Key components:
1. Oil separator:
Separates oil from gas refrigerant pumped out of the compressor and quickly returns it to the compressor. Separation
efficiency is up to 99%.
2. Accumulator:
Stores liquid refrigerant and oil to protect compressor from liquid hammering.
3. Electronic expansion valve (EXV):
Controls refrigerant flow and reduces refrigerant pressure.
4. Four-way valve:
Controls refrigerant flow direction. Closed in cooling mode and open in heating mode. When closed, the heat
exchanger functions as a condenser; when open, the heat exchanger functions as an evaporator.
5. Plate heat exchanger:
In cooling mode, it can improve super-cooling degree and the super-cooled refrigerant can achieve better heat
exchange in indoor side. In heating mode, the refrigerant comes from the plate heat exchanger going to the

Part 2 - Component Layout and Refrigerant Circuits


compressor can enhance the refrigerant enthalpy and improve the heating capacity in low ambient temperature.
Refrigerant volume in plate heat exchanger is controlled according to temperature different between plate heat
exchanger inlet and outlet.
6. Solenoid valve SV4:
Returns oil to the compressor. Opens once the compressor has run for 200 seconds and closes 600 seconds later and
then opens for 3 minutes every 20 minutes.
7. Solenoid valve SV5:
Enables fast defrosting in heating mode and unloading in cooling mode. During defrosting operation, opens to
shorten the refrigerant flow cycle and quicken the defrosting process. In cooling mode, SV5 opens when outdoor
ambient temperature is above 40oC or compressor frequency is below 41Hz.
8. Solenoid valve SV6:
Allows refrigerant to bypass the expansion valves. Opens in cooling mode when discharge temperature exceeds the
limit. Closed in heating mode and standby.
9. Solenoid valve SV7:
Allows refrigerant to return directly to the compressor. Opens when indoor air temperature is close to the set
temperature to avoid frequent compressor on/off.
10. Solenoid valve SV8A / SV8B:
Allows refrigerant from plate heat exchanger inject directly to the compressor. SV8A opens when compressor A
startup and closes when compressor A stop. SV8B delays opening when compressor B startup and closes when
compressor B stop.
11. Solenoid valve SV9:
Balances compressor B pressure. Opens before compressor B startup and closed after compressor B running for 15
seconds. Opens after compressor B stops 10s and keep opening 60s.
12. High and low pressure switches:
Regulate system pressure. When system pressure rises above the upper limit or falls below the lower limit, the high or
low pressure switches turn off, stopping the compressor. After 10 minutes, the compressor restarts.

2 Stop Operation
The stop operation occurs for one of the three following reasons:
1. Abnormal shutdown: in order to protect the compressors, if an abnormal state occurs the system makes a 'stop with
thermo off' operation and an error code is displayed on the outdoor unit digital displays.
2. The system stops when the set temperature has been reached.
3. A unit stops when the load demanded by the indoor units decreases and can be handled by fewer outdoor units.

When a unit stops because the load demanded by the indoor units has decreased and can be handled by fewer outdoor
units, the unit's four-way valve remains on until the load demanded by the indoor units increases and the unit is required
to operate. When the whole system stops, all the units' four-way valves turn off.

3 Standby Control
3.1 Crankcase Heater Control
The crankcase heater is used to prevent refrigerant from mixing with compressor oil when the compressors are stopped.
The crankcase heater is controlled according to outdoor ambient temperature and discharge temperature. When the

4 Startup Control
4.1 Compressor Startup Delay Control
In initial startup control, compressor startup is delayed for 12 minutes in order to let the master unit search for the indoor
units’ addresses. In restart control (except in oil return operation and defrosting operation), compressor startup is delayed
such that a minimum of 7 minutes has elapsed since the compressor stopped, in order to prevent frequent compressor
on/off and to equalize the pressure within the refrigerant system.

5.2 Compressor Output Control
The compressor rotation speed is controlled according to the load requirement. Before compressor startup, the outdoor
units first estimate the indoor unit load requirement according to the nominal capacity of indoor units currently running,
and then correct for ambient temperature. The compressors then start up according to the corrected load requirement.

