ODUs
(2) If all IDUs are fresh air IDUs in GMV-NX series, the quantity of refrigerant perfused for each module
(B) is 0 kg.
Examples
Example 1:
The ODU consists of modules GMV-280WM/B-X, GMV-400WM/B-X, and GMV-450WM/B-X. The IDU
consists of 8 pieces of GMV-ND140PLS/A-T.
Rated capacity configuration rate C for IDUs and ODUs = 140 x 8/(280+400+450) = 99%. The number of
IDUs is greater than 4, according to the above table,
The quantity of refrigerant perfused for module GMV-280WM/B-X (B) is 2.0kg.
The quantity of refrigerant perfused for module GMV-400WM/B-X (B) is 3.5kg.
The quantity of refrigerant perfused for module GMV-450WM/B-X (B) is 3.5kg.
Therefore,
∑ Quantity of refrigerant perfused for each module (B) = 2.0+3.5+3.5 = 9.0 kg
Assume that the quantity of refrigerant perfused for the pipe (A) = ∑ Length of the liquid pipe x Quantity
of refrigerant perfused for the liquid pipe per meter = 25 kg
Total quantity of refrigerant perfused for the system (R) = 25+9 = 34 kg
Example 2:
The ODU consists of one GMV-450WM/B-X and the IDU consists of one fresh air IDU GMV-NX450P/A
75
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
Assume that the quantity of refrigerant perfused for the pipe (A) = ∑ Length of the liquid pipe x Quantity
of refrigerant perfused for the liquid pipe per meter = 5kg
Total quantity of refrigerant perfused for the system (R) = 5+0= 5 kg
Step 5: Turn on the valve of the high pressure gauge (while keep the valve of the high pressure gauge
turned off) and then perfuse refrigerant to the system. Record the change of weight of the
refrigerant tank.
Step 6: When all refrigerant in the refrigerant tank is perfused, record the current weight m2.
Step 7: Turn off the valve of the high pressure gauge and replace the refrigerant tank.
Step 8: Perform step 3 again.
Step 9: Perform step 5 and step 6 again. Record the weight before perfusion m3 and weight after
perfusion m4.
Step 10:If there is no sufficient refrigerant and the calculated quantity of refrigerant is not fulfilled for the
system, record the current total perfusion quantity.

GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
m=(m1-m2)+(m3-m4)+…+(mn-1-mn)
Quantity of refrigerant to be perfused during running m`=M-m
M is the required total quantity
If the pre-perfusion quantity (m) reaches the required total quantity for the system, turn off the valve of
the refrigerant tank immediately to finish perfusing and proceed with step 11.
Step 11: Remove the pressure gauge.
Step 2: Turn on the valves for the liquid and gas pipes of each module completely. For the modular unit,
the oil-equalizing valve of each module also needs to be turned on.
Step 3: Make the system to run in commissioning mode via the commissioning software or the main
board of the ODU. (For details, see the description on commissioning.)
Step 4: When the commissioning step goes to refrigerant perfusion, turn on the valve of the refrigerant
tank and perfuse the remaining quantity (m`).
Step 5: After all refrigerant is perfused, turn off valve of the refrigerant tank and wait till commissioning is
automatically is completed for the system.
Step 6: Remove the pressure gauge to finish refrigerant perfusion.

