×
16 in. (10

40 cm) beams or equal), a
minimum of 4 in. (10 cm) above ground level to
reduce humidity and protect the unit against possible
water damage and decreased service life (Fig. 5b).

vibration and noise.
7-1-3. Baffle Plate for the Outdoor Unit
(CL
××
models only)
It is recommended to use baffle plates for models
CL1251, CL1852 and CL0951. The baffle plates are not
normally required for the other models.
When the outdoor unit is installed in a position exposed
to strong wind (like seasonal winds with low air temper-
ature in winter), baffle plates must be installed on the
outdoor unit. (Fig. 5c)
This unit is designed so that the fan of the outdoor unit
runs at low speed when the air conditioner is operated
at low outdoor air temperatures. When the outdoor unit
is exposed to strong wind, the system pressure drops
because of the freeze protector.