During operation the compressors are controlled according to the nominal capacity of indoor units currently running and
the indoor unit heat exchanger temperatures. If the actual load requirement can be provided by one unit alone, then only
one unit starts up. If the actual load requirement requires all outdoor unit modules to operate, the weighted average
actual load requirement is sent to each module and each module operates according to this distributed load
requirement.

5.3 Compressor Step Control


The running speed of the compressors in rotations per second (rps) is one third of the frequency (in Hz) of the electrical
input to the compressor motors. The compressor speed can be altered in increments of 1 rps.

5.4 Operating Priority and Rotation of Compressors


Figures 3-5.1 to 3-5.4 show the compressor operating priority and rotation in systems with one, two, three and four
outdoor units. In units with two compressors, inverter compressor A (BP1) operates in priority to inverter compressor B
Midea V6 Series Service Manual

(BP2). In multi-unit systems, units operate in rotation. In Figures 3-5.2 to 3-5.4 the master unit and slave units 1, 2 and 3
are shown from left to right in that order, and the circled numbers (①, ②, ③, ④) indicate the rotation sequence.

1.2 Modes Set on Main PCB
1.2.1 Priority mode setting
Priority mode can only be set on the master unit. When an indoor unit is in mode conflict with the outdoor units the unit
displays the mode conflict error. If the indoor unit has a digital display, it will display error code E0; if the indoor unit
display board has LED indicators, the “DEF./FAN” LED will flash rapidly.
Figure 4-1.2: Indoor unit digital displays and LED indicators

Digital display DEF./FAN LED

There are five priority mode options:


1. Auto priority mode (default): In auto priority mode, the outdoor unit will operate in heating priority mode or cooling
priority mode according to the outdoor ambient temperature.
a) When the outdoor ambient temperature is below 13oC, the outdoor units run in heating priority mode. The
heating priority mode does not change until the outdoor ambient temperature is above 18oC.
b) When the outdoor ambient temperature is above 18oC, the outdoor units run in cooling priority mode. The
Midea V6 Series Service Manual

cooling priority mode does not change until the outdoor ambient temperature is below 13oC.
c) When the outdoor units restart under the outdoor ambient between 13oC and 18oC, the outdoor units run the
same priority as before the last stop.
d) When the outdoor unit is initial startup under outdoor ambient temperature between 13oC and 18oC, the
outdoor units run in heating priority mode.

1.1. Heating priority mode:


a) During cooling operation: If an indoor unit requests heating, the outdoor units stop and then restart in heating
mode after 5 minutes. Indoor units requesting heating then start in heating mode and indoor units requesting
cooling display the mode conflict error.
b) During heating operation: If an indoor unit requests cooling, the outdoor units ignore the request and continue
to run in heating mode. The indoor unit requesting cooling displays the mode conflict error. If all the indoor units
requesting heating are later turned off and one or more indoor units are still requesting cooling, the outdoor
units restart in cooling mode after 5 minutes and any indoor units requesting cooling then start in cooling mode.
1.2. Cooling priority mode:
a) During heating operation: If an indoor unit requests cooling, the outdoor units stop and then restart in cooling
mode after 5 minutes. Indoor units requesting cooling then start in cooling mode and indoor units requesting
heating display the mode conflict error.
b) During cooling operation: If an indoor unit requests heating, the outdoor units ignore the request and continue
to run in cooling mode. The indoor unit requesting heating displays the mode conflict error. If all the indoor units
requesting cooling are later turned off and one or more indoor units are still requesting heating, the outdoor
units restart in heating mode after 5 minutes and any indoor units requesting heating then start in heating