Step 19: After unit commissioning is completed, set unit functions according to the actual engineering
requirements on functions. For details about the setting method, refer to the "System Function Setting
Method" part. Skip this step if there are not special requirements.
Step 20: Deliver the unit for use and let users know the precautions.
3.2.2 Commissioning Through the Commissioning Software
Step 1: Install commissioning software to the computer and connect monitoring communication cables
(for details about the operation method, see the "GREE Central Air Conditioning Commissioning
Software" section).
Step 2: Completely cover the front panel of ODU.
Step 3: In power-off status of ODU, set the ODU to a corresponding static pressure mode according to
static pressure design requirements for outdoor engineering. For details about the setting method, see
the "Outdoor Fan Static Pressure Setting DIP Switch (SA6_ESP_S)" section.
Step 4: In power-off status of ODU, set one module of ODU to master unit. For details about the setting
method, see the "Master Unit Setting DIP Switch (SA8_MASTER-S)" section.
Step 5: Power on all outdoor and IDUs. In this case, all modules of ODU display that the unit is in
non-commissioning status.
Click "Start" to enter the commissioning function and the software automatically performs commissioning.
" " indicates that commissioning is being performed on the phase and " " indicates that
commissioning is passed on the phase.
117
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
For the phase with "OK" displayed, a manual confirmation is required for entering the next
commissioning step. Click " " to display relevant information detected on this phase, which provides
references for selection. Click "Close" to close the information (the number of commissioning units is
displayed in "3 Confirm ODU Basic Module NO." and "4 Confirm IDU NO."; the preheating period is
displayed in ―8 Compr. Preheat Confirmation").
118
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
" " indicates that commissioning is not passed on the phase and troubleshooting is required (after
troubleshooting, the unit automatically enters the next step if no "OK" exists or click "OK" to enter the
next step). Click " " to display relevant information detected on this phase, which provides references
for troubleshooting. Click "Close" to close the information.
During commissioning, click "Stop" to stop commissioning and then click "Start" to continue
commissioning till commissioning ends. "Back" and "Skip" are provided in "10 ODU Valves Check
Before Startup". When an exception occurs in step 10, click "Back" to return to step 9 and then click "OK"
in step 9 to perform commissioning again for step 10. If a U6 fault (valve exception) occurs in step 10,
users can click "Skip" to skip the fault. For other faults, "Skip" is unavailable.
119
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
Commissioning steps 11, 13, and 14 are reserved. Steps 13, 14, 15, and 16 are parallel steps (one of
the four steps will be selected according to the actual unit).
At last, engineering commissioning is completed when " " is displayed on "Project Debug
Completion".
120
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
Note: During commissioning, users must listen to the operating sound of outdoor and indoor fans and
compressors to check for exceptions.
3.4 Operations after Commissioning
Sort and save data. Make detailed records of exceptions and troubleshooting methods during
commissioning for later maintenance and query. At last, make a commissioning report and hand it over
to users.
3.5 Precautions to Let Users Know after Commissioning
Let users know where the master IDU is located and stick a label to the master IDU. Tell users that
modes of other IDUs are limited by the mode of master IDU.
An ODU that has been in power-off status for more than 24 hours should be preheated for more than
eight hours before startup to prevent damaging compressors.

2.2. Restoring AP1 Engineering Parameters to Factory Settings (This Step Is Not
Required for Original Packaged Parts)
After wiring, whatever the AP1 is a master IDU AP1 or a slave IDU AP1, the new AP1 must
be restored to factory settings. There are three methods to restore engineering parameter
settings:
① If the IDU is configured with wired control, set P35 and P36 to default values.
② If the IDU is configured with wireless control, use the special control YV1L1 to set P35
and P36 to default values.
③ If the IDU is configured with wireless control and special control, you can restore
engineering settings through the AP1 SW1 button. After AP1 is powered on, press and
hold SW1 for 5 seconds. If a tick sound is heard, release the button.
173
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
SW1
Number
Auto
Method 1: If the IDU is configured with wired control, stop the IDU (except for lock mode) and press and
hold the ―MODE‖ button for 5 seconds to enter setting mode. After setting, the ―Master‖ icon will be
highlighted and the wired control buzzer will beep once.
Method 2: If the IDU is configured with lamp board or wired control, set to fan mode, 30°C/86 °F, and
press and hold ―-‖ and ―+‖ consecutively three times within 5 seconds. The IDU and wired control will
identify it as a master IDU setting command, and show ―set master IDU success (UC)‖ (5 seconds) and
highlight the ―Master‖ icon respectively.
Method 3: If the IDU is configured with the Debugger, set the IDU to master IDU through this software.
②Troubleshoot for ―project number conflict (C5)‖
174
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
Number
Auto
If this fault occurs, the number of the new AP1 is identical to that of a unit within the network. Manually
change it to the original number of the faulty AP1 or a unique number. There are three methods to
change project number:
Method 1: If the IDU is configured with wired control, set P42 to a new project number.
Method 2: If the IDU is configured with lamp board, use the special control YV1L1 to set P42 to a new
project number.
Method 3: If the IDU is configured with the Debugger, configure a new project number through this
software.
Tip:
If there are N units within the network, the units should be numbered from N+1.
Special situation:
In some cases, the created project number is identical to that of a unit within the network. In this case,
you can use the ―one-key IDU project number reset‖ function. However, this function will cause the
project number of the entire system to be re-distributed; thus, original number will be changed. If you do
not expect this result, forbid the use of this function and replace the AP1 again.
Methods to use the ―one-key IDU project number reset‖ function:
Method 1: If the IDU is configured with wired control, set P45 to reset IDU project number through one
key function.
Method 2: If the IDU is configured with lamp board, use the special control YV1L1 to set P45 and reset
IDU project number through one key function.
Method 3: On the AP1 of the master ODU, press and hold SW5 for 10 seconds at least to clear all
project numbers of the IDUs and then redistribute project numbers. Other parameters are kept
unchanged.

(3) If there are two wired controls controlling one or multiple IDUs, perform the steps below first:
Set the wired control parameter ―P13‖ to change the address of one control to 01 (master) and that of the
other control to 02 (slave); otherwise, a CP (multiple master wired controls) fault alarm will be reported
(as shown in the figure below).

Note: All wired controls are set to master wired controls by default.
(4) If the AP1 of the master IDU is replaced,
Reset the master IDU through the wired control; otherwise, the LCD displays L7 (no master IDU). There
are two methods to set the IDU:
①In shut mode, press and hold the ―MODE‖ button for 5 seconds and set the IDU corresponding to this
wired control to a master IDU. After setting, the ―Main‖ icon is highlighted.
②Set the wired control parameter ―P10‖ to 1.
3.2. Cautions on Wired Control XK49 Replacement
To replace the wired control XK49, in addition to the preceding handling steps specific for XK46, you
should also configure access control.
(1) If the wired control does not need an access control system, set switch ―1‖ for DIP S1 at the bottom of
the wired control to digital end (neglect switch ―2‖).
(2) If the wired control needs an access control system, set switch ―1‖ for DIP S1 at the bottom of the
wired control to ON (neglect switch ―2‖) and connect the access control card interface to ports N and L or
ports VCC and GND of the wiring terminal. The following should be noted:
①Ports N and L are power interfaces of 100-240V~50/60Hz access control.
②Ports VCC and GND are power interfaces of DC 5-24V access control.
③Either of them can be selected at one time.

Step 2:
Check whether the compressor sounds sharp or rubs. Compare the sound of the faulty compressor with
that of normal ones.
Step 3:
Check whether the electric expansion valves of ODUs and the 4-way valves act, and whether the oil
return pipes and oil balance valves 1 and 2 are normal. Touch the pipelines next to the return capillary
tubes to check whether there is oil flowing.
Check method for each part:
①Electric expansion valve: This valve will reset for each power-on or power-off action. Touch the valve
and you will feel its vibration during the reset action. A crack sound will be heard as well.

②Four-way valve: While this valve is normally running, the four copper pipes connected to it will suffer
different temperature. When a unit switches to act the valve, you will feel obvious vibration and hear
sound.

GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
D – Connects to exhaust.
Watch out for scald!
Labels on the 4-way valve and their meanings: D – connects to exhaust; E – connects to IDU evaporator;
S – connects to intake of gas separator; C – connects to condenser. When the system is cooling, the
pipe at side C works at high pressure high temperature, the pipes at sides E and S work at low pressure
low temperature; when the system is heating, the pipe at side E works at high pressure high temperature,
the pipes at sides C and S work at low pressure low temperature. The pipe at side D connects to exhaust
and it is always working at high pressure high temperature. When units are starting, defrosting, or
returning oil, the valve will vibrate obviously. DO NOT touch the pipe; or, you may be scalded.
③Oil balance solenoid valve: This valve can be operated based on its state that is shown through the
monitoring software and actual situation. When this valve is opened, the coil will be heated and lubricant
at both sides of the valve flows.

Step 4:
Test the compressor drive, namely the IPM module, to see whether it is normal.
1. Disconnect the power supply. Five minutes later, remove the line of the faulty compressor.
2. Set a multimeter to gear diode. As shown in the figure below, put the black test probe to pad P (on the
left of pad U (BL)) and the red test probe to pad U (BL) (make sure the moisture proof tape is removed).
In normal cases, the multimeter should read 0.39±0.3 V. If it is ―0‖ or infinitely great, the IPM module is
faulty.
181
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
3. As shown in the figure below, put the black test probe to pad P and the red test probe to pad V (YE)
(make sure the moisture proof tape is removed). In normal cases, the multimeter should read 0.39±0.3 V.
If it is ―0‖ or infinitely great, the IPM module is faulty.
4. As shown in the figure below, put the black test probe to pad P and the red test probe to pad W (RD)
(make sure the moisture proof tape is removed). In normal cases, the multimeter should read 0.39±0.3 V.
If it is ―0‖ or infinitely great, the IPM module is faulty.
5. As shown in the figure below, put the black test probe to pad U (BL) and the red test probe to pad NU
(make sure the moisture proof tape is removed). In normal cases, the multimeter should read 0.39±0.3 V.
If it is ―0‖ or infinitely great, the IPM module is faulty.
182
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
6. As shown in the figure below, put the black test probe to pad V (YE) and the red test probe to pad NV

For GMV-400WM/B-X and GMV-450WM/B-X variable frequency units, their compressors are both
inverter compressors, differing in models. The one close to the condenser is compressor 1
―E655DHD-65D2YG‖ and the other close to the liquid separator head is compressor 2
―E405DHD-38D2YG‖. The removal procedure is basically the same.

After the compressor and oil separator are removed, check oil quality. If oils are contaminated, replace
the compressor, oil separator, and gas/liquid separator. If oil changes to black, check oils of other
modular units. The check procedure is similar to the preceding.
Note: Before replacing the faulty compressors, make sure to block their openings with tapes. They
should be kept intact for further analysis.

After the gas separator is taken out, check whether it contains impurities. The check procedure is as
follows:
Use a glass container to hold the liquid. Check liquid impurities and colours and block the container for
further factory inspection.
※ Note: If the compressor needs replacement, the gas/liquid separator needs replacement as
well, regardless whether the separator contains impurities or has faults or not.

193
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
For other pipeline parts, clear them based on actual situation. If you do not replace the parts immediately,
make sure to block the pipes with tapes, preventing air moistures and impurities from contaminating
them.
Step 7: Preparations.
1. Prepare new parts.
In the course of moving compressors, do not lay them down or put them upside down. The tilt angle
should be less than 30°. Make sure oil will not overflow from the oil balance opening. The inlet and outlet
194
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
should be blocked. If the sealing rubber is not available, cover them with tape to prevent direct contact of
oil and air.
The rubbers
used for
blocking the
inlet and outlet
of compressors
must be intact
Note: The new compressor must be consistent with the faulty one in model.
Warning
Prevention against electric shock
Turn power off before servicing. Use this compressor on a grounded system only.
AND-NOT
Prohibition
Check the rubbers for oil separator, gas separator, oil balancer, and drying filter. If they are lost during
transportation, cover the parts with tape to keep the compressor dry and airtight inside.
195
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
The sealing
rubbers for
various parts
must be intact
Note: Compressor lubricant must be kept completely airtight. Hitachi compressors use special
lubricant FVC68D whose moisture absorption capability is high. Requirements on air-tightness
of these compressors are higher.
2. Prepare other materials.
(1) Prepare nitrogen. Prepare enough nitrogen. They will be used during welding. Nitrogen pressure
should be 2.0 MPa at least.
(2) Prepare welding rods. In addition to ordinary welding rods, you should also prepare special welding
rods (containing 5% or more silver). Compressors‘ inlets and outlets are made of copper plated steels,
which require special welding rods and materials.
(3) Prepare gases for welding. Oxygen and acetylene of proper amount should be determined with
consideration of actual welding positions. Try to finish the welding task once. Avoid repeated welding.
(4) Prepare tools, including hexagon, diagonal pliers, combination pliers, needle nose pliers, multimeter,
pressure gauge, Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, wrenches (at least two), PVC insulation tape,
and tielines (multiple).