2. Cooling priority mode: refer to above “1.2. Cooling priority mode” descriptions.
3. VIP priority mode or voting priority mode: The default VIP address is 63, the VIP address also can be changed
through menu mode, refer to Part 5, 1.2.3 “Menu mode” Table 5-1.3 “nb8”. If the VIP indoor unit is operating, the
outdoor units operate in the mode of the VIP indoor unit. Indoor units that are in a mode different to that of the VIP
unit display the mode conflict error. If there is no unit with VIP address or the VIP unit is in standby, the outdoor units
operate in voting priority mode. In voting priority mode, the outdoor units operate in whichever of heating and
cooling modes is being requested by the larger number of indoor units.
4. Heating only mode: The outdoor units only operate in heating mode. Indoor units requesting heating operate in
heating mode. Indoor units requesting cooling or in fan only mode display the mode conflict error.
5. Cooling only mode: The outdoor units only operate in cooling mode. Indoor units requesting cooling operate in
cooling mode; indoor units in fan only mode operate in fan only mode. Indoor units requesting heating display the
mode conflict error.

Part 6 - Diagnosis and Troubleshooting


Replace outdoor main PCB

Notes:
1. The A, B, C terminals of the 3-phase power supply should match compressor phase sequence requirements. If the phase sequence is inverted, the
compressor will operate inversely. If the wiring connection of each outdoor unit is in A, B, C phase sequence, and multiple units are connected, the current
difference between C phase and A, B phases will be very large as the power supply load of each outdoor unit will be on C phase. This can easily lead to
tripped circuits and terminal wiring burnout. Therefore if multiple units are to be used, the phase sequence should be staggered, so that the current is
distributed among the three phases equally.
2. Loose power supply terminals can cause the compressors to operate abnormally and compressor current to be very large.

2.15.12 Compressor replacement procedure Figure 6-2.8: Draining oil from a compressor
Step 1: Remove faulty compressor and remove oil
 Remove the faulty compressor from the outdoor unit.
 Before removing the oil, shake the compressor so as to not allow
impurities to remain settled at the bottom.
 Drain the oil out of the compressor and retain it for inspection.
Normally the oil can be drained out from the compressor discharge
pipe.

Step 2: Inspect oil from faulty compressor


 The oil should be clear and transparent. Slightly yellow oil is not an indication of any problems. However, if the oil is
dark, black or contains impurities, the system has problems and the oil needs to be changed. Refer to Figure 5-4.16
for further details regarding inspecting compressor oil. (If the compressor oil has been spoiled, the compressor will
not be being lubricated effectively. The scroll plate, crankshaft and bearings will wear. Abrasion will lead to a larger
load and higher current. More electric energy will get dissipated as heat and the temperature of the motor will
become increasingly high. Finally, compressor damage or burnout will result.)

Step 3: Check oil in other compressors in the system


Midea V6 Series Service Manual

 If the oil drained from the faulty compressor is clean, go to Step 6.


 If the oil drained from the faulty compressor is only lightly spoiled, go to Step 4.
 If the oil drained from the faulty compressor is heavily spoiled, check the oil in the other compressors in the system.
Drain the oil from any compressors where the oil has been spoiled. Go to Step 4.

Step 4: Replace oil separator(s) and accumulator(s)


 If the oil from a compressor is spoiled (lightly or heavily), drain the oil from the oil separator and accumulator in that
unit and then replace them.

Step 5: Check filters(s)


 If the oil from a compressor is spoiled (lightly or heavily), check the filter between the gas stop valve and the 4-way
valve in that unit. If it is blocked, clean with nitrogen or replace.

Step 6: Replace the faulty compressor and re-fit the other compressors Figure 6-2.9: Compressor piping

 Replace the faulty compressor.


 If the oil had been spoiled and was drained from the non-faulty compressors
in Step 3, use clean oil to clean them before re-fitting them into the units. To
clean, add oil into the compressor through the discharge pipe using a funnel,
Discharge pipe
shake the compressor, and then drain the oil. Repeat several times and then
re-fit the compressors into the units. (The discharge pipe is connected to the Inner oil
balance
oil pool of the compressor by the inner oil balance pipe.) pipe

Step 7: Add compressor oil


 Add 1.2L of oil to the new compressor through the discharge pipe, using a
funnel.
 Add 1.2L of oil to each of the compressors from which oil was drained in Step 3.
 Only use FV68H oil. Different compressors require different types of oil. Using the wrong type of oil leads to various
problems.
 Add additional oil to the accumulators such that the total amount of oil is 5L in 8-12HP units, 6L in 14-16HP units 7L in
18-22HP units, 9L in 24-28HP units and 10L in 30-32HP units.
106
V6 VRF 50Hz
Step 8: Vacuum drying and refrigerant charging
 Once all the compressors and other components have been fully connected, vacuum dry the system and recharge
refrigerant. Refer to the V6 Engineering Data Book, Part 3.