Note: Keep wiring identical to factory installation. Control varies with compressors. Wrong
wiring or inverse connection of the compressors may cause damage to units.
Cautions on replacement of compressors:
1) Before installing new compressors, remove the sealing rubbers and weld the compressors with
corresponding pipes. During welding, charge nitrogen into the pipes. Since compressors‘ suction
and discharge pipes are made of copper plated steels, you need to prepare special welding rods
(containing 5% or more silver). Welding clearance should be controlled within 0.1~0.3mm, avoiding
blockage or loose welding. During welding, control pipe openings from being over-heated.
2) After the pipeline system is welded, use special supports and bolts to fix the compressors, ensuring
stability of the compressors during running.
3) Power lines of the compressors should be wired following the factory installation. You can refer to
the wiring diagram. Phase sequence error and inverse connection of compressors are not allowed.
In particular, if there are two inverter compressors GMV-400WM/B-X and GMV-450WM/B-X that
need replacement, pay attention to wiring. Control varies with compressors. Inverse connection of
the compressors may cause damage to units.
※ While determining system pressure change, take temperature into consideration. For 1°C
temperature change, pressure will change by 0.01 MPa accordingly. Suppose that nitrogen pressure
reaches 2.5 MPa at 30°C, 12 hours later, temperature decreases to 25°C and pressure decreases to
2.43 MPa accordingly. The system is regarded qualified despite the pressure decrease.
6) After a required amount of lubricant is added, close the oil checking valve to ensure tightness.

2. If the refrigerant is proved satisfactory, fill refrigerant of the combined amount of the rated amount
(specified on the nameplate) and the calculated refrigerant loss amount.
For a multi-modular unit system, if only the refrigerant of an ODU is drawn out, add 80% refrigerant of
the rated fill amount (specified on the nameplate of the ODU) and start the system for a debugging test.
Step 16: Install electric parts.
Install the electric box and connect various parts to the electric box by referring to the marks made
beforehand and the wiring diagram on the back of the box. Wire the compressors and corresponding
electric heating belts.
Note: Wires should be checked against the wiring diagram beforehand so that they can be
connected correctly.
Step 17: Start for debugging.
Start the units and set them to run in refrigerating full-start, refrigerating single-start, heating full-start,
and heating single-start modes respectively. Duration for each running mode should be 30 minutes at
least. After the debug, analyze data and adjust the unit system, to ensure indexes of the entire system.
For details about each index, please consult after-sale persons and technicians.
3. Disconnect all lines of the compressor drive, including: compressor line; communication line
between the master unit and the drive; communication line between the compressor drive and fan
drive; compressor drive output 18 VDC; bridge rectifier output P; bridge rectifier output N;
compressor drive output 540 VDC; reactor‘s wiring terminal; bridge rectifier input AC inlead;

5. Using Debugger
5.1 Major Functions
5.1.1 One-Click Engineering Debug
Engineering debug personnel can use this software to debug units based on engineering debug logic by
one-click operation. The minute you deliver a debug command through the software, units begin
automatic debug step by step. When the units pass debug of a step, the step is automatically checked
green. If they fail this step, it will be checked red.
5.1.2 All-Round Monitor and Health Analysis
All-round monitor on the air conditioning systems, including functions, devices, and parts is supported.
Intuitive and clear display facilitates users to understand running of the entire systems and units.
5.1.3 Real-Time Control and Running Mode Adjustment
Air conditioner operation time and requirement on the air conditioners vary with geographical locations.
Users can adjust parameters of air conditioning units through a PC based on the actual situation of an
area, including start/stop, temperature, airflow speed, and mode. Gree Debugger also enables users to
set and query parameters for ODUs and gateways.
5.1.4 Other Functions
Gree Debugger also instructs users to connect units, and allows users to capture screens, open
database files, rebuild database, and modify database file saving path.

Do not touch the input port of the power supply when the gateway is energized.
Modbus gateway is recommended to install near air conditioning units so as to shorten their
communication distance. The maximum allowable communication distance of them is 500 m. For
the communication distance between Modbus gateway and Gree CAC Remote Monitoring
System/BMS system, we can use optoelectronic isolated repeaters for expansion.
The power lines and communication lines of Modbus gateways should be laid separately; otherwise,
Modbus gateways may become faulty. In the preceding figure, the thin dotted line indicates
communication lines and the thick dotted line indicates strong current lines; they are for reference
only.
Control cabinets should be designed to satisfy Modbus gateways both in number and layout as well
276
GMV5 DC INVERTER VRF UNITS SERVICE MANUAL
as location.
Each Modbus gateway should be supplied with power independently. Therefore, you should install
as many 220V AC power sockets as possible in the control cabinet. It is not allowed to connect
multiple Modbus gateways to a same power socket.
Make sure to keep at least 15 cm between communication lines and strong current lines. It is
forbidden to bind them together. If their distance is less than 15 cm, put them into shield tubes
respectively to prevent electromagnetic disturbance.
The control cabinet must be installed indoors. Avoid knock or exposure to sunshine or rain. It should
be locked as well to avoid body contact.
1.4.2.3 Communication System Installation
The Modbus gateway works to get through the communication

The RS485 bus should be terminated with a matched resistance to avoid signal reflex along the
transmission line.
In application of the Modbus gateway, an upper unit as the terminal unit is usually coupled with a RS485
matched resistance, so this gateway is factory defaulted to be without a matched resistance.
When the Modbus gateway is required to be set with a matched resistance, the seventh position of this
DIP switch should be set as shown in the figure above to ―0‖ and the gateway should be located at the

In the network above, L3 is the line for RJ45; L2 and L1 are the twisted pair line.
Notes: the total length of L2 cannot exceed 500m and a matched resistance shall be added at
both ends.
4.4.2 How to Configure the Gateway
Note: Before configuring BACnet, download JRE or JDK from the Oracle website first, which will
assist you in configuring BACnet via a browser.
One BACnet gateway can connect up to 8 ODUs and 48 IDUs (that is, when the IDUs are more than 48
or the ODUs are more than 8, another gateway will be required). Specific relation exists between the air
conditioning units and the gateway and there is always a minimal IDU number and a minimal ODU
number for a gateway. Suppose the minimal IDU number is M, then all IDUs will be numbered among M
to M+47. Suppose the minimal IDU number is N, then all IDUs will be numbered among N to N+7. During
field installation, when only IDUs or ODUs are present for a gateway, then it will fail to process the data
from them.
The gateway shall be configured after its installation, however, before this please set the IP address of
the PC the same with that of the BACnet gateway. See Appendix A for more details.
(1) Open the IE browser and input the default IP address http://192.168.1.150 into the address field.
(2) The default username and password are both ―Config‖.
After input, press the ―ENTER‖ button to go to the setting page as shown below. The configurable objects
include the minimum IDU number, the minimum ODU number, CAN IP, BACnet IP address, subnet mask,
and gateway address. Then, click the ―Confirm‖ button.