Notes:
1. An indoor load that is too large causes suction and discharge temperatures to be higher than normal. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4
and 6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
2. Excess refrigerant causes discharge temperature to be lower than normal, discharge pressure to be higher than normal and suction pressure to be higher
than normal. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and 6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
3. Air or nitrogen in the system causes discharge temperature to be higher than normal, discharge pressure to be higher than normal, compressor current to
be higher than normal, abnormal compressor noise and an unsteady pressure meter reading. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and 6-3.5
in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
4. In cooling mode check outdoor heat exchangers, fans and air outlets for dirt/blockages. In heating mode check indoor heat exchangers, fans and air outlets
for dirt/blockages.
5. High pressure side blockage causes discharge temperature to be higher than normal, discharge pressure to be higher than normal and suction pressure to
be lower than normal. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and 6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
6. Set a multi-meter to buzzer mode and test any two terminals of P N U V W of the inverter module. If the buzzer sounds, the inverter module has
short-circuited.
7. The normal resistances of the inverter compressor are 0.7-1.5Ω among U V W and infinite between each of U V W and ground. If any of the resistances
differ from these specifications, the compressor has malfunctioned.

Notes:
1. Compressor top temperature sensor and discharge pipe temperature sensor connections are ports CN4 and CN5 on the main PCB (labeled 3 and 4,
respectively, in Figure 5-2.1 in Part 5, 2.1 “Ports”). The discharge temperature switch connection is port CN19 on the main PCB (labeled 2 in Figure 5-2.1 in
Part 5, 2.1 “Ports”).
2. Measure sensor resistance. If the resistance is too low, the sensor has short-circuited. If the resistance is not consistent with the sensor’s resistance
characteristics table, the sensor has failed. Refer to Table 6-3.2 in Part 6, 3.1 “Temperature Sensor Resistance Characteristics”.
3. An insufficiency of refrigerant causes compressor discharge temperature to be higher than normal, discharge and suction pressures to be lower than
normal and compressor current to be lower than normal, and may cause frosting to occur on the suction pipe. These issues disappear once sufficient
refrigerant has been charged into the system. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and 6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of
Refrigerant System”.
4. A low pressure side blockage causes compressor discharge temperature to be higher than normal, suction pressure to be lower than normal and
compressor current to be lower than normal, and may cause frosting to occur on the suction pipe. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and
6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
5. An indoor load that is too large causes suction and discharge temperatures to be higher than normal. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4
and 6-3.5 in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.
6. Air or nitrogen in the system causes discharge temperature to be higher than normal, discharge pressure to be higher than normal, compressor current to
be higher than normal, abnormal compressor noise and an unsteady pressure meter reading. For normal system parameters refer to Table 6-3.4 and 6-3.5
in Part 6, 3.2 “Normal Operating Parameters of Refrigerant System”.

Under the following conditions, the operating parameters given in Tables 5-5.4 and 5-5.5 should be observed:
 The master outdoor unit can detect all the indoor units.
 The number of indoor units displayed on DSP2 is steady and is equal to the actual number of indoor units installed.
 All stop valves are open and all indoor unit EXVs are connected to their unit’s PCB.
 If the combination ratio is 100% or less, all the indoor units are currently running and if the combination ratio is more
than 100%, indoor units with total capacity equal to the total capacity of the outdoor units are currently running.
 If the outdoor ambient temperature is high, the system is being run in cooling mode with the following settings:
temperature 17°C; fan speed high.
 If the outdoor ambient temperature is low, the system is being run in heating mode with the following settings:
temperature 30°C; fan speed high.
 The system has been running normally for more than 30 minutes.
